I have no idea why they become prime target nos 1. It's not like you can pan fry them ?
Back in the day we used cut up newspaper applied in an outside shitter. I actually think that this is the main problem we have in soceity today in that kids don't know there born! Python sketch anyone.
Used to wipe my arse on a dot leaf when I was caught short outside as a kid.

If I was panic buying, it would be tinned spam all the way. Lasts forever that stuff. I think they found a can from the 1950’s recently that was still edible!
 
Graph shown tonight. Seems to suggest the R number is reducing but that can’t be right, can it?

I can't see why not, but above 1 infections are still increasing, which is probably why we're still getting >20k infections daily.

At 1.1 to 1.3 (so lets say 1.2)

10 people infect 12 people, 12 infect 14.5, 14.5 infect 17.3, who infect 20.7, who infect 24.9.

Make that 100 people, or 1000, or 10000, so 10000 are infecting 12000 etc etc.

The level of infection seems to have levelled off in the early 20000 for now, it's not under control yet but not it's not rapidly increasing, but it's better.

If you look at other european countries, some have a horrific rise, I think Italy has trebled in 10 days, Germany similar, suggesting their R is much higher than ours currently.

We've always got spam in, you can make all kinds of stuff with it, makes a nice salad, omelette, risotto, sandwiches, to even frying it. It might not be the most healthy thing, but it's good to have in if there are shortages, and it lasts for years as you say.

James may found one in a cabin while he was filming in the antarctic for top gear.
It was dated 77 i think.
He opened it and ate it, thus proving 2 things here.
1. You're correct
2. James may is an idiot

Cases leveling off the last few days based on the figures, Last week they were saying 100000 cases a day. tonight Valance halved that and said 50000 a day. Good job they dont have to go to the public and get this idea voted thru, i think it would be a very close call.
 
Agree with the second half but no way could we continue. Its just not working. And the longer we wait to take decisive action, the worse all those issues become.

The problem is the govt isn't acting on trackand trace which we absolutely have to sort out to avoid bouncing straight back to another lockdown when this one is relaxed. There's no other way.
i dissagree, early signs indicate cases are already levelling off.
 
No no no it is not. Nor do you follow through after the throat one.
No way is the throat one worse. I have to have it every 2 years piece of piss no sedative required and only lasts 15mins. The arse one however is grim. The preparation stuff you have to take before it is horrific and you darent be more than 5 seconds from a toilet

That 100000 was the top end of the estimate of 1 study, there were several others mostly much lower, 50000 seems about the average of all, so it's not unreasonable to go with that number, they are only studies, and based on a whole range of things, some are just computer models, the best study is the ONS as it has actual tests of people who are selected randomly, and will pick up asymptomatic cases.
