try keeping two meters apart in our transit van

This is what I'm getting at Gordon it's impossible a lot of the time but here's hoping.

No it’s isn’t. I’m asking if that’s what you’re saying.

If it’s not then explain why you said “sadly”?

No.

And people with access to better healthcare tend to live longer than those who don't.
I'm assuming that wealthy people have better access.
Sorry if finding that sad offends.

And just to clarify having a dig at the Nhs was never my intention.

I didn’t even know @gordondaviesmoustache had a printer.

I would have put a comma between ‘cure’ and ‘humans’.

I hope Charlie keeps a blog and lets us know how successful his favourite homeopathy is.

That's their problem.

I’ll tell that to those who have lost loved ones elsewhere in the world, or those who’s businesses have gone under or those elderly people who have to further isolate themselves from the world and become more lonely.

I get it though Vic, you can’t criticise the Chinese government for literally lying about the virus and being the ones that have caused a pandemic but you can about the UK government of being slow and unclear once it’s arrived here.

The uk has conducted 90k tests with just over 8k being positive. Bearing in mind the vast majority of those will be for the hospitalized it doesn’t suggest that anywhere near 50% of the population has it or had it. Maybe in two years it might be the case but not anytime soon.

Current thinking is that UK cases represent those who are ill enough to require at least a medical check up or 8% of those with at least moderate symptoms. Those who have it without showing any symptoms or just have a slight sore throat or cough could be a huge figure. Indeed, the testing from Iceland where they tested the whole population suggests this could be a truely enormous figure.

The Chinese are not responsible for the way the outbreak is being managed in the UK.

 

[give it to gordon]

reminds me of the bloke outside Maine Road !

The Chinese government (different to the population let’s be clear) are responsible for it being here in the first place though.

Why aren’t more people outraged that they lied to the WHO in as late as January, when we now know they had thousands of cases of this highly contagious virus, that is ruining and ending lives.
