COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[sir baconface]

They take it seriously in North Korea, you get infected they shoot you.

Double bubble. You don’t count in the Covid-19 death stats if cause of death is a bullet.

(Not that we’d believe any stats coming from that country.)

The BBC leading with a story about how much the coronavirus affects women.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-51705199

Whereas the true story is that the coronavirus death rates are 71% men and 29% women. They just can't stop hammering usless points home to push their warped narrative.

Its discussing the social and economic implications not the virus directly. There has been a big spike in reported domestic violence cases in France for example. For women (or even men) getting battered around is not a useless point or a warped narrative. Did you actually read the article or did you just go with your ill informed prejudices?

I don't know about anyone else but I just cannot sleep at night. I am one of life's little worriers anyhow and this has added a great weight on my shoulders.
I'm one of the many who are are working from home but I'm finding it hard to concentrate on work with so little sleep.
Like everyone I wish we could put the clocks a year forward, let alone an hour:(

@Chippy_boy what’s your take on Sweden’s approach at the moment ?

I had this for 4-5 nights a couple weeks ago - I’m ok now, stick through it and stay positive

I think the lack of sleep makes everything seem worse, but thank you and yes, positive thinking, I'm setting up Skype later, with my nephew, who I miss so much, so I think that will do me a world of good.

I read it, it's warped as are most stories by the bbc.

The problem with that suggestion is legislation. Remember the UK is not a dictatorship.

There are some on here who already believe we are living in a police state. A common mistake by those who have never lived in a police state.

Spot on - I’m waiting for North Korean numbers to be quoted on here soon

North Korea will be fine because hardly any fucker is allowed in and out!
