COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[Gabriel]

Underlying condition could be anything, that’s the worry. People have died with high blood pressure, diabetes and lots with no health problems at all

It’s awful

Fully agree. Any of us could be walking around unknowingly with underlying conditions, and even healthy people have succumbed. Our ignorance of the virus seems only to be matched by our misguided belief in our own indestructibility.

More and more people flouting the rules again this weekend. Started noticing it on my way into work this week and it's getting worse and worse.

Someone on here told me it wasn't the case but it is definitely getting worse. Roads are busy, some parks are busy, some public spaces are busy.

Selfish people who can't stay at home, not even hit the peak yet!

People are allowed outside mate..... I've just done a 20 mile ride around London and was on the lookout for people being dickheads and for the most part people were in maximum pairs of 2, and keeping distance.

We record deaths in hospitals and are starting to report about community,the death toll is higher

(Dodged the question a bit i feel)

Think he doesn't want us to think there killing the oaps off,even if they are..

Yes it was specific question about a situation of not testing them so not counting them,i think the briefing have been pretty honest so far but not on that question,as i have been saying it a grey area

Who’s killing them off , you think it’s somebody's policy ?

Well the herd immunity approach we openly started with did hang the old and vulnerable out to dry some what,protecting them came much later on,the facts are they would have done several models with different outcomes and had to choose,hard choices are made every day in the nhs in normal times let alone now

So, confidentially, you posted it on here.

It’s still confidential as no one knows who I’m talking about and this is a mostly anonymous forum.

You’re a strange bloke Vic.

Who’s killing them off , you think it’s somebody's policy ?

Well it's been said,that a certain age group won't be treated/ respirator even won't be taken to hospitals
No help for care homes,and they haven't been classing there deaths as there not in hospital,if out off say 700 deaths 500 were oaps every day I would be very concerned worked all there lives and get fked off ,yet some fking slag 6kids to 6 different guys never worked gets looked after.

On the other end of nature

A couple in India have named their twins born amid the global coronavirus pandemic Corona and Covid.

The siblings - a girl and a boy - were born to Preeti and Vinay Verma in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh on 27 March during the ongoing nationwide lockdown, according to NDTV.

"The delivery happened after facing several difficulties and therefore, my husband and I wanted to make the day memorable," the twins' 27-year-old mother told news agency Press Trust of India.

I wonder what age you can change your name in india !

Can’t speak for care homes anywhere else but the 2 near me went into lockdown about 3 weeks before the rest of them, No visitors deliveries left at the door. Even so the policy may have been wrong but it wasn’t intentionally to kill people. the poster said, they are killing oaps off’ like it was a policy.
