COVID-19 — Coronavirus

I don't see anything opening anytime soon. Nadine Dorries let the cat out of the bag by saying as much, that until a vaccine is created we remain locked down. When this was greeted with alarm she backtracked a bit.

We , or anybody else for that matter aren’t staying locked down until we have a vaccine.

I read all the posts mate. You were very aggressive, which was unwarranted imo. I do not want to tip the bin men, but have no problem with anybody who does

Why drag this up again? I was aggressive or defensive if you want the real truth back to people who kept changing their posts to suit a narrative that was not part of the original quotes.

The fact of the matter is I spent far longer being defensive to other people who kept jumping in than to the original poster who I would suggest my last involvement with was some 12 hours ago.

Let it go.

How will you know who has it to steer clear of when they reopen everything, we like to call them secret carriers, who are the biggest dangers, no symptoms, no self isolating and spreading as they go about their business.

I mean, I could be one and that would be terrible in my line of work, dangerous even.

I thought that. But as Gelsons Dad points out that loads of dudes have had it,but put no pressure on the NHS. So we are near herd immunity ie. it will be like the flu, most of us have immunity. And the a vaccine follows, given enough time

Well. Guess we’ll truely see how America gets on with herd immunity

Before the virus I was a fat disabled twat who`s best form of energy would be to get a round of drinks in.Since having to stay in and only having 1 night at home with a few beers,I have now gone from 17st 02 lbs to 16st 01 lb.
However the biggest change for me is finally doing some exercise in doors and feeling a lot fitter.I have in my wardrobe some 30+ shirts/tops which havn`t fit me for over 3-4 years.Only tried 3 of them on and wow,delighted that my gut doesn`t make me look like Jim Royle in his tight vest.
Set a target of getting down to 14st 00lb. Not over by a long shot but hell getting rid of 7 bags of sugar has given me the impetus in reaching my goal.

Well done mate, keep it up.

Just read the Italian science paper re Covid. It's huge and so much detail. Respect for their scientists for making it available. So much to learn...

What was the gist mate.

She's saying that because there is no evidence for this virus because no one has examined this yet. It would be extremely unusual for there to be no immunity.

WHO is not promoting antibody testing for political reasons. They are going to be embarrassed again as the data comes in.

Would those "political" reasons be financial?

Unusual maybe but dangerous to just assume that it will follow other viruses in terms of immunity,it just might not be the game changer on the scale that we hoped
