COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[purplenose]

The fat clueless turd certainly likes to keep his audience guessing

Perhaps he is going to give us a little song or a dance, or perhaps just doing his usual magic trick which involves producing record amounts of bullshit and hot air from one human being.

Boris on at 5 pm.

FFS I've had a great couple of days enjoying 'merica's system being mental and now he's back on my TV.

 

[Healdplace]

Italy 34, 505 cases and 445 deaths yesterday.

This is not just us.

 

[Healdplace]

Second time this week that same message.

Though it seems not to be on there now.

Thank God the people running this (gov.uk) are only running the Covid web site and not the country.

Um.....

 

[Healdplace]

Boris's watch has stopped again. Or maybe he is operated by the same software as the web site and his numbers are delayed too.

 

[purplenose]

Boris on at 5 pm.

Late again, must be having difficulty in memorising all the fibs he has too tell.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

I see the U.K. statistics authority have had a few things to say today. Not sure who it could be about though......

In the context of the pandemic there are three things which governments should consistently do to support transparency:

• where data are used publicly, the sources of these data or the data themselves should be published alongside any press briefing and associated slides to allow people to understand their strengths and limitations
• where models are referred to publicly, particularly to inform significant policy decisions, the model outputs, methodologies and key assumptions should be published at the same time
• where key decisions are justified by reference to statistics or management information, the underlying data should be made available

When data and associated information are made available it should be done in an orderly way, and in a way that is equally accessible to all.

It is clear that those working on the pandemic face significant pressures. But full transparency is vital to public understanding and public confidence in statistics and those who use them.

Three nations cases today total 3004.

V 3325 last week

V 3888 two weeks ago

So these are clearly falling too.

Its a fucking pisstake.

Being on time displays good preparation and professionalism,it's also a basic courtesy.

He's a fucking waste of skin.

The woman was not legally entitled to remove her mother because her mother is not of sound mind and the daughter does not have power of attorney so her mother is a ward of the state.

If she had got power of attorney she could have taken her mum home.
Too late now of course to get power of attorney.

Have you set up power of attorney?
I have.

I am the youngest , difficult to know who to chose

"You must stay at home" The vast majority of people are still going to work/school/uni today what a weird message

This is not just us.

Unfortunately not by any means.

Not shutting uni's make this a waste of time imo

Still better off naming someone in the family to make decisions on your behalf rather than leaving decisions to a council bean pusher!

Exactly!! It’s not safe so stay indoors, but send your kids to school, college or university and go to work, use public transport if needed but remember it’s not safe!

Yep. Horrible numbers all over the continent and beyond. 367 deaths reported in Poland today. Their population is about 60% of ours.

However, by far the worst is Belgium again - 205 deaths despite have less than a fifth of our population. Was speaking to a mate about Belgium the other day - he knows someone who lives in Holland but works over the border in Liege. Apparently they’ve drafted the military in to help and oversee things at hospitals, and any health workers testing positive but showing no symptoms are being asked to still turn up for work as they’re so short staffed. Now as bad as things are over here, it’s clear that it’s a damn sight worse over in Belgium.

 

[Healdplace]

We should have seen more of this NHS guy. Straight to the point and clear.

 

[lonestay]

"you must stay at home" easy to say Boris but when your company is putting pressure on you to go in, not so easy to do .

 

[kaz7]

The second wave is here and is serious

NHS guy

Perhaps a few would like to apologise to me for battering me constantly for saying this would happen all along
