I prefer them alive.

I know you do, but this one isn't a cat.

Exactly,also the results have to be collected in the order that the scientist need the answers to move us foward,i assume those of us that have had it will get one fairly soon to answer the immunity question

Sounds reasonable. If it was me, it would be several as well, as they should all come back the same. If 1/10 fail, it's a crap test.

Diplomat in his 30's died

It’s like a pregnancy test. You get the results on the stick in about 15 minutes.

Yep,it can't go out on mass because they have to get back and collate the results though

I guess that's the problem of daily conferences. There will be some days when there isn't really much new to say.

Reasonable point.
Johnson doesn't need to be there himself for all of them, although I guess if it's from Downing St, he needs a reason not to be.

I didn't hear a question about NHS Nightingale, which surprised me.

Royal Mail are asking customers not to poke their genitals through letter-boxes whilst social distancing measures are in force.

A wise precaution.

What am I supposed to poke my genitals through then?

These are dark times indeed.

Slightly down in new cases and a bit down in deaths.

39 down in new cases. 60 down in deaths.

Yes out of everyone in different countries he comes across the lamest

He’s not really made for a situation like this but at least he’s trying and giving it all he’s got. Trump on the other hand is still pursuing self interest.

From the Netherlands:
"The RIVM said it had identified coronavirus in wastewater following sampling in Amsterdam, Tilburg, and Kaatsheuvel, which processes water from Loon op Zand, where the first Dutch case was identified. The first trace was found in water four days after the first Dutch victim tested positive for the virus. This means wastewater sampling is a good way to assess the spread of the virus.'
