Once again 59 you're ill-informed, our figures which now include hospital, care home and deaths in the wider community might exceed those of France and Spain at the moment, but you're not comparing like with like, those two countries do not include deaths in the wider community in their figures. The French newspaper La Croix says the deaths in the community figures in France are a 'timebomb waiting to explode.'
You really should know by now not to take too seriously what you read in the Guardian or see on Panorama or Newsnight. Do I have to keep telling you this ? :blue:

ALL people are still wearing face masks, until further notice.
All is well, I begin my classes at the new school in Shenzen, next Tuesday.

Haven't looked at the map Map,where is Shenzen? Hope you have an new apartment and cope with the local dialect.I felt sorry for the young French student who came over when I was in the 5th form,we weren't exactly fair on the young girl when I look back.

If the government’s own statistics are to be believed, the UK has already lost more than 26,000 lives to the coronavirus pandemic. Those deaths now account for an eighth of the world’s Covid-19 deaths with less than a hundredth of its population.
Not really a good effort from our hapless Tory government, is it sinkov?

A lot of lessons (good and bad) to be learnt.

Remember, Italy, Spain, France are also around three weeks "further along the curve" than us. Why have countries like these been badly hit?

Why have countries like Germany and Austria done relatively well?

A lot of info on the site attached.

Belgium seems to be the worst affected country in Europe according to the deaths per million column.

NHS, envy of the world. not any more I don't think eh ? Not that it ever was really, which is why no one else has chosen to use that model.

'Stay Home, Save the NHS'

Well we've saved the NHS, more spare capacity than you can shake a ****ty stick at, maybe it should now try a little bit harder to save us ? Other privatised health care systems worldwide seem to be managing it better.

The Bolton Evening News confirmed the death of a 46 year old male doctor from COVID-19. Real cause of death: lack of proper, effective PPE.

The Health Minister ought to resign - now.

Why ? :?

Because he is the man responsible for this carnage.

If it's any comfort, the home of "privatisation" ain't doing too well either!

Rockefeller Scenarios on Technology & Development >>>>>>2010<<<<<<<



LOCK STEP
ScenarioNarratives
A world of tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian leadership, with limited innovation and growing citizen pushback


p19 China’s government was not the only one that took extreme measures to protect its citizens from risk and exposure. During the pandemic, national leaders around the world flexed their authority and imposed airtight rules and restrictions, from the mandatory wearing of face masks to body-temperature checks at the entries to communal spaces like train stations and supermarkets. Even after the pandemic faded, this more authoritarian control and oversight of citizens and their activities stuck and even intensified. In order to protect themselves from the spread of increasingly global problems — from pandemics and transnational terrorism to environmental crises and rising poverty — leaders around the world took a firmer grip on power.
