O/T Coronavirus Thread (3)

[WanChaiMiller]

Slighty topical on here from SMH article:

"Why the sudden change? The government had just been handed a bombshell piece of research by scientists from Imperial College London warning that taking a light-touch approach to the virus would cause 250,000 deaths in Britain and overwhelm the National Health Service (NHS). Any hope of defeating the virus by building "herd immunity" in the community was smashed. The only way to prevent 250,000 deaths was through draconian measures, the researchers concluded."

It's a damming article Wanchai and I've read it in full .

I don't know what to say right now to be honest .

Struggling for the right words so I'll leave it .

Neil Ferguson has resigned after being caught with a married left-wing activist, probably for the best, he's never been right about anything.

Good to know that in these times of crisis the Daily Telegraph (and/or other 'newspapers') still have time to have reporters 'snooping' into people's private lives. Were they camped outside his flat watching him and if so is that essential work? Or was it just nosey neighbours who reported it as they were jealous at the noises coming from his bedroom Olympics?

Research headed up by a man who took his own conclusions so seriously that he ignored them in favour of a bunk up with a woman whose husband he believed to have Coronavirus. You really couldn't make this stuff up.

You don't have to , some people in high positions think they can do whatever they want and nowt applies to them .

The orange buffoon in the White House is the premier example .

Germany's not exactly the Australian Outback .

Germany is about 230 people per square km

England it’s about 430 per sq km

We are overcrowded and now we’re paying for it.
