Press conference question ...
On a scale of 1-10 how have you Mr President handled this crisis.
Did anyone expect him not to say 10

I expected him to say "Very tremendous".

Nobody in the world has a 10 like we have.
Our 10 is admired throughout the world .
It’s a tremendous 10.

Probably the only positive to this is that this utter shitshow should be the end of Trump and Johnson.

Where's MANTIS when we most need him?
Self isolating?
Praying?

For Boris, this is the equivalent of the Falklands for Lady Thatcher.

I can see it now, his arms held high with the adulation of having defeated the virus, with the additional halo effect of holding a newborn baby on the doorstep of number 10. Bigger majority than last time at the next election, stuff of legends

Apparently we are only testing people who are already in hospital with respiratory problems. All others who suspect they might have it are told to self isolate.
If that's true there could be 10 of thousands of cases we don't know about.
The Government estimated 5-10000 last week and more by now
They are doubling every 2 or 3 days, though the Dom Cummings will have us believe it is every 5 or 6 days. I suppose if you spend your working hours with Tory ministers you may start to belive everybody is an imbicile who can't use a spreadsheet. I suppose we can pretend it is every 5 or 6 days if we don't test.
"...They are doubling every 2 or 3 days..." source? What spreadsheet?
89 UK cases on 5/3/2020*,
1543 as of today 16/3/2020
https://twitter.com/DHSCgovuk?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor
The reported cases have doubled four times in 11 days, which is pretty much doubling every 2 or 3 days.
I wrote a spreadsheet on the 6 March with some rough estimates based on Italian and French growth rates at the time. I though we'd do better and that they would "only" increase 5 fold for the first couple of weeks. The number of reported cases is spreading quicker than I assumed in my projections.
You can see a post I made on the 6 March here:
http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=68630.msg2274225#msg2274225
I didn't assume 5 fold increases til June, I assumed it would reduce and would only be doubling each week from Mid April.
I haven't seen the Government projections, but they did say that they expected the bulk of cases over a 3 week period, and that would be consistent with what I did. This is why they have to take such severe actions right now, the NHS could be overwhelmed by this time next month. I assume their projections aren't getting released as they are genuinely scary.
Have a nice evening.
* FWIW It was 13 the week before.
