Imagine if we tracked every death from a specific thing minute in minute out.

Should have a counter for cancer deaths on the front of every paper every day




You can't catch cancer.

All schools to shut on Friday, deaths near doubled in 2 days.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

My post was too flippant for this subject. It wouldn't hurt to have a cancer counter.

Think this is a pretty crap post, Glenn. I'd like to say you make loads, but unfortunately can't Cheesy

You not think it's quite important to track something that is spreading rapidly, which we're trying to contain, and don't have any kind of treatment for at present?

Of course they are tracking it, whether it’s it’s communicated at 9am or 5pm makes no difference to the public,  it’s just the same people that look to pick at the Tories are doing at every opportunity, you must be used to it by now....I am.

I obviously meant to communicate as well, given this is a rather unique situation.

Wasn't viewing it from any party angle, as all of them are the same when it concerns the other side doing something, lol.

Looks like my kids aren't going back.  At least the trampoline is getting used and I don't have to kick them out of bed at 7.30am.  I'd recommend leaving them there all day.  Maybe the missus too.

I can't answer this honestly because I'll seem like an uncaring brute. I know my views on this are heavily influenced by the demographic dying and if it was predominantly say sub 35 year olds I'd have a different perspective.

I was in the 'only flu' brigade and lets crack on, until I did a bit of listening to some experts and seeing how bad it might get, I've done a 180.

We know you're an uncaring brute anyway, so wouldn't worry too much Wink

I knew that Smiley

I might need a second job, though. Just had a convo with one of the brokers I do some work for and he's talking about waiting to see how much they're getting commissions for cases cut, and I might need to take a 50% paycut until this all dies down.

I'll be off to Glas Vegas next holiday by the sounds of it Cheesy

475 deaths in Italy yesterday - those who died would have been infected about 2 weeks ago and the UK is 2 weeks behind Italy in terms of number of cases, so that shows you what is coming.

This morning Westminster coroner's court started building a temporary extension to their mortuary in order to handle the expected increase in cases.

I think the USA where only those that can afford it see doctors or get any kind of healthcare is an impending disaster-area.

We have isolated the boarders at our school for a week now and closing to day students Friday.

We are teaching remotely via Google Classroom and Google Meet.

Business as usual (ish) but we have been preparing and training staff for well over a month.

Between 50-100 million were killed by this.
With today's population  that would be around 200-400 million and it came in 2 waves the 2nd being felt by the young and healthy as well as the old and infirmed

Me and my Dad are on both the "at risk list" and its been difficult to self-isolate. We are still humans that need to go out, need to shop and a need to socialise (him, more than me).

Throughout all of this, the government response has been so iffy-jiffy and feel sorry for those that are elf employed and renters.

Let's look after EVERYONE, not the chosen few.
