    Boris does sound more like that than the others you have mentioned, just a much more ineffectual version.

    They don't know how long it takes to produce a positive result from infection. However, it has nothing to do with incubation periods which is what your first post implied.

    i guess this will be the new norm for a while
    It highlights just how stupid it would be to relax the lockdown in the UK now. We have not established a decline in new cases, and deaths are still high.

    Interestingly, 40 cases are linked to one night club which was visited by a 29 year old who went on to test positive (South Korea are using massive testing and tracing to monitor the outbreaks). That is not implying that the 29 year old went on to infect 40 people, but it is pinpointing a specific location as a common factor. South Korea's first wave makes ours look like a tsunami.

    Surely with Boris saying there will be 200,000 tests they can just test them on arrival. Then quarantine if necessary.

    i did not mean incubation till the person showed symptoms, i quoted Hilts who mentioned tests at the airports, i used a example of coming into contact / being infected at the departure airport and a test at the destination airport ( unless they flew around the world 7 times ) would still be negative, as i said the governments expert said they think it can take a few days from contact and infection till a test would show positive

    It is the way these days, all our great leaders were bad people, everything we did in the world was bad and Prime Ministers have to apolgise for something that happened 100 years ago when the world was a very different place.

    It makes me sick!!!!

    Would an apology make you feel better?

    That implied that people would still be negative because of the incubation period, but I am willing to write it off as poor English.

    Regardless, no-one knows how long it takes for a test to pick up infection.

    Also, even during the closure of the borders, an estimated 15,000 people are arriving into the country daily. How this will be policed when we have even more people arriving will be challenging.

    Re: Coronavirus update

    100,000 tests a day. The Government has achieved this target ONCE. And, to get to that stage, they included tests that had not yet happened.

    200,000 tests by the end of May is the latest target. That's going to take a lot of creativity, maybe even changing the number system so we go

    99998
    99999
    200000

    Or, more likely

    96877
    96878
    200000

    Interestingly, the CMO said "Take care interpreting the data, it is difficult to identify trends from this data". I wonder what that means.

    The virus is probably trying to figure out which ones the Chinese are, it's annoyed at itself for keeping accidentally killing loads of people of other nationalities

    no its pointing out a fact that a government expert said that " they think incubation period is a few days ( maybe i should have added till a test would show as positive just to avoid confusion, but due to the example of the airport i felt it wasnt needed ) , so they might have come into contact in the departure airport, if we tested them on arrival they would still be negative " they have said that a test might not show up a positive until a few days have past from contact / infection , thus testing at the airport wouldnt work

    but I am willing to write off your misunderstanding of my post due to you being you

    I my opinion Stalin (who also swore and smoked) was more responsible for defeating the Third Reich than Churchill.
