Coronavirus update - NO MORE RESTRICTIONS

Re: Coronavirus update

Right, in your next post you are going to explain how these two stories are linked. Otherwise, it's another illustration of you being unable to commit to one line of thought. I am, at the moment, unable to work out if you have many lines of thought, or zero.

The reason I linked it is you reckoned there was no such thing as quarantine UK-style.

Re: Coronavirus update

they think incubation period is a few days, so they might have come into contact in the departure airport, if we tested them on arrival they would still be negative

Ok so we hand out tests on arrival.

No worries. Back to the video you shared, what is the point of it please?

Re: Coronavirus update

It's Mr Exponential. I'm wondering why there's not millions or billions of COVID-19 dead by now.

Because almost every country who has had exponential death rate then had a lockdown to slow it. The thing you are, unbelievably even now, against.

I'm about to do just that, old bean.

Rest assured, I'll be back tomorrow though.

Don't get me wrong, I'm finding your breakdown really entertaining. I want you to continue, but for your own good it is for the best.

You said that we were all in quarantine, I argued that we aren't as we can still leave our homes and put ourselves at risk.

You have now twisted my words (for the Xth time in recent weeks) to make it sound like I think quarantine doesn't exist... It doesn't exist for us, Organ. The story about flight passesgers being quarantined was also reported after you'd made your original point of us all being in quarantine.

I'll repeat what I said you last night... Go for a walk, go and get some shopping and come back here later to complain about how you're in quarantine.

Completely false. We don't yet know at which stage positive tests may happen, it could happen during the incubation period.

The incubation period is the period between getting infected and getting symptoms. Since the virus can be transmitted before the onset of symptoms, it follows that people can be tested during incubation. The success of these tests is, as yet, to be determined.

Re: Coronavirus update

I agree to an extent, but I think the point is that, when it came to the Second World War at least, Churchill was the real thing in a way that Boris Johnson is not for the COVID 19 panademic.

He thinks he's Churchill, but he's far closer to Chamberlain or Eden

You're thinking of symptoms.

on one of the " daily updates " recently they ( one of the governments experts ) said that they do not know when the tests will show a positive but it is likely to be a few days after contact but before showing symptoms

then again, this was just a health specialist being used by the government, you might know more than them

no, see my post above, in the case we are discussing, you could become infected at the departure airport, but the test would not show positive in a test at the arrival airport, they think it takes a few days till a test would show positive
