The world could do with a bit of good news at the moment couldn’t it. Hard to think of a time of widespread doom & gloom in this country such as the present and the poor buggers still around who can remember the early days of WW2 are the most vulnerable. Naysayers who say there’s an overreaction must know something we don’t know.
Our Government says we are 4 weeks behind Italy. It also says the peak, for us, is 14 weeks away.
It will be interesting to see what the Italian figures are 2 weeks after lockdown because that will tell whether or not their strategy of locking down was correct (assuming that the incubation period is 2 weeks, which is what some experts say)
I dont think there's too much to gain by knowing the complete numbers of those with the virus.
After all, if you're diagnosed, invariably you're sent home to self isolate for 2 weeks. Same instructions if you've come back from a high risk area. After that period you're free to resume your normal life. If you're more vulnerable and have more serious symptoms then go to hospital and get looked after.
Individuals need to listen to the advice and self isolate if they show signs of symptoms. If the nhs concentrates on testing, just to draw a graph each day, it pulls resources from treating those most seriously affected.

Emergency meeting of Premier League tomorrow. Cancellation/postponement surely. They only announced an hour or two ago that games would be going on as normal
I went in a shop for some mozzarella, sweetcorn and tomatoes to make a pizza. I saw lots of people buying pasta, so I grabbed a few boxes - not because I wanted, or needed them, but because I was too thick to realise that my selfish act would result in people who really needed that pasta would now be deprived of it. But, hey, I'll be eating and they won't.
I'm not angry mate, I just find people like you pathetic, selfish ****wits.
Suspension of football incoming ...
3 Leicester players as well. This season is finished
But only 8 people have died in the UK blah blah blah
Over a thousand have died so far in Italy. Isn't that a good reason to take it seriously? Because once the death rate goes up, it seems too late to stop it without very extreme measures.
Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi tests positive too.
During the same period those eight died more Britons became millionaires through playing the Euromillions Lottery, FFS!
The latest official running total of worldwide coronavirus deaths is 4,984.
The way the corporate media's carrying on it's understandable if people mistakenly believe the figure's in the tens of millions.
