    We often hear about how the asymptomatic cases hide the true death rate but there is a good case to say that the same is true in balance for unidentified deaths. Interesting article from italy reporting that phenomenon

    Ultimately it's the death rates of those without serious underlying conditions that will give us a truer picture, but what we don't know is how many people would die if we destroyed the global economy? I don't envy the people who are trying to predict the future, as the consequences of getting it wrong could be horriffic.

    Why do you have such a problem with people who don't tell you what you want to hear? Even a person with the fate of the world in their hands is wrong according to you.

    Seems unreal to be reading things like this.
    Birmingham Airport could become emergency mortuary

    Birmingham Airport could be used as a temporary mortuary for up to 12,000 bodies in a worst-case coronavirus scenario after talks with several local councils.

    Re: Coronavirus update

    The coronavirus lockdown has led to big drops in air pollution across the country’s major cities....

    Levels of toxic pollutants were likely to fall even further.... as traffic remained off the roads but prevailing westerly winds from the Atlantic returned.

    The data shows drops in tiny particle pollution of a third to a half in London, Birmingham, Bristol and Cardiff, falls of about quarter in Manchester, York and Belfast, with smaller declines in Glasgow and Newcastle. For nitrogen dioxide (NO2) pollution, the data also shows declines of a third to a half in London, Birmingham, Bristol and Cardiff, and drops of 10-20% in the other cities.

    What? You think I want to hear this is bad? I'd much rather what you are posting to be true.

    You want to see the contingency plans for a global economic collapse, they will scare you shitless!

    I'm interested to see what the major reduction of air traffic is going to do for the CO2 levels.

    Well that will be moderately dependant on whether the health service in any particular country copes under the strain.

    What do you mean by 'destroyed the global economy'?

    I'm not sure this penny has dropped. I'm close to the 70+ age group yet am far more worried for my children and grandchildrens' futures. There was already a period of reckoning coming for global economies. This could tip literally everything over the edge of a cliff..

    Fauci deserves a medal. I don't know how many times I have seen him cover for Trump's innate ability to talk utter tosh about really serious subjects.

    It's alright. Walesbales has obtained a copy of the contingency plans for a global economic collapse. I am sure he can share this with you and your family so you can make adequate preparations.

    Global economic collapse = social anarchy. It's best not to speculate too much about that other than inner city areas will be first to experience mayhem.

    So we would be better off not having a quaratine and everyone going about their daily business as usual then?

    Re: Coronavirus update

    I'd go for isolating the already ill - whether elderly or not - route rather than the path being taken. To me it's the lesser of two evils. I'm amongst a small minority though.

    This website is ****ing madness. Too many blokes with way to much time on their hands. The worst thing about it is that everyone thinks that they're correct on every subject they like to pontificate on, seeing something in other posters replies that simply don't exist.

    But there is a good chance people who aren't showing symptoms have the virus and are contangeous though, you're going to end up with loads more ill and loads more needing to use the ICU in that case.

    Italy and Spain isolated anyone showing symptoms initially and it didn't do any good there, why would it work here?

    As I said, lesser of two evils. Trump's been struggling to convey the same message re the cure being worse than the disease.
