  1. Neutropenia with leukemia, fvck yeah stick a Covid patients next to me. Day 2 post Kidney transplant, cough at me fella. We can all indulge in hyperbole. If your wife or child had neutropenia would you be happy with a covid positive patient next to them. People need to learn to be a little less dogmatic, black/white about this. I suspect the reality in Sweden will not be as is portrayed. It really isn't a bad cold and stats have clearly shown that.
  2. There will have to be some planning to reestablish the NHS. I've not seen any countries plans for integrating COVID into existing health systems. There will remain a lot of hurdles to do this. Who knows though?
  3. Correct, name an early treatment that has been proven to work.
  4. Fvcking hell, it's nearly 2 years since people at a Melbourne Uni (maybe Monash) found a pleotropic effect of ivermectin. However this was in-vitro. It has become one of the most fraudulently studied medicines of the pandemic (maybe even all time). If this drug was really as good as it's purported to be, then why such shithouse research. Oh and Laurence Fox has been vaccinated, he's a grifting cvnt.
  5. Of course politicians will select according to their bias however Rennie's point of contention in his correspondence was At yesterday’s First Minister’s Questions, the First Minister stated: “The Office for National Statistics figures this week show that infection levels in England are over 20 per cent higher than those in Scotland”. However, ONS figures state that 1 in 20 people were infected in both Scotland and England in the week ending 15 January. They also state that the estimated average percentage of the population that had COVID-19 in Scotland was 4.49% compared to 5.47% – a difference of less than 1%. Infections were over 20% more, as I mentioned above the difference would represent 500000 fewer infections in England if they had the same rate as Scotland. This is not an insignificant amount however probably has less meaning in the Omicron wave. Rennie is just wasting other people's time.
  6. If England had the positivity rate of Scotland is what I stated. If England's rate was 4.49% as opposed to 5.47% there would be over half a million less infections in England. Is that clear enough now.
  7. Nope, Rennie is wrong. It's that clear. The response from Nosgrove who's representing the UK statistics authority states that clearly. If England had the positivity rate if Scotland then that 1% point difference represents 500,000 infections. It doesn't really make a difference in the Omicron wave however it is what it is.
  8. I saw the response from David Nosgrove on their website yesterday and my first though was these guys must really really hate politicians. Wasting time to score a point when in fact the data was presented clearly and Rennie could easily have interpreted it himself. These organisations should get a joker card where several times a year they can officially tell people to 'get fvcked' with impunity.
  9. The gross misrepresentation of stats on this thread is ridiculous. Stuff that was explained in 2020 still getting blurted out. Deaths vs Death lag /dry tinder/'of covid' vs with/cases vs hospitalization vs ICU / optimistic vs pessimistic models. Fvck me there was a period where people were discussing that a third of scottish NHS staff were off sick at one time. Which was just an absurd reading of stats. This thread is not the place for stats, there are much much better resources for that.
  10. The satellite images are absolutely frightening, genuine terror looking at them. I'm actually lost for words.
  11. This is probably the most intense batting/bowling if the ashes. It's glorious.
  12. That's a lovely wicket from wood. A beautiful over. What a session of cricket.
  13. I'm not sniping I'm clearly saying i agree with what he has posted about the thread.
  14. WRK with a spot on assessment of this thread.
