I'd say this is one of the implications, together with the Italian stats being pish. The vast majority of Icelandic people have not been to Italy in the last month, so even if the virus is concentrated in ski resorts, there would still be a lot more than 5000 cases in Italy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 26 minutes ago, bendan said: It's odd that Iceland has 50 cases and almost all have come from people who have themselves been in Italy, yet Italy only reports 5000 odd cases. Italy's population is about 160 times Iceland's, so if we say 40 out of Iceland's 50 were acquired in Italy, they have a higher proportion of their population picking up the virus *in Italy* than Italy itself. Which would suggest the Italian stats are utter bollocks, unless the virus has been extremely prevalent in ski resorts. The clear conclusion is that the bug was started by Icelanders munching ponies and it's been spread globally by Skyr yoghurt salesmen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) Beginning to think that the US might be the worst hit. Aside from the cost of healthcare is the fear of getting deported if you seek testing or treatment and your paperwork isn't in order. And they're way behind on testing as they insisted on developing their own kit instead of using the WHO one that was ready to go. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/mar/08/trump-immigration-policies-undocumented-coronavirus Edited March 8, 2020 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 I'm not overly worried about the Coronavirus / COVID-19, but I was scanning peoples' barcodes at parkrun yesterday and I found it rather disconcerting the number of people who finished their run and didn't wait 2 minutes to get their breath back, and instead marched up to me and breathed heavily in my face. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Points out the value of the much mocked face mask, it protects others, not so much yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
