Guest Moomintroll Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Get off the pedant fence. They’re all responsible. Cummings included.Could be worse, we could be the U.S, although I do agree that Cummings is a deeply disturbing individual. Thank f**k we have people like Chris Whittey and Patrick Vallance however that will lay it out in specific terms & will not kowtow to a bullying lurid tangerine wanktrumpet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moomintroll Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Random Guy has went back and deleted all his lunatic conspiracy posts from yesterday. Shame they've all pretty much been quoted. Hopefully his shelter building is going well.If only a Moderator could correct such an oversight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donathan Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 The chances of China's body count being accurate are essentially nil. It's a certainty that this is more widespread than is currently known or, more accurately, acknowledged. Already reports of people with the same symptoms being hospitalised, dying and being cremated without ever being tested. And queues of people with symptoms being treated but not tested. Not saying the world is going to end, but one of these viruses is going to do serious global damage sometime. It's a when, not an if. Bad timing for Chinese New Year. Hundreds of millions of Chinese people on the move internally and internationally.From the 22nd January when everyone thought this was just the sniffles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple the ageing population with their flagrant disregard for flu vaccinations yearly etc, it was always going to be a particularly hard hit region with this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Wing Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Just saw a guy come out of Greggs. As he was putting his money in to his wallet he didn't have any free hands to hold his baked purchase, so he held the bag in his mouth.Eating through the bag prevents the spread of germs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistics, modern studies, grammatical / spelling correction expertise... what could go wrong? In the interests of grammar, do I then have permission to have a go when people keep saying "it's went from..."? I accept that there are bigger problems right now, but it's driving me mad. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, well..., IIRC it's no time at all since he and government et al, were mouthing 'Herd immunity' as the way to go. Now they're acting according to the modelling of the academics report from Imperial College, London. Meanwhile, in the real world, Ireland has made huge orders for testing kits. Here, the medics aren't even being tested, let alone the rest of us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
