A survey of superforecasters today showed they expect the global death total to be around four million by the end of the month.

Italy overtook China's number of deaths six days ago, now they have more than double. The Italian total just went up by 10% in one day. I think some people need to look out their Standard Grade maths textbooks and read up on compound interest.

You mean like that eugenicist chappie that Cummings hired and was forced to sack a couple of days later? Lets hope that's just hopeful thinking. The thing that disgusts me today is the market for PPE and ventilators, States in America competing against each other and the Federal government, the UK competing against the EU, f**k knows how third world countries are going to get anything. Some c***s must be raking it in.

Country by country graphs of cumulative and daily new cases and deaths here.

In terms of new cases, Germany and Italy seeming to have started to flatten / reduce the curve for both.

Italian deaths levelling out, with Germany still in the upward curve.

UK still going up for both. Not surprising given noone seems to be taking the PM's direction seriously.

Also mentioned on the news earlier the peak is expected sometime next month. If lockdown measures are adhered to then this seems reasonably realistic.

It's also a huge diversion away from "late June" that was being banded about as recently as the start of next week. Such guesses are unhelpful as if people think they will be stuck at home for 3 months they are less inclined to do so.

If you’re that gullible I can sell you a cure for just £5k.  I’ll even throw in a free bridge.

Nah I’m not gullible but it made some good points

The problem with that is how does the virus know which border to cross and which ones to avoid?

Clearly the Chinese allowed infected people to travel to the West 🙄😂

Yip it was this. Some points in it are plausible, like the fact they were able to build the hospital so quickly. Same about the bit about the President being vaccinated against it and that’s how he could visit without fear

Any idea why England's daily figures aren't out yet?  Scotland, NI and Wales have got their numbers in but not England.  Usually out by around 14:00.

Hopefully they're double checking as they're small.

Bloody Hell.

Semi literate rubbish in nutjob support of Trump.  

Not remotely plausible.

There's time delay videos of them building them. If you chuck enough plant and people at something it's not remotely impossible.
