Seeing a few headlines just now on cancer diagnosis down 40% because of the virus.

That is unacceptable, that's f**king horrendous and another thing both governments should be slammed over.

Imagine how many people have already died? Oral cancers etc too with people not going to the dentist.

So it was 5 months ago when the UK supposedly bulk bought all this -

UK bulk buys hydroxychloroquine as potential Covid-19 treatment

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/may/19/uk-to-test-hydroxychloroqine-as-coronavirus-treatment

How did the testing go and was the 35m contract worth it?

Trump endorsed it so Boris and his chums bought lots just in case.

Not heard much about it since then.

What else can it be used for, can it be distilled into gin or something?

On the plus side the Westminster cleaners have 30 years supply of Dettol.

Many contributors on this thread have said all they need is a statement that schools aren't safe, hence my comment, which tbh, only someone completely rabid would see as any kind of support for sturgeon 
Tbh, given your track record on the thread, all it would take would be for you to proclaim them safe for everyone to be 99% certain that they're not 
Didn't he say this was over as a public health crisis?

Danish mask study to be published at 2pm today

Shocking expose of previous estimates being pretty well spot on.

There will be a few disappointed Spectator writers tonight.

One of the arguments for a more laid back Swedish sort of approach is that if you obsess over COVID-19 too much there will inevitably be collateral damage elsewhere. Politicians in a UK context have provided plenty of oil to the proverbial squeaky hinge that the tabloid media was going into a feeding frenzy over, but it may turn out with the benefit of hindsight that they didn't provide the optimal outcome from an overall public health standpoint because that involved placating mass hysteria rather than doing what was rational.

Except in Sweden they panicked the same as here by emptying the hospitals and stuffing elderly covid suspects in badly prepared care homes. Not sure how much the rest of their healthcare suffered. Apart from allowing strictly segregated bars and restaurants to stay open, there wasn't a lot of difference, aside from keeping schools open for under 16s which would have a few on here raging.

Has anyone raised the question that this we must save Christmas might discriminate against other religions?

I've been wondering what Jesus would make of this whole ruining millions of peoples' lives to save Christmas fiasco.

I don't think he'd be too impressed!
