Coronavirus

Quoted from Yoda

It’s all a hoax 500 000 died of flu last winter so far 10000 with conovirous.
Don’t everything you see on the news or some politician tells you.

Go away you stupid idiot, lives are at stake !

And its pillocks like you that will cause more deaths and make us stay in isolation for much longer. What an irresponsible thing to say at a time when it is hard enough to get people to stay in their homes.

No really worth wasting time on someone as ignorant as yourself but the piece below will explain:

So far, it appears the coronavirus is more deadly than the flu. However, there's still a lot of uncertainty around the mortality rate of the virus. The annual flu typically has a mortality rate of around 0.1% in the U.S. So far, there's a 0.05% mortality rate among those who caught the flu virus in the U.S. this year, according to the CDC.

In comparison, recent data suggests that COVID-19 has a mortality rate more than 20 times higher, of around 2.3%, according to a study published Feb. 18 by the China CDC Weekly. The death rate varied by different factors such as location and an individual's age, according to a previous Live Science report.

But these numbers are continuously evolving and may not represent the actual mortality rate. It's not clear if the case counts in China are accurately documented, especially since they shifted the way they defined cases midway through, according to STAT News. There could be many mild or asymptomatic cases that weren't counted in the total sample size, they wrote.

FFS Skaface, you're still trying to score political points out of this! What else can any government do? Put everyone under house arrest. Australia urged everyone to keep their distance and what happened? A huge number flocked to Bondai Beach so now they have have sectioned the beach off. Now things may have changed but I don't think our government runs Australia and they are having the same problem in getting the public to follow advice. If you want to have a go at the any administration then have a go at the Chinese Government for keeping this virus under wraps for so long. The first recorded case they can trace goes back to mid November but it wasn't until midday December that they admitted there could been a problem. They even ridiculed the scientist who made them aware of this virus and censured him for rumour mongering.

Please stop flattering yourself into thinking I give anything resembling a sh1te about what you think or “scoring points” on a website with some anonymous lower league football fans.

I’ve just given a simple, workable example of what they could do. Have another go at reading it.

2 weeks back the Prime Minister was boasting about shaking hands with COVID patients in hospital. Last weekend we were told that mass gatherings were fine and sporting authorities had to take the lead and cancel their own fixtures (Rugby League still went ahead IIRC). Pubs and restaurants were absolutely fine up until Friday tea time, seemingly. On Thursday the Prime Minister said he’d only “advise people not to” visit their mothers when asked if they should, rather than saying “absolutely not”.

Today he’s telling people not to stay home “unless necessary”. I’ll ask you again, what does that mean?

He needs to grow some b0ll0cks and put in place some clear measures rather than these half-ar5ed suggestions.

Not sure if this has been posted, if so I apologise but if anyone needs cheering up.

Oh the irony , " anonymous lower league football fans " !  I've checked in all the phonebooks and other such material and can't find anybody called Skaface  .

I really thought that you were brighter than this Rancido. Your example from Australia just underlined Ska’s point. Governments need to take a strong line because there are so many dickheads in the population. The first duty of any government is to protect its people. When people are acting in a manner that threatens other people’s health and life, they should be stopped.

Quoted from smokey111

People maybe acting ignorantly but that is a bit OTT.

Not really. If someone is risking other people’s life recklessly then if they suffer for it, we’d all be better off.

After seeing the pictures of crowds in London parks and Lincolnshire seaside resorts over this weekend - why have they not brought further restrictions in? We’re going to have tens of thousands of deaths caused by inaction.
