Coronavirus - hype or pandemlc?

[Kwacky]

Almost 800 died in Italy yesterday.

Sounds like a huge figure until it's compared to the 150,000 people worldwide that die each & every day.

Or....

In 2003 the population of the U.S. was just over 290,000,000 people.
Over 2.4 million of them died that year.

Staggering figures when you think about it.

And this is why places are being shut down. From a critical care Doctor at Coventry University Hospital and a friend of a one time member on here....

Interesting information there Duke63.
Can we ask who the "one time member" is please.?

[duke63]

Can’t remember his name on here but a mate if Kwackys whose band played at his party at the pub done years back.

France currently has 525 people in intensive care with Corona virus. Half of them are under 60.

Some good information there.

Finally ran out of toilet-paper today, and because I didn't have anything else, I had to use lettuce leaves instead.
Believe you me, this is just the tip of the iceberg!

Armed, irrational and angry woman, doesnt sound good

We’ve had a series of retail lockdowns. In particular pubs and restaurants have closed, but off licence sales and takeaways are still available.

People have started to finally panic buy something sensible!!

Ive been isolated for a week now and my main news feed has been from my phone. Think I ve been in a bit of a bubble and no idea of what's going on out there.

I watched the news last night and the images of mass crowds over the weekend were a big surprise. I can see why you guys were saying people need isolating from each now and tbh I agree people are clearly not helping themselves or each other. Think my idea is dead in the water

[D41]

I'm going to get tested tomorrow morning.
Or this morning actually as it's after midnight.
A friend of a friend has tested positive. My mate suspects he might have it too, which will mean I'm probably fecked.

He's talking about two weeks in a hotel to "self-isolate".
I'm talking about this being total fecking bullsh#t.
Not particularly happy right now.

I've taken myself to one side and had a word with myself and a little bitch slap for good measure

[Perkles]

Amongst others yesterday we rode past large groups of bikers standing around chatting outside take out cafes yesterday ,they will be first to moan when they ban bikes off the road

[D41]

Realistically they'll probably be the only ones to complain
