New thread

He seemed pleased that old person had it mildly so he could use her as an anecdote, he does know that anecdotes dont equal data...

Moderate illness does NOT mean they can EASILY manage it at home!

When will the govt have the legislation in place to enforce any of this?

2nd group, indirect death , inability to get medical care.

I wish they would say which health conditions. My doctors have no appointments and I can't get hold of my consultant

Exactly NHS overwhelmed they are the ones - yes good stop that

There are broadly 3 groups of deaths we should consider.

Direct - caused by corona itself
Indirect - If NHS is overwhelmed people die due to lack of medical care
Death caused by Negative impacts on health caused by isolation and restrictions

I'm signing my children off school.

Greentea93 you said, and I quote and yesterday a healthy 21 y old Spanish youth sports coach. He wasn't healthy. The poor man had leukaemia. You're scaremongering and you think i'm "rude" for suggesting people check facts first? Did I single you out by name? No I did not.

FFS there are enough scary facts out there without peddling misinformation.

London is going to mostly ignore the advice and we going to probably make Italy look like no one has died what with our numbers. I fucking dispair.

If the force us to send them in. We are in self isolation now until Easter

I hope someone asks about vulnerable groups and also PPE for medical staff. Also what about pay for isolating people

Very unclear what he's trying to say now

Steven Swinford -
'Chris Whitty, chief medical officer, says Coronavirus can lead to fatalities in three ways:

1. Direct deaths - caused by Coronavirus itself

1. Indirect deaths - if the NHS becomes overwhelmed

1. Deaths caused by negative effects of actions put in place stop spread.;

People who in adult life would normally have flu vaccine

Women who are pregnant

Those who are elderly

Vulnerable groups defined

Flu vaccine people

I've never wanted to punch someone's face so much in my life!

No legislation, just advice. Such a contrast to here in France!

Plus immuno compromised people

I have respiratory failure but I'm not in the group that needs to isolate or even socially distance

BREAKING: Italy reports 3,233 new cases of coronavirus and 349 new deaths, raising total to 27,980 cases and 2,158 dead t.co/eUoE2b20hL

I can tell you come Thursday everywhere near me will just be as busy as normal.

If you're in a house with someone with corona virus?? How would you know for sure as they are not testing suspected cases.

I assume this includes immune suppressed/comprised?

I get the flu vaccine because of diabetes and hypertension, those conditions weren't mentioned though?

Why the hell can't they just spell it out?!
