No. I got 3 points for that post alone.
SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)
- Thread starter Don't Kill Bill
- Start date
Your tests per million capita (if we want to compare apples with apples) has you in 12th place according to the link you shared. With 11 countries (including 6 other European countries) doing better than you. Which is pretty shoddy for one of the biggest/wealthiest countries on the continent.
In fact, you’re only one place ahead of Ireland in that table and I know for a fact that the rolling out of testing in Ireland has been an absolute clusterfeck. Only just starting to become fit for purpose.
Starting to get the feeling this is a lot worse than anybody is willing to admit at this moment, especially with the recent government mess up most people knew would happen. The fact a minority are undermining and purposely ignoring the advice given is really worrying. Maybe my anxiety kicking it up a gear, but really feels like the beginning of something we won't come good from. If anything was to wipe humanity out, it would be something like this. Don't think my anxiety can handle reading more into this, but at the same time, the need to pay attention and show maturity here is essential.
My best wishes go out to every single one of you.

Yeah, insult the post as long as it's not coming from a mod.@Mr Pigeon not gonna lie I was pretty proud of that one
Yet when I feed a whole packet of animals bars to the pet dog, suddenly I'm was the bad guy.
Life isn't as easy as you think.
Oh god I had forgotten that at first some people on here defended the government. I posted this tweet last Thursday and well......

It won't wipe out humanity. We know this because many people have already been infected and recovered. The main issue once the pandemic is over will be the collapse of the global economies.
From the 3rd page of this thread.
Who'd have fecking thought it?
Yeah I was proud for you too. Printing it off and framing it as we speak.
Yeah, find my other post where I admitted my mistake.
I just noticed things about this flu season I hadn't seen before. A bit more messaging earlier and government posters on our bathroom doors and kitchens at work. Starting to think there was some evidence of this, even if they didn't quite know what it was.
Wonder where all the well read government supporters have ran off to now? This shit show can only get worse from the idotic decisions made by said government, completely disregarding everything the rest of the world advised.
Literally anyone with a brain on a fecking football forum, who has looked at the graphs from Italy and Iran. The mind boggles.
Noooo.... @Regulus Arcturus Black is going to make 10 consecutive posts defending the government before he even reads the summary.
So, essentially the same.
The moral of the story: if the economy allows it, delay it for autumn and start preparing in meanwhile (build hospitals, add ICU beds, get new ventilators and so on). If not, do mitigation now.
I checked only the graphs, not much else.

I'm still quite stunned by this.
It's one thing to feck up your predictions. That can happen, even if it's to horrendous effect in this case.
But to wilfully deviate from what other countries are doing and the WHO are imploring, only to so quickly (but not quickly enough) realise it was a horrendous mistake?
The sheer fecking arrogance of thinking they knew better than everyone else. Jesus.
Listen. My friends and I live in an affluent and like minded area and we are doing everything we can to reduce the risk to others. Swapping spit, licking railings, lobbing phlegm into jars and pouring it into our 10 pint punch bowl at our daily coughing parties. My friends are an astronaut, a Geth Prime, Santa Claus and a sentient pair of loafers. I head a team of four hundred tadpoles who sell knock off Adibas tracksuits.
Until Boris tells us what to do again we'll continue to think for ourselves.
This analogy would be more accurate if it was an Olympic size swimming pool that was constantly leaking into a tiny cup. We could slow the leaking if we tried but never fully stop the flow.
I still think the government should've held out for longer, the economy will be the bigger problem in the long run. I think they've now taken the politically expedient decision, rather than the most beneficial one, but the government obviously didn't think they could cope with death rates outstripping those on the continent.
This theory will be proven wrong if effective vaccines or anti-virals are developed and able to be distributed in the next 12 months, but I doubt it.
I’ll pop round and sign it, feck covid.
Christ you're a horrible piece of work.
So much for the UK’s more refined approach
I thought it was going to be weeks or months before we would be able to see how much the government has fecked up. Just a couple of days. Impressive.
Spat my drink out
i was thinking about the very same posts from last night, bloody hell. thankfully the virus stays away from affluent likeminded people in large groups
Not sure what's funnier, that UK government proved just again how clueless they are or that there actually were people defending that suicide plan.

‘The world today has 6.8 billion people. That's heading up to about nine billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care & reproductive health services, we could LOWER that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.
Ex vaccine researcher:
‘At the highest levels of the medical cartel, vaccines are a top priority because they cause a weakening of the immune system. I know that may be hard to accept, but its true. The medical cartel, at the highest level, is not out to help people, it is out to harm them, to weaken them. To kill them. At one point in my career, I had a long conversation with a man who occupied a high government position in an African nation. He told me that he was well aware of this. He told me that WHO is a front for these depopulation interests’.
Im not endorsing any ‘conspiracy’ theory, especially in times like these, but one can objectively present statements from ‘wealthy’ influential ‘elites’ who have been advocating for a ‘less populated’ earth for decades.
Again, i am merely presenting a view, and quotes which are tracable to the people who said them.
TBF to him, he has also said that he was expecting 500k-1m deaths. Right @Dante ?
Which brings to what I have been saying all along. Mitigation/herd-immunity comes to a giant cost of number of lives. It might be the only option though, but soon we will realize if that is the case or not (China and South Korea).
Herd immunity without hundreds of thousands of lives lost is impossible. Unless it is done by a vaccine.
Not blaming you or anything. Just found it interesting to read back early sentiments.
Loads of people are going to die, unless there is effective medication that is unavoidable.
I can't get the link to work in the post you quoted but Spain announced 30k tested yesterday while UK have done 44k.
France has done 6k testing on March 5th while UK had done about 20-25k.
Considering also that Spain France and Italy are further on with the virus, UK has done a large amount of testing considering we've got just 1500 cases so far.
Scary snapshot here of intensive care in Italy managing COVID 19 patients which I have forwarded to a few family members to get the message through about how serious we need to take this. Interesting to see how they use "proning" in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients in ITU to reduce lung oedema. Apologies if already posted before.
Just feck off with this absolute nonsense, it’s never the time or the place and it’s even less so right now for no other reason than its incredibly tiresome.Bill Gates must be thrilled.. ?

But...the Dutch are following a somewhat similar strategy though.
SARS, MERS, Ebola, swine flu and bird flu should have served as a wake up call. Unfortunately, it only made governments (and people) complacent and it is gonna be alright next time too.
Then they’re also a bit dumb.
So the Government has asked people not to go to pubs, cinemas, theatres etc but not asked them to close so these businesses cannot claim on the insurance and therefore will struggle.
