SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)

Does seem a trend in when we get a smaller glimmer of hope the virus comes back with a vengance in some way.
Didn't sleep that well last night thinking I'd wake up to news we've got now (or worse). Mad how a person you've never met or even think is right for the huge role they have can impact like this.
How fecking stupid it would be to say “I told you so” one month into a pandemic.
Sweden for 2 weeks have had a stable number coming into ICU daily and feel they are in a good position, and the curve for winter sickness and flu has dropped off a cliff showing that their social distancing these past 2 weeks is having a big effect.
But do carry on being arrogant as feck about a situation that no-one knows the long term answer to just yet.
Seven Prime Ministers have died in office:
- Lord Wilmington, who died on 2 July 1743, aged 70.
- Henry Pelham, who died on 6 March 1754, aged 59.
- Lord Rockingham, who died on 1 July 1782, aged 52.
- William Pitt the Younger, who died on 23 January 1806, aged 46, the youngest to die in office.
- Spencer Perceval, who was assassinated by John Bellingham on 11 May 1812, aged 49.
- George Canning, who died on 8 August 1827, aged 57.
- Lord Palmerston, who died on 18 October 1865, aged 80 (two days before his 81st birthday); the oldest to die in office.
GP on Sky saying we need to drink much more than normal. Boom.
If we had our time again, we'd set up quarantine zones at every port or airport.
But hindsight is easy like that.
The US and Brazil were just out of sheer stupidity, there wasn't even any kind of herd immunity argument. It was mostly pitched by politicians saying "this ain't shit". Didn't the Netherlands also lean in the direction the UK was initially?
What's the protocol if he dosen't make it, a day or two of national mourning e.g. just stay inside your fecking homes. Would imagine all essential shops would be closed for a day.
Also normally a state funeral but no idea in the current circumstances how that would work or even when it would take place.
Let's hope it dosen't come to it. As others have said it's the very last thing this country needs with all it's going through.

Yup, I think 99% of countries will realise they have a hell of a lot to learn.
Just cracked open a bottle of whisky and I might even start on the vodka!
We've had some decent exchanges on other footy threads...but I have to ask. Are you on a mission to get yourself a ban today fella? Seem to have been in the thick of arguments all day
Can’t watch right now. The reason for this being? Sounds great.
UK's (said by Boris) "herd immunity" strategy was the most idiotic response someone ever said. It was sheer idiocity, and I cannot believe that an expert actually chose that option. The experts actually do not choose options, they offer options to the politicians.
He is still a young man. I hope he recovers.
The only positive is that he'll have the best medical care there is around him.
Hopefully that sees him right.
It was dehydration I think. Might have been hydration, but they're similar so...
Weird arguments for me.We've had some decent exchanges on other footy threads...but I have to ask. Are you on a mission to get yourself a ban today fella? Seem to have been in the thick of arguments all day
RAB: Boris isn’t a scientist, he’s a twerp, went on advise of his Chief Scientific Advisor.
Caf: feck me, you don’t know shit, Boris is responsible for killing so many.
RAB: it’s good Denmark feel they have it under control and feel the can slowly start to open again.
Caf: chatting shit again, learnt nothing. Arrggggghhhh.
I guess I should just go along with the group and fit in.
One thing to note from that report is that 83% of patients that only received basic respiratory support have survived. It's the patients who move onto advanced respiratory support that the situation is very bleak for (2 in 3 don't make it). As far as we know Boris has only had to receive basic support so far.

I don't want to be that guy that keeps live-quoting Sky, but bloke just now said Boris wouldn't even stop for breath. Which is unfortunate.
"In power"...
in office I meant.Thanks mate. Hope he pulls through. Another kid on the way ffs.
Daily evolution of new cases
England, but she works in ICU at a hospital so she was tested next day when she said had body aches. High risk of contracting plus they desperately need ICU trained staff so it was important to find out. She can go back to work next week.
So a prime minister hasn't died in office in 155 years nearly.
You really should give up trying to talk sense. Obviously the U.K. Chief Scientific and Medical Advisors should have been ignored as Pexbo suggests. Anyone with the slightest bit of intelligence would know that.
Spencer Perceval. But he was shot.

I'm not saying it isn't true, but this would be a really good way to get people in this country taking this thing seriously and staying the feck at home.
And my faith in the sense of some on the caf to see an argument for what it actually is, is thankfully restored.
Really?
Just maybe, the bigger problem is that your style is quite annoying, more so than your different views, that are actually shared by many nordic and german posters, largely because we are in different situation than the countries in more imminent crisis. Whereas @Arruda is loved by everyone, obviously.
And you don’t think that posters are cherry picking on the opposite side basically arguing that in the Western world everyone was in step with regards to what measures to implement and how quickly to implement with the exception of the U.K. and The USA?
That's so kind of you.
I don't get why we need to pretend to be nice, if some of the people I absolutely despise die, I'm not going to pretend I'm sad.
We did lose Spencer Percival to assassination in the early 19th century. He was MP for my home town.
After press conference today things developed quickly and he detoriated. He was given oxegen shortly after and admitted about 1900 after suffering from breathing difficulties into ICU He isn't on a ventilator but in unit and ventilator there should his condition worsen.

Well said.
Hope Boris Johnson pulls through. Wish it was the other moron across the pond. He can OD in his Chloroquine.
You absolutely despise? Nice and compassionate are not mutually exclusive. It's a pity many of the posters with frankly abhorrent attitudes didn't have to go through the newbie system.
Or more scarily professing that the government should have impinged on our civil liberties far more aggressively early on by tracking all our phones and locking citizens up who'd been in contact with people who tested positive. Frightening.
