Yes, the people deserve criticism, but also, this morning Robert Jenrick, the current housing secretary, was on Sophy Ridge saying its fine to take your kids to the park, to go out for a walk.Tweet

Beyond frustrating
It's only been 10 degrees here today. That said sunshine meant the country park was pretty busy with families when I walked through it a few hours ago. Going to be big issue if there's a heatwave in may as that's when the peak is predicted to be.Get in there. Let's hope it's all downhill from here for Italy.
Good news for us too with cases and deaths down from the expected trend
Summer heat having an effect on the virus (weather is lovely and warm in the UK this weekend)?? Doubt it though, since South East Asia and Africa are on the upwards trend.
Have Italy's death and/or cases numbers gone down?Get in there. Let's hope it's all downhill from here for Italy.

True.“When you’re a clown, nobody takes you seriously.”
Down 140 deaths and 1500 cases.Have Italy's death and/or cases numbers gone down?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d'étatIran's Khamanei refuses US help to fight coronavirus, citing conspiracy theory
Iran's supreme leader refused US assistance on Sunday to fight the new coronavirus, citing an unfounded conspiracy theory that the virus could be man-made by America
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's comments come as Iran faces crushing US sanctions blocking the country from selling its crude oil and accessing international financial markets.
But while Iranian civilian officials in recent days have increasingly criticized those sanctions, 80-year-old Khamenei instead chose to traffic in the same conspiracy theory increasingly used by Chinese officials about the new virus to deflect blame for the pandemic.
“I do not know how real this accusation is but when it exists, who in their right mind would trust you to bring them medication?" Khamenei said. "Possibly your medicine is a way to spread the virus more.”
He also alleged without offering any evidence that the virus “is specifically built for Iran using the genetic data of Iranians which they have obtained through different means.”
“You might send people as doctors and therapists, maybe they would want to come here and see the effect of the poison they have produced in person," he said

Are those questions for me?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d'état
Would you call this a conspiracy theory?
In August 2013, sixty years afterward, the U.S. government formally acknowledged the U.S. role in the coup by releasing a bulk of previously classified government documents that show it was in charge of both the planning and the execution of the coup, including the bribing of Iranian politicians, security and army high-ranking officials, as well as pro-coup propaganda.
The CIA is quoted acknowledging the coup was carried out "under CIA direction" and "as an act of U.S. foreign policy, conceived and approved at the highest levels of government".
Would you have called it a conspiracy theory before August 2013?
If you were Iranian would you trust USA and UK without question?

CIA initiating coups are different from claiming that the US released a genetically engineered disease designed to target "Iranian DNA".https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d'état

Yeah that was very noticeable. He did manage to say the word curfew at some point.He’s refusing to even say the word lockdown, let alone implement one. Imbecile.
Asymptomatic. feck this universe.Tweet

He's probably using a considerable amount of focus in an attempt to not use the words "heathens" or "peasants" to be fair to him.Yeah that was very noticeable. He did manage to say the word curfew at some point.
Thats the scary bit. Half the fecking population could have it, not know, and still transmit to others.Asymptomatic. feck this universe.
No you didn't, he wasn't asked about that directly, but some questions did mention it indirectly by saying specifically that people are not listening.Why hasn't he been asked specifically about the way people are mobbing supermarkets and what to do about it?
Or did I miss it?
Its Rand Paul, he is asymptomatic and he doesn’t possess the faculties to consider the possibility that other people experience the virus in a much less pleasant form.Now you might see some action.
This is oddly terrifying.
"A makeshift hospital has been set up in a conference centre in the capital Madrid, a city that is bearing some of the highest infection rates.
The hospital will be fitted with 5,500 beds, making it the biggest facility of its kind in Europe. Its director, Antonio Zapatero, told El Mundo newspaper that 300 people will be move there this weekend.
Earlier we reported on new figures from Spain, which has now seen over 1,700 disease-related deaths since the coronavirus epidemic began."
From the BBC. Should say "moved". I see many articles on the bbc site have spelling mistakes or broken English.
Hopefully, but it's probably better to wait for a trend before getting your hopes up.So Italy could be peaking?

Problem is that they've given people one option to go out so everybody is doing the same thing. I went for a walk yesterday and passed by the park, it was genuinely packed.Yes, the people deserve criticism, but also, this morning Robert Jenrick, the current housing secretary, was on Sophy Ridge saying its fine to take your kids to the park, to go out for a walk.
You can't say that and then moan when people go foa walk in the park.
This is a failure of government. And I dgaf who gets their panties in a bunch for me saying it.
If you have data which is not clear on linear axes because the change is too small or too big, then you you should probably use log scales. Remember that the information is still the same, its just about making it clearer to visualise, not more "accurate".Is a linear or logarithmic chart more accurate in determining whether the disease is slowing down?
Sure, that’s what I was getting at. Looking at the logarithmic chart for Italy for example it does look like its levelling off somewhat, which is encouraging.If you have data which is not clear on linear axes because the change is too small or too big, then you you should probably use log scales. Remember that the information is still the same, its just about making it clearer to visualise, not more "accurate".
Probably 40% of those have been transmitted through the subway. Its fecking packed.New York having 12,000 new cases in a day is mental
Exactly. If there was a lockdown on everything but pharmacies and food stores (as many seem to be calling for), the supermarkets would be just as packed.Problem is that they've given people one option to go out so everybody is doing the same thing. I went for a walk yesterday and passed by the park, it was genuinely packed.
It's the same as the supermarkets. Once you take people's options away, they all congregate at the same (only) places that are still available. People shouldn't be doing it but they are.
