  1. Wonderful, a great character. We forget about such people at our peril.
  2. I have a Norwich away ticket sitting on my desk but there’s no point in chasing that up yet. The situation regarding my two season tickets is more significant with over three hundred pounds’ worth of value left on them.
  3. That’s irrelevant. They aren’t in power so anything else is speculation.
  4. Disgusting. Manslaughter at least.
  5. Ah. That probably explains why I haven’t won for a while
  6. Me? Costco? Do I seem that cheap?
  7. They're not idiots. They are people wanting to get on with some sort of worthwhile life.
  8. I'd just done a quick search without any clear results. The end of May seemed to be a possible date for its implementation. Give the guy a break, he's only had two months to come up with this idea. /s
  9. Very good That seems to sum it all up nicely. "We are only testing those who are almost dead to determine if that's what they will die of"
  10. The proposed quarantine will only apply to arrivals by air. They are only proposals at the moment and only three months late.
  11. Is there a significant difference between the red zone and the green?
  12. You’d have to run it as a double season, much like they used to do in Scotland.
  13. Anywhere where people shout a lot and spray their spittle over others is a dangerous place. Obviously this rules out St. Mary!’s Restaurants aren’t good. Parks, shopping centres, garden centres, recycling centres are hardly more dangerous than usual.
  14. That Chinese link (I think it was this one) found only one case of transmission outdoors between two neighbours who stopped for a chat. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.04.20053058v1.full.pdf https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.04.20053058v1.full.pdf
  15. No I’m not. I’m stuck here at home like everybody else
  16. This one for a start: http://eureferendum.com/blogview.aspx?blogno=87598
  17. Try this source: http://www.eureferendum.com/blogview.aspx?blogno=87603#disqus_thread This Chinese study is interesting: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.04.20053058v1.full.pdf And Dr. north’s blog is always on the ball: http://eureferendum.com/blogview.aspx?blogno=87598
  18. Officially it’s called COVID-19 https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/technical-guidance/naming-the-coronavirus-disease-(covid-2019)-and-the-virus-that-causes-it#:~:text=ICTV%20announced%20“severe%20acute,on%2011%20February%202020.
  19. It’s not ‘highly infectious’ else everybody would have caught it by now. Infection depends upon prolonged exposure. Fleeting contact and small dosage is not sufficient.
  20. The point is that home is not the safest place. Obviously individual circumstances vary but if there are several of you living there and somebody, maybe a key worker, brings the virus into the household then the close proximity and prolonged exposure will encourage its spread. Merely ‘staying at home’ is not the best approach.
  21. The UK government won’t use private labs.
  22. I’m with you all the way, Ducky.
  23. It would not have add a lot of difference, not whilst we were concentrating infectees in hospitals and then releasing them early into care homes. Plus letting over 10 million enter the country from abroad without restrictions.
  24. I never said it was a proof. But if one person goes out and touches a door handle and catches it that would be very unfortunate. But two thirds of those hospitalised? There’s something going on here that’s worthy of further investigation.
  25. ??? Well here’s a thing. In New York two thirds of new hospitalisations are of people who stayed at home. (From about 1:00 in) https://video.foxnews.com/v/6154826983001#sp=show-clips
