We have just taken further measures at our place, We have installed 2 Thermal cameras that check peoples temperatures before entering the site and have furloughed 40 members of staff that are most at risk including things like Asthma sufferers or anyone that is considered high risk through age or other health reasons...

That should have been done ages ago in England. Other than Cardiff and Vale, all car parking for hospitals in Wales are free.

Mate the count of confirmed cases is a lagging indicator. A person who was exposed to corona today would not become a confirmed case for around 12 days. I.e no symptoms for around 5 days. 3-5 to get sick enough to seek out a test and 2 days minimum for a test result. So basically that means the current official/confirmed count reflects the number of people who had the virus around 12 days ago. But the actually number of people affected right now is higher than that, by 12 days of additional spread. Better indicators of how countries are going is by looking at whether that country even has a true handle on the size of their outbreak. Indicators of that are the number of tests performed per million people, and the percentage of those tests that are coming up positive. In Peru theres been 39k tests performed, for 4k cases. So you have about a 10% positive rate. Ecuador have run 13k tests for 4k cases. That's a 30% positive rate. Very high, and a stronger indicator that the 4k count of confirmed cases is just the tip of the iceberg in Ecuador. In some places that positive test rate is much lower (like Australia, or South Korea who have run a high number of tests and are around 1.8% positive. Those countries can be more confident that their number of confirmed cases is fairly accurate. I would guess that even if Ecuador have the same number of confirmed cases as Peru by the end of this Ecuador will still have more fatalities and it will be less due to their healthcare system quality and more due to them having a larger outbreak.

Your cases did not rise because of fish.

So you have only been together for 5 minutes then... You are still at that stage where your concern for her being upset about something is genuine... At the 5 year mark you still ask if there is a problem but have to start faking the concern... after 10 years+ you do things on purpose to wind her up hoping she won't speak to you...

I got 19 for reals.

Thanks to Google I got 25.

Did anyone else who got asked to work from home during this period get a £10,000 pay increase to cover their expenses???

You didn’t post a link? Unless you mean TalkFootball365 is a great site. And then, yeah I’m aware I post here daily.

Just proves Nobby Solano was right to go out at night instead

As special as the people of Peru are I dont believe you'll see cases confirmed that quickly.

Apparently Dark Side of the Ring have released an episode on Droz which is a good one.

God that name takes me back north Always used to think it was dead posh growing up as they only ever existed in the nice towns out in the countryside and never the shitholes. Started going M&S these days for the same reasons. Always silent compared to the Sainsburys next door, but well stocked and you can see the better quality it is. I'm the youngest in there by about 30 years

Jesus.… imagine having to live next to this bloke on a daily basis... https://9gag.com/gag/aqKA7AL/ladies-and-gentlemen-this-is-what-peak-performance-looks-like

Yeah, I get that there's better players that probably should be in my XI... but ya know how it goes - I can only really judge things based off what I've seen with my own eyes. And unfortunately, we had much better teams before I was alive compared to after I was alive. Hansen's considered by many to be our best ever centreback by a long, long, long distance - so I'm sure had I seen him, I'd have him in my XI. We can all probably do a "best ever" Liverpool XI that'll have a shitload of the same players - those "legends" that are obviously great because those names come up in so many XIs that were pivotal moments in the club's history and they've etched themselves forever in history as some of the most successful players to play in England while with us. Unfortunately for me, I missed most of that and I think the first year I remember of football is 1993, Fowler's debut season. I think I'd been forced to watch it with my dad probably since I was just an alien-looking-like newborn and I was too young to ever really watch it click, but watching this kid explode onto the scene and just score on everyone was what made it all click with me. So ya know, that's gonna be my first like "starting point" for the Liverpool players/sides I judge.

I've realised through this how shit Asda and Sainsbury's are compared to booths. Yes the latter is a smaller business and is a bit more expensive but their shelves are always completely full and the quality of their food is much higher. Booths is closer to me than the others but, until lately, it's not somewhere I've ever shopped too often apart from when buying their hot food on my dinners at work. The quality of fanny who go shopping in there is higher too.

From my experience, it sounds like a Code Red. She is on.

Not quite true on a few levels. They weren't "all" saying herd immunity requires a vaccine. A vaccine is an option to achieve herd immunity, which is in all diseases of which such has occurred in the last 50 years. The original stance was that the virus would keep coming back for years until each community developed herd immunity. No vaccine was mentioned. Lockdown measures were not implemented earlier because they were modelling the impact of each measure and the timing in which to do that. As was said at the time there are negative health consequences with each measure in the modelling. Isolation causes sedation which leads to premature death for those with particular conditions for example. They also noted concern for long term isolation not being followed, suggesting that because of that if they go too early it wont work due to rule breakers. They were waiting for community outbreaks to reach particular levels they modelled to be optimal for the response. They explicitly said the aim was to broaden the peak, flatten it. That goal is no different to the approach today. To say the approach wasn't people centred is to completely miss the argument laid forth by people with decades of experience. The end failure of the early response was really the modelling. It was wrong and missing huge confounding variables. We lost time because of that. We didn't mobilise testing and ventilators earlier because of that, just as the French didn't mobilise in 1938 because they didn't see what was coming.The premise of the argument was built on bad data and that was exposed when published and when available for public scrutiny. Allowing experts from outside SAGE to chip in, putting weight behind those within SAGE and government who disagreed with the premise behind the work. The lesson therefore resides in a slow pace to transparency. That no organisation has a monopoly on expertise in a country like the UK.

Watched it too. It was a decent movie with basically no story.
