The UK government has just committed £330bn in guarantees to compensate individuals and companies who will be compromised financially over the coming months which is good.

It's good and the mortgage thing is great. I notice there's nothing to support private renters or people in social/council housing though?

Reports of cases now coming from the likes of Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia and literally all of North, Central and South America now have cases.

 

Even Greenland have a case now I think!

Somalia is a random one.

Possibly because their rent would be paid under universal income if they were out of a job.

Republic democratic of the Congo have also reported a few cases. It would be horrible if they were to have a serious outbreak as they are already going through a terrible one with Measles, mainly affecting the under 5s. 6,000 deaths and over 250,000 cases.

Recently had an Ebola outbreak too. They are just waiting on the all clear from the WHO to tell them the outbreak is over.

I saw plans to build 10,000 ventilators urgently by the government who are prepared to wave a lot of red tape to get it done ASAP then they want 10,000 drops each month to build us up to 100,000 by year end. They need 14,000 quickly though as they want 20,000 to cope with the first peak they expect in early April and have gone to medical specialist manufacturers not JCB. 

can’t put anymore as I shouldn’t really say all this it was all hush hush under NDA’s etc

In engineering terms though they haven’t fucked about it’s like when we went to Iraq it’s big money being spent quickly to get shit done in fairness they have legitimate drawings and specifications and they aren’t worried about price, it’s about speed and quality

Well done if you make through the second one.

 

That's nothing. I've had a bronchoscopy and endoscopy done so that was easy to watch! She's lucky!

Patrick Vallance reckons we could have 55000 infected in the UK. 

What needs questioning is if we have that many among us how come when the South Koreans tested over 200,000 people in 2 weeks they only actually found 8000 had it.

Yeah think he mentioned there's a potential of that many if it's 1 in 1000 cases that result in death. Bit confusing to say that but perhaps it's their way of ensuring people avoid the social contact and ensure the social distancing they've been trying to promote. 55,000 is still a hell of a lot of people and say if that's true, you're more likely to come in to contact with one of them. 

I'm also guessing that 55,000 takes in to account those individuals who may have it but also show no symptoms, but still be able to pass it on.

Oh dear xD

Only 60 though? I genuinely thought it would have been more. Guess they all left in time.

Saw what you were buying in the shops and legged it :ph34r:
