My daughter will get us some milk etc but before long I am going to need a top up and things like washing powder and liquids are heavy. So I ordered on line, well I tried to order on line. I completed a list which was by no complete but would do. I got to the vinegar stroke on the choose a slot page of the Tesco website. No slots available to the last option of 11 April. So non available to pick. Went to Morrison's and tried to order. Another long winded procedure but the option of slots ended on 28 March. That's an hour of my life I will never get back. I'm sure you have learnt the lesson now mate, but you should select your slot before you start shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and the infections are not having a serious enough effect to make the infected individual visit a hospital. So you painted a false picture to blatantly troll.

Wolford6 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 The 2017/18 overall all-cause influenza-attributable mortality was estimated to be 25.4 (95%CI 25.0-25.8) per 100,000 population; 118.2 (116.4-119.9) for persons aged 65. Extending to the European population this translates into over-all 152,000 deaths. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1198743X19300588 Under Scrutiny by the Right-On Thought Police Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it Coronavirus? Who knows? What is indicated is that 0.1% of the population have felt bad enough to report to a hospital. I do know that ( a ) it wasn't Pneumonia, because I've had that and ( b ) it never got so unbearable that I dialled 911 or whatever number it is. If there are 300,000 infections: how many were detained in hospital in comparison to ... how many were given some medicine to taket and sent home with the instruction to ring back if they were struggling to breathe?

Damien Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 THREE junior doctors are reported to have been infected by coronavirus in the same hospital as health workers step up their calls for more support from the Government. The medics, all aged 30, have been placed on ventilators and are being treated by colleagues in London, health sources told The Sun on Sunday. An insider told the paper: “It is beginning to affect a lot more young people. Some will get mild symptoms — but not all will, and what has happened to the junior doctors shows that." https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1258665/London-news-coronavirus-latest-news-junior-doctors-infected-london-hospital-bma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjonn Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Thought the documentary was very good on Channel 4 tonight. I like the way at the beginning the expert described how the infection spread. In summary... typical spread from a infected person for this virus is 1-3... take each of those 3 and they spread it onwards in similar way.. Typically that goes across 10 layers.. thus that original one person spreads it to 59,000 people. His expertise says that 10% will of those be hospitalised. Some say it may be 20%. If you haven't watched the documentry, go Channel 4 equivalent of i-player. Well worth watching for the full hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game.

Looking at those figurees, it would appear that over 300million people in Europe are plagued by, at worst, 300,000 infections. A stunning 0.1% of the population. 300k infections globally.

gingerjon Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 All set up for home schooling. No one seems to have told the system that all the schools have been saying they will be using to share work and tasks with pupils. So it's down.
