It is highly workable ,if the driver has disposable gloves.,and stays away from the recipient.

That is good news. I cannot but worry that the liberal education of the British Ruling class stopped before they did geometric progression and power laws Even implementation of these rules a day earlier , halves the infection rates.

That is kinda correct except that is assuming resources are thrown at it. If 20% need some form of hospital treatment, some of them will survive without it, but more won't . Then if hospital treatment is curtailed, the 3% becomes 4% or 5% ... That is the unknown What WW1 cost the British was...

Yes.. but excepting the elections, these are community led not Government led. The FA made the decision, not the State, the WRU were shamed into it by the FA.

Woosh, your analysis will ignore the fact that there will be a weakened population post infection, so that other, currently less virulent infections eg mrsa will have a field day . .". when troubles come, they come not singly but in battalions..." Recovery from any infection makes one more not...

Flecc.. the UK have done nothing worthwhile in Phase 2 containment. The Phase 1 response was good, with contact tracing etc, but Phase 2 is now poor. I think you need to re read the earlier post of today detailing plausible scenarios. The only data which is reliable is that from China. Now the...

The next phase is being considered. There is almost certainly a UK equivalent, but the Irish 1947 Health Act does give extraordinary powers to the Local Public Health Director.. Obviously a medical civil servant, regarding forced detainment and quarantine. These are being discussed, and merely...

Excellent article.

Getting it is one thing, dieing of it is another. If the infection rate curve is integrated over a longer time, more people survive,as the medical facilities can more readily cope.

I will be able to report back on that. We have basically taken a lockdown strategy effective from 6:00 pm today. All Colleges and Schools closed, ,any indoor venue with 100 plus not allowed ,any outdoor venue 500 + . It does not seem that it requires policing, as every public organisation...

Just two related threads. Ireland has just gone into quasi lockdown ..all schools etc closed. From now until the date of the original Brexit date ..29th March. During the long Brexit "will it won't it," of last year , the supply chains were building up reserves of materials ,so the...

Yes UK and Ireland remain exempt. However I have two difficulties with this. Granted the incidence is less here than mainland Europe, but whether Golf resorts factor in is problematic. There is nothing to stop French people travelling to London and on to SF on a 9 hour flight. There is some...

I read ..or more accurately attempted to read an article written by Chinese medical staff in the Lancet, yesterday and it makes grim reading. Its not the economic cost of older people but the how efficacious the process is. Risk factors or indicators of death include the obvious .. lung...

I understand that dipping ones wick, three times per day in Domestos ,will also rid one of herpes.... And the desire to live.

As I see it ,with careful management and ample resources, and a low rate of infection, the 3% rate is real, whereas if any of the three factors are lacking it can go to to 6% or higher. The key point being what fraction of the 20% are allowed to become critical care patients.

The advantage of weak government. As some might be aware, the Irish elections of a month ago has not resulted in any new government. The old one therefore remains in a caretaker capacity. The UK Government in contrast has a whopping majority. By today an emergency cabinet meeting has agreed...

The better statistics are from China ,where the numbers are sufficient for analysis. 3097 deaths in 80966 confirmed cases. Source .. Corona virus statistics ..an Android app based on John Hopkins data. Again it may be underrepresented and maybe some people in China just shrugged it off...

Again not sure. The Senate keeps having partial elections , so the Republican party might lose a few seats in the next phase. A number of fair minded conservative voters will have looked at the impeachment "trial " with incredulity. That the Senate decided not to allow any witnesses be called...

I understand the need for Vaseline ..that tight outfit will chafe unbearably in the important areas.

If those are your principles, can I ask for alternatives... It seems to work wonders with your politicans
