I think I mentioned some weeks (months?) ago that our local hospital had switched off its air conditioning due to Covid-19.

To use a hackneyed phrase, I'd count the teaspoons if Johnson had visited. Not that I really expect him to steal them, but my level of trust is so low that I couldn't allow my assumption to be unverified.

Very easy to read. Interesting. Some of it makes so much sense. The UK emphasis on R was patently, obviously wrong. Even at the time it was being much discussed, it did not make sense. The factor that I think lacks emphasis in that article is speed. Time from suspecting an outbreak to finding...

Shades of Napoleon XIV. :-) Ursula von der Leyen might, or might not, appreciate the irony.

The current restrictions are working so well... Leak reveals possible harsher three-tier Covid plan for England A new three-tier lockdown system is planned for England, with leaked government documents paving the way for potential harsher restrictions including the closure of pubs and a ban on...

Anyone tell me what is so wrong with national togetherness the rest of the time? Why the tories have been effecting policies which work very strongly against such togetherness? (And how do we manage togetherness when we have to be two metres apart? :) ) Robert Jenrick calls for 'national...

Today I had my first false NHS COVID-19 app alert. My phone showed an alert that there had been exposure - but when I went to the app, no sign of anything. This has been widely reported - and is supposed to be in the process of being fixed. But any remnant faith people might have in, well...

Obviously we can blame Paul McCartney for this. With Mull of Kilt Hire…

Do tories need remedial classes? The rest of us realised how bad Johnson would be without the need to appoint him and watch the unfolding disaster. With Tory MPs restless over the government’s performance, which has seen it lose a huge poll lead over Labour since the start of the pandemic, the...

There's usually quite a bit of that at weddings in Scotland. :)

How much is new? Boris Johnson agreed to Dominic Cummings's 'terrorist demands' for total control of No 10 operation in order to secure his services as an adviser, explosive biography reveals...

He has judged the time right - just as the tory conference starts... Keir Starmer: Boris Johnson has ‘lost control’ of Covid-19 pandemic Labour leader blasts government for its lack of leadership and U-turns, as he outlines his own five-point plan to fight the virus

Whose? :)

Looks like Trump might not make it. Based on this: Coronavirus live news: Boris Johnson says Trump will come through Covid well ;):D

"Should" was not added on any of the places I read the quote.

Yes - he said something like that around the time he was taking it. But if it is as safe and effective as he claimed early on, why wouldn't he continue taking it? The current situation shows that having taken it some time ago didn't stop him getting it.

Speaking of spreading, reminds me of our old fave, Tom Lehrer. I guess Biden didn't get it because he is not one of Trumps friends.

What? Play-Didoh. Why on earth would she have more luck with this MP than the rest of the population?

If all the republicans infect each other, they won't be able to go and vote in person. So will have to rely on the postal votes they say are totally corrupted... And my goodness, they are trying to achieve that cross-infection. Mike Lee is positive.
