Site Supporter Spider Posted September 21, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) They may as well have let Reeves and Mortimer do the update given the response. Half the country think they're fearmongering. Half the country want a full lockdown and wages off the government. It's rapidly turning into another Brexit where lines are being drawn and sides chosen because you're asking people to predict the future. The social media driven zeitgeist is upon us and if I were Boris I'd just be honest and stand up tomorrow, tell everyone to fuck off and sling a carrier bag full of shit at the oppostion benches before resigning and fucking off to Italy to spend the next 10 years being wanked off by Berlosconi's harem.

With the way the economy is going you're more likely to be wanking off Bassini, round the side of the club shop for enough to buy a pot noodle from home bargains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Does anybody think that the Government is handling this well? I know its uncharted territory, but the handling has been pretty poor, and I think Boris hasn't shown himself to be a great leader throughout this, as he's generally nowhere to be seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Carlos Posted September 21, 2020 Moderators Share Posted September 21, 2020 I think time will tell, 5, 10, 20 years on. There's no credible opposition. Uncharted times, lot of people with lots of opinions, none of them want it actually on their conscience. Kier Starmer would run a fucking mile if Bozza called a snap election.

ICU numbers aren't a great way of measuring total deaths of covid, as more people are dying at home and in care homes, but they are a good way of measuring infection spread, although a few weeks behind.

Blondi Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Does anyone know if my Mrs who is a mobile hairdresser, is she allowed into somebody's house?

Escobarp Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I’m not aware of any changes to people working? Tradesmen etc can still go into people’s houses so I can’t see why not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted September 21, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted September 21, 2020 Few Leyton Orient players tested positive Gundogan for the massives. 2 people I know who are definitely well behaved when it comes to masks/distancing, so assuming from kids at school.

DaisyHWanderer Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Interesting point I saw on Twitter earlier, Peely (or someone else) might be able to shed light on if it is valid or not. To get a test you pretty much have to state that you have symptoms, unless you’re key worker etc. Or sent one in the post etc., therefore could a shit load of asymptomatic cases be being classified as symptomatic? I personally know a few young people who have tested positive and never developed any symptoms, they all had to enter that they had symptoms before getting the test. It doesn’t change the effects of the virus to those who are symptomatic but it’s an interesting point to consider regarding the data.

So why are they going for tests in the first place if they’ve no symptoms? Because someone they have been near has tested positive I assume?

On that basis I'd say the government has done a reasonable job. No one perfect and all having to deal with similar issues. We'll learn more as and when countries have their inquiries and investigations. Can't satisfy everyone- clear from comments here, but balancing economy and public health must be really difficult. Was talking to the mother of a lady in the High dependency ward earlier: numbers still low in hospital but a little higher. She described seeing her daughter as being genuinely scared in the height of the situation a while ago, which was unusual for someone experienced who usually takes things in her stride. Face also slightly bruised and swollen from continued wearing of PPE. Not a place any of us should be prepared to happily return to just because it might not make sense to follow a particular bit of guidance etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
