[QUOTE="Yoshimitsu, post: 991588, member: 71899"] One of the protagonists on this thread is going to be wrong. Personally I hope it's everybody but ncurd. However, there are dissenting voices like this bloke: [MEDIA=youtube]4SZBuHFzYlw[/MEDIA] and this bloke [MEDIA=youtube]dcJDpV-igjs[/MEDIA] The lack of measures to manage travel to / from Italy is at the very least worrying. Seriously we're training flight crew to look out for Covid-19..... At worst? Negligent in my opinion. The decisions of the political class are balancing things that matter to them. Public health Economic panic Supply chains Social cohesion Virologists are only of any real use for the first of these and even then within bounds they understand. I suspect in this day and age anyone contracted to advise the government is also obliged not to release data / information to the contrary into the public arena. People in the U.K are now dying of Covid-19 (actually that's not 100% true people are dying that have it). The message currently is carry on as normal and wash your hands more often. Should this go pear shaped when Boris says "there's nothing more that could have been done" just remember what actually was and when. There's a balance playing out here and it's £ vs human life. As I said. Here's hoping that ncurd's experts are right and we're all worrying over nothing (or not the apocalypse at least). Currently the mortality rate in Italy is over 3% and their ICU capability is overwhelmed. I really don't want to see that in the U.K. [/QUOTE]
