11th UK death. I was expecting at least 3 today given trends.

Coronavirus is weak [HASHTAG]#nojinx[/HASHTAG]
 
Remember when the AIDS epidemic broke and they said that we'd all know someone who would be affected by it?

That was a load of bullocks, too.

Second person just got cured of aids funnily enough ... Not many cured in 35 years that but Luckily the dallas cowboy saved many by running the drugs needed from over the border of Mexico and into the States.

They already had this drug working on patients but decided fk em pull the plug on this drug let it spread....i wonder what institute that was :bandit:

My mates Dad died from it after a contaminated transfusion, that he needed due to his haemophilia.

AIDS transmission slowed due to safe sex and a colossal public heath campaign. You sound like Anne Widdecombe you ****ing dickhead.

I can’t see anywhere in that where it says anything like that... can you give the quote?
"Results: Cardiac complications were found in 42 of the 53 (79.25%) patients: tachycardia (n=15), electrocardiography abnormities (n=11), diastolic dysfunction (n=20), elevated myocardial enzymes (n=30), and AMI (n=6). "

Yeah that’s not saying 80% of people who get Covid will have ongoing heart problems, it’s referring to the people being studied who are part of the small % who get hospitalised. Unless I’m reading that wrong?

Think we need to be careful not to be spreading misinformation and panic by overstating the effect it has.

Out of interest, why are you so keen to make out like it’s just a bit of a cold doing the rounds?

I’m not - he posted a wildly inaccurate comment based on what the study he posted actually said which doesn’t help anything. I think it’s highly likely he just misread it (or I have!) so I’m not saying he is trying to overstate the effects on purpose. But I do think it’s dangerous to sensationalise things, it’s how we end up with ******s panic buying toilet roll.

I’ll leave LL to reply to the assertion that his comment was wildly inaccurate, although given what he does for a living I suspect he’s more clued up than most. Your entire approach to the issue has been “edgy” for want of a better word. No surprise that you’ve attracted the support of one of the forum’s chief deniers. There’s nothing to see here!
 
It’s a small sample size which is inevitable at this stage. Could mean that the numbers are underestimated too, of course.

Lots of stats flying around our business mostly about how shoppers are behaving, estimates on sales impacts, boring **** etc. but older people are generally the least concerned at this stage, largely because of the different types of media they consume versus younger people.

The block I live in has a few old folk and preggo women. People are being very neighbourly, which is nice.
