    It was probably posted on here somewhere and I missed it but I only found out today that Spain are only recording Corona related deaths for those who die in hospital. Those passing away at home or care homes are not being tested even if Corona was the suspected cause

    Figures here are at 4%.
    Scientists are saying the lockdown should continue as is until it's nearer 60/70% or a vaccine is developed.

    I wonder how many Chinese have travelled to Europe this year.

    One statistic. This year on average there have been 108 flights from China to Italy alone...

    I don't actually know what happened in Scotland. Had enough to contend with here. Perhaps you could enlighten me as to the faults you have so clearly identified. What did she do wrong? Links would be appreciated, as very little of the detail makes it south. But be very clear though, that unlike Dimwitted Doris down here, right from the very outset she said that mistakes would be made, by most people, including her. Dimwitted Doris & his tory sheeple would never admit to making a mistake. Power is more important than truth.

    So let's have some links. Looking forward to tracing the timeline & decisions you suggest took place.

    It's the same in this country, I understand. Heard it on the BBC news, whilst watching with the family. We all looked at each other in surprise, rewound it & confirmed. Guess there are good reasons for it. I suggest one good one is that they don't get tested in care homes atm, either before or after they catch it, & the post mortem tests are dropped in favour of saving lives rather than recording deaths, which you can't fault really.

    There are still planes flying country to country.

    Question: have we ever put any visitor to the UK into a 14 day quarantine? I don't know the answer, but fear I can guess it.

    She did exactly the same as Boris, same day lock down, same day schools closed, same day everything, it's not rocket science, your list of Boris faults, are also hers.

    So says you. Again, as usual, an opinion presented as fact. Not one single piece of evidence to support your assertion. You could be right. I honestly don't know the details, but clearly neither do you, or you would be trying to embarrass me with links to the backup data. Instead, you're just trying ....

    Do you live on the planet MARS, you put up a big list of things you say Boris got wrong, and yet have no idea about anything that happens in Scotland, maybe you need to go away for a month or 2 and look up some facts instead of posting about stuff you know nothing about. Do you not own a TV, radio or never seen a newspaper, on my TV, I see Jimmy Crankie every day, as I'm sure does everyone else, go buy a TV, and turn it on.

    April 10 (GMT)

    • 3936 new cases and 129 new deaths in Germany


      A study by the University of Bonn has tested a randomized sample of 1,000 residents of the town of Gangelt (an epicenter of the outbreak in Germany) and found that 2% of the population was currently infected and 14% were carrying antibodies suggesting that they had already been infected — whether or not they experienced any symptoms. Eliminating an overlap between the two groups, the team concluded that 15% of the town have been infected with the virus [source]

      If these findings are correct, Germany’s actual death rate could be as low as 0.22% (2,607 deaths / (2,607 cases that have resulted in death + 1,172,000 cases that have resulted in recovery)). Assuming 14% of the German population of 83,700,000 (1,172,000 people) have been infected and have recovered. [source] [source]

    I'm in North Yorkshire and that number, although official, is massively under the real one.

    The UK numbers are really ****e. They have only been testing hospital admissions and it wasn't until middle of last week that NHS staff were getting tests. Now that testing has finally been ramped up the new case numbers will soar. Unfortunately it's the death rate we need to look at. It should start to drop hopefully in the next 14 days.

    Was interesting until, the link between an epicenter having possibly 15% having had the virus was then linked to the whole of Germany having maybe 14% which was totally unsubstantiated
