    Thoroughly overplayed.
    All the tweet says is the media need to be careful and yes you did say his comment was on the basis of no data.
    He is right SARS has a IFR of 8-10%, MERS 30%. Covid-19 is between 0.66 & 1.33%

    This is his post in the Lancet a few days later.

    https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)30212-9/fulltext

    "There has been an understandable focus on containing the spread of 2019-nCoV. But less attention has been given to the need for sufficient clinical capacity to deliver care to infected individuals. The viral pneumonia caused by 2019-nCoV can be extremely severe. In the first reports of patients with 2019-nCoV, a third required admission to intensive care, with the majority developing adult respiratory distress syndrome. Even high-income countries with technically advanced health systems would struggle to provide the necessary care to potentially large numbers of patients with severe complications of 2019-nCoV."

    And this his tweet a day later

    I awaited in the shadows for 5 years, standing by for the right moment to craft the perfect post on the problems of public transport in a Forest village within the South East of England.

    ... In reality, I just read this forum, forgot I had a login and then i've been driven into posting through lockdown boredom.

    First of all none of that was in the tweet we're talking about, and the tweet wasn't the one of main issue, the main issue and context are, he is now blaming someone else for not acting a week after when he said there was no worry.
    There were also many complicated reasons why action was so slow, we know that. So his now crying on BBC blaming everyone once for not acting a week after he said no worries is laughable, that's without the BBC again doing its division ****, during a pandemic.


    "Covid-19 is between 0.66 & 1.33% " is based off what, known cases? It's certainly not based off of sufficient data to understand 1 how dangerous it is and 2 the fatality rate

    Let me layman the understanding how we know how "dangerous" it is.

    To assess how dangerous this is compared to common corona virus
    You need 10,000 cases of common corona with respiratory infection
    10,000 cases of COVID 19 with respiratory infection
    and you need to compare the data to see HOW more dangerous it is. We don't have these studies done yet, except one in France I think which actually shows comparable danger when both common and covid 19 give respiratory infection (I've not read the study, so can't vouch for anything in it).

    Then you can assess how more dangerous it is.

    To assess mortality you need to identify at the numbers infected, which need not be exact, and we will probably never have good data on that because of the nature of the outbreak where in all likelihood at least 60%+ of cases will never end up in any data set, only guestimates will exist

    I also cannot speak on anything he tweeted afterward.

    1 week?
    where did you get that from?

    This is not how IFR are generally derived, but as you are the expert I will leave you to it.

    Actually, I;ve been listening to a couple of well known experts on this topic. The lancet guy, is certainly not an expert anything like the people I am listening to.
    he is very interested in immigration though, conveniently, and his playing it down certainly would seem to be in line with his Lancet Immigration and Health work.

    Just saying.

    He's also certainly an ideologue (twitter feed), and science and ideology are generally a bad mix, editors are also editors. Leave the research to the research scientists.

    he tweets on 24th of Jan and now says we should have been closed down in feb and it's governments fault.

    Of course I would wager he's not a fan of the Tory government, just a feeling <whistle>

    So you waited 5 years for the opportunity to craft the perfect post and then didn't do it??

    You need to swear more and make claims that you can't back up and that piss off at least half the people on here. Either that or call HIAG a ****.
