Woosh ..that is now the situation yes , but it was NOT the choice we had in April .. we could have eliminated it from these Islands . By May June we were down to single figure infection rates .
Brexit, for once some facts.
- Thread starter flecc
- Start date
no we can't.
Too many of us has one or more Neanderthal genes...
And has been elected to rule over us.

Could this be anything to do with the Brexit impulse? a latent tendency to making decisions not to mix with more modern humans that leads to a slow and doleful extinction in damp remote locations?
Cancel that!t it rules out Scotland so it can't be right, however it does cover Yorkshire and the North East pretty well

Electric car owners are going to be fairly pleased with this article.
www.thisismoney.co.uk
Are electric family cars cheaper to own than petrol or diesel?
The claim that family-size EVs are cheaper to own over an extended period has been made by LeasePlan in its annual Car Cost Index report, looking at bills for fuel, tax, servicing and insurance.
Obviously English isn't this character's first language

If you are the "Clandestine Channel Threat Commander" Why haven't you been arrested as a dangerous nutter?

The contact-tracing app for England and Wales has only sent one alert about a coronavirus outbreak in a venue since it was launched two weeks ago, despite being used for millions of check-ins

Coronavirus: Contact-tracing app has only sent one alert about an outbreak in a venue
The absence of such alerts has raised questions as the mass closures of pubs and bars is expected in parts of the country.

Thought clandestine undercover national threat commander was his full title abbreiviate at will
During an aspergers moment I calculated that a small fiat I used to own burned £11332 over 100000 miles (100000/300 miles per tank multiplied by £34 per tank). If one buy a used tesla (old se models go for circa £30k) and use the free superchargers (not great for battery life, but survivable) this and congestion charge makes it a relatively affordable purchase.Electric car owners are going to be fairly pleased with this article.

Known it for ages and it's one of the reasons I bought mine over two years ago at 82 years old with the intention of keeping it indefinitely or as long as I'm able to drive safely.Electric car owners are going to be fairly pleased with this article.

They are not only ultimately cheaper for many, they are superior in so many ways, clean, silent, nicer to drive, better for the planet and safer on the road.

You are trying your best to troll. I will give you that Barry sh!tpeas.
But you're gonna have to try harder than that.
You just sound a bit silly if I'm honest

Yet another collision for number 10...
The government is on a collision course with the information commissioner over its refusal to publish a confidential report warning that the UK’s health system could not cope in a pandemic.
In a dramatic move, the Information Commissioner’s Office has ordered the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to hand over the report into Exercise Cygnus, or explain its decision for refusing, by 23 October.
Cygnus, a three-day simulation exercise in 2016, assessed the UK’s ability to cope with an influenza pandemic, but its findings are pertinent to the current coronavirus crisis.

Seeing as there's so much nonsense on COVID this article is a breath of fresh air (imho of course).
Basically - forget about a vaccine - COVID mutates way too fast for that (just like the HIV/AIDS virus did). It's written by an Indian so you get that perspective - but even so I thought it worth the read.

On 10th January WHO published:Seeing as there's so much nonsense on COVID this article is a breath of fresh air (imho of course).

Infection prevention and control during health care when novel coronavirus (nCoV) infection is suspected
(The advice might have been inadequate but it clearly recognised human to human transmission.)
The linked article says:
The WHO kept incorrectly repeating that (a) Covid-19 could not be transmitted from human to human and subsequently that (b) international air travel out of and into China was safe, nearly two months after researchers had found that both these propositions were false.
Not clear which two months was meant. But surely not back to 10th November 2019?
Possibly the tweet which reported the Chinese research?
But through the rest of January there was increasing concern and evidence of human to human transmission in WHO publications.

Listings of WHO's response to COVID-19
Read and search listings of how WHO has responded to the COVID-19 since 31 December 2019, including monthly numbers on press and member state briefings, expert networks, candidate vaccines and training.

Interestingly Vietnam locked down in January, extremely low infection rate and an economy that doesn't appear to have gone down the pan.
Meanwhile over here if you want to catch covid you'll have to get to the pub before 6pm, after that you're stuffed till next day. Couldn't make it up ... hang on ... Boris just did !
