Norm Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 So quite a big drop in daily deaths for us, compared to the Italians 2 weeks ago. Might as well grab onto any positive news we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are now 5,683 confirmed cases in the UK - a rise of 665 on Saturday. Considerably fewer than Italy at this stage. (They had 133 in 24 hours) That said the news is saying our rate is somehow going up quicker than Italy/China. That may be the infection rate however?

Victorian Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 So it is an increase below the trend, which is good, but not any evidence of progress. If the trend continues in the same vein we'll see increases below and above the average trend. As I said earlier, it would be virtually impossible to expect the exponential trend to be arrested so early in the spread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay strong everybody we will get through this. Have also been told the UK are accelerating vaccines for this. America and Russia also seem to think they aren't far away from cracking it. What i will say though these selfish people, that aren't self isolating and are gathering in large groups. We could have this virus conquered within 2 months, just do the right thing for **** sake.

AlimOzturk Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) Annoys me more than anything that what little there is left to do..i.e going out for a run, a walk in the park ect might be shut down because arseholes can't listen to what they are ****ing told. People told "don't panick buy" but they raid the shelves instead. This has proven to me that society...in general are full of complete and utter helmets who deserve to get Ill.
