OMG...you've been consumed by this Covid thing. It's truly taken over. Apologies for intruding on your obsession.  I really hope both your keyboard, and you ,recover. 

 

You need to try stopping making a complete tit of yourself. You have now gone from being more knowledgeable on covid 19 than leading experts are to babbling vacuous, pointless drivel. 

Take a look across this thread, if you do that you will see I rarely post on it at all, far less than you do in actual fact.

Thus I have to return the advice, hope you get over this obsession and your fantasy of viral expertise. Pointing out you're talking utter shite isn't an obsession. I'm already bored with it but i'm sure you will be here obsessing long after I lose interest.

Try not listening to Trump.  I never do. That tends to help.

Or, alternatively, continue educating/entertaining all and sundry with your self proclaimed viral knowledge. Garnered from bouts of thinking for yourself while entirely ignoring the experts.

I expect someone will pass it on to Dr Fauci etc. Who doesn't know this virus is going away.

Contrary to the opinions of you and that other world renowned expert on absolutely everything Donnie Trumpo.

19 times Trump said the coronavirus would go away

But obviously don't listen to this idiot.

I never even mentioned covid, I spoke of "diseases that plagued our ancestors" and further mentioned bubonic plague as an example. But if it's covid you want to talk about aids still bears no comparison in terms of an ability to infect a population.

An estimated 3 million Americans have been infected by covid in a matter of months with over 200,000 dead and that's with the likes of lockdowns etc being in place trying to prevent the spread.

They're not and never were wandering around Walmart or going to work worrying about catching aids. If you don't get the difference there is nothing else anyone can say to you. I suspect most rational people instantly see the difference which is major.

And as for covid on the way out what planet are you on? Must be planet Trump.

Tell you what, you need to get in touch with Dr Fauci, the top virologist in their nation and give him the benefit of your expertise. Because he has no idea this is on the way out. 

If he agrees after listening to your expert advice then I will agree too. Until then you're talking utter shite  and I have not a clue why. It's frankly bizarre.

Forgive me if I think that some non entity on a football forum thinking for himself is talking utter shite. When the top virologist in the US is saying they could be heading towards 100,000 new cases a day.

Again, what planet are you on? Planet Trump?
 

 

Incidentally if you become ill don't go to an exert. What do they know? Just think for yourself.

 

And if you think it's bizarre that I wouldn't give a flying **** what a non entity on a football forum thinks in comparison to what a world leading expert is saying that's even more bizarre.

Hey, I was thinking for myself today, pulled this pearl of wisdom straight out of my self thinking arse. Issac Newton, an expert I wouldn't listen to because hey who listens to experts, thinks that gravity is an attractive force.

Bullshit, it's a result of invisible magic leprechauns pushing everything down to the ground and tying magical lassos between orbiting objects. Hows that for thinking for myself? No doubt you give it some credibility because it doesn't come from an expert. They know jack shit. Right?

You're becoming wacko like throwing around claims that anybody at all desires to see the worst possible scenario for this virus. When all they're doing is listening to the experts and ignoring the uneducated babble of football forum non entities.

How many others heads are you inside by the way? Aside from Trumps? Get out of that particular head because that's certain crazyville territory. 

You are accusing someone of becoming wacko? Really?

Talking on a football forum about a nonentity on a football forum is a sure sign that wackiness has taken full hold.

Really now. Someone who says I don't listen to experts I think for myself then pontificates on a global pandemic while talking utter rot contrary to expert opinion is not qualification for being a bit wacko?

Who then veers off into rambling about an obsession with a topic he obsesses over far more than I do? I can spend weeks taking no part at all in this topic. How obsessive is that? Getting the absurdity here?

And anyone who simply listens to these experts rather than the non educated wackiness is the one who is a bit wacky? Peculiar concept considering it probably encompasses the majority of the population.

Maybe i'm a complete wacko. Since I also consider flat earthers moon hoax nuts and others as wackos too.

And incidentally when it comes to the science of this pandemic we're all non entities here. That includes me but then I don't claim any pseudo knowledge to.

I started off correcting you about your assertion that it "spreads through the population like wildfire". It doesn't. Despite the "experts", like Neil Ferguson,  telling us it would infect up to 80% of the population, it hasn't . Closer to 1%. He was clearly ,and not for the first time, talking pish. 

 

I was referring specifically to Scotland, where we are close to eradicating it and to the rUK where the figures are heading to that point too.

You started your inane ramblings about Trump, name checking him in every other sentence. Some experts think it may well mutate and disappear and there is evidence that it may well be less virulent now than it was. It may become endemic and we live with it as we do the common cold. We may need a vaccine. We may not. Who knows?  Even in the States, using your 3 million cases, higher than the official stats, that equates to only 0.9% of the population.  Experts, of whom there appear to be increasing numbers willing to throw in their tuppence worth, and politicians need to dial down the rhetoric and put this virus in perspective with all the other illnesses and risks in life. I hope that's clear.

Let me correct you,  when I referenced spreading like wildfire I made no mention of covid-19, I was talking of bubonic plague, so you need to open your pseudo expert eyes and demonstrate an ability to read and absorb.

In reality I don't know how quickly this could spread if unrestrained, because i'm not an expert and it hasn't been unrestrained. And outside your self thinking fantasy bubble your not an expert euither. Try grasping that.

As for Scotland yes Scotland has done well With a massive months long lockdown which prevented the spread. Is that penetrating the pseudo expert bubble??

Are you so far gone you can't comprehend that infections would have been massively greater without that lockdown? That's the 80% infection scenario they predicted.

I have seen zero expert opinion that this thing will just disappear and that we may not even need a vaccine. From any experts but that idiot Trump and you.

"We may need a vaccine. We may not. Who knows?"

I saw the Trumpet say exactly the same thing on a video. You're clearly at his level of wackiness. Is that your go to expert? The Trumpet? An expert who wondered about the efficacy if drinking disinfectant. 

And you have provided no alleged experts who back this utter shite up. None other than you and you effectively quoting the alpha Trumpet in fact. Nothing but Trumpet style babble akin to 'some people say' 

You need to get it into your head that when it comes to pandemic sciences you can't just think for yourself and come up with anything but worthless nonsense. It's the very reason we have experts across all sciences rather than self thinkers like you.

I hope that's clear. 

And here we have the Trumpet backing you up in a Washington Post video.

The official numbers are just the people who have been tested. The true number will be considerably higher (2.85 million was the estimate in late May).

Why do you think the infection rate may not have been as high as feared? Nothing to do with the entire country being in lockdown for months, I suppose.

I suspect the infection rate may have been higher than feared pre-lockdown.

 

I base this purely on anecdotal evidence and the fact that I don't trust the authorities (the Chinese or ours) to be totally honest with us about when Covid went international and arrived in the UK.

 

I was set for one of those antibody tests until they were pulled. Hopefully something else becomes available soon, although I recognise that this seems to be no longer a priority on account of the relative success of the half-arsed lockdown - especially in Jockland.

Just a few observations that I've made over the last week or so.

 

Seen people wearing face masks, which cover their mouth only and leave their nose exposed, or are so loose you can see their face from side on, one whose mask was so loose that when she moved her head the mask followed about a second later or the old guy who pulled his mask down everytime he spoke to his wife, little point wearing a mask if it's pulled down every few seconds when you speak.

 

But by far the worst was the guy who pulled his mask down, put his hands up to his face and sneezed into his hands, looked at his hands and proceded to wipe them on his jeans   and then pulled his mask back up over his face, minging barsteward, I just hope he wasn't away to Asda/Tesco and handiling tins and packets of food with those same minging hands.

 

 

There really does need to be some education regarding this issue, maybe a new government advert.  I used to run a catering business and spent some time in college doing a food handling course WOW, what an eye opener when it came to the cross contamination part.  Since then I’ve always been extremely wary of clean hands (not to the point of obsession), grates me the non contact hand flush systems and auto soap dispensers in public toilets but, oh wait, you need to then handle the door to get out 😂😂.  The only logical way to do this is to open the door handle with your hand protected and covered I.e. glove, tissue, antibacterial wipe etc........never seen anyone do this ever when vacating a public toilet.........but anyway, your hands are only as clean as the next surface you touch, door handle, elevator button, tin of soup in the supermarket etc...etc...

 

Gloves......don’t get me started.....I cannot recall anyone ever using latex gloves the correct way, personally I only ever used these in catering when I was cleaning /sanitising then off they came and back to hand washing often.

 

Who'd have thought....cleanliness and hand washing would have stopped this virus from spreading.

Exactly my thoughts . Let’s just concentrate on what’s happening in Scotland and England as this effects us more . Unfortunate what’s happening. In the US but let them get out of that mess . As for posters going on about listening to the “ experts “ I Donr know about others but I’ve lost complete faith in them as any new “ evidence “ about the virus is contradictory , Do masks work ? Is the virus airborne for 6 hours or more , will there be a second wave ! Etc etc . There are all different   opinions . What we do know for certain is the virus is rapidly disappearing in Scotland .

The constant ramblings about Trump are not relevant to us . I lived in America for a time { Houston ) and I noted they are a very insular inward looking country who don’t give a lying f about any other countries and hardly have any knowledge about anything out of the USA . I recall I was frequently asked when I said I was from Scotland many would say “ what part of England is that ?” !! Ofcourse there are some intellectuals in the USA and knowledgable people so I don’t want to over generalise .

Tacked on the the north edge of Engerland.

Has been since somewhere in the Silurian period - resulting in the Caledonian Orogeny.

Many of its inhabitants would like to see it drift away again, although they're quite keen to retain the remnants of the orogeny. Good for tourism, you see.

She's been tempted many times. Breaks my heart to hear the stories when she comes home from work.

 

Food thrown at her, had drinks thrown, been physically attacked, junkies in the toilets, OF fans trying to smash her windows. The last thing retail workers need are idiots having a go at them for this. But those idiots don't care, they somehow think wearing a mask to protect others, when in a shop, is the worst thing that can happen.

 

edit: add to that, due to cost cutting, Nero now have baristas on lone working (without a lone working device). That's after there's been 3 separate stabbings all within 100m of her shop, in the last few weeks.

If he agrees after listening to your expert advice then I will agree too. Until then you're talking utter shite  and I have not a clue why. It's frankly bizarre.

She's been tempted many times. Breaks my heart to hear the stories when she comes home from work.

 

Food thrown at her, had drinks thrown, been physically attacked, junkies in the toilets, OF fans trying to smash her windows. The last thing retail workers need are idiots having a go at them for this. But those idiots don't care, they somehow think wearing a mask to protect others, when in a shop, is the worst thing that can happen.

 

edit: add to that, due to cost cutting, Nero now have baristas on lone working (without a lone working device). That's after there's been 3 separate stabbings all within 100m of her shop, in the last few weeks.

 

Shocking that. What area if you don't mind sharing?

Oh and my Mrs bought a kitten yesterday. Didn't expect my lab to bond with the wee thing so quickly. Thick as Thieves, already. 👍

 

Just thought I'd tell you that.

A little pussy.
