MONKMAN Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 People on social media absolutely desperate for coronavirus to hit the UK and US hard so they can use it as political ammo against Boris and Trump.Trump and Boris are making a pretty compelling case themselves, at showing the world the scale of their incompetence. A pair of fucking morons. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I have avoided commenting on the politics of this so far, but it is right that questions are being asked about why the U.K. strategy is apparently different from most/all other countries. It seems even our policy on the timing of testing and who should be tested is in conflict with the advice of the World Health Organisation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ok though.

J_Stewart Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Wales taking it seriously I see Cardiff in beautiful voice tonight! #stereophonics #Kind2020Tour pic.twitter.com/YhFNCEi3md— stereophonics (@stereophonics) March 14, 2020 Similar level of fucking idiocy in Aberdeen last night with 11.5k going to see Lewis Capaldi. Not only have you listened to two hours of shite music, but you’ve now inadvertently led to the death of your granny. Well done, folks. Stupid c***s. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweeperDee Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 That's not it though is it? Folk are stockpiling toilet roll incase they get stuck inside for a few weeks. It has f**k all to do with "supply chains from China". I know it’s not, but there’s been a bunch of racist shite floating about saying that is the case. That’s why in the original post I said it was daft as f**k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florentine_Pogen Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Nuts. I will freely admit I didn't see what the fuss was about initially but looking at Italy I can't get it into my head how folk wouldn't take precautions now.

Guest SJP79 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Uk have 5000 ventilators Phillipines have 400 for a population off 105 million , some African countries only have 1 doctor for 10 thousand people. 11000 people at Capaldi gig in Aberdeen ! Many are not taking this seriously enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side, in future it will be easier to explain to doubters why it is beneficial for rich countries to spend a good amount of money on foreign aid to poor countries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty dingus Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Down the local Scotmid, plenty of food but they had put their 2 litres of Irn Bru up to £1.90 so 2 x1 litre bottles for £1.60. I'm too fly for this corona shit. I did notice a severe lack of scratchcards at the till though, that's the spirit, it's better lying dying in the gutter looking up at the stars than face down with yer nose wedged in a shitty drain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweeperDee Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 It’s ok Lynda knows someone who knows exactly what’s going on!Going by the boffin in the video that’s been linked a few times, he’s saying that countries that treat the fever aspect of the illness with the usual fever reducing drugs are seeing higher death rates. Avoiding paracetamol and Ibuprofen might not seem too silly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many are not taking this seriously enough. I still don't get the "everyone is going to get it" viewpoint, given how sparsely spread the Scottish population is in relation to say the city of wuhan. Likewise London where people are literally living on top of one another. Surely if this is as contagious as being made out, then wuhan would have had many more confirmed cases and the likes of London would be ta ta bella ???

Guest JTS98 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 That's your panic buying underway in Malaysia. Huge queues in the supermarket today, folk with trolleys full of instant noodles and pasta that will probably never be eaten. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
