I'm sure the last thread I read was about 2000 pages. Would you like me to link them all?

Except we don’t live in a dictatorship, we live in a Parliamentary democracy where politicians have certain powers but where such powers have limitations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crack on being a dick yourself though seeing as you seem to think you have it all solved. You quoted yourself for starters. If you know all about R numbers then a quick run down would be helpful. Telling people to google it doesn't give much hope you are any more clued up on it than anyone else 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shut down ish. We then did nothing. When we loosen up, what has changed to make the virus less contagious / deadly. Some people who are susceptible have died. A lot of people will be a bit more careful. That's about it. People are back to work tomorrow in English cities (advised not to take public transport lol). What's stopping the virus spreading amongst them and causing more cases and deaths? Edited May 10, 2020 by madwullie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madwullie Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 What is actually the guidance for people back at work tomorrow who show symptoms? Are they allowed tests? What do they do if positive? Is it still a 5 day wait for results? Is it still just self isolate, no govt input etc. Is there any kind of tracing planned? Hopefully Johnston will get asked this shit in Parliament tomorrow, or is that just going to be another announcement? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theroadlesstravelled Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 R is 0.9 + 219,183 infections then the COVID Alert Level is 219,183.9. Hope that clears it up. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless im missing something obvious. How does including care home infections in calculating the R number not increase it? If the were excluded, would it not be lower? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
