The best bit of the new films was the 2 minute cameo of Darth Vader in Rouge One. Did that movie make any money or was it firmly in the red? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Dunno what’s worse folk giving Star Wars a hard time or folk greeny-ing f**k out of photos of absolute stinkers. Either way I feel there’s a high correlation between the two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutter for the media and the naysayers who just want to predict constant doom and gloom. I have a theory. The thing is actually much more contageous than thought, with a longer incubation periods, but much less deadly. It ransacks it's way through a population way quicker than thought, with only the most vulnerable showing symptoms, never mind getting seriously ill. The measures put in place are less effective than they seem. Every country that didn't lockdown almost immediately has a curve on that graph that is essentially the same. Population sizes seem a bigger factor in case numbers than measures put in place, which loops back to my theory. Given the lack of any sort of control in the US you would expect their line to be screaming upwards but even theirs is curving. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd_is_God Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Interesting breakdown for age groups. Should this lockdown need to go beyond 12 weeks, there's surely a very strong case for restricting it to certain age groups. I don't mean to compare the disease / symptoms / contageousness itself to flu but Globally, for the population as a whole, even without filtering out underlying health conditions, it is no more deadly than flu for those under 50. I'd also sugest, admittedly with no data to back this up, that with death rates so low, these age groups are typically not ecperiencing symptoms which require hospitalisation, meaning the strain on the NHS would be normal.

Snobot Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Thoroughly recommend reading the first 10 pages or so of this thread if you are bored of Star Wars. A much more innocent time and some brilliantly misjudged hot takes as has been pointed out already. @JTS98 is the Mystic Clegg of our time. FWIW my 4 year old daughter loves AOTC, especially the Colosseum bit (not sure if appropriate for 4yo but never mind) and has lots of Leah and Padme toy figures. Strong female role models for a young girl are a good thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many people get the flu each year? Death rates may be similar but overall cases probably not. 0.5% of 50,000 is still much less than 0.5% of 500,000, or a million even. Also this misses the point that a healthy person who can withstand the virus might just carry it around to someone who can't without ever displaying symptoms. Lockdown has to be for everyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be flabbergasted if under 50's die near that rate from flu every year. There are far far smaller numbers than 0.2% or 0.4%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YTD 120,000 deaths globally from seasonal flu. If the death rate is 0.1%, that's 1.2m in the first 3 months of 2020. Both infections and deaths currently more than Covid-19 Average yearly deaths are 500,000 No it doesn't. It isn't even for everyone right now.

Theroadlesstravelled Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 There’s a huge difference between how China dealt with Covid-19 and how we are dealing with it in the west. They welded people in blocks of flats for weeks and arrested people in the street. We’re out sunbathing and moping on the weans to go to Tesco. There’s no conspiracy here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest_Fifer Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 https://www.globalresearch.ca/corona-more-health-disaster-human-calamity/5708005Some ten days ago, Mr. Trump declared, that this “situation” is enough and that it is time to get the economy working again. He is a business man and knows best. He suggested March 30 for going back to work. He then must have gotten instructions from his higher-ups, that more time was needed – this is just my guess – to prepare whatever sinister plan is in the making. So, he postponed by two weeks the “back-to-normal” day.[/Quote] Pile of pish. Standard conspiracy moron, with a hard-on for Trump by the looks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
