If this helps anyone a chemist i know told me and he's never been wrong before that if you have had the Flu shot and more importantly the Pneumonia shot you have a better chance of getting a mild dose of the virus. Also Vit D is very important to top up on.

Neurologists in France and UK say Ibuprofen  makes coronavirus worse so steer clear of it - but those tossers at PHE say there is no conclusive evidence - but why take the risk?

I'm fine thanks KP. I am at home today because my Daughter isn't well but it's NOT coronavirus.

Fair play to you mate because as far as I know you are the only one of us from Nuts, on the frontline combating this thing and you and all the rest of your colleagues all around the world have our respect and thanks.

Hers a virtual round of applause from me!

:clap:

(Well ok, from what you have told us I know you aren't at the sharp end of things but you are part of a team that most definitely are).

We might have had our differences in the past and probably will do in the future but that's about nothing more than over a game of footy (and in particular the finance behind it) and also who your mates are on a random footy forum but in real life we'd be in a real mess without you and all the rest of your colleagues, now more than ever.

Real life comes first every time.

I wouldn't blame Norpig if he was on the frontline and did a runner to protect his family.

It must be worrying for those who are on the frontline from what can be seen from the situation in Italy.

I'll stop short of saying our Government lies to us, but it has to be noted that their "experts" have been very selective in the information they have released to date and partisan in their interpretation of the modelling.

Why do you always believe there is a conspiracy when the real truth is as simple as this -

"In the last 24 hours, Downing Street's instructions to the public to protect everyone's health changed at breakneck speed as new scientific data emerged".

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-51931734

From Laura Kuenssberg the BBC's Political editor.

You do know who the BBC is don't you, that organisation that the Conservatives hate and Boris seemed so intent on dismantling just days before coronavirus took over everything, by scraping it's funding?

Do you think she's part of the conspiracy 'spin' too?

You probably do!

Are you suggesting that Norpig, a hero of the NHS, a stalwart of the ULTRAS, would run away from the battle?

Outrageous.  Smile

That's the point though, very few if any put themselves before the sick.

Thank God they do.

Whilst they are saving lives you get the pig ignorant, selfish bastards panic buying and plundering the supermarkets for toilet rolls, hand sanitisers, etc and fuck everyone else!

Hope they all get piles!

Karma.

"In the last 24 hours, Downing Street's instructions to the public to protect everyone's health changed at breakneck speed as new scientific data emerged".

Data was already there and has been for weeks as it came from China via Imperial. It emerging was new - although they did update it yesterday before release.

And I was telling you days ago that the Government's strategy was flawed, but to their credit they have changed tack now - even though it took the cat crawling out of the bag for them to do it.

So to paraphrase you, hopefully you will finally accept the view that I originally put forward and retract your insults - or do you think you know better than the Government's own "experts" ?

If Sluffy gets his wish there's going to be more trouble then? Punch ups in Boots over pile suppositories will be a degrading spectacle. Shocked

Wrong.

The MODEL was there, the actual DATA is new.

Don't you know the difference between the two - apparently not?

It's not a hard concept to understand.

Putting the actual DATA from the last few days into the MODEL has resulted in moving much more quickly into the next stage in fighting this than was predicted.

Do you get it now?

I certainly don't know better than the Government's experts, or any other proven expert come to that - clearly you do.

You know better than anyone apparently about everything.

Or at least you think you do.

Would not surprise me at all if you were an expert on piles too, considering all the shite that come out of your hole!

Very Happy

No you're wrong. The data has been around since January and it was on that basis that the WHO declared the emergency. Obviously it has been added to.

Are you suggesting a) that the Government created their first strategy using data modelling without data? or b) that the small amount of data collected since Friday completely changed the whole picture when added to the huge amount of data collected over the last couple of months that was already in existence? If the latter you're an idiot because it clearly shows you don't understand data modelling - and you don't read things properly the report says that "this realisation has happened only in the past few days" i.e. they've only just cottoned on to what it really means.

Come on Sluffy...man up, accept that you are and were wrong, withdraw your incessant stream of insults and apologise for being a twat.
Actually, don't bother with the last one because it's not necessarily your fault.

Sunak on telly now telling us what a great job he and the Government are doing.

As expected, he's upped his £12 billion - to £330 billion! Slight miscalculation first time around Rishi?

:rofl:

Ah the details....

It's a LOAN not a grant.

Business rates holiday for leisure industry.
Small grants totalling £20 billion to micro businesses.
OK it's a start.
