Everyone should watch this, especially the NZ govt. Great video.

Doesn't seem a good video to me, although I had no sound. Is the 20,000 projected deaths / 8,000 'extra' deaths projected from numbers with the restrictions?
If the purpose of the video is 'we are all over-reacting' then they need to use the projected number in their video that is modelled from some 'let's not over-react' restrictions.
UK starts social distancing after new model points to 260 000 potential deaths
from: https://www.bmj.com/content/368/bmj.m1089Models aren't gospel, maybe 260,000 is acceptable even, but the sky video above just seems like mis-information to me.

I admire your ability to not listen to a video, guess it's contents , and then critique it as misinformation. That is next level ferning.

You're welcome.
Here's another critique:
Things changed swiftly after an epidemiological model from Imperial College London projected that without drastic interventions, more than half a million Britons would die from COVID-19
No idea if they're correct. But neither do Sky news.
versus:
UK can keep Covid-19 deaths below 20,000, says medical director
Professor Stephen Powis has said the national effort can work if everyone plays their part

You are still arguing against something nobody has said....

Correct result, wrong action.
Should have been fired on the spot.
Sturgeon tough? No nonesense?
Bollocks. Just like the rest of them. Spineless.

Not too far off blocking you there TBH. You’ve become really tedious in a short amount of time.

@Billy-Tell
What?
Mike posted an interesting vid, so I complimented it, Rapido jumps in to say the video is wrong, despite the fact he has completely the wrong idea about what the video is saying because he had no volume on it....
He might have waited to actually hear what the video said before criticizing it.. and he was literally arguing a point nobody was making. he stated the video was misinformation at the same time as admitting he actually had no idea what information it contained.... that's all good, I just fund it funny (I actually said it was quality ferning)... but then you jump in with your preciousness.@Rapido said in Coronavirus - Overall:

So Billy, block away. if you weren't grandstanding you would have just done that without telling me about it. I wont miss your facile input.

It's widely reported now that Boris Johnson is receiving oxygen treatment.
Bit bored of the he's still in charge line.
He's certainly not well - there is no doubt there. Hancock is arguably more important right now anyway. The media briefings when he was ill were rudderless, poor and confusing. Improved big time with his return from illness.

The UK Prime Minister is fighting for his life this evening. Thoughts with his colleagues, his many friends and family. Hope he pulls through.
This virus can hit anyone. I hope people realise how serious the situation is now and follow the advice, wash their hands and stay at home.
