My heart goes out to those who will suffer from late diagnosis and treatment, cure is worse than the disease, it would be nice to here on the news every night how they are getting this under control instead how they are decimating the two biggest sectors in the country and probably the world, ie. service sector and Air travel/tourism.
Wont be long till we have a cure for old age

Talking about deaths of people who have tested positive for Covid 19 within the previous 28 days of death (even if they caught it in hospital after being hit by a car), in the 100s, 1500 people a day die in this country, let's keep it in perspective, we haven't cured old age and death yet sadly.
In 2016 and 2018 there were stories in papers about flu patients being left in hospital corridors due to over crowding, this really isn't new, the NHS is pretty terrible my modern standards. In the US the Drs are begging patients to come in fro check-ups as they need the revenue, our service want's you patched up and out as fast as humanly possible, care little for prevention and this year care even less about treatment.
I agree Heardy, there is a real danger when we get the headlines in future that we do every winter about hospitals being stretched that this might become an option now that lockdowns have become normalized.
2 vaccines, one for the under 65's and one for the over 65's, hell knows why, either have only a 50% chance of protection hence in winter 2017/18 there was circa 50k extra deaths from flu because they were ineffective to that strain, and no one noticed, no lockdowns, no job losses, I hate to think what will happen every winter now the hysteria is cemented into society. Protect the vulnerable and yourselves and get on with life.
It's only "more deadly" to very old/frail people. The infection fatality rate for covid is likely only slightly higher than flu even with a flu vaccine, flu kills younger people than covid though so it comes to being even on years of life lost. The trouble with covid is less people are immune to it so more contagious.
Flu strains evolve, thats why we constantly need new vaccines. The vaccine you receive is just their best guess at the type of strain will be going around.
Covid 19 doesn't evolve (for now).
I don't think it's that much worse than flu, average covid death age is 82.4. The trouble is it's more contagious than the average flu due to less people being immune than the average flu strain. So the risk to an individual is similar to flu (less if under 40 but more if over) but there is a risk of too many people getting it in a location at the same time so potential risks of local hospital overwhelm.
I forgot to say in the spring France had a 7 day average of 975 deaths a day at the peak.
1. The number of covid deaths increased but total deaths decreased from last week and are currently normal.
2. Ireland has gone insane, Boris doesn't want a lockdown, support for one is waning.
3. French average deaths are still around 114 a day, like most of Europe I'm not sure these covid deaths are even pushing French total deaths above average for this time of year. ICU is increasing very slowly and in the spring they had over 6,000 in intensive care, back then far more people would also die in intensive care compared to now.
Imsi...... you are obsessed with the share because you have materially lost money..... you need to move on as staying on here is making you more and more bitter......
OMG Shorterguy you been hiding all day and thought you’d spout off after hours!! Getting worried are you?
I guess Insi has filtered me , as of yet no reply, which I find odd...
Anyways guys, nice rise today - hopefully this will continue steadily.
Hasta manana
