FFS jono, be careful how you word things mate.

You're probably right, eventually it may well do. I'd argue the lockdowns should already be in place, but it seems the government experts disagree.
Like I said..

The government's approach on this is nothing short of fuckwittery..

It's beggers belief.. is almost as if they want the virus to spread
 
Thanks to the relatively tiny dataset it's possible to interpret the data & any future modelling in a massive amount of ways.

Add in geographical differences, number of beds available etc, & you have loads more.

Then add in the fact some medical experts think a herd immunity will happen as it most often does with viruses, & many disagree because there's proven cases of sever reinfection, & you have this this situation we now find ourselves in.

Herd immunity is a ridiculous approach.. they tried that approach with the Spanish flu.. look what happened..

Herd immunity only works if some form of vaccination is in place and minimal risk of reinfection

It's not just the flu ffs..

Hahahahahaha

I don't think there is anything I enjoy more than one of Ninja's many catastrophically ill-advised forays into areas of specific expertise and knowledge that he is demonstrably and singularly unprepared for in every conceivable way.

Gather round all, while he cack-handedly Googles gibberish from Quora and Wikipedia to sound like he's ever fucking heard of Spanish Flu before yesterday, never mind putting the words 'herd' and 'immunity' together.

If only the Government had access to the brain and in-depth understanding of Ninja during these Cobra meetings! Get your white coat and research white papers together Ninj! Your country needs you!
 
School's canceled here for a month.
Basically, every govt is going to try and buy time until Summer hits ... as we see in india (50 cases in a country of 1+ billion people), summer does the job on the virus ...
Keep it in check, keep hospitals less 'stressed' and hopefully, summer does its thing.
 
Hahahahahaha

I did actually work for a pharmaceutical company that develops vaccines and some of the experts I worked with say the same, the government's approach to this is all wrong..

So whilst I'm no expert, I have some inside knowledge
 
Yeah, right.

Your attempt at spelling 'quarantine' deformed the word so much it qualifies for a fucking disabled badge, and if we're being honest, you don't really have the best track record of knowing anything about...well, anything at all really.

So you'll understand if I don't treat this latest example of claimed 'inside knowledge' with anything more than loudly amused derision.

Don't stop, though. You are one of my favourite and most reliable sources for loudly amused derision.

There is no point getting into argument with a deranged baffon..

I was talking to a ex colleague who is a Liverpool Season ticket holder, we where actually talking about the Athletico game. It all jokey jokey as you would expect, but turned serious, him and his colleagues are of the opinion the government is not going far enough in terms of trying to slow down the spread of virus

He went very deep in how the spreading of the virus works, risks of reinfection, and how a virus evolves, peak etc, very interesting but well over my head.. In a nut shell social distancing is the only solution.. its been effective in China and argues it will show effectivness eventually in Italy

The company he works for are currently researching vaccine, so I'd expect he would know a thing or two..
 
Their logic makes perfect sense, all of it.

Their timeline doesn't seem to, just looking at the timeline of Italy for example, but then I have no doubt they're much smarter than I am, so I'll just take their word.
This is a very interesting explanation of a Logistic Curve (there is isn't actually Exponential Growth in any equation with a limit e.g. population numbers) and well worth viewing. It explains Italy perfectly.

 
Suspension is fine, that's good innit?

Look at China, that seems to be going back to normal already. Most European countries have just written off March.

Just suspend for 3 weeks and then crack on!

HOW DESPERATE AND PLEADING DO I SOUND?
 
Its the only logical and good way forward though. At least there is minimal talk of abandoning the season.
