      Never a good time for this. My condolences.

        Ok. I have another "rumour", fairly good source. If there's too many dead to deal with and before there is a risk they may become a health hazard reefer trucks will be used. There are thousands of those, many mounted on truck chassis but a lot that are basically containers out there that only need either the power pack topping up with Red derv. Others need a generator. Keeping track would be the thing.

          Incorrect. Their first death was on 3rd March. By 8th March they had 17 dead. You really need to learn how to read graphs! By 9th March (+6) they had 30 dead.



          Incorrect. By 11th March we had 8 dead.



          Wrong, wrong and wrong.
          Italy: 1,016
          Spain:2,311
          UK: 465

          Please if you’re going to use graphs, learn how to read them. Go to the one titled “Total Corona Deaths in xxx” then look for where the first one is recorded. Then go from there.

          Gaddamit I need glasses...

          So re did the figures and we are still not tracking the same

          So revised figures

          Italy day 6 16 deaths
          Spain day 6 17 deaths
          UK day 6 6 deaths

          Day 10
          Italy - 74
          Spain - 86
          UK - 21

          Day 15
          Italy 361
          Spain 533
          UK 144

          Day 20
          Italy 1261
          Spain 1772
          UK 422

          Increase in deaths between day 14 and 15
          Italy 36 to 133 - 97
          Spain 48 to 191 - 143
          UK 33 to 40 - 7

          Largest increase in deaths between and given day
          Italy Day 26 427 - Day 27 627 deaths 200
          Spain Day 19 288 - Day 20 391 deaths 148
          UK Day 19 54 - Day 20 87 deaths 33

          Between day 21 and day 22 in the UK the total deaths went down by 44 - UK is at present the only country which has seen a reduction in day to day deaths which is larger than the largest increase in day to day deaths

          So potentially the UK may have caught it in time - fingers crossed - unless they have changed the way figures are reported...

          That's why the next few days are vital

                Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                      Leave him alone. Hes a great chap. Sadly he gets influenced by the cretin king. Once the cretin king goes he will be okay again...
