    I am not trying to prove/disprove anything - just saying that that expensive mobile phone contracts will be first to go if there is money problem (which there is), it’s just common sense.

    Million dead would imply 50-100 mln infections, which with mitigation measures used in China would not have been possible in given time frame - it’s not speculation, we have numbers all over the world to make good estimates.

    So millions of dead Chinese is BS for sure. Tens of thousands in Wuhan? Very possible, but not millions.

          Everybody is dead, Dave.

          Talking of Dave - saw Red Dwarf: Promised Land the other night. Totally silly - it's nice to see the standards being kept up, even after all this time.

            I mean it's obvious why people are dying, what has happened recently on a global scale that has come out of China?


            5G innit?

                Ah, but the town I live in has had 5G for over a year. So it didn't come from China, it came from Switzerland. And the first case in the UK was in Manchester...

                  Is that when you believe that GDP will increase after Brexit?

                    If you die outside a hospital, you almost certainly won't have been tested, so if for example you died of pneumonia (the most likely actual cause of death from Covid19) that's what your death certificate will most likely say. It's bit like the old days, when people died of 'Aids related complications' rather than Aids itself.

                    On the plus side, deaths from road accidents and street stabbings will probably be way down statistically. Suicides are likely to be higher. I doubt we'll ever know the true death toll from Covid19, but at least it won't be because the govt are deliberately suppressing the numbers.
                    His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...
