That figure isn't the death rate for the virus. That's just the number of people in a certain age group that have died from it. It takes no account of the number of people that have caught it, which has been massively depressed by the lockdown because a huge number of the 40m have been removed from circulation. 

 

You are fucking lucky you can't die of stupidity or else we wouldn't be having this conversation. 


Never said it was.

Lots of folk suggesting advice is now deliberately vague & contradictory on purpose to remove blame from Johnson & Cummings and on to the public in general in the event of a second spike in infections. They’re truly back to letting ordinary folk fry tbh. 

 

It's quite clearly this, just like whatever Brexit ends up being will be the Brexit people voted for, even if they didn't

Professor Renton has just calculated that if we fully released lock down 80,000 people of working age would die this year. This is using some very conservative assumptions including the NHS not being overwhelmed, which seems unlikely. And also ignores the hundreds of thousands of deaths in pensioners. A price worth paying? Yes, in the world of CT. 

 

Even though I’ve continually argued in favour of radically protecting the pensioners :lol:

Not at all, I’ve suggested everything is radically focussed on protecting the elderly and getting the country back to normal.

 

The infection rate went down CT literally because no one was allowed to go anywhere. What part of that don’t you understand?

It’s absolutely the case that they can turn around and say it wasn’t their fault

How the fuck do you radically protect millions of pensioners? Even shielding the 1 5 million who are at very high risk is a logistical nightmare.

Your solution might as well be ‘by magic’ though

My last word on this.

 

Other than taking my approach of radically protecting the elderly and getting the rest of us back to work, HOW else does this end?

 

The virus is here and we have no vaccine. Do we stay locked down for a year, five, 10?

 

How many millions do we let lose their jobs, their homes, their education?

 

What happens when the government can’t sell any more debt to pay for everything?

 

We could hide away til the r rate is 0.3 but at some point when we all come out it will rapidly rise.

 

If not my plan, then WHAT plan.

0.0062% is not the number you apply to those that eventually get the virus btw, CT. I'm sure you understand this as you seem to be all over the maths. 

 

So you open up the country again and 20m get infected, the number you expect to die from that is many multiples of 0.0062%. 

 

But again, you'll know this because you won the maths prize.

We wait another month. Until infection rates are consistently in the low hundreds and not at  4000 a day as they are at the moment . As the rest of the UK seem to realise is correct. But they're not playing a blame game are they?

CT is plumbing new depths here. What type of person uses a situation like this to fish for bites? Its fucking ugly and frankly bizarre behaviour. 

I think he just knows how wrong he was to back his beloved PM and Tory Party. He’s incapable (like the rest of them) of any public admission of culpability so he resorts to trying to wind up more intelligent people with a social conscience. Tbf, he’s a product of his own stupidity and environment

We can add risk assessment and the hierarchy of control to the list of things CT doesn’t understand, along with percentages

 

Viral load is like calorie content, it's only problematic if you choose to believe in it
