Coronavirus

I think it was dexamethasone I was prescribed when I was first diagnosed with asthma and it instantly got it under control. As a side effect it cured the worst gout attack of my life but unfortunately as its a steroid I could only take it for ten days and the gout returned for another couple of weeks of pain. 

 

Given the effect it had on me I'm not surprised it's turned out to be a "miracle" drug.

I see around 200 deaths per day is acceptable to these cunts. Let’s get things back open

Was supposed to be world beating app released on June 1st iirc, straight from Johnson's mouth. Now it's not going to be available before Xmas and isn't important anyway. This government terrifies me.

You can absolutely guarantee that it doesn't ever come out unless we go full on back into lockdown.

 

[Gemmill 44881]

Good thread. Some scary places in the world atm. 

 

 

[ewerk 30611]

The UK being one of them.

Yeah, seems odd the BBC having in depth reports about China having a solitary outbreak, meanwhile hardly mentioning we still have the equivalent of a plane crash of bodies on our hands every day in this country, literally a death every ten minutes.

I.e. it doesn’t work so let’s pretend it never existed to try and avoid talking about it

It’s been like that the whole time. It’s a fucking joke. The scenes from New York whole the horrendous death rate here was being glossed over and even being portrayed as a success just because it was higher than the peak. And the peak was inexcusable, horrifically bad and largely avoidable by reacting earlier. 

[Dr Gloom 21924]

another great win for this government 

 

[ewerk 30611]

It's almost like bucking the trend and going it your own way for no reason doesn't always pay off.

[PaddockLad 17262]

Apple & Google have all my data anyway so I'm far more likely to get on board with this 👍

UK's Covid-19 alert level reduced from four to three

 

[Gemmill 44881]

Good news. I believe that means we can start to relax restrictions as if it was level 2.
