And plenty of hospitals are full of empty beds including the one built with the help of the army in London!

We were told by the doom mongering experts on here that by now UK deaths would be doubling every day from the virus and hospitals would be overcome with patients..

Not anywhere near like that is the reality!

If we end up with empty beds - good - as that was the aim. It's when they are all full or not manned sufficiently that the sh!t really hits the fan. People are going into hospital a lot faster than they are coming out, so the capacity is slowly being chipped away., we've a long haul ahead yet.

And that is AFTER bringing in the controls that you so desperately want lifting. As I speak, the BBC report from ICU is being re-played again when they - the health workers on the front line - are stressing again and again the importance of social distancing, they are working 12 hour shifts in gruelling conditions. But you seem to be disappointe that the Excel centre is not full yet.

No I live in the real world unlike some on here it sadly has to be said!

You appear to be the only one living in your world. Why do you think you are pretty much alone on here in your views?

Been another bad day ,

I don't like the way they keep mentioning on the news that we may the near the peak. If we hazard a guess that 1million people have been infected in the UK than we have another 65 million to go. This is just a blip not the peak.

Exactly. You cannot “ half prepare”.

In NZ which normally expect to run at 90% full hospital beds they have got that down to 50% full in case the virus takes off - first impressions are that the lockdown (Alert Level 4 + a SoE) is beginning to show dividends.

The lockdown was implemented in accordance with WHO recommendations and began before the first (and so far only) CV-19 related death.

Had not the Ardern government acted so positively things could have so easily gone ( still could)
the other way.

Contact tracing and assessment of ALL those with possible contact to known and probable cases is paramount to the controls.

Yes she will have died from diabetes as that illness will have caused the 2 nd infection which will be the virus.

Thou I sincerely hope she doesn't get the virus pbh.

No one and I myself certainly DO NOT want to hear that someone is very ill either with other illnesses or the virus itself.

What an utterly stupid thing to say. I've never heard that diabetes causes your lungs to fill with fluid so that vital organs cant get enough oxygen and shut down.
As an aside, some people are total c**kwombles.

Open your eyes!

Boris is in intensive care tonight, he apparently takes blood pressure tablets which are believed to make things a lot worse if you get the virus.

Likes of Hancock are healthy and have no underlying health issues thus why most ( not all it has to be said ) people like him suffer few effects from the virus and get better very quickly sadly unlike Boris.

Does it take practice to be a prolapsed arse hole with no meaningful function left?

At least in NZ we seem to have our priorities right.

Keeping kids engaged is typical of Jacinda,

Even my Brother in Law ( who once stood as a National candidate) is warming to her...

I too am a National voter, or at least was, may change my vote at the next election.

Jacinda communicates well and the regular updates are all inclusive, even the idiots are included, a great response to the Christchurch idiot coughing on customers in a supermarket, refused bail until a negative test result. Go girl.

'An idiot': Ardern lashes out at arrested man who deliberately coughed on supermarket shoppers

The PM did not hold back during Sunday's COVID-19 briefing.

Last week you were claiming that everybody were going to die soon either way and that it was all a hoax and that everybody that died had serious underlying issues, so now if Borris dies and I hope he doesn’t , you will probably claim that due to his blood pressure tablets he was about to die anyway , tell that to his unborn child.

To use the words of Jacinda Adhern “ ....who I would charitably call an idiot “

The guy who was coughing over supermarket customers has been taken into “protective custody” and will not be considered for release until he has a negative test for CV-19.

Just watched her latest update, she handles the press well and gives good no nonsense responses, very unusual for a politician.

China claiming NO deaths from CV19 today.

Yep, me neither

Do we belive that countrys are counting deaths correctly ,and maybe falsify numbers to get the lockdowns eased and let the big companies make money again

I read it as China REPORTING no deaths. Perhaps their reporting pencil broke.

Italy's in shut down
