Yes, some do (think it's less severe than the flu)

Mainly all the world's virology experts without exception.

Going to be an outcry if her gathering produces a clutch of COV19 in Bristol.

@Cel,

"As for covid 19, many have next to no symptoms at all but I expect the panic to continue, especially in this country as more without a doubt will be infected"

It spreads asymptomatically so plenty to be afraid of.

CtR...maybe a blessing in disguise if absence of testing..."

No, definitely not.

Makes people complacent. And there is enough of that already.

700 million in lockdown China side for what some call a measly flu virus.
Totally disproportionate.

Look at what people do,not what they say.

News today is dominated by preparedness fears surrounding the global corona virus threat. Meanwhile, reactions to the release of both EU and UK negotiating mandates are continuing to surface.UK rejects European Arrest Warrant: The UK government's negotiation mandate for upcoming talks with the European Union has made it clear that it no longer wants to be part of the European Arrest Warrant. The EAW makes it possible for European criminals to be arrested in the EU and sent back to their home country. The government will instead seek fast-track extradition arrangements in accordance with the precedent set by Norway and Iceland that they argue will have "extra safeguards as compared to what's currently in the EAW." 'Global Britain' takes hit on Heathrow expansion: The Court of Appeal has ruled that the £14 billion Heathrow expansion project was illegal, due to the government's inability to take into account its legal duty to tackle climate change. This groundbreaking decision impacts the UK's ability post-Brexit to carry out its vision of a 'Global Britain'. Former transport secretary Andrew Adonis said "The only winners from a refusal to expand Heathrow as agreed by Parliament two years ago will be other international hubs that will take the extra traffic, especially Amsterdam, Paris and Dubai." Former chancellor George Osborne also tweeted his frustration with the decision calling it "overreaching undemocratic judicial activism"Workers' rights Post-Brexit: Frances O'Grady, the TUC general secretary has said she would like to be kept in the loop on Brexit trade deals. O'Grady said she is kept plugged in by unions in Europe who pass information onto her that comes from European leaders. She has asked for a meeting with the Prime Minister but has heard nothing back. Boris Johnson has previously promised not to water down workers' rights after the UK leaves the EU, with 'enhanced standards' set to be enshrined in the new employment bill.Coronavirus impacts global economy: Coronavirus fears have seen global markets in free-fall, with the FTSE 100 opening 3.2 percent down today due to the uncertainty. This comes after the Bank of England governor Mark Carney said the UK should prepare for an economic downgrade as there is disruption to supply chains as a result of the virus.Regulatory innovation in tech for Britain: Brexit provides Britain with the perfect opportunity for UK tech companies to influence the next decade of policy-making in their industry. The UK could become the home of regulatory innovation in sectors such as artificial intelligence and blockchain. Dominic Cummings is no stranger to doing things differently as as a technology and innovation obsessive, this government could prove to be the one to take the UK tech industry into the future.On our site today: Our chairman, Shanker Singham, takes a look at the UK and EU negotiating mandates and compares the two. He analyses the key areas of contention and where there is potential for progress. Our second article comes from Pieter Cleppe, who represented Open Europe in Brussels from 2008 until 2020. He looks back on 15 years of the think tank in Europe.For the latest news and developments throughout the day, please do follow @GlobalVision_UK on Twitter.Thanks for reading, and enjoy the rest of your day.

I think some form of western governments or Central Banks action will come either this evening after Europe closes or Sunday evening before the far East markets open Monday morning...virus is doing some of Dow froth unwinding for them...

[minerve 2] 28/2/2020 15:05

Oh FFS!

You cannot say that the death rate in Italy is 2.6% of those infected. It is such a mess in Northern Italy, as it is in Iran, that the number of infections is UNKNOWN.

To take the 2.6% and equate that to the UK population figures is a moron's game.

To make an accurate prediction of death rate you would need an accurate picture of the model you are referencing demographic - age range, general health, movement, health service availability/quality and its spread over time and then transfer that onto a similar model for the UK. You would also need to calculate latency between onset and death and include projections for vaccines and behavioural changes based on government policy and those within the home. This is not a very easy task and certainly is nothing like the BS posted above.

The depression will see unemployment jump to near 28% around the globe.

The world has changed.

Mankind has no idea of what’s hitting them on a daily basis.

It’s here and now.

More market warnings of recession and slowdowns.By JOHNREDWOOD | Published: FEBRUARY 28, 2020The UK 10 year state borrowing rate fell to 0.43% today. Meanwhile the German share index was one of the worst performers, falling another 4.6% as some in the markets pencilled in a German recession.Still no new economic actions  from western governments or Central Banks.

Are they even testing though in India Diku

It's the absence of testing that is the problem. That and using the wrong kind of testing(ie methods that are 50/50 in giving you the actual correct result)

Africa would be another worry - Ethiopia. Gateway for Chinese to Africa.
