Not every person needs a hospital bed , some will have a bad cold and fight it off, however it's the self isolation that will kill the economy

[1 nhs] 29/2/2020 16:40

That’s 40% in a hospital bed for weeks plus every ICU bed for hundreds of miles

[1 nhs] 29/2/2020 16:39

Here we go

Look at these truly scary numbers.


Then work on the assumption their are :

ZERO HOSPITAL BEDS FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Italy is the European country most affected by the coronavirus.

Twenty-one people have so far succumbed in Italy to the coronavirus, Covid-19.

The number of contaminations has reached 821.

According to the most recent data collected by Italian authorities, 412 infected people show little or no symptoms.

They are not hospitalized and are placed in quarantine at home. In addition, 345 people are hospitalized, including 64 in intensive care. The number of healed people is 46 so far.

Firstly, it can't be a chance of zero if there are beds available.Secondly, cases of coronavirus in the UK won't pass 100.

[1 nhs] 29/2/2020 16:33

Number of hospital beds in the United Kingdom (UK) 2000-2017
Whereas in 2000, there were over 241 thousand beds in the UK, by 2017 this figure was approximately 167.6 thousand. This means over this sixteen-year period there were over 70 thousand fewer hospital beds in the UK.


ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT ALL NON EMERGENCY ADMISSIONS ARE CANCELLED

A FAIR GUESS IS 50,000 FREE AVAILABLE BEDS, ON DAY ONE.

HOWEVER EACH SICK PATIENT REQUIRES THAT BED FOR WEEKS TO DIE OR RECOVER.

FREE BEDS FOR 60 MILLION U.K. POPULATION AFTER WEEK 4 : 10,000


CHANCE OF YOU, OR YOUR FAMILY GETTING A PLACE IN HOSPITAL IS ZERO

THE SAME CHANCE AS IN THE TRIRD WORLD

[spacedust] 29/2/2020 16:08

There more cases in UK.

The main thing is the authorities are trying to stop it becoming as common as the common flu. Else if it does then obviously there would be many times more deaths. That is unarguable.

The Chinese realised they had people dying by the hundreds months ago.

That’s why they acted in the way they did shutting down the whole country.

Pressure soon built, ( as it will everywhere else in the world ) to get the economy moving again.

That’s where we are today.


Unfortunately for the Chinese, just as workers return to work ,the virus surges, at the very time that the rest of the world, discovers true infection and death rates, in their own countries.

World wide panic and depression ensues.

Corona: "WHO head Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also stressed that fear and misinformation were the biggest challenges to overcome." From the BBC article found here

By Wednesday of this week, the number of virus cases, on a pro rata basis, in South Korea will have overtaken CHINA.

(South Korea tells the truth .)


This is unequivocal evidence that the Chinese official numbers are Totally false.

This true virus infection rate, is 10, 50,100, or 1,000 Times higher, than the world has been told by the Chinese.

Numbers today

China 1.3BN POPULATION Virus cases 80,000

South Korea 50 Million Virus cases 3,000

[hamhamham1] 29/2/2020 10:49

The with the common flu if x amount of people get it then over 650,000 die, true.
But the reason the authorities are going nuts and locking down places to control it is becasue this coronavirus strain kills 10x as many as the common fly.
So if the same x amount of people catch coronavirus the statistics say that there will be over 6.5 million deaths.
That is the whole reason for isplatimg it, similar with sars, that had a 10% death rate but was contained to a far greater extent.

Does amaze me that some people think the share price of a FTSE company the size of IAG can be influenced by posts on ADVFN.Can understand it a little with AIM stocks but seeing it on BP, VOD and IAG does make me chuckle sometimes

[daveboy1] 29/2/2020 09:02

1 NHS - have the weekend off, sir.

[m1k3y1] 29/2/2020 08:05

The common flu causes up to 5 million cases of severe illness worldwide and kills up to 650,000 people every year, according to the World Health Organization



'The common flu is far deadlier'.

[1 nhs] 29/2/2020 07:36

Mankind has been totally overwhelmed by the virus.

The death rate is a lagging the statistic, by a mile.

The dreadful, horrible truth, will expose to the world, how the Chinese have tricked us all, into believing the spread of the virus is contained, with an accompanying low fatality rate.

This stunning revelation will come to light in the first 14 days of March.

The worlds population are about to override government actions by closing borders to protect themselves.

The only planes in the sky by 13/03/20 will be Aid and Military.

[hamhamham1] 29/2/2020 03:42

NPP62, just to keep it factual, based upon published figures, it's not 1-2% death rate, it's over 3%.

Cases = 85,207
Deaths = 2,924
Ratio = 3.43%

Can anyone confirm this ???
(But I guess there are probably more cases unknown, but going on official figures, the above is correct)
And this makes it x10 more fatalities than standard flu)

[daveboy1] 28/2/2020 22:29

Evening, I also hold your sensible pov, and hope we are on the right track going forward. I should have said I refer to 1NHS and Spacedust. They are probably fast asleep now and dreaming of many more negative permutations ! Best wishes.

[npp62] 28/2/2020 22:08

No negativity from me! I'll say again... There won't be a vaccine for at least 12 months. Not a chance. However this is just another strain of flu. SARS (different but still a virus) had an 8?% mortality rate and we didn't have all this fuss. This has a 1-2% mortality rate. Normal flu kills 100-200 people a year in this country and there's never a sniff of panic! Let's have some perspective! I'm in at 469, and happy to add on the inevitable weakness knowing that this price will look like a bargain in 12 months time!

[daveboy1] 28/2/2020 21:31

Tedious negativity yet again. You two must be tremendous pint pals, not.

[npp62] 28/2/2020 21:26

DOW rallied to just 1.3% down actually. As far as I know the North Pole isn't a continent as it's an ice flow. No land underneath. Antarctica is a continent however.... More Geography lessons tomorrow :-)

[spacedust] 28/2/2020 20:52

How people were affected by sar
In how many countries

Jeez to compare the 2 is ridiculous. Thus damn virus is growing every day it's now in every single continent apart from the north pole.

Some thing doesn't feel right about this virus. Lots of lies.

The market is telling you the truth. Dow to collapse in last 5mins

[1 nhs] 28/2/2020 20:49

Next week is going to be far worse than the last.

Reason

Death rates start to jump outside China.

Look for heaps more deaths from the cruise ship to show up

5 out of 600; so far.

[m1k3y1] 28/2/2020 20:32

geees more scare mongering .......can we just give it a rest please.
