Getting the numbers rightBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: APRIL 26, 2020I am glad to read today that the government is dropping the Chinese death figures from CV 19 from it deaths graph, as they cannot be sure about the basis on which they are compiled.They might like to adjust the other country death figures to numbers per million of population to make them a bit more meaningful. There will still be differences in basis for regarding a death as a CV 19 death, and differences from density of population and other factors not related to disease management and healthcare.I also read that London paramedic advice is being altered to ensure a higher proportion of Covid 19 cases are taken to hospital. If this is true, then the London figures for hospital admissions becomes a useless guide  as recent figures will clearly be relatively higher than older figures.The government needs consistent and accurate figures as a basis for decision making. Hospital admissions was the best series they showed, as I assume they have in place the right procedures for counting patients actually in hospital. They also said they tested the patients to see if they had CV 19.  No-one has any idea how many people in the community have or have had CV 19.

Car pics will do nicely Alp.

Cash is still honoured in most places, welcomed even. Stop splitting hairs.

[alphorn] 25/4/2020 23:40

max - very late - still time to pick an argument!!!

Your last sentence is not true - cash is not accepted everywhere.
Sfr 1,000 notes are not widely accepted.

More car pics tomorrow?

I thought it was pretty clear Min, but you seem to have missed the point.


ie: Someone else has control over what you spend your money on...you need permission, whatever the amount. It's all reported, it's all subject to change at someone elses whim.

Cash is still cash, needs no reports or checks. Accepted everywhere.

Doctor in Netflix’s ‘Pandemic’ says he discovered potential coronavirus cure


A San Francisco doctor featured in the Netflix documentary “Pandemic” announced that he and his team have discovered a potential coronavirus cure — which will now be tested by the US military.

Jacob Glanville, who runs the biotech company Distributed Bio, tweeted that the new antibody therapy, which works by “blocking the novel coronavirus from infecting human cells,” is a “candidate cure” for the deadly bug that has swept 180 countries and territories.

“I’m happy to report that my team has successfully taken five antibodies that back in 2002 were determined to bind and neutralize, block and stop the SARS virus,” Glanville told the Radio New Zealand program “Checkpoint.” “We’ve evolved them in our laboratory, so now they very vigorously block and stop the SARS-CoV-2 [COVID-19] virus as

Wrong.

Proton was an electronic purse application for debit cards in Belgium. The system was introduced in February 1995 with the goal to replace cash primarily for small transactions around € 15. For security, the card was limited to storing 125,00 EUR of available electronic cash (originally 5,000 BEF).

The card was used for small payments without a pin code or signature, and ran the same risk as with ordinary cash in that if the card was lost the cash value allocated to the card would also be lost. - WIKI


So if it was a "permission to buy instrument" - as you think it was - the cash value would be able to be recovered if lost.

A bank note is only a 'promise to deliver to the bearer'.


Perhaps you belong to the great unwashed. ;)

The internet is awash with rumours that Kim is either dead or in a vegetative state. Apparently, something went wrong when a stent was being inserted.

What timing, if true!

[maxk] 25/4/2020 20:59

There is no such thing as electronic cash for the great unwashed (that includes you Min)


What you have with plastic is a permission to buy instrument, not the same thing at all.

But that reasoning is probably beyond your mental capabilities.

I see Schwan of Roche is sticking his nose into our politics. You'd think he might have had enough to do running the company.
