Go on then, let’s have a look

Depends on how you count them.

The figs being bandied about are fiction, no standard methodology, so how can you compare?

More people died yesterday from the Coronavirus in the UK then in Italy, France, Germany and Spain combined


As the whole of the EU begins to open up and return to a safe new normal, the UK hunkers down for a long and deadly run.

This is not an accident or down to bad luck.

This terrible situation was caused by the fact that Boris is simply out of his depth.

Thanks Tories!

I wonder how well Boris Johnson is sleeping knowing he sat doing nothing, except sort out his divorce, for weeks while scientists told him that we weren't prepared and needed to lockdown pronto. Instead we had a prime minister allowing the Cheltenham festival to go ahead where in excess of 250k people mingled for 4 days. The horsey set needed their knees up whatever the cost #sackcummings

Johnson went on holiday to Kent on 15 Feb. That was 6 weeks after his Caribbean holiday. He came back to Downing St on the 27 Feb because SAGE were told on the 26th that 500,000 would die unless he acted. He then spent the next 2 weeks shaking hands with anyone he could find. Stupid and lazy beyond words.

Spot on Jacko...

More chance of catching salmonella, or hepatitis E from eating European produce.

Let the Consumer choose.

Have often holidayed in USA - never had any problems with the food.

If 291 set him off, he needs to grow up. I have spent a lot of time in the USA and I never once saw anyone die of eating a chlorinated chicken, more chance of food poisoning from EU horse meat.

The US food controls are as stringent as any country in Europe, their labelling is as full and clear as ours, you can buy organic chicken and free range chicken, it is your choice.

Minerve hates life, he hates anyone who doesn't agree with him so sadly he ends up hating everybody. I feel sorry for anyone who has a Minerve in their life, it must be a miserable existence tiptoeing around on eggshells in fear of tilting the brain into an uncontrolled rant.

No wonder he can't keep carers and his daughter couldn't wait to get on the Erasmus scheme.

diku - as well as personal financial data floating around someone's home when on the telephone. What is the wifi security in that neighbourhood as well?

indeed, endoscopy has been around for decades so 'can fit a camera/diode down ' is an idiot.

Damage to the tissue, probably so you wouldnt necessarily want to, but technically very feasible.

I can shine a torch through my hand, you wouldnt need to get so far into the lungs and nowhere near to the smallest sacs.

every comment that gets directed to Min is the reason he stays here, filter it and move on.

[maxk] 04/6/2020 11:08

I knew #291 would set him off :-)

[jacko07] 04/6/2020 11:04

Minnie..the way you are going it won't be long till the men in the white coats are knocking on your door.

Why carry on with your futile campaign, nobody is changing sides.

Food in the USA : From CDC Atlanta:-

Foodborne Illnesses
We estimate that each year in the United States, 31 pathogens caused 37.2 million (90% CrI 28.4–47.6 million) illnesses, of which 36.4 million (90% CrI 27.7–46.7 million) were domestically acquired; of these, 9.4 million (90% CrI 6.6–12.7 million) were foodborne (Table 2). We estimate that 5.5 million (59%) foodborne illnesses were caused by viruses, 3.6 million (39%) by bacteria, and 0.2 million (2%) by parasites. The pathogens that caused the most illnesses were norovirus (5.5 million, 58%), nontyphoidal Salmonella spp. (1.0 million, 11%), C. perfringens (1.0 million, 10%), and Campylobacter spp. (0.8 million, 9%).

Hospitalizations
We estimate that these 31 pathogens caused 228,744 (90% CrI 188,326–275,601) hospitalizations annually, of which 55,961 (90% CrI 39,534–75,741) were caused by contaminated food eaten in the United States (Table 3). Of these, 64% were caused by bacteria, 27% by viruses, and 9% by parasites. The leading causes of hospitalization were nontyphoidal Salmonella spp. (35%), norovirus (26%), Campylobacter spp. (15%), and T. gondii (8%).

Deaths
We estimate that these 31 pathogens caused 2,612 deaths (90% CrI 1,723–3,819), of which 1,351 (90% CrI 712–2,268) were caused by contaminated food eaten in the United States (Table 3). Of these, 64% were caused by bacteria, 25% by parasites, and 12% by viruses. The leading causes of death were nontyphoidal Salmonella spp. (28%), T. gondii (24%), L. monocytogenes (19%), and norovirus (11%).
