Covid 19 ::: The final throw (in desperation) by the anti-Brexit Fear mongers!


Well it COULD be . . . . . ?

No sympathy for airlines.. they use every opportunity to screw the travelers... and they will do so after virus period.
I expect their prices will double and in some cases three times as much from we use to pay.
Hotels will do the same...


Holidays are over for most people

Stop it Pierre, you'll only confuse them.

Point 1 - agreed
Point 2 - disagree, see my post above
Point 3 - incomprehensible
point 4 - hope so.

What we don't want to see is an Irrational behavior on the way up. Not too many or big gaps.

Sorry every body...what an oaf I am
All and every model is wrong..inaccurate and incomplete
Every thing the minidi and peaiary post is true accurate and a simple fact
75p by Christmas!

Rofl minny, you have no idea what type of model we are talking about at all!

[minerve 2] 07/4/2020 14:25

They already have an accurate model from China, but of course that model depends on strong leadership and a moral code of temporarily putting lives before economics in order to achieve it.

Well, I was expecting 32p by Wednesday but it's seems to me now we will see 34p sometime this week. Good signs so far the Lloyds curve line is balancing now at the bottom and soon we will have an upward line to 38p

Smarty, modelling software for a new virus with limited data will be 'ill behaved'. That is, they are over dependent on the assumptions, with small changes in assumptions leading to large changes in predicted results. Maybe the models are better than nothing (most are simply a moderated gaussian curve, with parameters guessed at by the researchers (educated guesses), they aren't accurate, and if you read the research paper, if there is one, the accuracy would be discussed. In a year's time, with accurate data to go on, the models will be very accurate imv, and very useful and trustworthy for future covid outbreaks.

Hey Mini, what news of NHS Porche 911 racers on your lane, are they wearing masks to prevent social spread of covid or disguise for shirking their duty?

Dodgy bird with zero credibility Sturgeon - "We are all willing you on Boris"

Ah, but she didn't say what she was willing him to, did she.

"I'm going to wish him well, I am, I'm sure that I am; so here goes, ahem, mmmm, er, ah, nay, fuggit - "we are all willing you on, Boris"."

"The researchers also forecast the UK would hit its peak of infections around April 17, while Germans can expect the highest number of deaths on April 19."

Infections or deaths? Not the same thing.

I don't understand how they can model peak infection on April 17th, I'm assuming they mean deaths otherwise how can peak infection occur during lockdown where families have already been living with each other for two weeks.

GB pound recovered and Lloy nearly at 32. Hope for more gains on DJI this afternoon.

It isn't a fact the anyone is doing 'a grand job'

They are opinions. Some have the opinion Boris is doing 'a grand job', others hold the opinion he isn't doing a grand job.

The crucial bit is that most welcome others holding a differing opinion to themselves, and don't wish others dead for doing so.

Simples.

"majority of these deaths will be in the United Kingdom"

Model predicts 151,680 coronavirus deaths in Europe.

Europe could see 151,680 deaths from the coronavirus during its first wave, a model created by researchers at the University of Washington predicted.

A majority of these deaths will be in the United Kingdom, where the researchers estimated as many as 66,000 people could die from COVID-19. In Italy, the initial epicenter of the outbreak in Europe, deaths could hit 20,000, according to the predictions released on Tuesday.

The researchers also forecast the UK would hit its peak of infections around April 17, while Germans can expect the highest number of deaths on April 19.

Narrow ShouldersPosted April 7, 2020 at 7:22 am | PermalinkAnother high profile victims to add to the list. I hope he recovers quickly and fully.Why does the media have to make out that the government now cannot cope? There is a policy and a structure in place to deal with situations such as this. But the media of course has to mke it out to be more of a crisis than it actually is to fill air time.I am fed up with self serving reporters making mountains out of molehills.I am am

Alp and ACE. Two drinking buddies from way back as I recall. Both from the same high and mighty I am set.
