No. What I'm saying is that its selective news. I've said before on here that it is possible to use data to prove any point you want. In the Times today it was reported that there were 9 more deaths in the 1st week of October than last year. This suggests that people who were dying of flu for...

67 yesterday was it? How do we know those 241 people died of COVID? How many non Covid deaths were there today? I’m at the point where the information we are being given is so one sided, I’m starting to question everything that’s being reported by a highly malleable press. Sent from my...

Just watched Keir Starmer. I wish he’d show a bit more gumption other than moaning about the economic impact. What annoys me about this is that there is absolutely no debate. We are having measures imposed on us without having any ability to question the decisions being made. The information we...

We can’t even go to the Winchester now and wait for it all to blow over.... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Totally agree with you. I’ve stopped watching the news and just flick through the multiple hysteria in the online papers I read. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You’re completely missing my point. The normality with which people are conducting their day to day lives is in direct contrast to what we are reading and seeing in the media. A city centre was full of people and no one was wearing a mask. If everything was to be believed, no one would have...

Just back from shopping in Manchester City Centre with my daughter. It was rammed and in four hours I saw 2 masks - an Asian couple behind me in a queue. There were old people, young people, middle aged people all going about their business in a perfectly normal way. Bars and restaurants...

And therein lies the absolute crux of the problem. My partner is an overworked NHS ward sister. Her ward is full 24/7 365 days a year. There is a winter escalation ward currently open for elderly admissions. Staff are on their knees The NHS is chronically understaffed with doctors and nurses...

No. Blind misinformed panic will make the situation worse....... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Absolutely this. The scaremongering on this is unreal and some of the posts on here are bordering on sheer panic. Try spouting some of these stats to my partner who’s a ward sister and she’ll tell you there are far more important things to worry about - like savings peoples lives who are...

Still alive here. Reading the stuff on this thread, I’m bound to get it soon though. I work in London and regularly go to the centre of Brighton. I’m doomed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Wearing a mask is pretty unusual on a trading floor in the City of London......

This is one of the many many things I don't get about this. Does anyone seriously think wearing a mask is going to make any difference? And how many people in the UK have got it now? Jeez if we believed everything we read in the press about this we wouldn't go out at all. Meanwhile hospital...

1. It doesn't "offend" me. 2. I have lived and worked all over the world. So you "guessed" wrong

Was walking through the office yesterday (I work in London). And a Japanese guy came past me wearing a mask. I had to do a double take. Assume he thinks he’ll be in charge of the company when us reckless types (ie the other 600 people in the building) all die. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep. My other half is an NHS ward sister and she tells me that fax machines are the main way hospitals communicate over patient records... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Stop reading garbage on the internet then and the sensationalist rubbish in the press. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I can’t believe some of the panicky crap I’m reading on here..... Wondering how I’ve managed to stay alive this long to be honest. I’ve not worn a face mask or anything. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
