Coronavirus - Dig In, It's going to be a while yet

:pint:

So what you are saying is Denmark & ourselves are headed for yet another draw?

My only remaining hope is that we beat the UK on deaths per capita.

Denmark arenā€™t letting anybody in or out are they? Flights are grounded.

This suggests relative weight of people:

  1. Density
  2. Proximity
  3. Numbers

Far more important than initially thought.

If true this greatly influences our ā€œexit strategiesā€ on Coronavirus ie. no immediate return to mass public transport or mass sport/cultural events etc.

This has many other implications:

It suggests that lockdowns could be actually far more successful than previous hopes BUT that various pre lockdown practices should be delayed as long as possible - potentially till 2021.

Note this is based on current German thinking.

In other words - societies need to think about not just shortterm containment of virus but on changing medium term practices.

If this research holds up expect to see incentivising home working + slower phased return to public events than previously thought over next 2 years.

This research also seems to confirm why London has remained so far ahead of rest of the UK in Coronavirus cases.

Itā€™s the one place where human density, numbers & proximity could not be mitigated so easily by individual actions until the lockdown.
Same applies to New York.

This would seem to provide an explanation as to why Cheltenham was so much more dangerous than the Liverpool-Madrid gameā€¦even tho Madrid fans came from CV hotspot.

It was mixed mass nature of Cheltenham that was so dangerous not the mere presence of some infected people.

So youā€™re saying the virus will spread easier if loads of people are in the same place at once?

Yet there isnā€™t much corona virus in cheltenham/Gloucester yet Liverpool is on the verge of becoming one of the worst hit places in the ukā€¦

Just listening to Sean O Rourke on the wireless
Collette Browne (journo) wanted Leo in the Dail answering questions from the like of Boyd-Barrett and some FF clowns

Leo is busy trying to save the country, he doesnā€™t have time to listen to some loud mouths looking for attention

I donā€™t think they are? Theyā€™re only allowing in freight and citizens I thought.

That would make an impact but at the same time you are still going to have Danes with no symptoms flying in. That will slow it down a bit more than allowing everyone in but thatā€™s it.

We arenā€™t going to be able to eradicate the spread without a lot of luck. Itā€™s down to controlling it out in realityā€¦

Who is saying Leo is busy? He is free for photo ops but not parliament?

Leo is standing for multiple photo ops every day after having briefing with the PR guy he just hired during the crisis- the flushirts are falling for it hook, line and sinkerā€¦

Dole queues are horrendous for spreading it

It wasnā€™t there fault they got drawn against Madrid in fairness. Klopps comments are quite sad I felt.

What did he say?

Not a valid comparison. Many of the people at Cheltenham werenā€™t from Cheltenham. Most of those at Anfield for the Champions League are probably from Liverpool or the general Merseyside/The Wirral area.

well there is a surprise, China sending pure shite over

It probably has always been shite thereā€™s just a closer eye being cast upon it now

Liverpool is way down the ladder of affected areas.
