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

I was never on it, mate. The figures didn’t add up.

What are you on about, countries that have had BCG immunization have 10% of the cases and deaths as countries that have never had it. The US is fucked because they never had much TB and didn’t see the need for the vaccine.

Germany never had BCG.

How does East v West Germany compare

She cited the example of Germany – which publishes a map tracing the development of the epidemic throughout its territory and illustrating the spread of the disease in great detail – and stressed that there is a significant difference between former East Germany and former West Germany: the former GDR is up to three times less affected.

That’s the 6000 cases sent to Germany getting added to the total. Tony will have us in the pubs by the May bank holiday

In the end, gut health will have proved to be the difference.

The key numbers now are ICUs and deaths, with tests out today as well. A big jump because a lot of tests were processed doesn’t mean a whole lot. I expect we’ll have tested quite a few in the last week even though the HSE were cautious.

So numbers going up is good, eh?

If as stated here earlier that 6,000 cases were tested and only 400 came back positive I’d say that’s a decent result. Around 6% or so. If you assumed the same for all of the back log we aren’t too much worse off than what we already know. Those numbers are irrelevant now anyway

Who said 400?

Give over, this thing is done. Time to get the economy back up and running now.
