The numbers are going to balloon due to the backlog of tests being caught up on and the likelyhood of positives increasing due to the more than one sypmtom approach. The new approach will have reduced the backlog but there still is one.
So for a few days the real gauge will be the hospitalisations/icu/deaths.

The gauge of 2.5% of diagnosed cases in ICU is exceptionally good and if we are saying that a lot more people have it than the official numbers then we are saying that could be pushed down a lot further.

The addition of a second symptom hugely increases the likelihood of it being covid, a single symptom (fever) would mean people who were just food poisoned on would be looking for tests today (and fine tomorrow but gumming up the works).

So 88% of people have fever but 12% don't so they will be taking those 12% out of the testing criteria. Fair enough if they don't have the capacity but they will be missing cases. Claire Byrne for example had no fever, so she wouldn't be tested now.

+43 deaths in the UK bringing the total to 437

RIP the two people who died here.

People who blatantly flout the guidelines like our friends licking toilet bowls or idiots queuing for chips, or sitting in packed pubs certainly should be made feel guilty. Those people willingly put others in danger. People whose lives were hanging in the balance anyhow in many cases had their fate sealed by ignoramus'.

But the vast majority of people haven't been doing this. It's the same when we have a bad storm we always get excited about the 10 people out of 5 million who go for a swim. Its focusing on the negative.

Apparantly only +28 new deaths for England, according to the Guardian. Very low if true, certainly compared to yesterday.

+41 for the UK in total.

Bit down so, that's good.

I still worry for Britain over the next couple of weeks though, especially London.

London, Madrid, New York... These cities are not Bergamo, and the social distancing measures have not been strong.

I spoke to a nurse today working on one of the testing centres. She was quite positive about what she was seeing, felt we had acted early enough and that we weren't looking like things are going to get away from us like Italy or Spain as long as people didn't get complacent

Looks like you need to be on deaths door before you'll get a test now.

A sizeable percentage were.

Nothing to do about being negative.

It's being realistic that these irresponsible people will cause other people to become sick and possibly enable it to be spread to people who could die!

Thanks! That echoes my feeling right now. I know there is a surge coming, but hoping our actions keep it only a little surge.

It's those idiots who cause the bother and cost lives of innocent people. People like that should be paraded for all to see as the idiots that they are. It's only when people are afraid of being shown up that they act responsibly. It's one of the reasons scumbags run riot in large estates. There's no one saying look at Pat Murphy's lad acting the bollox again and calling them out. It's a major societal problem.

How can some people be fine with this and show no symptoms or mild symptoms and others are serious/critical and young 20 year olds dying?

caveat emptor · 25-03-2020 10:10PM

I thought masks don't work. Why are EU finance ministers wearing them in a meeting?

Clear case of look at what people do, not what they say.

Embedded for you. Just add rSOpxPX49ks to the tags, without the bit beforehand.

That looks like an invasion. What the hell do the Russians know?

Epidemiology is a funny thing. It combines so many factors.

I remember watching a documentary on the Boxing Day tsunami. It was amazing how the tsunami affected regions so differently, depending on geography, preparedness, wave interaction, lots of stuff. Even places close together, one beach was just fine, a nearby coastline was devastated.

BorneTobyWilde · 25-03-2020 10:13PM

More deaths on the road this month than at the hands of Covid 19.

gabeeg · 25-03-2020 10:14PM

Lads, I don't think anyone has mentioned this yet - but I think we should have a discussion about the benefits of wearing a face mask

Deaths per 1 million people:
Italy - 124
Spain - 74
Iran - 25
Holland -21
France - 20
Switerland - 81
Belgium - 15
UK - 6
USA - 3
Ireland - 2
Canada - 0.8

Relatively speaking for their population the USA have done well so far. If they had the same rate as Italy they would be on 41,000 deaths by now.

I hope so, the thing is people getting complacent, the I’ll be grand attitude kicking in. Gotta keep up what we are doing to the Nth degree.

Ditto. I think we are going the right way, but must continue as is for the immediate future to truly push it down.

America is the new epicentre now

Dare i say probably another cohort of people that don't follow guidelines...

Don't speed
Don't Drink and drive
Don't Drive when tired
Don't Drive on drugs

the list goes on, but you have people that know better up and down the country.... but a small % pay the price - or else they leave an innocent family paying the price...

They look to be the type of bulk carrier trucks that spray disinfectant like in Korea / china. May not be. Weird though.

Because they do work but they are in short supply, therefore only medics...and ministers? Get them...

Take a look at this by a truly 'Brilliant' person, his comments on masks are at the end.

Yeah but if road deaths increased 20% to 30% per day they would look pretty different really quickly. Not sure how you can link a pandemic with road deaths.
