Where does this 21 year old fit into the figures. Or was that yesterday? 

---

 

She passed away on the 20th or 21st I think

She died last week

---

Experts are still saying deaths in the UK could reach the expected 20,000 but they are hoping it could well be a bit lower , I just don't see anywhere near that number 

---

28 deaths. We have the chance here to contain this and prevent an Italy/Spain type situation unfolding. This will all hinge on everybody playing their part.

Given the numbers, I am now wondering whether the UK did in fact get a weaker strain of this around Christmas as some people have been saying.

The 47-year-old patient is not believed to have had underlying health conditions. The other 27 patients all had underlying health conditions.

Yes, an encouragingly low number today. Let's hope that it is the beginning of us curbing the spread and not just an anomaly. We'll know soon enough.

1.5k confirmed cases today slightly up on yesterdays 

---

Yes I’m convinced I’ve had it or hoping so had much worse flu over the years if it is the case.

 

 

A doctor said today the virus generally takes about 3 weeks to take a life , on March 4th we had 34 confirmed cases 

---

Evan Davis from the BBC is convinced he had it in January - we need those antibody test kits so we can find out who really has had it.

---

 

Do we know how many tests were done?

---

Thanks, but were we told at the time that someone so young died without any underlying conditions ? I don't recall that.  Normally the message has been they all had underlying conditons? 

---

Yes exactly - taking notice of a slight blip downwards in the number of deaths at the moment is like being cheered by the sea level dropping a bit before the tsunami. These numbers will be absolutely dwarfed in another couple of weeks, add a couple of zeroes I expect. I very much hope to be wrong about this but given the growth in the number of cases I think that’s unlikely. 

Re the 21-year-old I am sure the story I read said she died on Tuesday, ie yesterday. 

---

I don’t like to stamp on people’s hopes and desperately hope we have turned a corner....But I urge caution. We have some way to go. Volume of cases in the last four days have gotten higher - sadly this means that over the next 7-10 days it’s likely that could translate into more deaths.

I only say this because diagnosis and the death are not immediate and often can be 10-14 days. This is why you see ICUs become saturated

---

You honestly think with the huge challenges facing the government that parking charges was on the list?

I'm absolutely certain that if you were dealing with a crisis you wouldn't be worrying about trivia, which, with respect, is what car parking charges are. Yes, it's a nice gesture but the precise timing is not relevant.

Well, just to pour a little cold water on the proceedings with some anecdotal evidence from my county, Worcestershire. Spoke to my daughter at lunchtime today and she told me that around a week ago, there were 10 hospitalised cases in Worcestershire, whilst today, Worcestershire Royal Hospital now has eight wards full of corona virus patients - given that each ward has around 20 beds, that makes for @ 160 patients in that one hospital requiring critical care.

A friend of my sister has it.

She caught it  after  doing the rounds of London pubs and clubs and public transport about 3 weeks ago.  Spent 2 hours in  a car with my sis and her other half on the 16th March.  and developed symptoms a day or so later. Sis hasn't developed any symptoms  yet but is  in  self isolation.  My sisters friend started of with relativity mild symptoms (cough but no fever) but has now just been carted off to hospital on oxygen and intravenous    antibiotics - it doesn't  look at all good    She is circa 60 with no known underlying health issues.

It seems to be if you can shake this ****** thing off   after a few days you are OK, if your body can't kick it out quickly  the risks escalate !

Donald Trump is starting to become unhinged even more so they normal.

This is dangerous. He is playing to his base, who ironically have t been impacted hard as they tend to live in more sparsely populated areas.

The LameStream Media is the dominant force in trying to get me to keep our Country closed as long as possible in the hope that it will be detrimental to my election success. The real people want to get back to work ASAP. We will be stronger than ever before!
