Italy may be seriously bad as it has an ageing population, plus this virus, even though it dies above 27 degrees C in the open air, is quite tolerant to cold.

It's been hotter than that in Florida for most of March, 35C where I was working 80 miles south of home today, and yet it's still spreading...  |
The length of time it lasts on the surface depends on factors such as temperature and the type of surface, for example at around 37C (98F), it can survive for two to three days on glass, fabric, metal, plastic or paper.
Apparently a persistent little bugger. |

I wonder if they'll use this time to invade anyone? How is that area of the Chinese sea going where they've stolen it and been quietly building all the synthetic island military and naval bases? |
I'll not argue with you.
Anyone who disagrees with your woollen theses has to suffer your karma bashing wrath.
Nazis and Religious freaks get off on that sort of thing. |
Sorry, I nearly got you mixed up with Knobend the Dwarf.
Nobody has that much Small Man Syndrome as my Karma chart shows.
Personally, I reckon Ste gives and Nobby takes. Anyone else want a guess?

Those figures are an irrelevance unless you current quote active cases. Until that point those figures could go either way, death or recovered.
Germany, for example was a late starter so even though they currently have a low deaths figure, many cases of infection are still ongoing and that figure will shoot up. They have almost 20,000 ongoing cases, compared to the UK at under 4,000.

Testing figures are also misleading, those above suggest that Germany tested far more people at an earlier stage than the UK and, in doing so, found more cases. Here in Florida it has only been a few days since opening up testing to all suspected, prior to that if you hadn't been abroad or in contact with a known case then you could go whistle.

I seem to remember hearing that the UK at one point had tested over 35,000 and only found around 2,000 cases. This suggests a lot of people are being tested without serious identifiable symptoms. If they were, do they just have a cold do you think, or does the figure include a lot of the civil service, rich and sports stars?

Why bother directing a post at me then Towelling Horror?
For the attention? The drama?
Just block me, or join the other SMS gang members.

When he replies to you, it's kind of like when the nutter gets on the bus and he sits next to you, isn't it?

It should be legal to carry a chloroform-soaked handkerchief.

In South Korea (pop. 51m), they're doing around 4,000 tests per million people. It can test about 15,000 daily. They can do a drive-through test, and get the results in a day.
Here (pop. 67m), our government plans to do 10,000 a day, eventually reaching 25,000 tests a day by this time next month. |

It might make more sense if we knew whether having had it, one then had immunity. But does someone who is immune no longer pose a threat as a carrier?
