Coronavirus

Blimey, you’re spikey today.

How about using real sentences, then people might understand your ramblings.

Is it 1030? Are you bored. Keep it on topic boys. London pricks like your friends are the people not taking the threat seriously.

Anyone understand what this outburst is about?

A desperate need for attention mostly.

It’s free money

Yes, it's a grant not a loan as I said.

The Dog ate my kids homework and the kids.

Now that's using your head.

Technicallly it is the dog using its head.

So my niece is out of hospital thankfully. Covid test came back negative and then the specialist told my sister they were still fairly certain she'd had it and that the tests were only 75% accurate.

Sister in law was showing symptoms (nhs worker) a couple of days ago, went into self isolation, but they didn’t test. Haven’t had an update yet.

My mate is still in hospital. Got a couple of texts from him yesterday, it’s the first time he’s been well enough for a week. He’s had an up and down week. Out of ICU but still on oxygen. They’re trying to reduce his oxygen but every time they do he gets worse. As soon as he’s off the O2 they’ll send him home to recover. His lungs are pretty fucked in the short term, no idea on prognosis for longer.

Hopefully he's out of the woods.

Small mercies eh? Hope he's out of there soon.

Great news.

Sounds like good news though if he’s out of the ICU.

I‘m sure I read that the vast majority of corona virus sufferers won’t suffer any permanent damage to their lungs.

Was he put on a ventilator in ICU?

[NotoriousREV]

Was he put on a ventilator in ICU?

I’ve no idea. He doesn’t remember much of the last few days and his wife hasn’t been allowed in to see him. The hospital hasn’t told her much, but she has a mate who’s a nurse at the same hospital so she’s been finding stuff out for her.

I hope all these measures mean we actually have something to go back to, we are staring down the barrel of a biggest recession/depression, er, ever!

[DaveE]

I was reading about that $2.2tn bailout that Trump signed off recently.

That's 3x the 2008 finance collapse bailout.

It's also 10% of US GDP.

[ZedLeg]

and it looks like a large amount of it is just going to disappear into corporate bank accounts.

They must be laughing just now. This is exactly what Trump was put into the office to do.
