The life giving properties of a decent bubble tea (not the pale imitation that was available in Manchester until recently

Actually there was an analysis on twitter of that graph and you can genuinely group countries doing well (China, SK, Singapore , Japan) and those not doing well on whether they have a blanket TB immunisation policy. Whether that is just a weird coincidence or not isn't know, there is much we still need to learn

The lunchtime news reported that there could be an outbreak coming in Tokyo - parks now closed, main areas becoming deserted after being packed last weekend Although public transport still busy according to the report

You can add Eastern Europe to this

You're right: but did you check your party's election manifesto for this before voting? Did anyone?? Ever?

I made an assessment of the character of the party leaders and therefore an estimation of their aptitude in dealing with a crisis of this scale, and also of their party's history and attitude regarding the NHS.

But @Rusty Nails is right, this should be a thing that the civil service have in hand. I've said it before, but every NHS trust in the country will have a major incident plan which, as soon as such an incident is declared, swings into action with (hopefully) everybody knowing their roles and responsibilities, what to do, who to report to, which services to suspend, etc etc. We should have had that on a nationwide level.

Renzi, despite being as pro EU as they come from Italy had no reserves criticising initial response of ECB ( now somewhat corrected through PEPP) and EC (which is only now allowing for the suspension of fiscal rules)
Therefore my comment stands, not only far right anti EU politicans are not very happy with the response of the union

And is Renzi attempting to use that criticism to exploit coronavirus to win votes for Italia Viva, like Salvini is for Lega Nord?

Bubble tea? Seriously?

Also deaths in UK in week to 20th of March compared to the average from last 5 yr
10645 vs 10573
Total increase of 72

The week to 20th March? So that was when there had been 177 coronavirus deaths but what's the similar analysis for this week say now there's been more than 2300 coronavirus deaths?

He is a politican
Do you think he is using it to loose votes?

Unfortunately ONS is not as fast as CC forum so we will have to wait untill fresh data available

I think he was probably using it to push the EU to greater action. Where's the vote-winning propaganda element? Can you post a link to any credible report of an Italia Viva politician pulling a stunt like the reported dismantling of an EU flag which provoked your earlier comment?

 

[Eziemnaik]

What I have been saying.
Even pro EU politicians are not happy with direction taken by EU institutions. That they are doing this because they belive in the European project all the better as far as I am concerned

Wait for the "but it is not the flu" crowd

Interesting as BCG was routine in UK schools between 1953 and 2005. So oldest would now be 67.
