Perhaps my associates are just lucky but I only know of three people who had it. One in the US and two in the U.K. All recovered although the one in the US was worse than the other two. I don’t know anybody in Japan, HK, Singapore, Australia or India who has caught it. Edited October 23, 2020 by AVB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also doesn't have several international hub airports and the biggest financial capital in the world. Aren't they also on the naughty-list for constantly lying about their violent crime statistics? If they're willing to lie about that, Covid wouldn't add any extra sleepless nights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raja Clavata Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 Just seen on the news that it's not even in the top ten causes of death in the UK in the past month. No consolation for the dead or long COVID sufferers but reinforces the view that the world economy has been tanked for questionable reasons (in the grand scheme of things).

discobob Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 Well after hearing Drakeford on the radio news just before I think that he is doing it because he has a Messiah Complex - and apparently another Welsh Minister has said "we are not trying to save Christmas, but lives" and hinted at another lockdown for the festive period.

I’m in the at risk group ( just ) apparently, and although I don’t want the virus I’m hardly in hiding. I intend to get on with my life as normally as restrictions will allow. Im out beating tomorrow for the first time this season, and will be going to the pub for a few jars following. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
