He said that expected increases in National Health Service capacity and ongoing restrictions to people’s movements make him “reasonably confident” the health service can cope when the predicted peak of the epidemic arrives in two or three weeks. UK deaths from the disease are now unlikely to exceed 20,000, he said, and could be much lower.”
His comments come as a team at the University of Oxford released provisional findings of a different model that they say shows that up to half the UK population could already have been infected. The model is based on different assumptions to those of Ferguson and others involved in advising the UK government.”

Gee, wonder if these guys did the climate modeling as well?

  1. I was just telling Pascal that I am reminded of the Hurricane coverage from the media, wherein the reporter is leaning into a wind machine standing in a ditch while passerby are in the background unscathed.
    Or the Syrian firefight filmed in Kentucky.
    It’s just hard to believe them.

      And my favorite-Don Henley’s Dirty Laundry

      I make my living off the evening news
      Just give me something-something I can use
      People love it when you lose,
      They love dirty laundry
      Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
      I just have to look good, I don’t have to be clear
      Come and whisper in my ear
      Give us dirty laundry
      Kick ’em when they’re up
      Kick ’em when they’re down
      Kick ’em when they’re up
      Kick ’em when they’re down
      Kick ’em when they’re up
      Kick ’em when they’re down
      Kick ’em when they’re up
      Kick ’em all around
      We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blond
      Who comes on at five
      She can tell you ’bout the plane crash with a gleam in her eye
      It’s interesting when people die
      Give us dirty laundry
      Can we film the operation?
      Is the head dead yet?
      You know, the boys in the newsroom got a running bet
      Get the…

    Good news. Globalism has taken one big hit. Did you ever see borders reappear with such vigour? But now China has moved like lightening to help Czechia, Slovenia, and Slovakia. Interesting too much as these places with Poland and Hungary will be the new Europe as the weakling West is crushed by the barbarians from Isla8m.
