33,000 more beds being readied

[Lord Grim]

Thats some scary statistics and even more scary if that's not accounting for when it takes hold of some of the underdeveloped countries.

That’s this country alone.

That’s this country alone.

Shit!

 

[Lord Grim]

Shit!

Based on government projections of 2% of a total population of (almost) 68 million. Tbf, the final total is likely to be significantly lower, this is worst case.

Is this if it's left alone to take it's course? Or how it's likely to progess even with us battling against it?

I read the government were looking at the feasibility of hooking up two people to one ventilator in the make shift 4000 bed hospital.

Holy shit. Is there no end to this pathetic govs fcukwiterry?

@RAPTOREX they also missed out on taking part in an EU ventilator procurement scheme because somebody allegedly overlooked an email.

"Missed out". Short for rabid racist gov doesn't like foreigners. Possibly?

I don’t want to upset anyone, or lose friends as I did when I posted this on FB yesterday. But I’ve done some sums, and at the worst estimate, we stand to lose 1.36 million of our friends and family before this is done.

Oh lord. That's heart breaking.

It’s the worst case scenario based on current compliance and transmission data, as of yesterday. It may have changed in this fluid environment.

If you think that's frightening. Just imagine what it's like to be a US citizen. They haven't had a properly functions health system for over 35 years. They're looking at 10 times that.

You lost FB friends over that? It doesn't sound like a very nice place to visit.
