See, I wouldn't advocate assassination or anything like that, but if it were to happen this way, well, it'd be nature's way. Straight from a lab in CHIna.

I see my local MP has had symptoms of the Rona, travelled to Westminster anyway, been confirmed to indeed have the Rona and then travelled back by train.
Too convenient. Not a hope he has it.
They launched their nuclear command flights as a deterrent an hour before he tweeted. He has it. What possible positive effect could faking it have anyway?
Hid advisor has it, so he probably does. Wouldn't put it past him to fake it tho
If he's not seen on a golf course in the next three days, he has it.
Food for thought however from my colleague at the next desk, who says: 'Trump and Boris, two of the unhealthiest people going around, Boris is walking around drinking pints in Westminster, are we supposed to believe they had it? They would both be dead if they got it.'
A sanguine and well thought-out point to which I have no rebuttal.
Of all the leaders who've picked it up, he's been the closest to death. Bolsonaro took a while to shift it as well.
My Covid denying mate has pointed out if it is anywhere near as bad as the media have made out then Trump is definitely dead, which is a fair point.
Though last night he forwarded me an image of a cropped headline about a 'Covid revolt' in Middlesbrough and said 'I bet the media won't cover it!' To which I pointed out it was a cropped image of the Daily Mail
In what world is it a fair point? Most old people survive it. The odds aren't as comfortable, but it's not fucking Ebola.
I wonder what would do for the election? Does Pence stand in as the Republican nominee?
It's like 99.2% survival for people in his age group as opposed to 99.9%, and not everyone gets it the same. You can't read anything into anything.
I'd deffo be getting excited if it wasn't just the fact he's got a big arse and is a little old that people seem to think he is walking towards the light. Boris wasn't the norm.
Team Panic trying to claw back a late consolation goal. Cute.
I'm seeing 5-13% as the case fatality rate for 70-79s. Wipe off the millions not getting tested because they're not eating Northern takeaways and Jimmy probably ain't far off.
I'm smoking cold, hard statistics.
A baby at my son's nursery has tested positive, so the entire place has been shut down for two weeks. Brilliant. Fuck knows what we're going to do.
Yeah maybe if you have the maths level of a 5 year old. South Korea tests everyone and their fatality rate for that age group is 8-9%, so if you take an obese American who eats Filet o' Fish every day I'd wager it'd be around 20%. He'll get the best bleach injection treatment around though so Trump's personal ticker is probably around 5-7%
There is no special magic treatment that only rich people get for covid. I don't understand this thinking in the general public. We aren't reusing needles and getting the cleaner on a pair of bellows instead of a ventilator for the plebs.
Actually, they probably are in America.
You're looking at a May report into mortality rate.
Here is where you shall find up to date case fatality rates.

I know Mokkers doesn't drive (obviously) but if he did he'd be the sort of wet weekend that gets overtaken by lorries on the motorway. Absolute blanket.
Jesus.
You pissed yourself in an airport from the stress of being in an airport.
Did that really happen, Magic? That's amazing.
He said it did a while back. It's something that should be brought up every time Magic calls someone a wet blanket.
Oh, you mean the graphic based on March 24th figures? A week into their breakout? I was giving you the benefit of the doubt on that one since you were claiming I wasn't using up to date figures but if you want more recent figures: https://www.statista.com/statistics/...n-spain-march/
The level of data illiteracy has reached new heights with this pandemic. Your average Joe is no match for infographics these days.
I got lost in Gatwick I think it was, think it was SvN who attributed this to me pissing myself in fear.
I've had a shocker. Going to be a long road back from here boys so I'd appreciate your support.
Does my original point stand? Quite possibly but who cares at this point.
Fair play for admitting defeat and not doubling down on it.
Well tripling, cos you did kinda double down. Point stands though.
I'm a twit
