70% what? I missed that. 70% are asymptomatic?Originally Posted by Shindig
70% what? I missed that. 70% are asymptomatic?
According to an ONS study, yes. To be more specific, they said 70%-80%.
That blows only 7-8% of people having had it out of the water then, surely?
Y'see, that's where it gets fun. You might remember a couple of nights back the WHO concluded asymptomatic people aren't thought to be as infectious. Then they retracted that statement 3 hours later.
Economy shrank by 20+%. OYFT.
Had been over 3 months since I'd experienced the intersection between female interaction and oral cavity intrusion and let me tell you, it did not disappoint today
I hope he was gentle.
Can you still get a good deal on those toothbrushes?
You're acting like a right little bitch about this.
Especially for a blow-in.
Blow In?
Hes very defensive of Vietnam when hes not Vietnamese.
Ah. He's a Mert.
Cracking banter.
Meanwhile, in Beijing...
It’s hardly banter. It’s interestingly odd is all, we didn’t mean to hurt you.
It's not that odd. I've lived here for almost 15 years, so yeah, of course i'm probably gonna mention it when we've been so successful in fighting corona (whilst being largely ignored). That's it, really. I'll hold back the tears (just).
They're completely right. You referred to Vietnam as 'we' the other day and I had to remind myself you're from Crewe.
Yup. Lived here for most of my adult life, so sometimes refer to Vietnam as 'we'. I really don't see what the issue is here.
No issue. You're just being a tart and it's funny.
You're getting it from three heavyweights here JA, I'd heed their guidance.
You're on thin ice too, Captain Iran.
I’m just shocked that Taz seems to have constructed a sentence in plain English.
In other news, Brazil has managed to overtake the UK in absolute numbers. Who would have thought that Bolsonaro and Trump would be 1 and 2...
Seeing those crosses knocked down was something else. "Stop this silly leftist nonsense." Brazil's fucked.
Finally lost patience and cut my own hair today, using kitchen scissors and a beard trimmer. Bodged up the back a bit (as you would, not being able to see or feel anything) but rescued it to maybe a 3/10, and from the front I look fine.
Fucking hell, though, just open the fucking salons.
I mean, really don't. It'll spread like wildfire.
Just shave it all off, there's a pandemic and other real talk happening. Nobody cares about your hair.
I really don't think it will. If it was going to spread like wildfire it would already be doing so from all the 'illegal' stuff people are doing every day.
Hairdressers and barbers are one of the most unessential things in the world. The fact that it’s a manky procedure means they should all be locked up until everyone is vaccinated.
I'm all for opening (some) stuff up, but the level of complacency sweeping the nation right now (presumably because they've not been personally touched by this - neither have I, I should add) is moronic.
You can't be that far off the horseshoe stage, and from what I remember you're not completely unable to grow any sort of beard, so why not take this opportunity to move/resign yourself to the tried-and-tested slaphead/beard combination?
Especially for Mr Burns up there.
I've had a (longish stubble) beard for a wihle for that reason, but I don't have a head you can shave.
Can you not buzz it right down like William Hague?
The rise begins. Who could possibly have seen that coming?
This. I'm approaching Christopher Walken levels.
The sides need some attention before it gets a bit Dirty Harry but I might keep it a bit longer.
If I had a full head I'd keep going forever, but as a balding man you can't have a mane at the back and sides.
The Hulk Hogan.
What now you little parasite? Elaborate.
We are planning a socially distanced, safe-as-can-be, soccer “kick-around” - NOT A GAME - to allow folks to get outside and pass the ball around. We will be following the current MLS rules for socially safe soccer, which use cones to establish personal zones that are separated by 6’ corridors. Some of their graphics are pasted below, but we might also find a way to make our own safe structures, like a live Fooseball table!
As if I am going to bother with that.
How did your video call silence go?
A live Fooseball table!
Sounds wonderful.
Didn't attend that shitshow, obviously.

I'm absolutely delighted to be in Manchester.
I’m sure it’s delighted to have royalty back too.
