    We never were, was just social media idiots who got a lot of traction made people think we were.

    The only positive that may come out of 36 (RIP) is that people might cop the **** on now and stay at home for Easter and not be going out for the day or driving to holiday homes etc.

    36 is our highest in a single day but not a massive jump in positive tests is encouraging.
    Maybe people will wise up and stay away from the holiday home this weekend, pretty sobering number.

    Why only 22 deaths in ICU? Would most deaths not be expected to pass through ICU?

    That's the effect of nursing home spread.

    The number of cases means less and less the more we gave found out about the testing numbers, to be honest. In terms of a gauge of flattening the curve anyway

    It's elderly people from care homes.
    You do realize dozen of people in nursing homes die everyday in every country of the world regardless of any virus.

    Sweden remains an enigma. Limited restrictions and virus under as much control as most countries with tight lockdown. Looks like they got it right.
    They have over four times the death rate of Norway.

    Chief Scientific Officer in the UK saying it's possible the country is seeing the beginning of change in regards to the curve flattening.

    It's absolute guff like that that pisses me off.. They're making a mess of it and are skewing numbers.

    Remember 1-2 week lag in transmission and a further 1-2 week lag in death.

    So we should only see the reduction in death rate from around 3-4 weeks following our 'lockdown' measures. Hopefully we will be seeing the peak in the next 5-7 days.

    Indeed no, let that figure be a wake up to anyone who thinks we've beaten this or that we can return to some sort of normality in the next few weeks.
