Sept 4th - On this thread WE questioned why the Millennium stadium field hospital was being taken down @ £8 - 9M
To now build a new one at 4 times the cost and half the capacity Some people are making money out of this

It's back and the hospital admissions have trebled in just over a month, due to the time lag the deaths will follow.
This is like the end of Feb, early March, we can ignore it or start making gradual changes now to avoid a massive second wave, people need to start taking things seriously again.

Its a bit of a nonsense to compare single issue / incident rates with overall population levels, they'll always be tiny. On that basis another 400,000 could die of covid tomorrow but would that be OK because 99.95% have still survived. Were the 9/11 attacks on America any less significant because 99.999% of Americans survived. 98% of western Europe survived the Nazi's but we don't let that influence how history will judge them.

truth is its not 400k ... and not a one off event like 9/11.. and what do you measure it against because just chucking a seemingly big figure out there with out perspective { which is whats happened } is wrong.. im far more likely to get a heart attack and die, far more likely to get cancer and die . and now more likely to get either of those and die because of none diagnosis or non treatments than i am from covid.... not sure what the game is tbh... there are people not painting the full picture....people quite prepared to go along...and worse people exaggerating and scaremongering....
why are some so keen to jump on anything positive which those percentages are... yet leave tons of negative half truths fly past without question ?

WHO, health bodies, NHS, professors, Doctors, et al. They're all having the time of their lives leading our Government [and most others] around on a proverbial lead.
There is a huge body of opinion amongst top scientists and epidemiologists that runs completely counter to what we've been told and what we've experienced and how Govts have reacted these past 7 months. Trouble is, those views are being kept in the margins, not aired on mainstream media, and when they do get a sniff of publicity are shouted down..
philrogers wrote:Right at the beginning of this crisis in the UK. There was talk of going for herd immunity. Numbers of deaths ranged up to 500,000. No politician in his or her right mind would ever countenance that sort of death rate. So now we are months into the pandemic with no sign of a let-up and no likely vaccine for many months. Every shade of political opinion in the UK and elsewhere has pretty much all favoured lockdowns or social distancing measures. Are they all wrong? Are all the Chief Scientific Advisers and Chief Medical Officers wrong? Should we cast their advice aside and instead follow the words of Van Morrison?
At seventy years of age I would prefer that my remaining years were spent enjoying travelling, going to the pub and restaurants with my family. I also like the odd cruise to the Med. But if its that or see friends, family and others catch this disease and die......then I know which to me is preferable.
