Have the Chinese apologised yet for the absolute fucking mess they've caused? 

[Bobby Hundreds]

He said if we don't do this there will be several thousand deaths a day.... so.. next Thursday good! Bonfire night.

[Jairzinho]

Eat out to yelp out.

Sorry seems to be the hardest word. Especially if youre Chinese.

No, I think you'll find it's people who never got the virus who are to blame.

They've just sent this by carrier pigeon.

I think peston said that was the plan earlier today. Johnson certainly suggested we would during the press conference I had that playing in one ear while using my other ear for the match! Haha. Johnson said he still preferred the localised approach, but basically it's on the rise so much there's nowhere left in the country where the NHS won't be fucked by December. 

Imagine the fume if we're first out of lockdown.

 

Cant see it myself.

I think the Chinese have massively understated their deaths. This report on Bloomberg says there were 15 million missing mobile phone users compared to last year. Some of these will simply be people who gave up their phone because they lost their jobs but also dead people don’t renew their subscriptions. There was no way they restricted this to one city.

Some people talk about China like it's some hidden cloud kingdom.  

 

I don't have a lot to say to those people except "Big Mac please", or "that's a shit job mate, do it again".

Astonishing stuff.

Well I'd imagine everyone who's tier 1 now will drop right back to tier 1 too. You'd have thought 4 weeks of this one will get those areas almost as low as it was before eat out to help out. 

[Colonel Bumcunt]

I know as much about China as I'm capable of knowing but it's probably all bullshit or all true, so who knows what I know. 

All I know is that there is no Facebook, Twitter or Instagram there, so it sounds fucking brilliant.

Over 300 deaths reported on a Saturday - that is mid May stuff.

[Scott_M]

My job is in repossessions MI.
 

I assume Payment Holidays will be extended until after Xmas, but if your anything like who I work for (ie the biggest bank in Europe), we weren’t ready to start legal action again on Monday anyway, nowhere near. 
 

Although this decision would have stopped me working late every night over the past 2 weeks, I’m glad it happened, it’s the right decision...

 

... just 2-4 weeks late.

Quite the delay.

Not sure I follow that but I’m guessing you know a lot about China. My own view is that the CCP is probably the most evil and genocidal regime in modern history with probably over 100 million deaths as a result of their policies in the 20th century. For example, looking at the current population demographics there are at least 20 million maybe as many as 50 million missing women probably killed at birth as a result of the CCP’S one child policy that prevailed in the 1970s and 1980s. 
 

It’s a mystery to me why they are not a pariah state but I guess we care more about buying cheap electronics and plastic shit than we do about 20 million murdered baby girls.

50 million infected worldwide, over a million dead, and god knows how many economies tanked. They could at least say "sorry lads". 

 

Unless they're happy weakening their superpower rivals.

It's colds and accidents.

 

As my- fortunately- ex-line manager said, everyone's already had it, and if you test positive after dying in a parachute-not-opening-incident, they'll put you down as a Covid victim. She didn't have statistics to hand about how many people this would have happened to, but it seems far more plausible than your T-cells not protecting you.

Fuck, I've got lost in the bullshit on this thread- where did 'event horizon' come from again?

Sorry, I’ll stop. 
 

(It’s my shite analogy about shouting the one thing you’ve heard about a subject when watching a quiz on telly. To an expert you’d sound ridiculous, but to people with no knowledge you sound almost like you know something. But you absolutely don’t. So shouting ‘T-cells’ or even better ‘why aren’t they mentioning t-cells’ is fucking mental)

'Chinese province' with no Covid cases sees economy grow.

 

Nothing to see here.

The mainland is doing pretty well, too.
