UK Government web site - Covid 19 is no longer an H.C.I.D.

by The Fall Guy in

"as of 19 march 2020, covid-19 is no longer considered to be a high consequence infectious diseases (hcid) in the uk.. now that more is known about covid-19, the public health bodies in the uk have reviewed the most up to date information about covid-19 against the uk hcid criteria.

the advisory committee on dangerous pathogens (acdp) is also of the opinion that covid-19 should no longer be classified as an hcid.

in the UK there have been just over 1800 deaths from covid19, to date. of these--all but 28 had underlying medical conditions.

there is a ratio of deaths to positive tests, but as there are comparatively few tests done, that figure looks frighteningly high.

the bigger picture is those 1800 deaths as a percentage of the UK population, which is 67 million. so the death rate is 0.0028% of the population. obviously this will increase over time.

by comparison, the median death rate from all causes here is .95%, or 9.5 in a thousand.. an average of 12,240 a week.

ive read that, as so many of the population are forced to stay at home, deaths caused by industrial and road traffic accidents etc will decrease, possibly to a higher number than those lost to covid.

there is likely to be a population increase in 9 months time.

Legal Concerns About "Zoom" Meetings!

this whole "zoom" thing has got me wondering whether some of it is legal or not.

if a person has to dress up for a zoom meeting the way the watchtower dictates, doesn't this really go "beyond" cult?.

even the cults who committed mass suicide were able to dress the way they wanted for their meetings.

i wonder, when this nightmare is over, how many dubs wont go to meetings anymore?

and i suppose the watchtower boys are already working up a script about all those running ahead of jehovahs chariot by saying this was start of the tribulations.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

by Simon in

this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

the stats for the UK to date are:

population..67 million

covid deaths..1400

thats .002%.

the figures for new york ( city ? or state ? ) paint a positive picture:

965 deaths out of a KNOWN 59648 cases. the deaths figure is accurate--the tested positive cases means a wild guess at the true total of positives--which would reduce the percentage a lot more.

but the percentage not shown is the deaths out of the total population.

new york city--a population of 18 million+. so approx point 005% of its population have died from corvid 19...to date.

what are the same statistics for gun crime deaths ?

YouTube BANNED this video yesterday!

by The Fall Guy in

it lasts for 45 minutes, but the first 11 minutes are more than enough to see that something is not quite right regarding the media's information about covid 19. the video has english subtitles.

for many countries--but specifically the UK, the total deaths through covid19 will make hardly any difference to the median annual death figures. Why? because those old folks would have died in the year anyway.

to put it all in perspective, the median death rate for the UK is 9.5 per thousand per year...or .95%, which is about 600,000 deaths per annum. so far this year--covid19 has taken about 1200 lives, or about .2% of the average total deaths.

Simonan hour agoJWs are not a cult as most reasonable people interpret the word. Ex-JWs who shout "cult" too much undermine valid criticisms that they could be making.
They are a conservative christian sect. They have some high-control practices. But they are not a cult.

Simon..do you think someone has hacked your account ?
