    • UK: 1,559 COVID-19 patients are currently being treated in intensive care. Source: Intensive Care National Audit & Research Centre (ICNARC) [pdf]
    Intensive Care does not sound very promising.

      Well I'm glad that English politicians are behaving better than Scottish.

      Dr Calderwood ( the Scottish version of Matt Hancock ) seriously flouted her own rules and regulations by going to her holiday home not once but twice on consecutive weekends.

      She should be sacked immediately and recieve a hefty fine, yet, the Sturgeon witch is sticking up for her.

        Quote from a Dr. in Manchester fighting the virus:

        He urged people to “please, please, please stay indoors” after he lost one of his patients on Friday.

        “I lost one of my patients yesterday. She was a lovely lady and she had been staying in at all times. She went once to the supermarket for grocery shopping and came back with the virus and unfortunately we lost her. She worked from home she hadn’t stepped outside the house and she lived on her own. The one visit to the supermarket might have caused it.”

        He also said that of those who get put on a ventilator - only 14% survive - be vigilent everyone - even when you are just popping down to the shops.

          One of the good things of constant updates on cv19 is that it has drowned out both the labour leadership contest and vote and that weird noise that always comes from sturgeon!

              It's mainly transmitted on water droplets when people breathe out, so not necessarily coughing. Hence why we must keep our distance. By the way, covid 19 does not cause sneezing, just coughing.

                Sorry @JWK , No he hasn't. All the Royal Family have moved from London. Prince Charles has moved to his residence, Burkhall and stayed there. He hasn't gone for two consecutive weekend breaks

                  Nope, he drove up to Balmoral after us plebs were told not to visit our second homes. He caught the Coronavirus I thought everyone knew that, so he had to stay in Scotland.

                    Where is Burkhall? It does sound an appropriate name for one of his mansions :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                      So did the Queen go to her holiday home as well then ?

                      Burkhall is his own private house. He hasn't any property in London, only state apartments.

                        Did you miss the news that prince Charles is at Balmoral with the virus @KFF ?

                        Think everyone knows where the queen is right now.

                          Burkhall is his own private house at the edge of the Balmoral Estare. He is not as I reckon you think at Balmoral Castle which is one of the queens homes.

                          Did you miss the news that he hasn't got the virus, He's now over it ?
