The cure

https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/16/early-peek-at-data-on-gilead-coronavirus-drug-suggests-patients-are-responding-to-treatment/

Small sample size admittedly

125 patients, 113 in severe condition, all cured and out the hospital in a week.

Crisis over, back to work

See the pesky Chinese have revised their COVID death tolls by a paltry double!!!! I don’t trust coincidences, and it seems too convenient that they’ve done this immediately after severe financial pressure has been out on the WHO.

Id take anything the media says with a pinch of salt.
Can they really be trusted.
There's always an agenda

The Conservative establishment is pushing to relax the lock down as soon as possible. The reason is given is to "save the economy". The Tories point out, with justification, that a broken economy will also cost lives. But "Foook the economy" is the message from Boris Johnson when Brexit is concerned. With Brexit any economic damage is justified. Any collateral deaths as a result of a broken economy are worth it if brexit is the end result.

If a broken economy is the price of brexit then that that is a price that Tories will pay happily.

If a broken economy is the price of saving tens of thousand of lives then the Tories say that price is too high.

Interesting moral perspective and tells you so much about how Britain has been governed for the past 40 years

The truth is with the Tories, everything has a cost, nothing has a value.

Tories couldn't care less about lives, fortunately the public will not allow or forgive a government who cost people's lives.

Im sick of the same garbage conferences from Boris' cronies. Merkel is honest about the fact this isnt going anywhere until we find a safe and tested vaccine.

British public: Donates nearly £20m to a 99 year old to raise funds for the NHS in a time of need. An organisation which should be supported properly and cherished.

Also British public: Lets vote consistently for a Government which chronically underfunds the NHS.

£20m covers running of the NHS costs for about 3 hours

How can a broken economy save thousands of lives?

A broken economy will cost lives, not save them.
