And I don't think there's such a thing as having "not that bad" corona. You surely either have it or you don't. I don't understand people having corona with zero symptoms like Idris Elba though.

Arteta cho and idris Elba seem to have been very mild with it

I'm no medical expert but they all tested positive for coronavirus not mild coronavirus. Based on what we're being told you either have covid 19 or you don't. Apparently it's completely symptomless in some people.

just seen a video of hudson odoi training on a bike so looks like he's over it. the range of severity really is baffling

He said when the news came out he was over it, he said he only had it for two days (think he was talking symptoms)

You either have it or not but having it not that bad just means symptoms are milder, or even nothing at all like Idris. Then again going deeper, no diagnostic test is perfect and I’m not sure how sensitive and specific (false positives and false negatives) the corona test is.

Yeah apparently your symptoms can be not that bad, or in the case of some non existent. But you either have covid 19 or you don't.

Apparently there are already two strains of cv out there, the second one in order of discovery apparently being less aggressive than the first.

As for someone without symptoms getting tested and others with symptoms getting sent home without a test, it's probably because there is no actual nailed-on set of criteria and the situation itself is fluid. Elba may have been in close contact with a confirmed case, and whoever had to decide at that point reckoned he had to be tested. My guess anyway.

UEFA has postponed Euro 2020 until the summer of 2021 to allow European leagues more time to complete their seasons amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Ok but you're purely speculating that Idris Elba has a less aggressive strain of it, if such a thing even exists. From what I've read we should consisder the two strains to be the same and that there are no difference in symptoms.

From New Scientist:

"The differences between the two identified strains are tiny. In fact, they can’t really be considered to be separate “strains”, says Jones. And many of the genetic differences won’t affect the production of proteins, and so won’t change the way the virus works, or the symptoms it causes, he says. One is not more deadly than the other".

So Valencia have announced that a third of their squad and staff have coronavirus but they’re all asymptomatic lol

Looks like I'm losing my job, or atleast working on reduced hours. My company just isn't getting any money in. Another recession soon, if it hasn't begun already. Do not know what to do. If anyone knows of any accounts roles or companies hiring let me know

Won't help imo...

Well it won't hinder it will it

Just had some brand new information for my golf club...

It seems like it's staying open... They are operating a one in one out system in the shop absolutely no cash transactions removing all rates from bonkers and all flags are to stay in holes

I like it very sensible... Means the course stays open

Rates from bonkers...FFS

Rakes from bunkers....

Amazing though isn't it...we had years in the years of the cold war where we were threatening mutually assured destruction... We've had the age of the computer where power beyond our dreams is at peoples fingertips where potentially computer viruses threaten to bring the world to a standstill.... And what do we get... not much more than a cold to do the job

Ironic no...

That's terrible news Nick. A virus that kills less people than regular flu, has only killed about 7000 worldwide and that doesn't even show symptoms in some people that test positive is certainly doing a very disproportionate amount of damage.

If this virus had a higher death rate or was fatal to children how much shlt would we be in then?

When this eventually passes we need to see this as a serious wake up call.

Actually think the fatality of this virus is a fraction of 1%. You only have to look at how many celebrities have had this with only 1000 odd cases to know the real cases are far higher
