Just had another pop up. I thought you were going to sort them 7 or so hours ago Bozza ?

Yeah! I got the wrong end of the stick from something I saw on a clip from BBC News on Twitter but then couldn't find it again where they mentioned the 70%, but upon finding this tweet from John Roberts, the line is closer to a 40% divergence on current numbers (although this could still change...

Latest ONS statistics on death (usually delayed by up to three weeks max) are showing that up to as many as 40% have tested positive in the last 28 days but the certificate does not mention Covid as an underlying cause, and this gap is getting wider. These figures used to tie in fairly...

Things are looking good thanks to vaccines and omicron now. The way I look at it, the virus would need three key elements of change/mutation for it to be a worry, and as with the triangle of fire, removing one of those elements would see any mutation not get the upper hand on us. 1st key...

Outside of England, the only stadiums that currently qualify capacity wise are Millennium Stadium, Cardiff (73,931), Celtic Park, Glasgow (60,411), Hampden Park, Glasgow (51,866), Aviva Stadium, Dublin (51,700), Ibrox Stadium, Glasgow (50,817) & Cardiff City Stadium, Cardiff (33,280)

Of course not, he just says who's playing and tells them to do what the hell they like

I would class myself as obese at the minute (luckily don't have diabetes though), yet (apart from drinking at most 2-3 cans of beer per night, and maybe one-two take-aways per month) have a healthy varied diet cooking the majority of my meals from scratch. My issue is exercise, or rather very...

The data is only released quarterly by the ONS but up until the end of December 2021, with Delta (slowly being pushed out at the end by omicron) it was Diabetes. These are the top ten conditions...

That's actually pretty close to how it is with Covid-19. You are at your most infectious in the period immediately leading up to being symptomatic, and then starts to decrease. It's now widely believed in the scientific community that by the time an infected person was requiring hospital care...

Not long into the beginning of the pandemic, we started re-watching all of Star Trek (Enterprise, Original Series, Films, The Next Gen. DS9, Voyager, Discovery & Picard) from the very start in stardate order. Needless to say, nearly two years on we're only into series 5 of DS9 & 3 of Voyager...

From a dementia care home perspective, the one my other half works in had one of the staff she works with, fairly closely, test positive last week. Only one resident has since tested positive and no more of the staff have despite testing daily since, and the resident has been fine regarding...

This old chestnut again? :rolleyes: While the average age is 17 years younger than the UK, you have to remember that any demographic advantage the population might have in terms of battling Covid is outweighed by poor health. The fact is that South Africa has got a much more susceptible...

The key metric to take into account at the moment will be the Daily deaths with COVID-19 on the death certificate by date of death. The unfortunate thing is that is always about 3-4 weeks behind. The last time this figure was even above 200 as 6th March 2021

Italia '90 against Ireland

Gary Lineker once let loose on a football pitch in Italy if I recall correctly.

The UK has seen 17,371 deaths from where there are no other underlying causes involved (to the end of September 2021). https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/deathsfromcovid19withnootherunderlyingcauses?s That mean the remaining 146,512 deaths during...

probably blown when Sky produced this piece: https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12510327/premier-league-top-four-race-for-champions-league-qualification-analysed-by-form-fixtures-and-sky-sports-pundit-alan-smith

From the chances of upsets and David vs Goliath ties: Crystal Palace vs Hartlepool Bournemouth vs Boreham Wood Southampton vs Coventry Chelsea vs Plymouth Kidderminster vs West Ham Nottingham Forest vs Leicester

Better guess than the TV company covering it
