Asked what her updated estimate for the Infection Fatality Rate is, Professor Gupta says, “I think that the epidemic has largely come and is on its way out in this country so I think it would be definitely less than 1 in 1000 and probably closer to 1 in 10,000.” That would be somewhere between 0.1% and 0.01%.

Since then lots of claims have been made that we are probably very close to herd immunity. But alas unfortunately not it appears. Unfortunately that IFR rate was fairly wide of the mark also. 

Shambles!

I wonder when he last saw Boris, be interesting to see if BJ gets pinged! 

I’m pro opening up on the 19th. 
Think relaxing everything all in one go though is a mistake. 
I wouldn’t want to be making the decisions right now, brown pants time for Boris.
 
 

Because we disagree on many things doesn’t mean there is no balance. 
The problem with covid is that the disruption it causes even when, as you put it, a minuscule amount of people are hospitalised, dying or very ill. That minuscule amount of people actually adds up to a very large and sometimes incomprehensible number of people. Not to mention the effect it has on those around them.

We really need to deal with covid as I don’t believe we are yet at the stage that we can learn to live with it. 
I really don’t have anything massively positive to say about Covid. It’s bad, very very bad. 
 
I agree that using spin or not being honest can cause lots of damage. Some of the false information on vaccines for example has held us back enormously. 
 

Because the vaccine is great at reducing the dangers of COVID, it isn’t a 100% cure. Unfortunately we need a mixture of vaccines and prior infections to get through this, we aren’t yet at the correct mixture, hence rising cases and hospitalisation. 
 
Maybe compare it to a computer game with 10 levels, perhaps we are at level 7 or 8.

Missed a trick there Jimmy, I would have got a lot of pleasure out of pointing out to someone as pedantic as that, it should have been an athlete. ?

No. Try google perhaps. 
 
Sad though isn’t it when 31 year old professional athletes are being hospitalised by Covid. I hope he gets better soon.
