The Golfing tips Padraig Harrington has been putting up on Twitter the last few days are brilliant.

You'd genuinely have had to pay thousands of € to get them normally from someone like him.

Depends on how many weekends you think we'll be stuck for.

I'm starting at 1990.

I've said it before elsewhere, but he does an episode of Jarlath Reagan's "The Irishman Abroad"'s podcast where at one stage he just talks tips on his own uninteruppted for a solid 12-15mins, is just in complete and utter flow mode. Same there, you'd have paid big money for it.

The one with the drill of him just throwing a tennis ball and the thought process behind it showed me something I was doing wrong. Played a lot better last 2 days after seeing this and changing a little thing so could be a gamechanger.

Are many of ye golfers playing much over the past week?

[Guest]

Well the effect of any measures we took last week will only begin to kick in over the next few days. If we can keep it in the low 20s and gradually get it to fall that's better than what most countries are managing.

Yet is the big word. I get what you are saying but it was a little tongue in cheek TBF.

I guess going by this we should see the increase rate slow down around the end of the month?

Real-time evidence of flattening the curve. Lodi had the first Covid-19 case in Italy, and implemented a shutdown on Feb 23. Bergamo waited until March 8.



Pulled this off the net without much research, so it could be a load of bull BTW.

Maybe but I think when our dailys start to be populated vs Italy and Korea especially when interventions (schools, pub closures and testing scale up) come into play as per lead time we'll get a clearer picture of where we'll land on this

It reminds me of that old 'if you could go back in time and murder x before y, would you do it'. If I actually thought say assinating Boris 2 weeks ago would have changed the UKs poilicy, I think it would have been wotih giving it a go. Tempted to quote Spock

[ComradeCollie]

From the Irish Times. Yep.

Did they mention foot fucking? (asking for a friend)

[ComradeCollie]

Was talking to the younger brother who worked as a bar man in Manhattan, as he was closing up shop on Thursday. He suspects himself and the rest of their staff had a mild dose of it about 5 weeks ago. Mostly the coughing symptom, and of course NYers dont take a day off for minor stuff like that. Reckons he'd serve about 200 customers a day, and even taking into account some duplication, it's a lot of people.

I missed that one. As embarassing as it is losing the run of oneself on an online forum, doing it in parliament is special.

FFS they closed Woodies ?

The dad was buzzing getting a new mower on day 3 and is totally plugged into painting the decking the last few days. Both parents on day 8.

Totally behind getting all the window sills painted and having a bit of salad late summer.

It's a valid point made awfully.

Limited options for a huge demographic in lock down. Gardening & DIY or become a obese alcoholic.

Slimy Simon's expression is gold, might drop the slimy for that, he's putting in a fair shift in fairness to him.

[Mellor]

Absolutely. There’s a benefit in having DIY shops open, home deliveries of supplies a là Gab. Keep people occupied, keep people in a low density jobs employed, keep money moving.

But what we actually got was a man losing the run of himself waffling about window sill salad.

Reporter: "Is the drug hydroxychloroquine effective at preventing coronavirus?"

John Fauci(Head of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases): "The answer is no"

Trump: "We ought to give it a try. I think we disagree a little bit, I feel good about it. That’s all it is, just a feeling, you know, smart guy. I feel good about it.”


When a reporter asked Trump on Friday whether he was selling Americans on an overly optimistic message regarding forthcoming coronavirus treatments,

Trump told him: “I say you’re a terrible reporter.”

Germany's deaths to cases figure is very low compared to Spain / France. Is it that they are testing more and intervening earlier?

Latest figures on Worldometer say they have 2 critical cases from 19600 active cases. Spain figures 939 critical from 18890.

I believe someone mentioned that deaths were being reclassified when some underlying conditions existed but I haven't seen anything about that.

It's similar to SK, it's volume of testing, they're just testing more mild and asymptomatic people.
They're getting through 160k tests a week which blows SK 10-15k a day out of the water.
Also 80% of their tests have been conducted on those under 60 so far lower risk.

They'll be interesting to watch because they're the 3rd oldest population in the world so it'll give an idea of how much this virus has actually spread throughout Italy & Spain.

I believe someone mentioned that deaths were being reclassified when some underlying conditions existed but I haven't seen anything about that.

I heard that also, back when they had zero deaths but 1000 cases. Some with lung disease, who contracts the virus and dies isn’t counted. Seems insane theory but their numbers don’t align with anywhere else. Could be something in it.

Trump is obviously getting carried away based on 3rd and 4th hand information from the likes of Elon Musk. Fauci describes the result as anecdotal rather than a hard no, but the study seems legit enough and extremely promising:

N=36. By Day 6, 14/20 treated patients were completely free of infection. Control patients 3/16. Larger study is going to happen very fast. Next study will combine azithromycin, a treatment for Lupus.

Yeah I read it wasn't a hard no, I just thought the way they presented the exchange was funny.

Fauci said it's not a hard no, I got the above from here and he says as much later on, just need more data and not to hang your hat on it: https://www.statnews.com/2020/03/20/...ust-a-feeling/

I think a lot of the US Science community are generally pissed off with Trump so there is some very evident anti-Trump bias.
Even if the drugs do show work, he'll be viewed as nothing more than lucky.
