    Ivan, that is the problem, not the Virus but the effect it has on some people.
    If they require hospitalisation there in is the problem, not enough beds.

    The number that recover from the Virus is very high, many only have slight effect similar in many cases to the Flu.
    But those with pre existing medical conditions are vunerable.

    Many UK cities have a condensed community making the spread of the Virus very easy.

    But on a more positive note, here in Oz it was announced last week that our serum lab will begin to manufacture the Oxford Vaccine next month.
    It is expected that over 1.5 million health care workers and elderly vunerable citizens will be vaccinated by March.

    So there is no reason why those in UK should not be treated in a similar manner.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Life is too short to blend in.

    Speaking to my daughter this morning who works from London that the whole of the West End was lit up last night and crowds of shoppers thronged the area 'til late. Mirror that with other cities in the UK and still a couple of days to go before restrictions kick in, and that will make a mockery of Boris's one month's shutdown. What's so important that cannot wait 28 days? Inevitably figures and fatalities are going to increase for much longer beyond December 2nd. Must get my handcart serviced.

    I think the reason there are Not enough beds now in hospitals is....,,,,

    A few tears ago in Bolton and in many towns we had Isolation Hospitals. We had Three here for contagious diseases. Usually TB. as TB was eliminated the Hospitals were demolished, There had been talks of rebuilding as the Immigrants from the Middle East were flooding in, the TB disease started up again.
    Then Corona has started first , so all the Infected Patients are all in the same hospitals as normal Patients. Not only taking up more Beds but also infecting more Staff and other People.

    A pigeon is for Christmas not for life if all the shops are shut.
