Looks like Germany has considerably decreased the R0 (R naught) factor down from 3.
IOW where R0 3 held one infected person to infect a further three, the factor is now below 1 (0.7).
And I believe they are looking to ease restrictions. Well done Germany.

I hope they just don't relax too quickly as their deaths are still rising.

BBC in trouble again in Scotland via BBC's flagship news channel at 10pm for trying to make out the entire NHS was about to run out of PPE when it was only the English NHS that is suffering shortages reporting that there was only 24 to 48hrs left of safety equipment ... those that don't know all 4 countries that make up the UK have there own separate NHS services and it's only the English side that is facing acute shortages ... they might have run out altogether as they were expecting a shipment from Turkey today ... which has been held up/delayed/cancelled no one really knows what's happened apart from the Tory governments total mismanagement of the entire Covid 19 pandemic .... as they have had to rely on endless lies up until now to see them through

Any way of knowing how Scotland is faring separate from the UK? UK numbers don't look good in the sources I rely on.

before someone thinks the above post is me gloating i'm not it's a horrid disease my local care home for the elderly is just around the corner from where i live .... 20 elderly patients have sadly lost there lives i'm from a small town of just under 20,000 and my niece's next door neighbour was taken away by ambulance men last saturday in hazmat suits and the poor lassie was dead by Wedensday leaving 3 kids motherless and and a husband she was in her 30s and no underlying health problems ... my niece is a carer for the council and she is utterly terrified of getting it as she has 2 kids
the curmudgeon rests when faced with beauty, it's the ugliness (of which youtube has plenty) that brings him outThe editing is just sublime in some sections of this. Just beautiful................~

Don't you think Merkel will follow Trump's lead and promote injecting bleach too?
[sarkasmus]I can see it now - Merkel, Macron and others will put out a joint statement to follow America's lead.. [/sarkasmus]
What makes me really crazy: everybody can proof the facts easily - why can´t the Trump supporters manage to see what kind of man this guy is.... I really begin to doubt the "sapiens" in homo sapiens....
You failed at your duty to educate yourself...this is the main problem.
We who love Trump know what we are doing.

I read a funny quote on Trump the other day "it is increasingly impossible to see Trump himself as anything other than a diagnostic agent, a sort of barium meal run through the system to test the strength of the US checks and balances."
Trump supporters are either blind to what he is doing or have strapped themselves in too far as "Trump supporters" and are bound to support and defend him to the death or to idiocracy - whichever comes first.
