In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
15k new cases in the US today and they're now up to 100k. Feels like they've completely lost control of it.
With respect to the corona crisis, I agree we've done well so far. Although the manner in which the government came to fruition has been somewhat of a joke as well.
I meant in general regarding the future of the country and all the political feuds, but that's not a discussion for this thread luckily
That wasn't the point I was making, just that he was so well he could do this, the article went on to say he was concerned for those he had come into contact with recently, especially his mother.
Yea its turning into a cesspit there.
That has to be the most hilariously anti way of describing the future King of England that I've ever heard
Did they ever have control of it?
Yes, however many scientists say that a self-test often is highly unreliable, often down to 30% while a lab test is much more accurate, 80%+. Also I read that there will be a lot of testing to verify the anti-body tests before they can be released on the market, and that this also will take time. Seems to me like we will not get extensive anti-body testing done before the peak is already here.
Ireland now under the same restrictions as the UK.
Which is why people should stay at home as much as possible and not constantly find ways to decipher new loopholes in the govt stay at home orders, and keep going out arguing that the order is not clear enough.
Have to make an early trip to the shops in the morning. I've literally nothing in the fridge. Its kinda dumb not giving people a day to get their shit together before total lockdown. I'm buying a load of food. Good thing I dont eat much anyway.
They never had control of it as they are lead by the biggest imbecile ever to hold public office.
Republicans were saying this is a democrat plot.
Its going to decimate the public there unfortunately
America will hit insane numbers at this rate. I haven’t been following them much, have they imposed any sort of lockdown or closures?
You can still go out and get stuff it’s not total lockdown
Have you been living in a cave on the moon?
Leo Varadkar just quoted a line from the Terminator for feck sake
What was it?
From allergy ‘red eye’ to respiratory crashing
So, rapid breathing, cough + these eye symptoms means you propably do not have much time to get help and should get to a hospital asap.

Bigger country, and much more testing going on than in any other country. I don't think it is worse than in big European countries.
There is no fate, just what we make for ourselves.
I swear theyre just google searching inspirational quotes now.
Hasta la Vista, baby.
Can you post a summary, it's unavailable to most European countries.
Edit: nevermind, just viewed it through a cache via google. cheers
Absolutely certain.
I know a woman who was in China for work in early Jan, came home and felt ill, but didn't think too much about it.
But now, a couple of months on, and awareness being sky high, now realises she probably had it!
Phased Plasma Rifle, 40 watt range.
Haha! That’s very dramatic
When will they announce the list of essential businesses?
But if it's serious enough to need a lockdown, they're not going to encourage everyone to storm to the shops all in one go are they? That'd ensure extra spreading.
Listen. Understand. That virus is out there. It can't be reasoned with, it can't be bargained with. It doesn't feel pity of remorse or fear and it absolutely will not stop. Ever. Until you are dead.
Good choice of quote. Hopefully people stay in now.
The next few months are going to be completely defined by what is revealed when anti-body tests become widely available
Ireland now I’m pretty much lockdown. Correct decision.
Everyone hanging waiting to see if an off licence is open
I cut out the most informative parts. (There were no "real pictures" of eyes like this.) :
Nurse Chelsey Earnest told CNN that as she worked with coronavirus patients at the Life Care Center in Kirkland, Wash., she began to notice that the sickest ones had a single thing in common.
“It’s something that I witnessed in all of them,” she told CNN. “They have, like ... allergy eyes. The white part of the eye is not red. It’s more like they have red eye shadow on the outside of their eyes.”
Rapid breathing and a cough were the other two hallmarks, she said.
“Several reports suggest the virus can cause conjunctivitis and possibly be transmitted by aerosol contact with conjunctiva,” the American academy of Ophtalmology said Sunday in a note to its members.
“We’ve had patients that just had the red eyes as the only symptom that we saw and go to the hospital and pass away,” she said. “I’ve even had the disaster medical control physician say, ‘Do they have the red eyes?’ And I will say yes. And he’ll say, ‘I’ll find you a bed.’ It’s just something about this, the way that it affects these patients.”
"Mr Varadkar says he is reluctant to use the term 'lockdown' to describe the measures.
He says they are "very restrictive" measures, and there is not much more beyond this they could do.
On the 2km radius - beyond which people cannot travel from their homes - Mr Varadkar says there will be an element of people having to comply with it, but gardaí will be available to police it"
Just say you don't have a supermarket within 2km of your house to get food?

Good thing I can't view it. What you've written alone nearly sent me running to the hospital.
I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle.
Cheers pal
Yeah they probably are overworked, and it must be hard to remember to always keep a 2m distance from people over an 8+ hour shift.
From the little i've experienced it the staff in most places seem to be really professional about it all. The only problems i have seen is some customers who can't or won't get on board with it. On monday before i finished work i was in a garage with about 12-15 people all queuing 2m apart right to the front door. Then in waltzes one guy undeterred by everyone else complying with the social distancing, walks past everyone and butts in front of a lady about to be served and throws £40 on the counter and says diesel pump 6.
Deary me. What a prick indeed.
