Could they void the PL due to the Coronavirus? | No | Resuming June 17th

Basingstoke.

I've got an appointment on 4 june and my son on 9 June. No problem booking at all.

They've been open during the 'lockdown' for emergency work as well, so the receptionist said.

I'm genuinely interested whats the name of the practice?

No dentist in the UK have been open for Emergency work beyond a few urgent care centres that were set up, and they were referral only for only the most severe and ongoing cases. Eg swollen face and severe pain, and/or breathing problems.

Edit: The British Dental Association and the General Dental Council have both confirmed that Dental practices in England can only re-open from June 8th, if your Dentist is open before that date i would suspect it could be a dodgy unlicensed one. I would suggest you do some research into that mate ;)

You're delusional. We got lucky with this virus. It's not that bad. What would your doom and gloom be like if we actually had a serious virus like the spanish flu or small pox? No disrespect to those that caught this virus, but in relative terms this virus was nothing compared to what we have experienced in the past.

The Spanish flu was quite similar to the flus we have now.

The difference was no immunity and poor hygiene/overcrowding in what passed for hospitals at the time.

This thing could have easily been as bad if no action was taken.

We got lucky with the 358,000 dead, which is likely a good bit lower than then the actual death toll, did we?
 
So how does it work with this new track and trace system?

Based on that if one player gets it the whole team would have to isolate for 14 days or do footballers have special rules?
 
I wouldn't call it a farce, I'd say it's what we have as the only available option when everything is taken into consideration. It's not like positions aren't going to count. Norwich and whoever else in the bottom three at the end will get relegated. If there's European football next season, teams will qualify via the top six etc.

It's the best of a very bad situation but that doesn't make it good. The credibility of the season is in tatters if we are honest and it is just being finished for the sake of it (and for money). The right thing to do was to finish the season now. Just like in other parts of the football league and just like a few hundred miles north in Scotland.

Who knows? I don't even know and I'm a police officer. What do key workers do? Whole teams will be wiped out. Nothings been communicated down.
 
Undetected heart issues don't need a virus to suddenly kill players anyway, we've seen that. So again, the coronavirus isn't really your issue here.
You’re missing my point that sports people are supposedly more at risk, then chuck on top undetected health issues.

but hey, footie is back and we can all look forward to banning the scousers
 
How? :rolleyes:

They've pumped billions into the economy to help furloughed staff and for companies.

A half arsed lockdown that was brought in too late and is being lifted too early. But theres another thread for that.

So your telling me the whole thing is a shambles.

Go figure

Whats the alternative though? The track and trace system is obvisouly the way to go, yes there are some complications but that is inevitable in these unprecedented times. They are just rolling it out now so hopefully it will become more clear in the coming days, although I agree communication by the government throughout the pandemic has been lacking.

My issue is with the communication. As things stand this will decimate essential front line services and that's not to mention there's still just under 400 people dying each day.

Anyway so long as the important things are clear. Like Project Restart and finishing off this farcical end to the season.
 
The virus itself wasn't bad. It was the subsequent panic and overreaction that was the problem.

Try explaining that to the families of the 350k people claimed by covid.

And why are you speaking in the past tense? The coronavirus is still very much with us, and even if it does clear up, there is a good chance of it returning.

I was more interested how it effects this football calendar.

A team is playing 2 games a week, if one person tests positive the whole team should isolate for 14 days. Thats 4 games.

They must be getting special treatment in regards to this.
 
Is there any update on the FA Cup, Europe League and Champions League? If the league can return so can the cup, surely. As for the Europa and Champions League, it will be harder. But they need to be played out too

The whole team and presumably at least one of the other teams they have played. Then the whole thing folds like a house of cards.

Thats what you'd assume, but id be willing to bet once the next round of results come in and there is positives that team wont isolate.

CL and Europa will be back in August

Explain to me the millions of people who have lost their jobs, the uptick in suicides, increased domestic violence cases, missed cancer diagnoses, and the countless amount of children who will starve globally because of broken supply chains.

Explain to me why Sweden is doing so well, and why states in the US who opened up weeks ago aren't burning to the ground and have moved on with their lives.

Why has Norway's health minister said the lockdown was pointless? https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/norway-health-chief-lockdown-was-not-needed-to-tame-covid

Are the very real concerns of these 6 physicians to be ignored? https://archive.is/Sa1KL

This is only a fraction of the information available online. Feel free to do your own research, it's quite revealing. The lockdowns were a mistake.

Totally off topic btw but how many hundreds of thousands of suicides were there due to the lockdown?

Last two weeks Sweden have been top 3 in death/milion people. Doing well?

I'll let other pick away at most of this, but a quick fire rebuke to how "well" Sweden are doing.

6th worst in the world pro rata per million.
Having a mere 10million population naturally helps them stay lower down the total case list, whereas the USA obviously stands out a mile.

You'd probably have to look at excess suicides to make an educated guess. Excess deaths is used quite a lot to get accurate numbers for Covid-related deaths.
 
If you're not willing to even read the abundant evidence showing how destructive and pointless the lockdown was, then there's no point discussing it with you.

Hahaha literally disagreeing with someone who works in the field most directly affected by the virus. Another internet warrior.
 
Sure, and ignore the countless doctors and epidemiologists arguing the exact opposite. But they're opinion isn't valid, right? Since it goes against the doom and gloom narrative.

Which countless doctors? Put up your sources.

The lockdowns clearly did the job as we've seen a steady decrease in death rate's across the globe since they were introduced. The UK has seen a 500 per day decrease over the last 5 weeks alone. Italy, Spain and many other nations are also reporting a significant drop in death rates.

How can you say they were a mistake?
 
If someone is saying there is an uptake in suicides then you better provide some proof for such a glib comment

Sweden is doing worse than the US. Sweden has a population of 10 million people and 4220 deaths. The US has 330 million and 103 000 deaths. The US also have large cities where people live not only close to each other, but on top of each other in skyscrapers. In these very, very densely populated areas corona thrives.

I can tell you that the quotes from the Norwegian minister of health is false. We are also still in lockdown, although some few restrictions are not in use anymore. It is also agreed that we will have restrictions in place at least until the 16th of august. We also, across all political belief, agree that the early lockdown in relation to the virus spreading across Europe, is what saved us from the death tolls as seen in Sweden and other places.

Edit: I just read the whole article in The Spectator now, and that is all made up and taken totally out of context. I would stop reading anything on there, because there for sure is no editorial scrutiny or checking basic facts.

Everton vs Liverpool first weekend. Which if City drop points before could give LFC the Title?

Then they'll wonder about another infection spike on Merseyside.

All about the ££££ and gonna be shite anyway, imo.
