Oslo, Norway; today :
Unbelievable.
Is that really from today?
Saw a picture from Torgalmenningen in Bergen about two weeks ago, around 3pm, and it was totally empty.
People in Bergen are smarter than in Oslo, which most of us knew, but now we got a proof
Did China donate 1,000 ventilators to New York? I saw in the news.
Yep. Founder of Alibaba and a couple others
I don't know, let me ask China.
More important i think is that 74 fewer people are today in intensive care than yesterday in Italy. First day since the outbreak its going down, and if its continue it gives the hospital some much needed breathing room.
Well, it's not enforced through police or military sevices etc. but it was not supposed to be like this. Like Sweden, people was to adhere to the guidelines and rules. Obviously not working in Oslo.
Today, yes, from Vg.no.Is that really from today?

No wonder the epicenter is in the south, most people there, and yeah, obviously a lot more stupid folks too
First they clap for the nurses some weeks ago and now this. Lets have another round, please!
A good friend of mine has made a song about staying at home. He is a famous musician in his own country. Am I allowed to put a link here? Mods please let me know.

As a Noggie living in Sweden i am very glad you guys seem to have some sort of control so far at least.
I would very much like to drive home to Oslo in the summer to visit my parentes.

Sounds weird to pronounce too, to be fair.
Guardian and some others are saying Chinese government now.
France update:
- 4267 new cases.
- 441 new deaths.
- 7560 total deaths; 5532 in hospitals, 2028 in nursing homes and the rest from other structures.
Edit: I forgot an important stat, 176 new patients require intensive care, that figure is important because it is by far the lowest addition since March 20th.

I can see the end of an EU after this. It's everyone for themselves at the minute. Well not everyone but still the cracks are showing.
Why does the worldometer site have the daily deaths at 1053?
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
Listened to this Doctor last night. Very well spoken. Seems very genuine and compassionate.
Yeh, seems to me the stats in the UK are 10% death rate if you end up in hospital with this.
Because until this week the stat on Worldometer only concerned deaths of hospitalized patients but now that France is reporting deaths outside of hospitals that have occured since late February, Worldometer thought that it was a good idea to put deaths from the last 24 hours and old deaths together, it's a bit misleading and they should have simply changed the total.
From next week you should have actual, reliable daily deaths for France wherever they happened.
I hope they get it under control by then mate. If you have the possibility to go by car that would be a lot better than risking buses like in that article you posted. Maybe the 14 days quarantine thing will be in place in June/July also though. Too early to tell propably.
Jupp, i always drive when going to Oslo. 5 hours from Stockholm with a stop so not worth flying imo.
I would gladly stay 14 days in quarantine before i could visit them, then 14 days when back in Sweden, if that ment i could spend some time with them. And actually hug my mother.
Is that also the reason they've weirdly added 23k cases to France's total yesterday too?
Either terrible or totally appropriate choice of words at the end there.
Thanks for the explanation.
So slightly confusing reporting apart, and the fact that France have had more overall deaths than the Uk, they could actually be in better shape atm, with daily totals maybe plateauing off around the 500 mark.
Terrible probably. Just a straight translation from what they say where i live.
Anyway, They deserve every little positive news there is.
Small correction, it's 5532 hospital deaths.
Yup, same reason.
That's true to some extent, there were more deaths in March than initially reported, which was predictable, but even if you add 50 daily deaths in March you are still below 500 daily deaths with the last three days being a peak without massive jump.
Thanks, I repeated the mistake from a paper even though I knew that it was a mistake.
Testing capacity has reached 10000 a day in Belgium as of today. Does anyone have numbers for that in other countries?
Scary stuff. I'm glad I watched it though. He spoke very well and you could really feel the sense of dread he currently has.
Grim, grim, grim. Poor kid.
Matt lucas doesn't even have to say a word. His facial expressions just have me laughing.
I feel a little bit more hopeful with the Italian figures. Worldometer says this about today's numbers:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/italy/
That sounds good. Hopefully it will get even better.
Wiki has a page but I don't know how reliable it is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_testing
I know that the US is doing over 100k tests per day, while Germany has reached 80k/day.
Some much-needed light-hearted stuff, resulting from false rumours of a packed Brighton Beach:

I saw a tweet from Folkestone council saying that they have had to give out many warnings today as the seafront was very busy. A family from Bromley (about 60 miles away from Folkestone) had even travelled there.

That's encouraging, hopefully the numbers will decrease quickly. It'll give every other European country a boost when Italy can finally ease it's lockdown restrictions.
