Question: "Good morning Mr. Trudeau. When will the jobless rate be back to normal?"
Answer: "We are very aware of the importance of getting people back to work from coast to coast to coast. That's why we have established a committee to study the issue, whose mandate is to come back with some recommendations on how we should create the right climate for our working people to return to work so that our economy can come roaring back. We will be able to share those recommendations with you very soon."
"Et en francais?"
This is interesting, Vitamin D deficiency might play a role in the severity of COVID 19. If true, this might help explain why it impacts some races more than others.
Vitamin D levels appear to play role in COVID-19 mortality rates: Patients with severe deficiency are twice as likely to experience major complications
Thanks for posting this. A brilliant way of displaying the statistics. - And to think Florence Nightingale came up with this type of graph back in the Crimea war! - Clever Girl! If any idiot still says to me "this is just like seasonal flu" I'll show them this graph.There is a very interesting way of showing the effects of the Covid-19 epidemic on the death rate in England and Wales at COVID-19 - Florence Nightingale Diagram's of UK Deaths - CEBM
Some time ago I started thinking that all of these Covid "news" have been written by robots learning whatever language they use from Google. The above "article" consists of 5 sentences. One of them is this:There is a very interesting way of showing the effects of the Covid-19 epidemic on the death rate in England and Wales at COVID-19 - Florence Nightingale Diagram's of UK Deaths - CEBM
Most of it coming from our press creche who are so keen to have a "scoop" that they are becoming like a Monty Python script "it is a sign". After demanding "quarantine" for all new arrivals to UK to UK they have just realised no one will go into 2 weeks quarantine for a holiday to London and anyone having a weekend in Paris will be a "new arrival" when they come back. They are slowly coming around to the full horror of the situation, London will never be the same. Without a transport system, bars, theatres, cinemas and restaurants what is it?An average of 500+ people a day are dying of covid-19 complications here in the UK that we know of yet there seems to be real pressure gathering to ease restrictions !

That probably is due to reporting, not only are people like coroners not working neither is anyone else. Deaths generally have two dates, the first when the person dies and the second when the cause of death is confirmed by whatever means. Its a bit like no one has ever officially died in the UK houses of parliament and probably never will "officially" because it is a royal palace as well as the centre of government.What I found most interesting was the fact that the weeks just before and just after Christmas always have a significantly lower death toll.
Saw on the BBC Internet News, that the infection rate in Germany has increased since lifting the lock down. Now there's a surprise ............
I guess we'd better get used to lock down for some time to come.
