Reckon Boris is in serious s**t. Unfit - high office notoriously add kgs and reduces the opportunity to exercise (doesn't ride his bike to work any more) and he loves a drink.

Worse part about it is having mr itchy trigger finger Dominic Raab take over.

I would imagine the Uk Govt are not revealing the true state of his health?

British character is very understated aswell.

Victorian Gov continues their dreadfully poor communications. When will they learn? Who is running their comms? Minister says you must not travel to your holiday home - hour later Chief Health Officer says its ok. Can they make any more mistakes today?

So what you are really saying is that he's Winston Churchill incarnate....

Not that much of a pisshead, and as yet nowhere the strategic failure war criminal that old turd was.

This is being managed better than in any other comparable country.

Raab is utterly out of his depth.

Deteriorated in the space of 6-8 hours, after having the virus for 10 days...not a good sign.

Straight to hospital and straight into oxygen treatment. Not on a ventilator at this stage.

Hopefully he doesn't reach that stage.

Another day and another set of Professors appear in the Australian media with an opinion on where it’s all heading.

The trend appears to be either let’s get Professor Grim Reaper out or Professor Unicorns and Rainbows.

It must be winding peoples minds right up.

At least the National Cabinet will release it’s modelling today.

It actually is a big day in news today..so much is to unfold

As with just about everything in life the answer probably lies somewhere in the middle of 2 opposing views.

If he goes onto a ventilator there is about a 3 in 10 chance he gets off it on the right side of the statistics column.

Raab is utterly out of his depth.

Dangerously out of his depth and supporter of the overhaul of British nuke capability... its a nightmare combination.

8:50 and the shark has already been jumped. Impressive.

I've been wondering, what happens with Brexit now?

Will it be delayed further? What implementations have changed with all this?

In totally unrelated news, the ratings for 'Bluey' continue to go through the roof!

Only 13 new cases in QLD.

How many new cases in Syria?

How many new cases in Syria?

19 have been reported in total, which is nowhere near the actual number.

Brexit has happened.

I heard this morning that it was 2 to 1.

That was the appeal court. There were 12 jurors in each of his trials.

han five years. An Australian research team hopes to do it in five weeks.


Australian scientists are fast-tracking the development of a COVID-19 blood test to help predict which patients will need an intensive care bed and who will have only mild symptoms.


The triaging tool could be crucial for frontline doctors trying to determine whether their patients will deteriorate within 24 hours or can be sent home to self-isolate, freeing up finite medical resources, as hospitals prepare for a potential deluge of cases.


The test that detects a biomarker used to identify high risk flu patients has several hurdles to clear before it’s proven effective for COVID-19. A crowdfunding campaign to support the work comes as researchers across the globe rush out promising but unproven diagnostics and treatments.


Lead researcher Associate Professor Benjamin Tang said he was cautiously hopeful their test would be proven effective for coronavirus because it built on a decade of investigating biomarkers in preparation for such a pandemic.


Developing such a test would usually take more than five years. The research team hopes to do it in five weeks, said the researchers from the University of Sydney’s Marie Bashir Institute for Infectious Diseases and Biosecurity, Westmead Institute for Medical Research and Nepean Hospital.


The test looks for a single-gene biomarker IFI27 - used as an early warning sign for patients at high risk of influenza. The High-risk Influenza Screening Test (HIST) was developed by Dr Tang after he saw footage of the 2009 swine flu pandemic of overwhelmed emergency departments clogged with patients.


The IFI27 gene is released into a patient’s bloodstream, mobilising their immune system against the virus.


“When our body is being attacked by the virus, the immune system gets switched on. When it gets switched on, it starts telling all the other immune cells to come and fight the virus. During that process, the immune system gives out a lot of dangerous signals," Professor Tang said.


“That is what we're measuring through this blood test."

It's interesting watching the SJW's high fiving and slapping each others butts over Boris Johnson's predicament, in the knowledge that these very same people completely lose their minds if anyone's dare to challenge the integrity of Greta Thunberg's climate stance.

Petty vicious little hypocrites.

Q: What is the difference between a Nazi and an SJW?
A: The Nazi is sincere.

And we hit godwins law?

 

[Snake_Baker]

And we hit godwins law?

That's some imaginative cherry picking right there.

What the hell, run with it, as the morons will climb on board without giving it a second thought.
