good old capitalism moving into full swing, "privatise the profits and socialise the losses"
[/QUOTE]


Speaking of socialising the losses. It's interesting that the concept of saving is rammed down our throats from birth but corporate Australia has no truck with it apparently. Eddie McGuire revealed the other night that the AFL was exploring with the State Government a line of credit. The AFL is the goose that lays the golden egg year on year and yet even before a crowdless game it wants taxpayer money. Go figure.

Sure. If you want to be illogical about it.

What about cultural, geographical, social and genetic factors?

Do I have to include those?

Noses in the trough.

That's what it is all about.

Hands down, best post in the thread.

Can't I just look for non specific cause relationships in different populations and reach a scientific conclusion?

It is funny that a lot of people are using the Chinese data because a lot of their stats haven’t been updated for those taken into ‘camp isolation’.

It's up to you.

They'd probably help.

Wow.

This is cool.

Anyone can be a medical scientist!!!!

 

[Carlos Herrrnandez]

Wow.

This is cool.

Anyone can be a medical scientist!!!!

And know better than our government as well it seems!

none of that matters, it’s all about the face masks, China’s slowed the spread via face masks....

I'm lost now.

I'm not proclaiming to be anything.

I have to top that now.

Check out how Chinese (& Italian) people live (proximity), then compare it to us, and start there with transmission.

Then add medical care, familial grouping, genetics, blood type and who knows what else.

Pay particular close attention to the punchline:

Italy's death toll overtakes China's.

Italy now at 3,405

That's probably a relief hey.

I dunno, he seems like he's permanently pre-menstrual to me.

 

[Del191229]

Stop posting shit.

When’s the test gunna be an app,that’s what I wanna know

Interesting that you should mention other factors.

 

[Snake_Baker]

And know better than our government as well it seems!

..........but..........what about................TRUMP!

 

[Snake_Baker]

Interesting that you should mention other factors.

Wow..............social interaction...............who ever thought that this would have cultural impacts upon transmission?!!

Can't I just look at the infection & death rates of population X, search out some pretty numbers that somehow correlate with Australia, then declare that I am on to some significant trends?!

 

[Del191229]

Interesting that you should mention other factors.

Is interesting the role that religion is playing.

In South Korea a cult/church was the main vector for spreading it.

Almost like people who place sky fairies above scientific rationalism in these situations are most vulnerable.

..........but..........what about................TRUMP!

All media hysteria whipped up to distract from the failing climate change hoax mate.

That's was your take on it.

I've still got my money on the US storming home to take victory. Got amazing odds on it too. I can't wait to take my winnings to the bank.

 

[Pykie]

Yep.

I'd suggest greater testing giving a truer indication who is infected, rather than totally new cases developing day by day.

The predictive chart posted yesterday is actually based on % infected of the total population rather than exponential % daily increases.

Also, I don't think we've increased testing any more than we were doing 2-3 days ago, we don't have the test kits at the moment to implement what Sth Korea, Hong Kong and Singapore have done with blanket testing of a major % of the workforce that aren't showing symptoms.

Others may be able to doublethink and pretend their very recent statements are forgotten. But there's always a record.

Here's this beauty.
