http://www.leparisien.fr/societe/coronavirus-on-a-tellement-de-cas-suspects-qu-on-ne-peut-plus-depister-tout-le-monde-29-02-2020-8269836.php
An emergency doctor at the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital in Paris, where the two coronavirus patients died, Quentin Delannoy explains how the increase in the number of suspected cases in France no longer allows all patients to be tested.
In the last day or two, there are so many suspicious cases that we can't screen everyone.
If a person coughs, with a slight fever and comes back from Lombardy (Italy), they are told to go home?
That's exactly right. If they have a mild form, they are sent home to quarantine without being diagnosed. Obviously, patients are a little reluctant to isolate themselves at home for 14 days when they don't know if they have the coronavirus. Samu is starting to do the same thing. If a patient calls in with a mild fever and cough, they tell them to stay home. It's a concern, but we're dealing with what we have. The hospital is already saturated, the number of beds is not expandable.
So, whatever France reports, times it by 5 to get real figures.
Currently, I honestly couldn't give a crap if Patel shouts and swears at her staff or what the Labour Leadership losers are up to.

Every time he backslides on his agenda it will be said that Priti would not do that. Priti dared to go against the civil service elite whose tune he is dancing to. Boris is weak where Priti is strong.
Not necessarily true, of course, but it will be said nonetheless

As per law, the infected family's home was boarded up in strict quarantine conditions. The neighbours, wracked with sympathy, released them.
Plague spread. A great many died.
The way Leicester are playing Birmingham look value at 14.5
I find that one far more useful, as it gives you an idea of each individual country's timeline of finding cases.
Still, Starmer will do. Good guy.
What was illiberal about any of what I wrote? One could argue that tracking and tracing isn't very libertarian - but I'm a libertarian not an anarchist. I don't believe in no state whatsoever.
Or are you denying that this countries hygiene, handwashing etc that I listed are not better than average across the world? Do we in your eyes have the same nourishment as sub-Saharan Africans? We're a very well off country and should appreciate what we have - billions across the world would love what we can afford to take for granted.
Don't take what we have for granted.

You prepare for the worst, you hope for the best.

hang on.. "Several PBers"? Dont tell me timbo is still with us?! Noo, surely not. Looks like Remain have finally managed to coalesce their vote around one option!
Worst case scenario is not what we expect. Worst case scenario might be that there's a 10% depression next year - but we don't expect that.
Most people here are talking about what they expect really will or may happen, not the far end of the tail extremely unlikely worst case scenario.
He was a good 'keeper and would probably have been in contention for a place had there been a UK team. I guess he has to take some blame for defeat against Romania in 1994, but equally he very nearly took them to Euro 92 on his performances alone.
Hence the news yesterday on calling up retired doctors and nurses. Any brave soul that does come forward to help will be doing their country a great service as these are likely to be individuals at highest risk.
The government should prepare for the worst but that doesn't mean they're expecting the worst. If they were expecting that to really happen it'd be the reasonably expected scenario not the reasonably worst case scenario.
Do you understand the difference?
Lionel Messi has hardly set the world alight with Argentina, I don't think that's a stick to beat him with

But, OK, if all you mean is we should count our material blessings compared to, say, Iran, then that is perfectly fine and not at all a problem. Indeed I wholeheartedly agree.
Partly to save lives of the medical staff but also makes it far more likely to get them to come back to work.
Whilst I am willing to believe containment works up to a point the rate at which they are reducing the number of new cases seems, well, remarkable. Today they are claiming that the whole of China has 202 new cases.
I don't have any alternative data and am very reluctant to give much credence to some unvouched hysteria on the internet but the short answer is no, I don't.
From Beeb:
'A unique virus' - WHO chief
The head of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, says the new coronavirus "is a unique virus with unique features".
"This virus is not influenza. We have never before seen a pathogen that can transfer between individuals [so easily]."
"Containment of Covid-19 must remain the top priority for all countries," he says, adding that governments have "no choice but to act now".
But we will have another generation of heroes we can celebrate. God bless them.

* This is unlikely to end well.
I’m confident I have the transferable skills to do so.
On that basis, the Labour election when Brown won began before the 2005GE, when Blair said he wouldn't serve a full third term.
Christ. Big trouble.
What about a national fast-track program for Under 11s footy teams?
I'm for going!
One other area where we are fortunate is being an island nation without a land border. That means we are more capable than most other nations of tracking people who have recently entered the country, which nations with an unmanned land border aren't able to do.
