Re: Coronavirus Non Aviation Thread - April 2020

Re: Novel Coronavirus outbreak

Look at the statistics. There's a pattern in countries that didn't aggressively test from the start (US, UK, Italy, Spain, France) and ones that did (Germany, Singapore, South Korea). Germany has almost 30,000 cases but around 120 deaths. The Netherlands has a fifth of the number of known (emphasis...

Re: Novel Coronavirus outbreak

News from Italy: After two weeks of lockdown, as hoped, we are seeing the first signs of a slowdown: - a 15% decline in new cases (from 6557 to 5560) - a 18% decline in new deaths (from 793 to 651) North of 258,000 tests made, running now around 25000 tests / day https://www.worldometers.info/corona...

Some people just loves to push the r*ce button. Not the way to stay objective. It is a fact that those two crashes happened out of western world.
