Face masks and quarantining those coming in from overseas are months too late but we got there. Maybe by 100,000 deaths we will start taking this seriously.
Edit: nice to see nomadking taking up the mantle ...

I'm taking up the mantle for something called TRUTH. Strange concept it appears and one that also appears not to be tolerated.
Labour MP Diane Abbott had to send her son to a private school to keep him away from bad influences.
Quote:
I knew what could happen to my son if he was sent to the wrong school and got in with the wrong crowd.
I realised they were subjected to peer *pressure and when that happens it’s very hard for a mother to save her son.
Once a black boy is lost to the world of gangs it’s very hard to get them back and I was genuinely very fearful of what could happen.

The quote about stabbings was from Trevor Phillips(yes that one).
You can't do simple population comparisons on anything, without actually looking at all the factors.
Nobody seems to be asking why he needed to be restrained and for that length of time. The length of time would have been dictated by HIS actions and the ability of the OTHER officers to get him under control. Would you like to have been potentially spat upon in the current situation or even before? A little old black lady wouldn't have needed to be restrained in such a manner, so race ISN'T a factor, being aggressive and having to be restrained IS, whatever the race. ANYBODY who has to be heavily restrained puts THEMSELVES at risk.

'You & Yours hears from critics of the Government's new "Test and Trac"k system, who say it leaves the door open for scammers. The new scheme will see people who are at risk of contracting Coronavirus being contacted by phone or text. Critics say criminals are able to "spoof" phone and text numbers to look like the official one, and warnings put out by the government to the public do not go far enough.'

So why don't other countries suffer the same problems?

How else are you meant to do it?
