I read Michael Caines Auto biography - Elephant to Hollywood....BTW excellent book  - he did one of these war films in some God forsaken country and the whole cast and crew went down with Dysentery....except him and his theory was.... he was swigging a bottle of Vodka a day at the time as he was a bit of a raging alcoholic and his theory was that the voddy made his body a wasteland for bacteria and killed pretty much anything that came near it.....got me thinking

bit different with that as that is gut bacteria where as covid is now there finding anywhere in the body  so if drink enough Alcohol to deal with covid you'd be dead also from it

Admitadly its just from the news outlets but going by what they class as healthy, fit and no underlying health issues I have my reservations. I doubt the NHS is bothering with a proper autopsy to see if there was any real underlying health issues with these 'healthy and fit' people. The stats are still very clear on the matter. The chances of someone under 40 dying from Covid-19 is quite remote, this diminishes the younger the person gets. Of course there will always be the few exceptions that grab the headlines, thats why the percentages for the under 40's is not 0.00%. We seriously have to weigh up whats happening to the economy now, and in the future and the deaths that a huge crash will cause and the fact that of we allow those who are not at a statistically high risk to have the option of going back to work. If they dont want to take the risk then they need to follow the guidelines for over 60 year olds. Again, its a risk Im quite willing to take. 

there is a lot more new research coming through it's turning many of this stuff on it's head! So hopefully soon they will know more about it and how/what/why it effects some and not others and in the way it does as even finding eyes stay infectious for a long time.

an interesting thing nowadays is preprint servers -scientific research, not all of it, but certain areas, people are publishing stuff before it has been reviewed. The preprints are bound to contain many errors, but the scale of what is being done and instantly transmitted globally is amazing - the server below currently has over 2000 articles on Covid-19. So anyone working on something similar can take a trawl through the server and see what other people are coming up with. Many of the new developments in the news the journalists are looking through these servers for a scoop
