I guess since they never really brought it under control (~1000 cases a day at it's lowest point), it's not really a second wave. Judging by the timeline though, they literally opened everything in the span of two weeks? Seems a little fast and R probably shot above 1 fairly quickly. I think...

I've not seen anything about Iran on the news recently, but Iran's having a "second wave" if you can call it that. They had a dip in deaths but it's on the rise again. It could still be part of the first wave though as my colleagues in Iran are saying the government's been under-reporting deaths...

Apparently, some people put the nose swab too far up and quite a few come back with blood on them. Fun fact (if you're into that sort of thing), the coronovirus attacks the body through the ACE2 receptor which is abundant in the lungs, the small intestines and...erm...gentlemens parts. The...

Had a gander at the paper. It's a review paper, so they've collected up evidence from 172 other papers and calculated the probability of infection based on all of those studies. There's more than 25000 patients in the sample so actually not a small study compared to others I've seen. I think...

My partner is working at one of the testing labs. Apparently they've had to void a lot of the ones sent back from the home kits because people were pouring the solutions away from the sample tube which was used to preserve the swab. Those would still be included in the tests "done". I wouldn't...

I have family living in China. They had a very strict lockdown which was heavily enforced by the military. They were punished for breaking any of the rules. They also did a lot of tests to find and quarantine those with the virus and screened everyone at airports. Essentially they forcefully...

R is an annoying number because there is more than one, but generally, R is proportional to the average rate of meeting an infected person which in itself is proportional to the average people you come in contact with and the number of infected in the population. We've drastically dropped R due...

It doesn't look like one of the pin prick home tests, but rather one where you send back to them and they presumably do a full serology test which is more accurate. There are others with 100% sensitivity but are more expensive: https://www.yorktest.com/products/covid-19-antibody-test/ Cambridge...

The virus never really got going in those countries as far as I'm aware (Austria had at most 30 deaths per day at it's peak), and they had a strict lockdown fairly early, so they're fairly poor models for whether a second peak will occur. Denmark is doing track and trace and the other two...

It seems molecular biologists are now being asked to help do the lab testing for the virus. My partner was asked last week and is looking to start next week. Hopefully that will increase the number of tests being done. There are also loads of university labs with equipment that are currently...

Do you think we shouldn't have gone into lockdown? I still think lockdown was the safest route given the huge number of unknowns. But I'm seeing a lot of people who are slowly turning against the lockdown. The number of deaths "just isn't very high" apparently. I'm not sure coronovirus should...

I could be wrong, but it looks like they dropped their cap again. I'm only getting 400-500 pips a day and no more. A few days ago, the cap was 1000. Seems they're making it harder and harder to earn on the site.

I joined a little while back and will start following everyone. Here's mine. https://fruitlab.com/player/elantos Mine seems to play a few videos automatically but then stop and you then have to click reload or move onto another video manually. Is that right? Or is there a way to make them all...

Sadly not. You need an nvidea graphics card to install the linux version so I don't think a Raspberry Pi will work. https://intercom.help/fluidstack/en/articles/2923504-what-are-the-technical-requirements They also ban people from using VM now.

With BT myself so might not be related to ISP. Mine's picked up a little again, but nowhere near as much as before. Maybe a network issue on their end.

Not just you, mine's also had a massive slowdown over the last few days! No change to my connection and it is on 24/7.

I've been using this for almost a month now and managed to get 3 payouts of $20. I think the amount somewhat scales with the amount of data you normally use, or at least it appears that way from my graph. I'm quite a heavy user generally. I still feel this is a bit iffy though as I'm not...

I tried betting on a boost earilier today on Unibet for the game tonight...but the maximum stake I was allowed was about 40p. Does this sort of mean they've gubbed me? Not made any bets except for the welcome offer with them about a month ago.

Some linux distributions have chromium pre-installed (opensource version of chrome). Which distribution do you have? It may well be possible to download and use chromium without "installing" it and run it like a portable browser, but it looks fairly complicated...

Looks interesting. Signed up with your referral Topaz :). Here's mine http://monstamoney.com?ref=44
