The Great Cornholio 903 Posted September 7, 2020 Nearly 3,000 new cases of the 'rona recorded yesterday, the biggest number of cases since May. People mostly affected are young adults, but it only takes one of them to have been on the train/bus/public toilet for the numbers to start to heavily increase...

Genfærd 452 Posted September 7, 2020 Isn't it a bit too early to call it a 2nd wave? Yes, cases a rising again, but deaths aren't. Maybe a tad too early to call for a 2nd wave since we're not close enough to the numbers from the initial wave. hey, I'm no expert, but I just won't call it a 2nd wave. Not yet at least. And even if we were in the 2nd wave, why not continue in the original Covid-19 threads. Just my 2 cents. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will take time to spread and start killing. I think the second wave would prove a big enough issue for a second thread. Obviously, we are all out of lockdown for the time being - so this thread serves a purpose for news specifically regarding second wave news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You said it yourself, mostly young adults so not too much danger of the deaths starting to rise dramatically. Agree with others, no need for another thread about the same thing.

Youth in Asia 1,088 Posted September 7, 2020 Where I live we are just starting a second wave (despite the first one never really subsiding), so I am in favour of this thread as long as it can be used for other countries too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Restrictions, minor lockdowns in the capital and a lot of worry in a briefing happening just now in Denmark. 50% increase in new cases and birthdays, pirate parties (not the arrrrr' mayte and booty but parties that are being held against the law) and young adults get the blame + they put the blame on outbreaks in ghetto areas with a lot of immigrants. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,081 Posted September 7, 2020 Does this newbie Kenny have to start a new thread for existing threads every single day? Tell me again when the 'first wave' concluded? DL really gone downhill with the recent 9-12 months of membership additions and the general takeover. Main reason I post 1/10 of what I was before. Threads like this and zero administration of this site by 3-headed cuntos in charge. I pretty much just check in every couple days, see who kicked the bucket is all.

TQR 14,480 Posted September 8, 2020 So it’s more young people being affected this time round, and Matt ‘cock is all over the papers lecturing young people about not “killing their gran” when in reality he’s overseen the deaths of thousands of fucking grans in care homes by discharging untested patients into them. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tomorrow's new Kenny thread: "Anticipating the third Covid wave'. SC There is news regarding the second wave. It may happen, it may not. As YIA mentioned earlier, there IS a second wave where he lives, plus the second wave in the UK is sounding more and more likely... For now, this thread exists for speculation, news articles regarding second wave etc... The first wave ended as soon as we were released from quarantine in June/July, right now we are easing back into normal life for the sake of the economy. Also when was the last time I started an already existing thread? Dont worry, I'll be sure that the third wave thread is up on the site as soon as it happens KM 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Great Cornholio 903 Posted September 8, 2020 Despite the high rises in COVID cases indicating a second wave, London has had the lowest amount of COVID deaths. Maybe wave 2 will just be for young people, where 18-21 y/os just get ill but very few die... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely the young will want to kill off their grandparents asap in order to get a bit of the inheritance and get a foot on the property ladder or whatever. Kill your grannies and grandads off before they start blowing it all on healthcare etc. Encourage them to go on world cruises instead. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,368 Posted September 8, 2020 Let's not forget how youngers were moaning about old people voting for Brexit.The message should be don't see Granny if you rent following all the rules.To make young healthy people abide by all the rules realistically is never going to happen.Even some older people I know do not want to social distance at all.
