We have 14 yes, one four, in a population of well over a half million. Let me weep. How many people died on the roads? But no there are no increase in speed controls (the biggest killer). We would save more people by shutting down the roads.
Ehm. Speed Limits in the Netherlands have just been decreased two days ago
The Netherlands has introduced one of the strictest speed limits in the world. Beginning on Monday, a speed limit of 100 kph (62 mph) applies on highways across the country during the day. Between 7:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., drivers can increase their speed up to 130 kph on designated sections of the road. Cyprus and Norway are the only other European nations to impose similarly low speed limits.

https://www.dw.com/en/netherlands-reluc ... a-52796095
The speed reduction has nothing to do with safety. It is purely for the environment. For safety the speed should be reduced to 70 kph.

Still why should we get our knickers in a twist over such low numbers? Which certain people take as gospel. Governments are notorious for massaging figures to suit their requirements. The UK unemployment figures are a good example. The way data is collected is never the same either and what the WHO is saying should really be questioned as it is the monkey of the American organ grinder.

Not on our roads. The highest density of road use is when the speed is 70 kph which why we have matrix boards everywhere.

There needs to be a full, international investigation of #China Communist Party’s actions that helped turn #coronavirus #COVID19 into a global pandemic – and #China needs to be prepared to pay other countries for the havoc the CCP has unleashed https://t.co/u1Uo0H0PTj

— Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) March 18, 2020
Wait to the poorer countries that owe loans to China jump on the corona virus reparations bandwagon, or have businesses where China owns an equity stake. Once the smell of possible free money hits :ab:

And of course this could be the tipping point to free the poor Chinese people from totalitarian dictatorship. Possibly charge the CCP leadership with crimes against humanity over the cover up.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

This morning's press conference had some changes noted. Maybe they are significant, but I don't know why.

Seal removed from the front of the podium, and one of the flags has been removed. (to the left of the speaker, there was a flag (UN?) now there isn't)

I don't know enough about either to say what it means. If anything.

We have been 'silly' around death in a number of ways. Anything practical, dealing with meat that can spoil, ends up bringing us face to face with our horror.

I would say all the religious scholars should convene, in a secret hearing, until they reach consenus. Very secret. Locked room, maybe underground.
