The funny things is that close to half of the total screenings have been done in Limpopo alone. So it seems like it depends on which province is more on the ball.

KZN figures could prove interesting

I guess it's for best that these useless debates are happening on a porn site where they can't really cause problems. At least we hope that's the case.

I think it would help to put things in perspective. The presidents of both Brazil and the USA both publicly downplayed the threat of the virus and took little action in the beginning. Look at the numbers there in comparison to ours. Also if the rate of infection remains low, getting back to normal will happen a lot quicker. Government response hasn't been perfect but I think it's been good overall because Cyril takes subject matter experts more seriously and I do too more than I take the opinions of random people on a porn site

This is something to think about.

All projections based on known numbers now as per some analysts.

So we had about 200 000 test done. Of those 200 000 about 5000 tested positive.

Let's say the same amount per 200 000 applies to rest of population that had not been tested yet.

We could actually be sitting with+/- 1 and a half million positive cases right now across S.A. of which about 30 000 will end up in icu and die because of it.

Looking at it like this.. Changes the picture a bit.

Still even using this.. the numbers are still a lot lower than the originally predictions millions dying.

Is it worth letting a economy die and letting people starve and potentially having civil unrest in weeks to come.?







so there are a possibility of 1.5 Mil infected people and approx. 105 people dead due to Covin-19 in SA (by law all fatalities need to registered and autopsy done). 105 divide by 1.5 Million equals 0.007% death rate....hmm, just playing with statistic figures.

Thank god Blaza is here to povide us with perspective. Since we are all just on a sex site and can't think for ourselves or allowed to discuss our opinions, on an open forum. Thank you Blaza.

@Blaza: I did not have much of a problem with the initial lockdown giving time to prepare.
But since you seem pretty smart, I assume you have noticed that SA is a considerably poorer country than the rich world. We under no circumstances can afford to throw money at problems like they can.
Surely you are smart enough not to believe the socialist/communist drivel that we can dish out grants where people don't have to work to earn an income? Or that we will be just fine when more than a million people looses their jobs? What may surprise you is that no government can survive without private sector generated taxes. And we are destroying the private sector to save maybe a few lives...Many more may die from hunger than the lives saved from the virus.

Go on, debate the point to your hearts content. Perhaps it makes you feel better or makes a difference in your life, I'm all for it.

As for the actual content of the debate, I'm well aware of the economic impact. This is not the first pandemic the world has known and much of the current draconian measures the world over are driven by lessons from the Spanish flu pandemic for example. Now even if the there's zero lockdown and it's business continues as normal, the economy will still tank cause that's what pandemics do to economies.

You know when a large number of people get seriously Ill or die at the same time, I'm sure business will be booming when that happens right.

As for the socialist/communist drivel, I'm sure you right about that. All this stuff about people dying must have been invented by them.

Have a good day, I'm sure we now all feel better for having solved the world's problems through our valiant keyboard actions on a porn site

One final point, I'm sure the hospitalisation of Boris Johnson and the effect that had for days on British government must have all been masterminded by the liberal/left wing communists as well right? Another plot to keep the economy down for neferous ends
