    The results are in: (you've got a couple of weeks left to watch this)
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod...uggid=p059y0p1

    They managed to get a lot of people signed up, the results are in, but they are still gathering data, so anyone who wants to take part in a 24 hour study, please do. They are particularly interested in the over 60s and under 25s.

    OK, I know many on here loathe the BBC and everything they do, but they are carrying out an experiment about a pandemic, starting today. If you download the app, it will anonymously track your movements over a 24 hour period, the more people who download it, the better the results.
    The scientific researchers are trying to see how a flu virus would spread through the country and maybe come up with ideas on how to stop the spread


    There’s an app for Android & iPhone.
    BBC Four - BBC Pandemic

    ...and if you live in Haselmere, they are doing a 72 hour study.
    I signed up yesterday and am now happily infecting people (except I haven't gone outside since activating the app)

    Well, I’m contagious now.

    The BBC drama about a flu/sepsis pandemic earlier in the year still lingers with me...

    Old Brexiters (and old remainers) are in the demographic to be killed off by a pandemic. So there will lots of people pissed off that their inheritance has gone to the cats' home.
