Obesity is rife in the Caribbean, among women more so.

I saw evidence of an emerging obesity crisis in Iceland four years ago.
It’s true that the US has a worse obesity problem (and just look at their COVID death stats) but I believe the UK is the fat man of Europe.
perhaps i'm reading it wrong but doesn't San Marino have the highest deaths per million

Yes webbo 10.35, closely followed by Belgium. But you mustn’t let facts get in the way of a ‘let’s knock the government story’. The media have constantly misrepresented the data during this crisis quoting, numbers of deaths instead of death rates for example. The only European countries that have managed the virus fairly successfully are Germany and the Scandinavian countries.
Karl @ 10.07, Brilliant . .. Have you been chatting to TTT ?.
Regarding obesity, it tends to increase wherever the modern western diet has been introduced.
Countries that no longer follow traditional ways of eating have developed serious levels of obesity.
//People are just not adhering to the rules,...//

What particular rules are you referring to, Vulcan? Or do you mean "guidance" or perhaps what the police interpret as the law?

The main problem I see where the law is broken is people mixing in each other's houses. It's rife in my neck of the woods and is a clear breach of the "rules" (i.e. the law). But I don't see how you can say, because you've seen a lot of cars on the road, that the people in them are breaking the law. What laws do you believe they are breaking and what leads you to believe that?
600 deaths is half the peak innit?

what are we doing that is right - we dont know as ever.

I reckon all the 80 y o that were gonna croak, have
and the ones that are left are hardier souls

what are we doing right?
well the RECOVERY trial is one
ow many large data collections are being made about vovid?
One: the NHS one.
Other countries have health sectors - yeah elf sectors as TTT wd say - and big pharma is not interested in diseases - only the sales they can make

https://www.recoverytrial.net/

how big is the recovery trial? well if they have a million data points that is a lorra data - and allows you to say - - such and such does NOT occur.... ( coz it hasnt been seen see)

anyway had me jab today and feel less - - threatened
As Spare Ed seems to be stamping down on this sort of thing, shouldn't this be in News?
LadyCG 10.25, if that is the case then obesity is beneficial when it comes to dealing with Covid, see
www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/cases-2019-ncov-eueea?fbclid=IwAR2Zta3jvS3wfVaNREJr6Ksx9jQvbHdWc-l18nDiIMmn9-u6auf935aVr1o

or at else obesity does not explain why some countries do so much better than others in the battle. It seems some are just conspicuously good at managing situations while others are all at sea.
* please ignore surplus "at"....
The Media and TV category heading DOES say 'Chat about your favourite TV shows, movies and the latest celebrity news and gossip', so perhaps this isn't the right place?
New Judge, The Gov UK website states:
It is against the law to leave your home to travel unless for work or other legally permitted reasons.
Perhaps all the drivers I met were going to work or had permitted reasons, I don't know. I was just comparing the amount of traffic I saw at 7:30 on a Monday, during the first and current lockdowns, one car on the first and scores on the current.












Thanks vulcan. Yes I know the law. I was just interested to learn how you concluded that "There are far too many people in this country adjusting the rules to suit their own requirements,..". Among the culprits in this respect are the police as I have pointed out.
As well as a lot more traffic on the roads than in the first lockdown when it was like a ghost town and the police followed me to work for a bit, there seem to be lot more people on high streets in pairs with cups of coffee in there hands (is a takeaway coffee really essential???) every time they show streets on the news and interview passers by about the lockdown.
It was also reported that schools are FOUR times busier than in the first lockdown, some schools seem to have around 50% attendance
Question Author
Has this been moved, I could swear I put this in News yesterday , hence my link, I'd rarely use a link in media and tv which it is not ??? It was News yesterday !

If it has been moved this is an odd category to move it to.
I thought it'd been in Media and TV all along - and I thought it'd been put there as the OP was commenting on a Media story, the Sky one.
Question Author
I wouldn't use a link in Media and TV if I put it in here believe me it was by accident and I hope the Ed moves it to News where it should be
