I cannot see any mention of Covid in it. in the treatment regimes of the trials...french data wrt treatment in particular too we are still awaiting randomised .double blind study results of HCQ in the early phases of illness ...before the cytokine storm at 10-14 days it will not be in the Product Information because it is being used off licence with government approval...that should tell you something but no conclusive results as yet Edited May 23, 2020 by Ivan the terrible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for business and factories outside or on the outskirts of major towns and cities it would be more favourable than using Public transport with people packed into trains and subway etc where no social distance can be applied or is not being applied.

fatbhoytim Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I see on BBC that Shearings, one of the biggest coach holiday providers in the UK, has went tits up with 2500 jobs lost and over 64,000 bookings gone. Also Hertz car rental has filed for bankruptcy. How many more business's are going to go bust before this ends? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed. Yesterday though that the Mayor of London has not only increased the congestion charge but also extended the hours. But bikes and scooter as far as I am aware are exempt from charges along with Electric cars. For some a pushbike ride to the centre of London could be quite grueling but good exercise.

Regarding congestion charges its down to emissions and older bikes have to pay full whack. It's a big issue at the moment among motorcycle action groups.

What do you class as "scooters" Is that like a vespa or the little electric engine things ? As far as I am aware the electric scooters are illegal here ?

Yep my Harley is non-ULEZ,at present it's only central London but from October next year it's extended to the north & south circulars.OK it's polluting but I've done just over 20k miles in nearly 17 years so I don't think I've aggravated anyone's asthma. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
