Captain Toms efforts : Can this get some on here to adjust their stance on judging people by Age ....? In fact making Any unecessary reference to Age.

In the same way that we might hope that Racist Idiots like Lenny Henry and that Tommy Robinson bloke judging people by colour of skin and suchlike !
 
A 106-year-old woman, thought to be the oldest person in the UK to recover from coronavirus, has been discharged from hospital.

Connie Titchen, who was born in 1913, was diagnosed with coronavirus soon after being admitted to Birmingham City Hospital in mid-March with suspected pneumonia.

She made a full recovery after three weeks and left hospital on Tuesday.

In reference to the first post on this thread it’s like the maddest game of top trumps ever.

Mercedes has completed production of the first 10,000 breathing aids for patients with coronavirus, which are now ready for distribution throughout the NHS.

The CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) device was produced in partnership with engineers at University College London. It delivers a mix of air and oxygen to the lungs under pressure, via a tightly fitting face mask.

Unlike with a mechanical ventilator, patients on CPAP do not need to be sedated, or have a tube down their windpipe so they can continue to respond to medical staff. The devices were made at the Mercedes-AMG HPP plant in Northamptonshire, which normally makes F1 engines.

They are being evaluated at University College Hospital and several others in London and south east England. Early data on around 40 patients, who would otherwise have gone on a ventilator, found half were able to go home within 14 days of admission to hospital.
 
It seems a bit unfair to leave Yodel out of it. Needs to be between 6am and 10pm to include them. :)
