Telecombedrijven willen geld van Netflix. fd.nl/bedrijfsleven/… #FD #Tech #Media Te gek voor woorden: telecombedrijven willen eten van twee walletjes: van de abonnee en ook van de leverancier van films. Makelaars vragen ook niet geld van de verkoper en de koper.

@benwebcare Indertijd heb ik een abonnement voor mijn zoon afgesloten, maar op mijn naam en bankrekening, omdat hij minderjarig was. Hij is nu meerderjarig en we zouden graag het abonnement bijbehorende telefoonnumber op zijn naam en rekening zetten. Hoe doen we dit?

@TheLocalSweden Are the results in? 1000 antibody tests sent to Stockholm residents April 8, how many were postive for corona?

@DeltaTrader4 @DryHumorDryBeef @tan123 Exactly. Infection rate mortality much lower than case fatality rate as we probably underestimate real number of infections including mild and symptomless cases. Problem is still with ICU and hospital beds.

Re: "it is possible that 123 million people – more than one-third of the U.S. population – are already infected": If that was actually true, would locking down the entire general population make any sense? wattsupwiththat.com/2020/04/04/are…

#COVID19 sceptr.net/2020/04/antwer…. Lijkt raar maar volgens mij is dit heel positief: meer milde gevallen betekent % sterfte en zware gevallen over hele bevolking lager en al meer mensen immuun. Nog te weinig immuniteit en te veel nieuwe gevallen om sociale isolatie te verminderen.

@UrbaneSlave @alexandreafonso Indeed skewed by only testing more severe cases. Random test in NL already showed 6-9 % positive in Brabant - a severely hit NL province - on March 8/9. Random test Belgium now: 20 to 25 % positive, hardly any symptoms: mortality and severe case % lower and more immunity already.

@alexandreafonso So are we to conclude that the Iceland stats are correct due to wider testing and the Netherlands figures are skewed to those showing symptoms?

Here is a distribution of recorded Covid-19 cases in Iceland (which tests broadly, even people with no symptoms) and the Netherlands (which tests narrowly, only those with severe symptoms)

@alexandreafonso My take away: 1) the disease is more widespread than expected expected, 2) mortality rates are likely overestimated, 3) we are moving towards herd immunity. The problem is, of course, a worldwide lack of health care capacity for the vulnerable (the weaker will perish first).

@Raj63245195 @PKelpe @nytimes And why have results on random serological testing for Covid-19 not yet been published? We need to no the % of already infected people in different regions?

India has reported around 125 cases of the coronavirus, and it is a bit of a mystery how the world’s second-most-populous nation, with 1.3 billion people, has remained relatively unscathed while the number of cases explodes to its east and west nyti.ms/2IY0YcR

#COVID2019 #immuniteit Op welke website kunnen mensen resultaten thuistesten antistoffen corona melden? Met beschrijving of men klachten heeft en welke. De resultaten van de bloedtesten laten te lang op zich wachten!

#COVID2019 #Immunity tests: more and more people do home tests. Can someone make a website to report results? To get faster insight into devrlopment of immunity to Covid-19?

@CGN_Wageningen @WUR Wageningen UR Experimental farm Unifarm also was able to sow our quinoa breeding trials! Great job. We would have lost a full year otherwise.

Vanavond op RTL4 Editie NL om 18.15 uur: nieuwe gewassen in Nederland door klimaatverandering beter mogelijk: bijvoorbeeld #quinoa, kikkererwten, kidneybonen, soja. @WURplant @pbr_wur. Hopelijk blijven de sinaasappels uit Spanje komen!
