From UK Gov:

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) advise against all but essential travel to the following regions that the Spanish Ministry of Health have designated as areas of community transmission of coronavirus: Madrid and La Rioja, and the municipalities of La Bastida and Vitoria (both in the Basque Country) and Miranda de Ebro (in Castilla y León).

As I work for a major airline and am in commercial - It is shocking how much of an impact this has caused to trade.
The near future is very poor and more airlines will fail as this continues
The worse of this has yet to come I feel

Of the confirmed cases. Thousands will have it or have had it and not tested though surely?

Exactly. The exact number of cases cannot be known, probably more likely 10 times more have it and not been diagnosed. And as an Italian guy I work with said, the strain of the virus is mutating all the time, and seems to be getting weaker. For example Callum Hudson Odoi (Chelsea football player) said he felt like he has a bit of a cold on Monday, was tested positive soon after, and now is fully recovered. Just got to hope this is correct....

Agree about a mortality rate only being relevant if all the positive cases are included. Otherwise you have asymmetrical data, which is broadly meaningless.

Re mutation, there’s no evidence of mutation. Mutation means a change to the molecular structure of the virus. Even in China, positive cases were usually mild. So Hudson-Odoi being a fit athlete was able to fight it off with ease as a lot of people did in China when the virus emerged.

I agree. He was well prepped for that press conference. Although he was still bumbling Boris, he kept to the point, said and explained what was necessary and why
