"I think its awful, surely as the national news broadcaster the BBC should have information on it! Its a disgrace, no updated facts or figures from the briefings, symptom pages are very poor and dont show symptoms until very end. Unless there is an opportunity to embarrass the government they dont report it. All news on USA, Spain and Italy Detail story on a usa sperm donation Friday night dinner Wives cutting husbands hair Ffs its shite i say Bollox EDITORS you are a disgrace and we all know you are deviants so are likely to read this" There's all the relevant information you'd get in basically any other news source so take the tin foil hat off | |||

When it hits over 50 I'm sure you will get a story. Most at the moment are stories about individual examples like the 21 year old with no underlying health problems. | |||

"Not only that, they had a question and answer just now One of the "experts" said If you are stir crazy and you want to go for a short drive it's probably ok Why do they put this shite on Now half the country will think it's ok to for a drive in the country IMHO they have far too much coverage, far too many experts giving their own opinions, presenters asking leading contentious questions All they need to do is stick to the facts and repeat government advice " But you have to be able to balance that to keep people reading about cute dogs or whatever, so they will have a higher chance of reading the repeated official message. If the BBC is so partisan or has so much unnecessary scaremongering, then why are so many people still taking their news as gospel from social media; which is essentially unregulated, dangerous gossip? | |||

This is a time to give all this information not criticise all the time you do not understand how serious this crisis is | |||

"The gov website has number of cases, it's in various places on the BBC website too. The Guardian breaks it down by area. There are lots of statistics out there. You have to look for them. It's not difficult. Apply your research skills, critical thinking, etc." Think that backs up my argument, Gov and Guardian have figures BBC choosing to not to publish. If you want research I would also add in WHO org as they have a daily situation report. Thank you | |||

I'm starting to suspect that because the information the OP wants isn't just handed to him on a spoon, he thinks the BBC is failing him. It's not a personal service. It's like a library. Go find it. | |||

I personally find the other sources easier to digest. Not all sites can do all things in all ways to suit all people. | |||

" UK Recorded Cases Number of Tests Number of Deaths im happy to pipe down Europe Recorded Cases Number of Tests Number of Deaths " If you want the stats they are widely available Corona stats https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ Testing stats https://ourworldindata.org/covid-testing Collating stats is not a job for the BBC as it is complex in nature and forever changing - providing stats can be misinterpreted and cause major issues I'm no BBC fan btw | |||

"Ohhh God.... Yes its buried in amongst stuff, not easily found Thanks again for supporting my point" What is your point? So far I'm seeing someone who wants the national broadcaster to cater to him specifically rather than being responsible enough to seek out information among the many things available for a diverse readership. | |||

"So the death rate is not important news" There are plenty of sources for the death rate. So, basically you want it to emblazon the death rate all over the site each day? Because it's not doing that, it is somehow not supporting the government?? Eh? | |||

"So in summary The pro BBC anti Boris forumites feel that BBC TOP News running USA figures is valid BBC UK news running no figures is appropriate I think you just like a row and dont actually consider the point being made, instead you will just.. object. I work with several people similar to you. They never really perform well " Classic example of somebody so bored, they start arguing with themselves | |||

" So why choose to quote USA but not UK The USA is about to become the epicentre... some might say that is newsworthy. Test coverage is not uniform or complete so the death and infection rates are not exact anywhere." Yes, the BBC serves an international population as well as those of us who care about global events. The UK information is prioritised as you'd expect from a UK source, but sometimes other stuff is more newsworthy. | |||

"Just been to the BBC news app on my phone. Clicked on Live news. 2nd paragraph down, current infected and death figures. God that took soooooo much finding." Yeah FINDING WHY HAVE TO LOOK Clearly Does warrant a HEADLINE so its clear the BBC provides the information you all want. In abundance in a very clear manner, Oh look now there are 3.3 million US citizens unemployed record numbers.. Yep we got a negative trump headline | |||
