Why do you think this random Hollywood rumour clown, who hasn't been relevant in over a decade, is some how worth posting here? Fucking melted man.

Because he may know someone who knows someone who knows some info? 
 

edit: although he probably doesn’t

Perez Hilton has deleted that since. Please don't use him as a source on this... Goldenvoice just posted this anyways.

In terms of risk Coachella is in California which is approx 1.8x bigger than the UK and they have had 1 case whereas UK is currently 115. Ergo their risk is much lower

Our local mp shared a business centre with us for a while. He never washed his hands after using the loo. Some example

I’d question how many people in the US have come forward with symptoms considering how much they have to pay for their healthcare.

I have tickets to see Micheal Kiwanuka at Barrowlands on the 13th March. Got an email last night saying it's been postponed 😞 They didn't mention coronavirus but I assume it's that?

$3200 to get tested in Florida if you don’t have insurance.

Because of costs like these the great state of Missouri has hence tested nearly 17 people.

 

How do you nearly test someone?

Think they declined the test when they saw the potential bill

This along with what I think 15% of the work force not getting paid for sick leave and if they were to get paid for sick leave a large percentage get about 8-10 days.

That’s unreal!! The actual test costs  $40-50...it’s just a bog standard PCR. Crikey...

Can’t you let people believe?

Actually think artists not travelling is the bigger risk here. I’m supposed to be at a conference in San Diego at the end of April, up til yesterday they were saying all fine. Now saying travel restrictions on speakers and attendees from their own institutions might cause postponement. I guess it’ll depend on how many back out and where we are later in the year. If cases peak in March, might have settled down by May and we’ll be grand.

Why in utter God would you share a Perez Hilton rumour here? Is it 2005? 

It’s the same as Sun articles on Glastonbury. Yes the source is cancer but they probably have friends in high places who know this sort of stuff.

The showbiz Sun for example, usually get accurate Glastonbury info because their sources are directly from the showbiz camp. Same with Perez. He is abhorrent but he probably does know someone involved in Coachella.

Coachella are adamant that it is going ahead, and I think it will, but obviously you don’t know what conversations are happening behind the doors.
