    That's a better priority system, lets get Cov done first.

    slight increase on yesterday but 47,525 is still 3 days in a row under 50K for the first time in a couple of weeks so hopefully the average will start going down.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Johnson is rubbish at PMQs without the back benchers cheering him on. Having said that I find Starmer disappointing, he seems to struggle to land a blow. 'armed with a spreadsheet' sums it up. Thats all well and good and plays well with his supporters but doesn't cut across with the general...

    Having seen the pictures from Millennium Point I think what people were expecting when the term mass vaccination centres was thrown around and the reality are quite far apart. What was shown at Millennium Point could have been setup in 24 hours. Its not really that different to what gets set...

    Would be much better if they just told us what the plan was going forward rather than randomly making announcements that contradict each other. First it was no 24/7 as nobody would go, then it wasn't possible logistically and now Johnson is saying it will be up and running as soon as possible...

    Think Priti Patel has been reading the forum. After the talk on here yesterday of the rules being easy to follow she said at last nights briefing the rules are "very simple and clear". This was swiftly followed by her talking about how people can enjoy outdoor recreation. That’s outdoor...

    Its listed as a 352 bed hospital. Although interesting to note that older listings from a few years back show 440 beds so seems there has been a cut. There's a Telegraph article from April saying critical care capacity is being increased and can go up as high as 42 beds. If there's an issue its...

    Anti body test

    Not sure its worth the money. Is there any benefit to knowing you have had it in the past? You won't know if you have immunity so will still need to follow all social distancing and get a vaccine when available.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Its playground stuff. Would be hilarious if the consequences of his actions weren't so dangerous.

    If they can maintain the current level, which will be an issue of supply as the infrastructure is now in place, we could hit the governments 2m a week which I was very sceptical of. The other issue will be maintaining the level of 1st dose vaccinations when they hit the point at which they have...

    The problem is people haven't grasped that we're not pursuing a so called zero-covid strategy so the argument why can't I do x when you can do y doesn't work. They aren't being compared in that way, its keeping the overall level below what is deemed too much for the NHS, simple as that...

    Yep. Its a hard slog now but I guess you just have to try and remember it could be worse. We seem to continually be playing catch up and we're well past the stage where you can excuse things as 'nobody could have predicted this'. Seems we're never going to learn that acting earlier is the best...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Exactly. Same with the All Lives Matter / Blue Lives Matter rubbish. Didn't stop them attacking the police. Hopefully we won't be hearing rubbish like 'we're not against BLM we're against Marxism' now that its been shown for what it really is. Unfortunately I doubt that will be the case.

    If you need cheering up check the NoFlyList hash tag on twitter. My personal favourite so far is someone crying that "you're treating me like a black person". Who would have thought storming the Capital Buildings might have consequences?!?

    Aston Villa v Liverpool

    Shows what a different planet the PL is. All the talk of Villa having to play their youth team when the reality is it includes someone they signed from Barcelona for £900K! Because there's no room in the schedule for postponed games so they've been told play or they're out.

    Looks like the numbers are still a bit all over the place since Christmas. We were hovering around 60K a day then a sudden drop to 52K now a sudden jump to 68K. Cases by specimen date will be clearer but that takes 3 or 4 days to catch up.

    There's literally a warning on the website of the place they went to and all their social media saying don't visit unless you live in the local village and that the police will be there carrying out checks.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Do you honestly think if at the BLM protest in the same location they had stormed the Capital Buildings the result would have been the same? Would the police have been opening gates for them and posing for selfies? At the BLM protests in the same location peaceful protesters, not to mention...
