Earlsdon and Clint -sorry to hear about your work situations, good luck with searching. Next year will be a better year ! I know what people are saying about exercise, gym football etc, it’s partially the routine of it all. I try and still do some stuff at home (press ups, resistance bands etc)...

Think too early for full stats post Covid but I saw this the other week (in a different paper - can’t remember which) https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/paramedic-callouts-suicides-attempted-london-double-year-a4573283.html

The snappy messaging worked at the start...possibly too well with hundreds of thousands/millions of missed screenings, GP appointments etc. The health impact of which we probably won’t know for months or more I know a fair few people and yet I don’t think other than my mum and step dad, who are...

Just to clarify, I agree (and hope) that the restrictions are having an affect....the regional tier threes were before the National lockdown by all accounts. I was saying if they end up having to apply further/stricter measures I would start to question, the effectiveness of some of the measures...

Exactly. If they have to implement additional measures/restrictions then I’ll also start to question the effectiveness of all other measures, even to some extent mask wearing etc (if the virus is still running wild ?!!) I appreciate that probably makes me sound a little trump like (not what any...

100% agree that number of deaths is a travesty but arresting people for going outside their area or that bloke Italy who reported his mates fall getting fined What type of society do we actually want to live in ? If things are that severe move the schools to online learning for a couple of...

What fucking world have we turned into ?! Sturgeons going to be arresting people outside their areas by the sounds of it. Sad times

This is disgrace all round (assuming all accurate - which it appears to be). I’ve got no issue with getting people you know involved if they can deliver, but if they don’t you/they have got to be held accountable The mixture of politicians cronies sticking their collective noses in the trough...

I like Southgate but he’s so wedded to his formation even when the players needed for it aren’t available 5 defenders, 2DM, 2CM (playing as wide men in front three) and 1 CF....when we needed to win the game. Bizarre

To be fair to Cummings I’d keep Hancock away from any tv appearances as well !!! (The boycott was just churlish though) Ps rumours of a cabinet reshuffle in Jan with Hancock and Williamson potentially being moved/removed. Would be a wise !

Yeah, agreed. I don’t like lumping everyone in together, there’s various different ‘antivax’ groups from the absolute nutjobs to the ‘unproven’ concerned people you mention, to people like me and a couple of a my mates. We’re wondering if the risk of Covid to us (we reckon we’ve all possibly had...

I check the total hospitalised covid patients on PHE reports Fernando (appreciate it’s England only) to keep an eye on the net increase in patients each day. The average net increase is a lot less than the 1.5-2k daily admissions as many patients admitted to hospital are now coming out again a...

Wonder if any of this is at least partially tied into the leak prior to second lockdown

There was also 380k of tests yesterday and 23k confirmed cases. As Powis said today, don’t just look at single days in isolation, look at all of the data including that various sampling surveys (most of which are indicating the spread is slowing and R rate reducing...although there will always...

yeah, a mate of mine thought he’d played it down too much...definitely not in my book. It doesn’t take much for the a chunk of the public to think ‘it’s all ok then’ which wouldn’t be ideal in the middle of a lockdown attempting to suppress transmission rates !!

Its a pilot so wouldn’t expect it to go perfectly, however those numbers would make rates in Liverpool being c600-700 per 100,000. I also heard yesterday they were saying as a country it’s about 1 in 90, so it actually sounds like it might not be far off. Thats the problem with the media, they...

100% Ian. Transmission and capacity in regions are what should be considered when implementing restrictions/measures Edit - as well as understanding the likely benefits of any restrictions/measures taken - this is the main bit which I think is missing !

I don’t think anyone can doubt that. The questions as I’ve raised before are: Do you lock down areas of the country where there is relatively low spread at the same time as those with significant transmission rates and Do you close places/locations where you can’t confirm the benefits of doing...

It’s the same as elsewhere Dave ie Germany, France etc...the bigger question for me (which I might well be on the wrong side of science on) is does a national lockdown deliver any more than the Tier system would’ve Either way fingers crossed Ps you’ve attached some great articles on the...

I can’t bring myself to post on match thread (we’re holding our own but have got to cut up the sloppy errors and fast) so will just post some good news on here....especially as it’s amazing how many stop commenting on daily figures etc when they look like they’re improving - will take that...
