I don’t disagree mate. The interesting additional dynamic regarding mask wearing is that I guess it will help prevent spread of flu which is a big concern this winter so the reticence to reintroduce appears strange. I’m just personally a little sceptical how much impact the relatively minor...

I can’t really knock people for trying to get back to normal (I know I have). People not getting vaccinated or not testing themselves when they are around higher risk people is unacceptable in my book although some will disagree

Yeah, I agree, however, I suppose it’s what measures are acceptable/workable (and have a material effect) until that happens.

100% agree. Also one of the most important messages in the briefing was re-enforcing the message for people to do a LF before seeing a higher risk relative/person. Common sense for most but I bet many aren’t doing it

Yeah, that’s the only option but to what end Pete ? If it’s to stop nhs being overwhelmed, I agree and if it’s to buy time for people to get vaccinated, I also agree but neither of those are particularly relevant currently. If it’s to stop people getting it, I don’t want to sound defeatist but...

I think you and grendel are both right to an extent. We are generally testing more than a lot of countries, however, currently this will be partly due to higher transmission in the Uk. As has been said numerous times the main figures now are hospitalisations (Covid inpatients) and deaths. If...

All kind of context as well. Were they the only people in the carriage, the guy opposite could be her fella ? Has Gordon chosen to sit there just to take the photo ? Is she uncomfortable breathing etc etc ? I’ve pulled mask down for a minute when nobody is around just to get some air in. Gordon...

Spot on. Multiply that by the number of doses given out around the world as well There was a caller on LBC the other day (a teacher frighteningly) who was still refusing jab and sighted issues this young woman had...’oh, is this someone you know ?’ said the presenter. ‘No an American woman...

To be fair I think there was 230k + boosters yesterday and 75k first/second doses. I think if they can get over 400k combined it would be pretty good going especially when considering flu jab/other GP and backlog pressures. Also boosters are staggered (still advice is after 6months) ps agree...

Vendetta - truth, lies and the mafia on Netflix is pretty good. Ps Queen & Slim now on Netflix (previously Prime), very good film.

Week 37-40 in last weeks ONS surveillance report. I’d imagine due to waning immunity, especially in elderly it might be even more pronounced over a longer period...

Agreed. They’ll need take into account the percentage of population that’s been vaccinated as well. The data will be there, someone from NHS just needs to crunch the numbers

Pleased with this. Might not be an automatic starter but he’ll score some important goals…just hope he can stay fit now

The remaining 5m unvaccinated need to see this graph extrapolated out for the year to date . No brainer

A frustrating second half, we never really had a sniff but we need some perspective. After a poor start to the season they’ve drawn against West Brom and Stoke (and also beaten Swansea). They’ve just been drawing too many games We missed a fully fit Vik. Hopefully he’ll be ok for Saturday

yeah, just kill the game a bit but we just got sloppy/rattled and they were just on us like Luton

To be fair they’ve pinned us back second half. We’ve been sloppy in patches, giving ball away, silly corners etc but they’ve been good

On the ropes here ! Need to turn the tide quick

Been coming. Great header

Great finish by Walker that was in the end, especially as he was off balance. Well deserved lead as well, played some really good stuff in patches.
