Just call me Captain Cheery bringing all the good news: What’s interesting here is the data is basically time lagged by three or four days. Not undercounting so much as late counting. Means we’ll probably stay in lockdown slightly too long if anything.

Quite enjoyed Bayes theorem at uni, this is a quite depressing use of it though: How far away are 'immunity passports'? - UnHerd

Surely that’s the reduced number and it’s 3-4% of either 500k or 250k depending on if accounting for shielding. Need to know I’d say 600-800 is the low bar.

You’re averaging a Sunday and a Monday tho, and if we’re right about Sunday’s being low that’ll drag the average down. I wonder if week on week growth isn’t the best indicator but last Tuesdays were about half today’s IIRC. As always let’s see where we are the rest of the week. If we fail to...

I dont either but that is the official line.

Johnson in intensive care is mental, hope it’s just precautionary. Still can’t help but feel it’d be a last resort if they could avoid it. Here’s hoping he recovers quickly if for no other reason than Raab is in charge until then.

Much better TBH. Not having coughing fits and chest isn’t tight, cough more productive now. Did try to get hold of my old GP but couldn’t get past the automated system as I didn’t know the phone number registered! I’ll be honest was going to call 111 but now I can breathe freely it seemed a bit...

Our window cleaner by us is still working, well that’s what they posted on FB. I’m not doing great TBH. Isolation starting to play to my anxiety, eating crap and had all my energy sapped as I’ve been ill since it started but not I’ll enough not to work from home. Webt for my first sanctioned...

Give us a proper open top parade the day the pubs open back up and I’ll be happy.

I doubt anyone other than wingnuts like yourself will give a shit about Brexit in four years TBH. Back to the preserve of pub racists.

Why do you call him that? Weak and nerdy maybe but I’ve never seen anyone suggest he’s stupid.

Bit harsh on Raab.

Uh oh Britain has millions of coronavirus antibody tests, but they don’t work | News | The Times

All the best to Johnson, hope he recovers quickly. Thought this was interesting, though we seem to have moved past the economy vs health arguments.

It’ll plug into HDMI then need power. Some TVs provide +5V from USB and that’s enough, sometimes you need an external power supply. Benefit of external power regardless is you can use CEC to turn the TV on and off using Alexa I believe (that’s how it works with Google anyway). Also Google 4K...

The left needs to get serious about winning elections. Problem is when they do that they become the soft left or even the right. But the schoolboy errors of the last five years need cutting out. It gives too much ammo to those like you mention. Simple stuff like party organisation and election...

This is a good summary: Keir Starmer keeps his friends close and his enemies closer in astute first reshuffle

Famed virologist Amir Khan?

Just saw what Bill Gates is doing, basically throwing billions away to knock a few months off time to market for the vaccine. The man puts other billionaires to shame.

Except you made two points. And couldn’t they just use a statutory instrument?
