MHancock caught bullshitting again
Too dumb to work out that if you’re going to be a good liar you need a good memory, at least longer than 4 days.
That'll do!The Canary Islands are named after dogs not birds.
Oranges aren’t a naturally occurring fruit. It’s actually a hybrid of two other citrus fruits. One’s a tangerine, don’t recall the other.Tell me something I don't know!
Do you think they might be revised downward?If you mean wet markets then yes we do.
Where's the dataCases started going up in London before the end of the last lockdown. Mostly driven by this new strain. Not good. I suppose after yesterday's evacuation of London we will soon find out how quickly it can spread.

Track and trace staff are in including the day and five others .I’d be more annoyed if pubs were open. But I’ve known my shift rotation since the beginning of the year so I’m not annoyed. I am annoyed I’m in the office though.
And I’m annoyed people assume it’s feet up season.
So overall I’m annoyed.

surely it takes some period of time to measure whether a variant is more / less contagious or dangerous or could impact vaccination effectiveness?Now I’m no fan of Hancock (he’s a prick) however I think there was a difference between the two comments. It sounds like he knew about the new strain over a week ago but they only found out about the issue of its significantly increased transmissibility (is that a word ?! looks weird when written) on Friday when Witty and Vallance had a call with government. Opens up another debate as to when the boffins knew about it (think signs are as early as Sept but they’re not going to have all data relating to it straight away) etc etc. To be fair, it just sounds like shit pre Xmas luck for us all...stick it on the pile !

Yeah that's it, I usually have more than one holiday or break but nothing this year. Usually buy extra holiday on top of our basic allowance but missed the cut off so didn't for 2020.Each day seems to drag, but we're in December when I'm sure it was August just last week!
Guess that's what happens when every day turns into pretty much the same(!)

Well Tisza there has been no actual data published or released as of yet ,on something that was first noticed 3months back.surely it takes some period of time to measure whether a variant is more / less contagious or dangerous or could impact vaccination effectiveness?
They identified the new variant back in Septembersurely it takes some period of time to measure whether a variant is more / less contagious or dangerous or could impact vaccination effectiveness?

The plan has worked, it's the new variant that's fucked up Christmas not the abysmal messaging of this government.Exactly. That’s what I was trying to say (not very well obviously !) ie that they might see there’s a new strain/variant but you’re not going to have any info/data on how it differs etc for a while. Suppose it’s good news that the boffins spotted it really...even if it has fucked up a lot of people’s Christmas
Apparently samples were taken in September, tested in October and results were in.start of December
heard a professor from Imperial college discussing it yesterday, which reassured me that it wasn’t part of some weird conspiracy. I think other countries reactions and the latest case data also support this

I've got to admit I'm sceptical.
Socks on?Anybody else going to be on their own for most of Christmas day want a wanking race?
Socks on?
Always think of that Hank's film when Wilson Wilson Wilson gets mentioned.Donnay ones are mine of choice.
Wilson when Wimbledon is on to get on the bandwagon.
Where is this info please?Apparently samples were taken in September, tested in October and results were in.start of December
Where is this info please?
New coronavirus variant: What do we know? lot here.Where is this info please?
New coronavirus variant: What do we know? lot here.
The scary part is the supposition of where it came from. That one person could be the source for all these infections
Won't that always be the case though?New coronavirus variant: What do we know? lot here.

Yes which has resulted in 1000 + of those, case's,how many overall have occurred in the specific areas mentioned during this period exactly ?Saw it on my Twitter timeline earlier so no idea of it's accuracy just something sounds dodgy about the whole new strain thing to me.
edit - thought it might have been in the timeline of the Anthony Costello article but i couldn't find it but I did find this on a similar theme:
Where's the data
1000 cases against several hundred thousand in the same period?
Ta it's just that Hancock used the 1000 figure in parlaiment on Wednesday,then it was said around 1100-1200 on yesterday's newsYeah, you're right, I shouldn't have said mostly. Assuming the %s Whitty gave yesterday are somewhere near accurate then this new strain will have accounted for around 4,000 cases in the capital a week in mid November at 28% and around 25,000 this week just finished at 60%. A 6 fold increase in around a month.
When you read through that there are many queries related to the transmission.New coronavirus variant: What do we know? lot here.
