I said I'd come in for free half an hour early each morning and clean out Ann Lucas's ashtray, they said I'd probably need an hour.

To be fair she held her phone number up on a sign and maybe I got the wrong idea.

Didn't even need to spike her drink so thought it was on.

Probably shouldn't have got my cock out.

Mate defriended me last night on Facebook. He posted about Italy finding it is a bacteria and not a virus. I uploaded the scientific fact check but he still wouldn’t accept it. Said he’d got a phd and knows how to do his own research. Tin foil hat dangerous man

some bad news

COVID-19: Vaccine benefits may be outweighed by people ignoring restrictions, scientists warn

A survey found 29% of people planned to adhere less strictly to coronavirus restrictions once they have been vaccinated.

some good news

COVID-19: UK approves use of Moderna's coronavirus vaccine and orders 10 million more doses

Matt Hancock calls it "another weapon in our arsenal to tame this awful disease" - though doses will not be available until March.

though won't be available until later in the year

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.

Heard on the radio yesterday parts of Essex are 1 in 18 and they expect that ratio to spread to other parts of the county

They are still fucking it aren't they? One could go to a place of worship and a garden centre. No need. Also schools are confusing, we got a key worker place even though I'm at home working. I sent the kids in one day then school emailed and said if one parent is home so should children be. I felt from a safety perspective for the teachers and others it was probably the right thing to do to keep them off so I have done. Since then the wife has had communications to say children with only one key worker parent should infact be in school. Very confusing.

Different guy. The guy I’ve mentioned before on here is one of my oldest friends and unfortunately yes, a covidiot. Luckily he’s avoided it so far which really is lucky as he’s not been in the best of health for a number of years and I fear it would finish him off should he get it. Fortunately some things have been taken out of his control, like his company have insisted that he works from home given his underlying health conditions.

I really don’t think a lot of these covidiots appreciate what they put loved ones through with actions.

In our schools case even with strict criteria & vetting, they've ended up with about 1/2 the entire schools pupils in....as have many other primaries in the area.....so its the worst of all worlds.....over 200 kids, all being dropped off & collected + a (so far) piss poor level of remote learning.
...so its fucking the kids education, causing untold social damage, financial hardship & the school is still a ( albeit lesser) vector for transmission.....

Immense cluster fuck all round really......and its going be like this until April FFS.

Saw an amusing article a while ago (was it a 1000 pages ago on here?).
I can go to the pet shop and buy a coat for my dog, but not to a retailer to get a coat for my child.

Oh dear, yesterday's low just a reporting blip

That said, the 29th Dec still the peak as far as cases by specimen date. However, I understand that once again tests are taking a long time to return results.

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.

The guidance has stuffed schools over - especially primary. Less kids bunged into less rooms giving a not too dissimilar proportion in some areas (though not all and far less the further you go up Secondary school) - some people need it because their employers are being difficult and exploiting a widening scope from the DfE - but that’s not going to help in the control and suppression of the virus.

I edited my post subsequently but think that's going to be unreliable until a week or so past the date in question.

The admission data is awful, nearly 4k admitted by 4th Jan which is way way higher than the peak of the first wave.

At least with vaccinations there probably won't be such a peak of deaths but there are going to be a lot.

I got my test result 6 hours after taking it, then got my vaccine the following day, results come Back pretty fast now, but I'm also a NHS employee so. Maybe thats whyy I got a fast test.
