Daily summary | Coronavirus in the UK (data.gov.uk)
It’s to try and stop the association between variants and specific nationalities. When the English variant was in the news here my accent got a few worried looks, which made me speak ever louder
Tests going back up as well as cases?
Hospitalisations still look steady.
Considering beaches have been full, football grounds open etc, people in pubs etc and doing a lot more it was expected cases would rise.

Some people calculate test positivity rate which accounts for increased or decreased testing. It's all going in the wrong direction.
It's hardly PC gone mad. East Asians have been attacked since the beginning of the pandemic. Some people are twats. 5G towers got burned down cos of some shit on Facebook remember.
It feels like it. When I found out that yesterday was the one year anniversary of our promotion to the Championship I was scratching my head. Felt like much longer. Weird times.Maybe because I watched Loki last night but I swear this thread is stuck in a time loop.
The WHO reclassified them weeks ago
Yep agreedTests going back up as well as cases?

Yep agreed
Probably because once lots of people have it lots more people will get it and it will become much much larger numbers potentially very quicklyWhy the worry though? It was to be expected.

If the hospital and death numbers stay low due to the vaccinations then to minimise those numbers as a best case then potentially something like 7m more people will be doubly or singularly vaccinated by suspending open all hours for a couple of hours
That’s fair enoughThink the thing is though Pete that weve been told hat many times before and look. Goalposts move too often and that's why people are dead against another 'Ah only 2 more weeks'. I dont trust a word they say

Yes, it was to be expected. The issue (as has been pointed out close to 100 times by now) is that cases going up is an early warning sign for hospitalisations/deaths going up. Now, we’re all hoping that doesn’t play out and the early signs suggest this to be the case. However, it is thought by people far more educated on this topic than you or I that it may be worthwhile gathering 2 more weeks’ worth of data to fully understand the impact. That, in turn, also gives us the opportunity to get a chunk of the main spreaders (under 30s) jabbed so as to slow down any future spreads.
I really don’t know why you keep going back to this.
But the goalposts haven't been moved. Every date they've set for opening restrictions they've kept.
And if the data says no or another mutant strain appears?
we need to let it rip
We need to protect the vulnerable
we need to lockdown for 3 weeks to flatten the curve
we will be allowed to see family and friends at Christmas
we will vaccinate the elderly and vulnerable then we can get back to normality
we wont close schools as they aren't a vector
i could go on.
Changes all the fucking time people have had enough
If the data says no to what?
Stop getting caught up on “mutant strain” nonsense. It’s peddled by shite like the Daily Express who, in the past, have claimed that it would snow continuously for 40 days. Their track record for honesty is rather flimsy.
Completely agree and this is perhaps our way of working out how to live with it. If we could trust our leaders it would be easierHow long do we keep it like this though? It is inevitable that numbers are going to go up as things get back to normal.
School holidays last week, how many kids will have now been tested before going back to school?
We need to learn how to live with it rather than just hiding away from it every time there's a little spike.
They’ve only had enough of being careful until a close friend or family member dies or is hideously Ill long term and then people change their thoughtswe need to let it rip

Fair, but when even NHS trust bosses come out and say 'yep, vaccines working theres a slight uptick but nothing we wouldnt expect and barely any vaccinated people'......why are we even then discussing any delay to June 21st?
Thought this was a nice thread. Not sure it says much new, we were saying in this thread U30s would be the biggest spreaders and more attention should’ve been paid to them.
