I think christmas will kick off it all off again, no matter what this lockdown achieves
So, another lockdown.

Change GP? Your practice sounds a bit inept.

Same people flouting the rules first time, won’t think twice about it 2nd time. They obviously don’t think they’ll get it, or are just too arrogant. Had one of our tenants say to me “it’s a load of #@!*”. Probably the same people who tinker with things they’re not supposed to, because they think nothing bad will happen, or something they’ve worked on is more dangerous.
And he's right!

How so? Please enlighten me.
It has no effect on 80% of people.
One of my work colleagues tested positive. 32 year old.
Didnt have much effect on him.
Another work colleague collapsed pretty badly with some sort of lung infection. Was never tested or treated.
sodthis and itminion and others on here will fill you full of schitt.

So these people are carriers then, a bit like all other viruses?
I expect many of them are.

Watching the live broadcast earlier a few observations.
It was bound to happen, for as long as idiots still out there esp it seems students teenagers in general and some groups like those 150 found crammed in a shisha bar after a 10k fine already.
We are bouncing back from a now established covid not an initial outbreak
What i don't understand is
Why the fck are they allowing schools to stay open, Covid won't accept you need to preserve the sanity of school pupils and not use this as a way to continue to keep channels open to spread to all families. That's a massive door still wide open, which will only allow a sharp rise again once lockdown stops.
The death rate on the graphs should surely now reflect a lower mortality rate over new treatment methods, i may have just missed that detail though.

Very difficult for the government to avoid it, though I think it was a bad idea. If the NHS can’t cope then that’s a reasonable justification, but it makes no sense to keep some things open while others close.
It looks like the 3 tier system had actually started to work.
Death rate is lower, the virus just has more time and is better established.

Seriously?
Yes, the hospital in Truro, the main hospital for Cornwall as of yesterday had 4 cases. I dread to think how many thousands of procedures and appointments will be cancelled because of this, I dread to think how many people will die because the underfunded and understaffed NHS in Cornwall devote all their time keeping 4 people alive.
To put that in perspective, at the previous peak, there were 12 cases in Truro.
I'm sorry but at this point in time, I cannot see a 'stressed' NHS, not that I could last time, Nightingale hospitals anyone?
Too long to explain.
Try thinking this as a basic reason:
This virus is such a killer that the majority of people don't even know they have it.
It kills people who would die if they caught a cold and as statistically true, a very small number of "young and healthy".
As it stands, death rate is below 1%, so a lot less than many other conditions which don't justify any "emergency legislation" (read here: house arrest without having committed any crimes)
In the mean time, criminals convicted of murder are roaming the streets after 2 years from sentence and committing more crimes...
You couldn't make it up.
The NHS is coping because people have been scared into not getting treatment and undergoing routine diagnosis.
Our local A&E and outpatient departments are like ghost towns...
The hidden death toll will never been known, and it will be ensured that any attempt to shine a light on it will be met with a very expensive 'inquiry' that takes many years and only comes up with the usual 'lessons will be learned' bovine excrement...
Politicians don't care about human lives.
They only care about pleasing China and a dozen of powerful people who want to dominate the world.
So if you have symptoms of anything that it's not covid, you must die, possibly alone at home, worse than a dog.

Interesting observation filly, are we going to see the hospital actually put to use as according to the graphs and Londons rapid rise we are there in 2 weeks time.
