COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[roubaixtuesday]

Well as cases haven't gone down it is clear that lockdown is totally failing.
The reason? Schools are still open.

That's odd, because in your last post you claimed tier 3 was working, and schools were open then too...

I wonder how many people get arrested for crimes they committed years ago if and when we come out of this. I can’t see them destroying all that dna they have taken.

Which DNA would that be?

I'm not wanting to create controversy on purpose.
It's a worldwide pandemic and I know people who have had it.
However a lot of people I speak to and some are in the medical profession say the daily figures are not correct and are grossly exaggerated.
If that is the case it begs the question why? Is something else happening that we dont yet know?

Which members of the medical profession say which figures are exaggerated?

From saliva when they swab your throat

I believe its kids that are spreading this, schools must close.

Conspiracy bollocks.

Interesting.

The test, PCR, which they've conspicuously struggled to get sufficient capacity for, does not sequence or fingerprint human DNA.

It tests for the presence of a particular sequence of viral RNA, a bit like rather than reading a book (DNA fingerprinting), just searching through a leaflet to see if a particular word is there.

Now. If I've understood you correctly, you're suggesting that as well as doing the simple PCR test, the govt is also secretly doing an additional much more complex DNA sequencing test? Even though they're struggling to do the simple PCR testing?

Do I have that right?

They have to close schools now otherwise the lockdown will go on through Christmas. Schools should now close for christmas

Are you ever going to talk about football?? or did you bizarrely join a City forum to solely to spread your own brand of pandemic doom?

I have to call this out. You are wrong. Our kids have been put back so much in the previous lock down. govt has realised this hence the statement that schools will stay open no matter what, especially primary schools where risk is minimal. It's not the kids fault this lockdown could go on longer, just look outside.

Not saying you're wrong but my lad's school is half closed anyway. More than half the kids are self isolating, including him. Some have had to twice already.

Our school, at least, is open in name only. It's a fiasco.

Is that secondary? I can understand that being more problematic

Healthy people wanting to be positive so they can boast. There has been some shit posted over the months about covid. Congrats on posting the best yet.

Trust me, it is a badge of honour for some folks. And the fact they needed to be tested to know they even got it says it all

Tier 3 was working better than lockdown. It seems pretty clear that when you introduce a higher level of lockdown there is a surge of cases as loads of people go out as they're not going to be able do something for a while.
In the meantime kids keep spreading it in school and taking it home and infecting their households.
Schools need to close I'm afraid.

Ones who work in the countryside well away from high population density.
