COVID-19 — Coronavirus

I think some religions might just ignore the regulations.

I blame the Catholics.

Why do they allow places of worship to remain open in tier 4 ?

Fear of upsetting people, I imagine.

it's crazy, on the day we send kids back to school , the numbers from xmas/new year will be huge.

Im just hoping its one of the goverments plans that they change at the last minute, really concerned about sending our two back in this current climate

We've made the decision tonight not to send our daughter back in. Luckily she's a good kid who loves to learn so she's not a problem at home regarding work. Think I'll have more issues with the school.

I wish they didn’t let the journalists ask questions during these briefings, they’re all idiots!

learnt many months ago to switch off as soon as they say questions from journos.

the public ones are more sensible

Just shows how far the media has fallen & how inept it's reporters are on the whole.
Most are just clickbait cnuts nowadays

Here are the differences between LONDON and NORTH WEST in hospital patients and ventilators in past day

LONDON Patients up 414 to 5371. That is 1812 up in 7 days.

Ventilators up 43 to 599. That is up 199 in 7 days.



NORTH WEST Patients up 6 to 2352 (3019 FEWER than London) That is DOWN 54 in 7 days.

Ventilators DOWN 4 to 171. That is up 18 in 7 days.


Two months ago when much of the NW (except Merseyside) was in strict measures and GM had been since July London was not.

Then they had under 1000 in hospital and under 100 on ventilators.

Now both areas are in the same measures. Despite going in opposite directions.

And Merseyside isn't.

Hard to see science is driving these decisions.

What's the point of moving into tier 4 when tier 4 hasnt worked ?

We don't know yet TBF.

The first places in tier 4 were only xmas eve IIRC (hard to keep up...) so the effect on cases will only just start to be visible.

I’ve got a lot of time for Jonathan Van-Tam. He seems like he knows his stuff, like he’s good at his job, he explains things well, has a good voice to listen to and just seems like a top bloke!

Can someone help me with the rules please.
My girlfriend is in a tier 4 area (northwich)
I am Trafford (tier 4). We both live alone and have formed a support bubble.
I wanted to spend NYE with her tomorrow evening. I've looked at the rules and I'm not sure whether I am allowed to go.
It mentions if you form a support bubble you can meet am I correct?

You are.

if there was no xmas day/new year it would give a fairer reflection also

ex in laws who are in a dire health condition allready now both confirmed got it after the ex’s Christmas Day party. Hope it was worth it.

But you're going to have to deal with any angst and grief from your children. Horrendous.

Worcestershire welcomes Tier 3. Just eating my last restaurant meal.

 

[Del_Bosque]

Tbh only difference for me is no haircut and no gym between tier 3 or 4

never went to anything other than a food shop anyway

hopefully everyone over 70’s had their jabs by middle of Feb and March time can be a lot less restrictive
