Guessing based on people’s first name. Love it. So if you are called the German equivalent of Winifred or Mabel you get an invite.

Exactly. It seems they have the same problem we would have here as old fashioned first names are back in fashion so presumably loads of 16 year olds will be invited to be vaccinated.

More resistant to antibodies is going to make it kill more people and be more deadly.

Which is entirely besides the point, the point was that the government is still not taking quick action, it's still given almost a week for people to travel to the UK from a country experiencing a new strain of the virus that could prove worse.

the idea its resistent isn't proven though. from our own studies 0.6% re infection rate is now known. so the fact that 1 person got reinfected by this in brazil is nothing to be worried about just yet.

Not sure what you mean by quick acton, we blocked Travel from south America/Cape Verde and Portugal over it. only people that can travel are UK residents coming home and being told to isolate for 10 days when they do. And we did that before any solid info was out, cant get much quicker than that.

could there be stricter rules on the isolation yep. should be block our won citizens from coming home? personally id say no a this point.

Yes. I thought that when I was thinking of old people’s names. My grandparents names, Wilfred, Doris, Arthur and Florence are all quite popular again.

It's 10% higher than yesterday, that's not good, given we are all in "lockdown".

I agree. The figures look really bad. I’m seeing posts saying basically it’s a positive sign, but the numbers are ridiculously high still.

50+ thousand infections and it’s seen as better....

I wish had not bothered with this as I have now reposted about 10 times and nobody has even noticed despite my saying this lunch time why I was going to be doing this. And updating EVERY time a nation reported new data so the latest post was totally up to date when I posted it.

Not going to bother doing this again as it is time consuming and if people just read a post at the very start and ignore the rest after it then it is meaningless trying to be up to date.

The four nations report at different times in the day so I was updating it every time one did so it was always right at THAT point of the day.
