Care homes with cases. Same for the 133 in Northern Ireland.

Care homes with at least one proven case. Which is often soon more than one, of course.
Staff or residents? My daughters place has just had another outbreak of false positives amongst the staff. I'd very much doubt it's an isolated incident especially since it's the second one in the last two months.
 
Whilst that is true there WERE 1000 not previously reported deaths yesterday.

It is a set number that will always stay true and adds to the overall total which is also accurate.

The day to day actual deaths change every day often for many weeks.

So you cannot report them on the news.

Its been debated in here in the past and the bottom line is whilst it should be clarified what they usually say is not actually false.

Unless as they sometimes do they slip and say 1000 died yesterday. That is untrue. But 1000 new deaths were reported yesterday is true.
They said more than 1,000 died in the past 24 hours rather than reported
 
Stepped on scales today and not exactly shocked to learn I lost 29 pounds in four weeks.

Gonna take a while to get that back.

I've lost something more, not sure what.

Probably a sense of my own mortality for the first time in my 46 years.
Holy shit Tolm, 29 pounds? You really must have been hit hard. Just get better; you will slowly get it back. After all, you are still a young 'un, despite this. ;)
 
Gov UK have added today a new vaccinations page with all the data and graphs week to week. Across the UK and all 4 nations.
 
Popped into my workplace office block at lunchtime to get stuff to work from home and pick up post.

First lockdown it was empty.

Today, as busy as it is on any normal day, full of people mingling in communal areas.

Also noticed the roads are no different than any other time.

This will go on longer than March as no one appears to be listening to the current restrictions.
Been on the road today, Middleton, Sandbach, Leigh and a few GM areas later in the day. Definitely less busy on the roads this morning (didn't go until 10am so can't comment on rush hour), motorways discernibly quieter. Also spoke to a few people who told me more staff have been furloughed this week. Been past a few schools, all open and enough vehicles on the car parks to raise eyebrows. Teachers seemingly being asked to go beyond the line of duty.
 
My friend was nearly a month after that and missed weeks of food deliveries because of it.

That was the day Boris lost her vote as she had voted for him but was given all kinds of waffle as to what went wrong in this 'rare' error.

I assume rare in this context as in the sense of world beating rarity of occurrence.

aka far too common.

No mate my wife is she has not got one yet, last time they didn't send the letter she had to phone up about it to get it confirmed. She teaches Maths the school head has mandated by email all staff go in regardless if they can WFH or not basically contravening government guidelines. No wonder things are in the state they are. She had a hospital appointment today the doctor couldn't believe it. Thinking of calling local newspaper.
I am really poorly at the minute and it would be nice to get work of my back. I might just get a sick note off doctor, then hand in the letter when it comes.

Thanks for your replies.
 
Wife's doc told her yesterday that government are full of shit with their vaccine roll out announcements and what he sees is nothing like their spin.
Total opposite of what a NHS trust assistant director of comms told me yesterday. He told me that getting enough vaccine made,patient lists and vaccine systems are working well right now, hitting daily jab capacities easily. He doesn't see a problem with 2m jabs per week being achieved very soon.
