You can see from countries across the continent that the explosion in cases is all too often associated with bars and nightclubs. Loud music, proximity, alcohol, and poor ventilation, an unsurprisingly heady cocktail. Cases first appear amongst the younger attendees and then seep back into their communities.

Yes I’ve been following your posts. And I may be wrong and kids may be flocking to nightclubs on Monday night. I just don’t get that vibe. In September, when unis are back, is a different story.
 
So how many deaths will the government allow per day until Restrictions come back in..its not looking good is it
 
I've mentioned this before - it's quite apparent to me, that COVID is likely to wipe out anti-vaxxer sentiment within a few generations.

Herd immunity seems unlikely - and politics prevent many forced vaccination efforts.

And so, in my country, mostly rural Americans, distrustful of science and government and fed a steady stream of bullshit Republican anti-vaccination broadcasts - all opinion, and fact free - are unlikely to get vaccinated. And thus will die off in far greater proportion to those receiving the vaccine.

Further, it seems that COVID isn't at all going to go away - it's going to be with us basically forever.

Three or four generations from now - vaccine skeptics will have mostly died off.

And those believing in science and expert opinion will become more and more prevalent as a percentage of the population.

In three or four generations - a candidate such as Trump would have zero chance of winning election in any state of the USA.
 
FIVE GM boroughs have daily Pop Score rises over 100 today. First time I can recall that.

They include Bury and also Rochdale, Salford and Wigan.

And Oldham up 131 - a number I cannot recall seeing in a GM Pop Score daily rise before.


Bolton up 73 was the smallest with Stockport on another new 2021 high up 83 next nearest.

Bolton clocked up over 200 cases as a result and its highest number in weeks.

But still best in GM. Though Bury just had fewer cases due to its size and was significantly worse than Bolton Pop Score wise

If Bolton keeps going will reach its own highest Pop Score soon where it was back in the start of this DElta wave when Bolton was the worst in the UK.

Now sadly it is the best of the worser whilst back to being almost as bad as then.

As more and more people mix and more places open up all cases will rise, I think the government has said that will be the case. I've no idea where we go from here as a high percentage of the UK have been double jabbed, we have had numerous lockdowns and restrictions, so what now?
 
Cases are just cases but we'll be top day 1 cases in the world very shortly.

If they've got this wrong it doesn't bear thinking about.
 
Actually the North West barely rise today - up just 9 of the large UK rise!

Which is not good news for Greater Manchester I am afraid as that was up 212 - way over expectations.

Tameside was the only GM borough less than yesterday

And every single borough was up on last week - Wigan on a new high and up 104 week to week.
