Bit misleading because it refers to the one day Christmas bubble rather than the whole December blow out.
You'd be hard pressed I would have thought to track the effect of one day.
IMO the terrible death numbers we are experiencing now are a combination of the new virus and the month long December party.

What December party?

Apart from Cornwall (basically the only place in Tier 1) the pubs were closed all over the country and indoor household mixing was banned.
 
NHS England Chief Executive Sir Simon Stevens says a patient with coronavirus is taken to hopsital every 30 seconds.

He told the Andrew Marr Show: "The facts are very clear and I'm not going to sugar-coat them, hospitals are under extreme pressure and staff are under extreme pressure.

"Since Christmas Day we've seen another 15,000 increase in the in-patients in hospitals across England, that's the equivalent of filling 30 hospitals full of coronavirus patients.

"Staggeringly, every thirty seconds across England another patient is being admitted to hospital with coronavirus."
 
My line manager has text me and told me to phone my doctor on Monday to find out why I am in the clinically extremely vulnerable group !!

I think work think I shouldn't be in this group and should be at work. It's a shame the letter doesn't say why. But I guess it's the two small opps I had in October. It will takes ages to get through to my doctor as this surgery is being used to give the anti covid19 jabs for surgery all over the area.

Might just tell a white lie and say it's down to the two small skin cancer opps and the camera up my arse ;)

PS we are still waiting for the council to have a covid19 policy or even a risk assessment.
Hi mate
Just been on the govt site it states people specific cancers and those under going treatment are in this category, you really don't need to lie bud, you have been put in this category for medical reasons.
It's staggering that work have this attitude and its amazing they arnt taking covid seriously.
 
My test came back negative but I still can’t stand up without been off balance! Have no idea what’s up so just lay in bed all day even lifting my head off the pillow makes the room spin

just been on the web site as well ! i have also been using Efudix 5 cream which is a chemotherapy cream to kill pre cancer cells on my head. Not sure i should have been out working when using that to be honest as i looked like an extra from the 'Singing Detective' !. But wasnt told to take time off so carried on working
 
For anyone who lost their sense of taste/smell, how long did it last? And did it come back as quickly as it left or more a gradual thing? Not much to enjoy when you're stuck in isolation, meals was at least one thing I looked forward to in a day.

my sister in law is just starting to get hers back 2/3 months later.
