Coronavirus (2021) thread

Seems some recalculation of past deaths is the reason for the number today being lower than we had from the four nations.

You said he was giving us the nod that returning after mid term was not happening.

Hopefully returning by Easter, is tipping us the nod, or he would of said hopefully before that, Easter latest, couldn’t be clearer. Find another post to pester.

I have a question to anyone who has had a home test on an in person test (the full ones that take a day or 2 for a result) - did your negative result say this

"Your coronavirus test result is negative. It’s likely you did not have the virus when the test was done."

I've put "likely" in bold, as it is different than the test result i had in December (and August) which said

"Your coronavirus test result is negative. You did not have the virus when the test was done"


So i'm just trying to check have they official changed their wording this year to "likely" rather than a definite "you did not", to maybe cover themselves...? Or, was there something in my test that could have made them not totally sure?

I was quite unwell for a week with a fever, sore throat, diarreah at the start too (monday, did the test wednesday), and complete exhaustion and dizzyness. Feeling mostly better now, but trying to judge.. I doubt it was that, as i feel i'd be more ill if it was, but it was a scary feeling, looking at my 4 year old worried i could die, i felt that ill on one of the days in particular. I had the flu jab in October btw.


Anyone with January tests out there? Thank you.

Ive had a walk in test in December and another a couple of weeks ago. Got almost identical to message to yours both times - saying likely rather than did not

another good drop to Same time last week and deaths thankfully lower as well

Yes, I read that too...hence my curiosity in this whole area.
I know I'm Negative, think it's O but might be A. I had to have the usual injection to counter this when I gave birth to my son.
Need to ask my GP at some point.

Same here.
I seem to remember in the dim and distant past being disappointed that it was the common one, but then again I may have dreamt it as I really haven’t a clue.
I should ask my GP as well, although getting through to them is like breaking into Fort Knox.

Last 4 Sundays:-

How fast do you want in the middle of winter - peak virus spreading time?

You are right , my sept one said did not , my dec one said likely not , maybe a truer statement given the false positive and negatives that occur
