whats doing my head in is that where i live will likely go into localised lockdown. There's been tonnes of people having fun and doing what they want, and i'll head back into lockdown having done nowt. So fuck it, i'm throwing a massive party.

Wales reports 6 new deaths (still struggling as you can see) and 32 new cases.

Last week that was 8 deaths and 47 new cases

So the UK hospital total today is 57. The UK total was 64 this time last week.

The all settings total last Wednesday was 154.

Cases from Wales, Scotland and N Ireland today come to 41.

It was 58 from the same countries last Wednesday.

Not sure you can do three households,especially indoors,assume you will be taking masks off to eat and drink ?

It'll be outdoors, I am working off the principle that if pubs can open then with proper precautions it'll be fine.

Outside is good then,some of the reasoning from the gov confuses me,especially the wedding ones

176 all settings deaths. A rise on last week. And 21 up on yesterday. Which is certainly a concern.

Think we can say now that the fall has slowed to the point it may even be in danger of heading upwards again.

That total is exactly the same number as reported a month ago on 4 June (though that later increased by 1).

Meanwhile, haven't we promoted the readily available Dexamethasone?

Sources in Public Health England (PHE) and the Department for Health told Sky News they are "working collaboratively", focusing on the areas in England where coronavirus cases are rising.

As a result, local lockdowns like the one in Leicester could be implemented in "just days".

Clearly plateaued recently. The weekly comparisons seem to be often up now, if not changed at all. Not quite sure (and im not trying to be negative here, promise) how anyone can expect it to go down with interactions about to dramatically increase, even with people following guidelines. If anything, its surely going to go up.
