COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Given how much our numbers are currently falling in Greater Manchester, it would make perfect sense for us to be put in tier 2 in December.

Yeah we all expect that to happen don't we...

We all know the numbers, if we go into tier 3 and the South into tier 2 I won't be sticking to the tier 3 rules, will adopt whatever seems suitable for our current infection rate at that time.

Too many already have this attitude sadly.

Why sadly? What is sad is the way we are forced the live life at the moment.

I reckon it will be tier 3 for the majority with some slight easing in some areas. A couple more weeks of this will give the government the option of this Christmas window they're going to offer people. It will be a carrot and stick scenario. Stick to the rules then see your family

What is much sadder is people not realising that people doing their own thing is the reason we are being constrained.

Explain? If we have less cases, less deaths, a lower R rate but are in a higher tier would you just accept it? Bizarre.

Went to work last week and took the grand total of £120. Spent twenty quid on brews and dinner..

apart from food outlets the high st is on its arse at the moment.

Yet another friend came close to death after not being able to handle lockdown. Two have took their own lives.

Another leision found on wifes brain and we got beat off fucking tottenham.

What a fucking shit week, and not much joy on the horizon.

I would agree. I think tier 1 will disappear, tier 2 for small areas that have had few infections throughout. And the majority in tier 3. And maybe a tier 4 for future spikes In specific areas.

I won't be doing my own thing, I'll be following the guidelines that are suitable for the level we are at. This will be the lowest level to a region with numbers in the same ball park as where I live. What's wrong with that?

Why the race to find Covid-19 vaccines is far from over

Despite the promising news from Pfizer and Moderna, other efforts – which may be even more effective – continue around the world

A long but interesting read on the various vaccines.
