COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[hammocity]

Tier 3, eh? Shocked, I am!

I put my business into creditors voluntary liquidation this week after almost 29 years - I'll pay nearly £5k for the privilege too.

I've fought like fuck for months but sometimes you have to do it for the good of your health and sanity.

I'm just a one-man director band, christ knows what Manchester and its surroundings are gonna look like four months from now.

As long as London is okay though!

So sorry to hear that, I seem to remember from previous posts you were hamstrung from receiving assistance as you were on a min wage with dividends paid from your limited company. Some people think this is a way to avoid tax, it isn't, quite often with small businesses it's about survival. I have a limited company but fortunately have retained around 70% of my turnover, if it gets worse I'll be joining you, I hope you find a way back when this whole destructive episode is finished, it's devastated lives, families, businesses, still here though so very best of luck to you.

this doesn’t seem to suggest the lockdown or the tier system is working,

 

[Northernstorirs]

He’s the very definition of a ‘wet lettuce’
The fact he’s climbed to such a high position in government is staggering. Even more so that they allow him to go in front of the media.

Most accurate description of him I have read on here.

There's currently 10,000 containers full of over priced PPE (which the tax payer is paying £1m demurrage charges a day for) stuck in port and the chubby bald twat has the audacity to be smug about his announcement.

No doubt once we are fully rid of the virus he will be lined up for some form of honours and a peerage.

Bloody hell mate living in Morrycambee is bad enough but being in tier 3 as well, Christ :)!
Still you can always 'nip' over the border to Cumbria.

pipe down! it's alright here! yeah, i do a bit nipping to them hills

Smug is the word. I always get the impression he is enjoying this.

What’s the first pub you come to over the border ?

Surely it just suggests that the tier system wasn't working.

The lock down has successfully reduced numbers, but to keep them down we need higher tiers than before.

Chris Whitty said at the presser when tiers were originally announced that they were too weak and wouldn't work. So this shouldn't come as any sort of surprise.

Wales data not good -

But there are more catch up cases still be added it would seem. Presumably in England too unfortunately.

Deaths 28

Cases 1251 - high due to the catch up referenced above it seems.

3 wks v 2 wks v last wk v today:

Deaths 36 v 34 v 23 v 28 today

Cases 1272 v 857 v 1048 v 1251 today

Patients 914 v 1066 v 1143 v 1100 today

 

[Healdplace]

Cases 17,555 - likely still some add ons from past days as reported in other nations. But not as many.

Should be back to 'normal' soon.

And this fall is good.

5360 down on 7 days ago.
