COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[The Northern Baptist]

I have been told GM will be put into T4.

Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Cheshire and Warrington into Tier 4

Liverpool into Tier 3. Inexplicably

I have been told GM will be put into T4.

As long as the rest of the NW is too - including Liverpool - that makes sense.

But if we get another patchwork quilt of infection and death low spots for idiots to go off to and infect then it will just drive mass uncooperation due to the perceived unfairness.

A national lockdown was the right and unarguably fair way and really suppress this mess.

But sense does not come easily to today's politicians if votes are at stake.

So they will do what they think is popular not what they think is safe.

Until they get forced to do it anyway far too late.

I really hope they surprise me and I am wrong.

As expected they are idiots who deserve everything they get coming to them after this is over.

They stick to ideology and do things that drive disobedience from the perceived unfairness.

And they have so many different rules now nobody knows what they are or can be bothered to find out.

These tiers are a ridiculous mess that is never going to work because it incites all the ones frustrated enough to abuse a system that is unenforceable across borders in large populations.

Liverpool might think they have just got lucky. In fact they will see many of their citizens get sick and die and wake up too late to what a mistake this was to be the teacher's pet.

My big concern beyond the next few weeks is that we mistake the cessation of the virus' spread as spring comes for herd immunity. I really don't fancy being here next winter. I get the feeling they might be hoping people will think everything's gone well, then just ignore it when it comes back. We need parliament back ASAP so we can get some scrutiny on the issues.

Is it not that Liverpool is being treated slightly differently because of the increased testing trial thing going on there?

Seems to me this 12 week lag in doses is to solve the blair question and give as many people as possible one dose.

Sprint didn’t bring a cessation in 2020 though. Do you mean summer?

 

[JamesMCFC]

Great. Another few weeks without the gym.

Also just a guess, but presume there hospitals are not under the increased pressure other tier 4 areas are in
