Billy Jean King Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Being suggested that it could be May before pubs in England are allowed to reopen. Surely May would be a plus for stuff like pubs given where we are right now. You honestly can't see it being any sooner with the current mood music. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this realistic? And yes I know it's dependent on "supply". No and I think because of supply issues they have said all over 80s by Feb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 What is causing such a jump? There are less people out and about than in summer where there were barely any cases day upon day. Over here there were weeks at a time where each day was something like 200 or 300 yet we've recently seen 40000 in one day in Germany. Is it simply down to more testing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks down to the new variant being much more infectious, and more testing probably. Edited January 11, 2021 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Again, could one miner kill another by walking past them five feet away?I'm sorry but the risk of that is absolutely fucking minute. If you want to eliminate risk based on such micro probabilities as that then we would end up inside for the rest of our lives. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know you were an epidemiologist, you might want to get that information out there because all the world's eminent epidemiologists and virologists are saying its a very significant risk indeed. Where did you do your PhD? And actually the idea is Covid won't be around for the rest of our lives, in significant numbers anyway, so your point is, politely, moot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks down to the new variant being much more infectious, and more testing probably.There is little point obsessing over daily numbers. The last few days have shown a clear lag, this is just catching up. Things didn’t deteriorate yesterday. We’ve at a minimum stabilised in terms of new cases, and likely peaked. That’s about all we can tell at the moment. It’s still far too many cases on a daily basis and there’ll be Scottish hospitals under their worst strain yet in the next week or two even if new cases are falling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by my neck of the woods at least, there's almost certainly a laziness factor too. Every time I've been to or passed my local corner shops of late, I've seen somebody without any face covering (pretty much exclusively men in their ~40s) which is a very different situation to Lockdown 1.0. On my last visit, one maskless guy was standing right next to his workmate at the till, munching away on a sandwich. Unless I missed some massive wave of asthma, more folk evidently just can't be arsed abiding by the rules this time around. I can only imagine that these folk have some form of underlying "they don't know what they're doing and making it up on the fly, so why bother" attitude.
