Scosha Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Just now, D.V.T. said: What’s with the massive spike in the last couple of days? Nice to the see the hospital number stalling. I would imagine a huge chunk is those who were in London. I was down there and have tested positive although all my mates who I was with have tested negative. I’ve had one dose of Pfizer but Covid has knackered me the past 3 days. Hopefully it’ll get better soon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another win for 'public health' and 'the science'! Also, that Stephen Reicher is clearly a VL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) The chickens are returning home to roost and winter is coming for these isolationist nutters. Quote Posted at 12:15 Sydney under new restrictions as cluster grows Copyright: Getty Images Drive-in Covid testing sites were flooded with people in Sydney's Bondi beachImage caption: Drive-in Covid testing sites were flooded with people in Sydney's Bondi beach For most of the year, the people of Sydney, Australia's largest city, have enjoyed almost no restrictions on daily life. But a sharp case rise in the past week has prompted authorities to reinstate distancing rules. Today, authorities - already concerned about the "extremely contagious" Delta variant - have reported 16 new infections, which brings the cluster there to 37 cases. Now the city's 5.3 million residents will have to wear masks indoors, and many will be banned from travelling out of the city. "Please abandon non-essential activities, please don't attend social gatherings unless you absolutely must," says New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian. You can read more on the story here.

This is a Pavlov's Dog reflex to the last 15 months when rising cases always meant bad news. Then you read down...and it isn't all that bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Not a peep from anyone in the Scottish Government at Holyrood or SNP group at Westminster today, including the transport secretary and spokesperson, respectively. Good to see the travel and tourism industry finally kicking up a stink, though, especially together with the news of UEFA hangers on allowed in for the football hassle free.

Almost definitely explains our case increases. The 30-40 people that tested positive- did they proactively get a LFT down after they went to London or did they do it based on symptoms? I wonder if going to London has meant that people have got LFTs when they otherwise wouldn't have . And they may already have had CoVID before going.

They may be about to be another one down as one of their daughters dates a boy who was in london and subsequently tested positive, they told her he wasnt allowed round the house for 10 days but she snuck him in regardless and they now await the obligatory positive test for her. Shite. Seems a lot of positives are coming from schools too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
