Good news on cases. Rest of it looks to be getting worse sadly. Next week will be interesting after the kids have been back over a week

Kids been back a week and a half here in cz, 3 rounds of testing and increase has been minimal, the authorities are surprised. Cases gone up from 250 to 400+

It is good news if it’s not just a blip…it’d fit with some of the modelling scenarios but I guess we’ll know better in the next two weeks.

That’s a positive.

 

[BumbleBee]

Doesn't appear to be the steep increase in serious cases that we've seen in pre-vac waves.

North East seems bad. Big increase here.

It's a quite a big increase like?
60%. If that happens here it'll be an extra 25k cases or so...

Proportionally that seems like a large increase. Not number wise but %

 

[Frankel]

As has been posted on the other threads, it’s the unvaccinated making a massive contribution to these figures.

Selfish wankers.

 

[humbug]

Net gain of 13 people in hospital over the last 24 hours.

Cases decreasing despite massive increase in testing.

Kids back to school and mass attendance events happening every weekend including open pubs and nightclubs.

It’s been over for months.

They need to knock these stats on the head but can’t because they won’t be able to justify a lockdown IF it goes tits for whatever reason.

i sort of agree but there are folk who like to see the stats (including me)
well, not like as in like the figures but want to see the figures. i'm sure people know what i mean.

What would make you change your mind about it being over?

 

[Lambchops]

That’s a positive.

They're expecting a rise but hospitalisations are still <100 so quite happy. Over 60% double jabbed but over 75% in hospital unvaccinated

It's a quite a big increase like?
60%. If that happens here it'll be an extra 25k cases or so...

Pro rata it's about 2300 cases you're at 40k?

Proportionally that seems like a large increase. Not number wise but %

Its not the school's it's the border cities where the increases are which is understandable as cross border workers are exempt from testing etc

Lockdown as it was last March.

The only thing in our life that has changed is that it’s a hassle going on holiday.

There is nothing else COVID related that is different to last February. Even isolation/stay away laws for certain illnesses, such as diarrhea for food handlers, were in place prior to then, so that’s not even new - a new disease has been added to the list.

Plenty has changed at my workplace.

 

[Droderick]

North East seems bad. Big increase here.

I wonder if different areas are going through a spike at different times, so we see a bit of a surge then leveling off, maybe the unvaccinated in these areas get whacked, then there's a drop.

 

[Brian Griffin]

Plenty has changed at my workplace.

There are no restrictions on our lives and everything could be as it was before - apart from testing for holidays.

No restrictions isn't the same as nothing has changed.

Plenty has changed for plenty of people.

I agree that personal circumstances may have changed - but in terms of what we can and cannot do in our lives, everything is back as it was in Feb 2020 - apart from holiday swabbing.

I know you like to spin a positive story but let’s be realistic here. 1st August there were 5,900 in hospital. Little over a month of warm weather later we have 2,200 more people in hospital. With it predicted to get worse as the weather changes. In the last couple of hours hospitals in Cornwall have cancelled surgeries as they are overwhelmed.

There are quite a few challenges, it’s pretty much universally agreed the vaccine effectiveness is waning. The person who devised the Astra Zeneca said earlier it’s almost inevitable at some point there will be a worst mutation then Delta.

Im pretty much back to normal now for the time being but it would be naive to assume we are out the woods.

You can just argue life needs to go on as normal without spinning a yarn that the pandemic is done as all the experts are saying it evidently isn’t.
