3rd March Stats

Glad to Sunderland getting below 50 cases for a few days in a row. Haway the vaccines.
That's to allow businesses to ramp back up, the scheme starts to taper off after June.
Hopefully just a safety net that won't be needed.

I think that easing restrictions will only happen if the areas with the highest levels of cases start to drop too. Leicester and other areas remain higher.

Better late then never Haway the greens
 
I thought the general consensus was that admissions and people in hospital was going to start going down a lot slower and just totter along slowly going down, but it's just falling and falling.

There's the schools effect which will start next week and we'll not know till end of march, but if the bump isn't felt in the admissions and it just keeps going down like it is, then by mid April there's going to very low numbers and the whole restrictions will feel pointless
The Sage Model had us being where we are now in 2 or 3 weeks time. The schools effect should be limited as they already at something like 30% capacity and the virus at low levels and something like nearly half the UK has had vaccine or been infected.
 
Not such good news

It was always going to slow and even plateau.

Once you get to a relative low spot differences will be fractional.

Think of it you training for a 5knrun.. when you first start you will smash your best day in day out but as you get better there will be days when you only beat it by a second or two and other days when you are a little bit slower. But what it means is you are fitter and leaner to handle those poor days and to improve going forward

Accept that, I’m just more cautious than some on here, imo we’ve got to be absolutely certain we have virus under control before the economy is fully opened up

My analogy is a diet, say for example 3 stone overweight.
Start off dieting and exercising, should be fairly straightforward to lose first stone and even second stone, but when get down to nitty gritty it gets much more difficult and a graph of weight over time from being a fairly steep line begins to flatten out simply as its more difficut to shed the less excess weight.

Yeah that is a pretty good analogy.
