All settings - 83 is the announced total, down 36 on yesterday but up 4 on last Wednesday, the 7 day rolling average rises slightly as a result to 65.71. The earlier hospital figure causes a slight rise in that 7 day rolling average to 15.86

With the loosening of lockdown now into its 4th (?) week, in context, these numbers are not an issue, statistically.

Sounds dead callous that, but I reckon you get the drift of what I mean.

See that's the point though. I haven't been trying to provide answers, I have been trying to question the narrative.

For example it all started with me disagreeing that it kills more men than women. You have kinda agreed with me there on that front which was the point I'm making.

It's not about me telling you what's going on, I am merely questioning the narrative. If you don't agree with me then fine, that's not the point of a discussion. It saddens me that rather than actual discuss, even this site is more interested in telling you that you are wrong and cut you off as quick as possible.

My question is, why aren't I allowed to question it given you say scientific bodies are also questioning it? Just because I'm not a scientist doesn't mean I can't question it? I've proven that I'm not pulling theories out the air and there is data out there that support the possible variations on the data.

It's just the issue that I'm not allowed to question it. I'm not allowed to say I disagree with something , as replies in this thread have evidentially shown, if I disagree I'm talking bollocks. Yet taking research and theories (theories not proven may I add) so literal is fine as long as someone doesn't question that.

I'm not posting conspiracy theories here, I'm posting questions essentially . Is that now not allowed?

Our county, San Mateo, had been the only one of the Bay Area counties not on the state watchlist so compared to April a lot of places were open (although not movies, bars or indoor dining). Alas today we got bumped up to the “monitoring list” and if we stay on that for 3 days we’ll be on the state watchlist and further business closures, like hairdressers, are likely.

San Mateo County Added to California's Coronavirus Monitoring List

San Mateo County on Wednesday became the last Bay Area county to be added to the state’s COVID-19 monitoring list, and now businesses and residents face the prospect of rolling back reopenings unless the case count goes down.

Hope your keeping safe and weren't hoping for a hairdressers appointment! My son got his first normal haircut today (as in the wife didn't do it)

Think I preferred it with his big wavy blonde wig.
 
Had a massive argument with my parents tonight about holding our baby, I did know it would come at some point.

They have pretty much been living life like it's normal for weeks but claiming they aren't. They are yet to hold our baby (born in March) but will be taking a test on Friday and hoping to hold at the weekend.

I asked them to not to do much this week and my mum flew off the handle saying we were treating them like lepers etc. Since the other week, they have been for a haircut, caravan holiday, weekend in Windsor but apparently they didn't go near people so thats fine.

Her friend has recently held her granddaughter but obviously everyone is different.

All my friends (around 30yr old ish) understand but they are the classic 50-60 Tory voters. I can see how they are taking it personally but obv thats not the case at all, we don't want it to be like this.

My gf's parents isolated 10 days in March and have don't nothing at all since (they are building their house so it's not been that difficult for them), she had a c-section and didn't know what the recovery would be like. So nows thats the new argument but absolutely no way could they do that as they are very social people. They were visiting in the garden in March when they shouldn't have even been doing that.

It was meant to be a nice day, i was going to cook and stuff but no idea whats going on now.

Rough position for you to be in mate. Most important thing at this moment in time though is the wellbeing of your son/daughter. There's no right or wrong way of being protective in normal times let alone these times we find ourselves in.

I'd say (I don't want to sound too rude here so don't take it the wrong way) your parents need to respect yours and your partners wishes of how to do things and what's expected of them under the current circumstances to make it easier and safer for all.

Bloody tough being a parent at the best of times so don't be kicking yourself thinking your doing wrong when what you are doing is what's best.

Cheers. It makes you doubt if you are doing the right thing but I think we are.

I'm quite surprised it went this far but I think a lot will be emotions that will hopefully settle.

We had two miscarriages within the last few years and my gf has had TB (reduced/weak lung capacity for life) but all of that seems to have gone out the window.
