From the Guardian. Apartheid in full swing in Israel

Palestinians left waiting as Israel is set to deploy vaccine​

Israel will begin rolling out a major coronavirus vaccination campaign next week after the prime minister reached out personally to the head of a major drug company. Millions of Palestinians living under Israeli control will have to wait much longer, AP reports.

That's why they're an apartheid state.

Boycott them.

BDS MOVEMENT

The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement works to end international support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians.

As it says: since the beginning of the lockdown. That wont take into account the rise of the last week. It's a crude reading of where Liverpool city region was before lockdown to now.

 

[davek]

Theres been similar outbreaks in cluster areas over the past 2 months, its not a new thing. Merseyside is in a better position than pretty much everywhere else in England so hopefully that will help to prevent a huge rise in January.

I guarantee you that in 2 weeks time this area will be a basket case again. The start was made in the last 7 days or so.

Scotland too. Confuses the hell out of an already confusing situation

What has the english government done thats so great that other countries should follow them?

 

[arminisgod]

Sounds like NI is going full lockdown again.. as in everything shut and people can't travel more than 10 miles and only exercise for an hour a day

Both Liverpool and Knowsley's infection rates have now ticked over 100 cases per 100,000 once again.

On Monday alone the city of Liverpool recorded 100 cases in a single day for the first time in three weeks.


Wirral has seen a sustained recent rise in cases and its infection level of 85.2 cases per 100,000 means that for the first time since September it is no longer the least affected borough in the region.

That title goes to Sefton, which has the lowest infection rate of 78.1 cases per 100,000.

These are the current infection rates for each borough

Halton - 125.2

Knowsley - 107.4

Liverpool - 101.0

St Helens - 122.9

Sefton - 78.1

Wirral - 85.2

Perhaps the most concerning data comes when you look at the week on week changes in infection levels.

Every borough saw an increase in numbers in the week up to Monday, which is the first time that's happened since the peak of the second wave in early October.

Wirral saw the biggest rise, with a 44.5% week on week increase, while Sefton's rate rose by 13%, Liverpool's by 12%, Knowsley by 10%, Halton by 3.8% and St Helens by 2.3%.

Overall the city region saw a 14% week on week infection level increase for the week upto this Monday.

And which group do you blame this time ?

The serfs, the proles, the lager swillers, the pastie guzzlers, the back crack and sack parlours or the money grabbing capitalist restauranteurs ?

All of the above.

All of the above.

Well at least you can`t blame the pubs this time.

 

[Nymzee]

That's a long way away. Well it feels a long time anyway and not a nice thought, but what can we do

4-5 months. Be rubbish but it's not ages (to me).

Some are open.

Numbers don’t matter when they’re decreasing to him.

Now they’re on the rise we won’t hear the end of it.
