Looks like Hancock is finally going to get his comeuppance.

Sacked and charged with negligent manslaughter of hundreds and thousands of people is my hope!

Boris will start throwing all his cronies under the bus soon enough to save his own slimy skin.
He needs to keep Hancock onside until after his grilling.
 
Nice one. Glad you enjoyed it.

Fun fact. The apartments above the Italian restaurant? Eddie Large lived there, and Bottelinos would usually knock his breakfast up for him and Mrs L.

Whats Aqua like? Never been there.
We only had a breakfast butty there mate. That was very nice and the place was very modern and bright and airy. We didn't see an evening menu but it seemed very busy the night before, more so than our Italian. So you'd assume the food was good too.
 
This is the cell (bone marrow plasma cell) which may produce antibodies that could conceivably protect from Covid19 most likely for several years.

Don't blame them in the slightest. This Indian variant does seem highly contagious and they're a bit slower than some European countries in their vaccine rollout.

As long as they don't stop freight travel as they did earlier this year I have no issue with this.
 
Dates are interesting, do the spikes co-incide with reopening outside then indoor hospitality.
If the insinuation is that the spikes were partly caused by those events, then personally I would say a categorical NO to that question.

The two defining events in those spikes are people returning to the UK carrying the Indian variant, to communities where there is a lower take up of the vaccine. You could probably add in the prominence of multi generational housing that has aided the spread of the virus.

Other area's, such as Sefton, that don't have that same combination of factors were able to manage and control the Indian variant.

The rest of the country, the 200 or so areas not so badly affected by the Indian variant, have all seen their infection rates continue to fall despite the re-opening events of April and May. I would say that if it hadn't been for the Indian variant, then the infection rates across the country would most likely have been below 10 now.

Its about weighing the variables mate, what you say is likely true. It’s more than likely the two variables can exist and can exist and contribute. Equally increased socialisation may play a part to. As for the figures it’s worth keeping an eye on. It might not seem like a lot but a change from 2500k cases to 3500 odd is just under a 30% increase and you have to consider the nature of exponential growth. Not ringing alarm bells, but these things need to be kept an eye on after the tremendous progress made.
