Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Not having a go here Legs, but given we're having a heatwave, I imagine that won't have helped.

From people just being outside more and having accidents, to people suffering in the heat, to then people going out and being on the lash all day in 30 degree heat

It absolutely will have had an impact but ambulances have been on the edge well before the heatwave and COVID restrictions being eased

You have to wonder how the NHS is ever going to get back on its feet. Was in a bad position prior to the pandemic and now its going to struggle badly. Even if covid wasn't a thing there would be major issues this winter.

Another problem thats came from tory austerity but o well, at least its not communist Corbyn etc etc.

Iirc a lot of nursing staff were European so impacted by Brexit too and know this is only one case but still just so wrong

58% of staff vaccinated is horribly low

Went to the 'pub' (a bottle shop with a few benches) and it was it was still table service etc but it definitely seemed a bit more relaxed and flexible which was nice.

let's face it too Pete, the government are having the push for herd immunity right now too.

Get the young 'uns infected now and top it up with the second jab seems to be the goal.

Hospital figures - 74 deaths were announced today, up 59 on yesterday and up 36 on last Tuesday. 73 deaths were in English hospitals, up 62 on yesterday and up 36 on last week. The 7 day rolling average rises to 38.14

All settings - for the 28 day cut off, 96 deaths were announced today, up 77 on yesterday and up 46 on last Tuesday. The 7 day rolling average rises to 48.86

For the 60 day cut off, 109 deaths were announced today, up 86 on yesterday and up 49 on last Tuesday. The 7 day rolling average rises to 57.43

Worth nothing, before people start losing their minds over the numbers, that Tuesday data is a catch-up on up to 4 days worth of data, especially with hospitals

Just did 30 min walk with the dog, needed to get out and stretch my legs – didn't see anyone and stuck to just round the block.

It's coming and going in waves, ibuprofen seem to help a lot more than paracetamol though.

2-3 weeks we'll see the impact of 'Freedom day'. Lockdown till Nov/Dec.
