Misrepresented stories like this, have become the life blood for some of the press.

Scaring people sells and gets clicks.

Sorry, what stories?

Hospital figures - 27 deaths were announced today, nothing to compare from yesterday but it is down 2 on last Monday’s late revealed total of 29. 12 deaths were in English hospitals, again nothing to compare from yesterday and no figures available from last week. The 7 day rolling average falls to 93.71

All settings - for the 28 day cut off, 45 deaths were announced today, down 23 on yesterday and down 3 on last Monday. The 7 day rolling average falls to 112.71

For the 60 day cut off, 48 deaths were announced today, down 33 on yesterday and down 1 on last Monday. The 7 day rolling average falls to 131.71

https://inews.co.uk/news/covid-lock...reak-restrictions-hospital-admissions-1185533 - this article is implying that if admissions stay the SAME, various restrictions will come in. Potentially social distancing THIS month

lots of kids and older people in hospital with SV, hopefully this trial is successful and then can get adults vaccinated to protect kids

I’m saying any future ‘lockdown’ will be virtually impossible to enforce in the Uk now.
Not that the last ones were enforced properly in the first place mind..

A 2 week lockdown does absolutely nothing. The short november one last year didn't achieve a thing and that was longer than 2 weeks.

If it comes in, it's all winter they just won't say so beforehand
If the NHS is in danger in October, imagine what it'll be like in January. No point doing some charade of giving us freedom for a few weeks, if its that bad they just need to be honest

Agree. If they start a lockdown it will end up lasting until spring again.

As someone who has behaved impeccably throughout there's not a chance I am doing another lockdown.

Neither will the vast majority of the population either.

Each to their own but that literally makes no sense.
