Scary how many people believe this stuff, look at the comments

I love the fact that a conspiracy of that nature, at the upper echelons of world power, will be referred to so explicitly in a memo.

Surely they should change the rules about having to isolate if she's literally just been positive? That doesn't seem to make a lot of sense.

Fully agree mate. I’m not sure if this is government or trust specific guidance, either way it’s resulting in chronic staff shortages throughout the hospital

The fact it is in English should be enough to make people think. Maybe not, people are thick as, well you know the rest.

How thick would you have to be to be half as thick as a thicko that believes this [Poor language removed].

Cases and admissions down

Deaths up

Did not see that

By how much??

Think that’s about right. 24-48 hours for a cold

Hopefully it only puts as many people in hospital as a cold does and we can forget about draconian measures...

Only very slightly I think - but most people were expecting a huge number of cases today - It's almost identical to yesterday (90,629)

Got to remember, deaths will come from infections 2-3 weeks previous (at least) and deaths are always lower on a Monday.

So those deaths will mostly be down to Delta infections.

Wouldn't it be great if it peaked off this week... (I don't think it will but you never know)

Obviously actual infections is a lot higher but no death or hospital admission is being missed if it's with covid

Cases aren't rising as much as anticipated. I expected cases to be well over 125,000 today.

I'm starting to think we won't see the predicted 10,000 hospitalisations per day.

Is this an example of where sarcasm font would be needed?

 

[BlueToff]

It's obviously very early but it's almost like the UK actually does have a lot of immunity in the population...

is obviously important to remember there is almost certainly well over a million people with Omicron mind, and most just don't know it
