New variant' of coronavirus identified

[Barry]

No it ain't Pappy.

For the 7 day period ended 1/12/20 the UK fatalities from Covid 19  were  3216

For the 7 day period ended 8/12/20 the UK fatalities from Covid 19  were  2982

For the 7 day period ended 15/12/20 the UK fatalities from Covid 19 were 2875

WITH a positive test in the last 28 days, not FROM C-19. Huge difference.

Yesterday, 16th of December, daily deaths were  612, so I suspect the next weekly number to be 4000.

Is that all smurfy, only 4000 I bet you can do better than that.

Well, I keep hugging the grandkids, when providing childcare, of course, and will continue to do so.
I am still capable of typing. 

Why shouldn't you? We are all free agents and  if your grandkids are fit that's your judgement. My little one year old has had a dreadful cold that he passed to his mum and neither of them have been near me as a result. Not because of covid fears but normal consideration so that I didn't get it.

Really?  It is still around 4000 a week. Just wait until January after hordes of potential plague carriers have been to Christmas family gatherings.

I think there is starting to be a recognition that Christmas is worth putting on hold this year. A lot of people that I am in contact with are abandoning family plans as it becomes clear that numbers are rising. I think the government are realising that rules get broken and the heavy hand is pointless. There must be a point where people realise that in the final analysis it is down to all of us.

Drakeford is a grinch, Sturgeon is the grinch in chief.

well, you asked us to stand up for your families and Christmas be prepared for the circus. Just remember one day we might need one back when voting time comes around.

Except that they are saying:
Meet the new strain, same as the old strain.
No change to anything, just ramping up the fear amongst the plebs.

The only fear is the Covidiots endangering the lives of others.

Anyway, who knew a new strain would pop up in December. Shit happens no Christmas isolation or else.

I am basing what will happen at Christmas on the well documented and reported behaviour of millions since March,

If you say so Commissar Smurf.

[papasmurf]

Perhaps you don't, some of us try to see the best in people though and recognise that there will be a point if we haven't arrived there already, when society pressure will prevail.

toots hes an exaggerater.

A few idiots misbehaving and ignoring rules now and again becomes "millions" in smurfs world.

He lives in a small village in cornwall , an area smaller than lothian with a popualtion smaller than glasgow , in remote south west england and becuase of the headlines in the very newspapers he says he hates and which according to pappy spread out misinformation , he can tell us from under his bed what millions across the uk are doing.

I know Thomas but I am ever hopeful!    (I just love the Christmas hats)
