Over a thousand new cases in Wales for a third consecutive day after it was below that level earlier in the week - that doesn't look good in terms of the effectiveness of the firebreak, but I suppose it's too early to draw too many conclusions.

Down under a thousand in Wales today - surprised by the lower Cwm Taf Morgannwg figure, I wonder if that's got anything to do with the testing situation in Merthyr?

the daily figure is too erratic to read much into it, the graphs are more useful, it looks as though we may have plateaued, or be coming down very graduallyIMG_20201122_162622.jpg
What you say is true for deaths figures, but the day of the week it is doesn’t seem to be that much of a factor when it comes to new cases.
Great news about the Oxford vaccine but can anyone please explain why the results differ with 1.5 doses and 2 doses? What are the mechanics? And which technology will be best?
Gonna have the vaccine anyway, but I am extremely curious about it
A difficult one for us mortals....
One idea is the immune system rejects the vaccine, which is built around a common cold virus, if it is given in too big an initial dose.
Or a low then high shot may be a better mimic of a coronavirus infection and lead to a better immune response.

Deaths in Wales still on the rise. The highest weekly total since early-May apparently.
Agreed, it's certainly conceivable that many of those deaths were people who caught the virus pre firebreak.
Just under 600 new cases in Wales today with more than two thirds of them in Blaenau Gwent and only 37 in Cardiff. It was a low number of tests compared to normal though, but is that because there weren't as many people requiring them?

If the talk about following the bufoon and his crew is correct then we will be in teir 3 soon.
The vast majority of pubs could be closed until Spring.
If Wales is to have a tier system as in England doesn't the fact that you think Wales will soon be in tier 3 suggest that, despite the measures taken, Wales is amongst the worst infected areas?
It also suggests that Wales have been no more successful than England in managing the pandemic.
Allowing a limited number of people back into football grounds, opening pubs and restaurants for food in England under the tier system etc is asking for trouble as it is inevitable the number of cases and deaths will rise dramatically by the end of January. Isn't the relaxation of the rules in Wales after the arguably too short firebreak the reason why the cases in Wales are high and a reason why under the tier system they will continue to rise.
Some great positive news is so welcome with stuff like procurement and finding of vaccine , care home instant testing for Xmas , the trial in Liverpool , footy fans back in some grounds albeit 4k max , Xmas UK wide approach to Covid an family get togethers .
I agree the vaccine is great news.
I'm not delirious about a UK wide approach to Covid, football fans in the grounds nor the family get togethers without anyone having the vaccine.
In fact anything that blonde bouffanted clit advocates I'd suggest giving it a massive swerve.
Seems like they are saying we will all probably have to suffer in January and more people will die etc, just to sit around a table and get drunk for a day or two...madness. We’ve all waited this long, what’s a few more months?
As Mark Drakeford said yesterday, people will celebrate anyhow and better to give a set of rules. No doubt the 4 nation discussions would have considered the impact on spread of virus and death rates, and concluded that it was a trade off. Some trade off!!
But it's not just Christmas, there's Boxing Day sales followed by New Year celebrations. This period could push Covid into orbit.
