Coronavirus update - NO MORE RESTRICTIONS

Re: Coronavirus update - LIVING IN OMICRON TIMES

Any limiting contacts will have some affect.

Is it therefore fair to assume that once the dust settles Wales’ stats will look better than England’s? The stats which matter - serious illness.

Well there will eventually be an enquiry into the handling of the pandemic.

Many factors will be looked at.

Low vaccination rates in areas , appalling disregard of rules by ministers giving a us and them attitude , furlough availability , late lockdowns , delays of resticting international travel , PPE , previous austerity and whether the NHS was sufficiently funded and staffed for a pandemic and the individual actions of each parliament.

Also where the higher death rates are and where. Care Homes , poorer more built up areas.?

This is exactly the kind of data that's relevant. The media's obsession with numbers of +ve cases stems from the early days of the pandemic.

Unvaccinated in Intensive Care

Natural selection in action. I've lost count of the number of posts highlighting this including the myths about age etc. I think that moving forward, we should move away from politicians fronting public health campaigns. They're unqualified, inappropriate, and misleading.

Edit: not a critique of your post btw - it's really interesting and glad you posted

If I’m being thick then I apologise.

What I see here is that Wales’ hospitalisations per million were well below England’s, then the Boxing Day restrictions came in and they’ve gone up ever since.

Now England is going down and Wales is going up.

Time for crowds back. I really dont see the justification on us playing behind closed doors.

Re: Coronavirus update - LIVING IN OMICRON TIMES

Nevermind that people are losing their livliehoods and businesses, the cases that have a mortality rate of 0.3% are dropping.

Yay.

Not holding out much hope reading this.

The obsession of the 6 Nations as well.

Why dont the journalists ask about the games we have before then. Obsession with the commencement of the annual 2 month piss up.

Because like it or not the money the six nations brings to the local economy dwarfs all the other games and is of significant importance to the Cardiff hospitality trade. I imagine the six nations taking place with with / without crowds and other restrictions in pubs, restaurants.etc will have an effect on wether some businesses go under or not.
