Drakefords announcement Friday

Re: Drakefords announcement Friday

Nurse just visited mum to give her booster jab

She hasn't heard anything

Said most likely thing to happen was a tightening up of some restrictions and no entry etc to those not jabbed to bring us into line with Europe.

If the tory government are having parties then the rest of the country is hardly likely to agree to restrictions

How's it going to be policed ?

If I was running the country I would try and implement a lockdown even if I knew it was going to be ignored by some .

Re: Drakefords announcement Friday

Agreed.

I don't really understand the bashers' logic. Clearly if Drakeford institutes more safety measures it will make him unpopular. So, what would be his motivation? Apart from an abundance of care for public health in a global pandemic. He's doing the correct thing; listening to the science and acting promptly.

Of course he is but it won't be listened to by all

Yep, all sounds fairly sensible based on how this variant seems to be ripping through countries for fun

What's the R rate for rumours doing the rounds these days?
Are they doubling every 2 or 3 days just like Omicron?

Wouldn't surprise me at all if more restrictions were brought in, but now that we're 2 weeks into this new wave, there should be more data on hospitalisations and deaths, but we're not seeing anything yet.

At last! Someone with a plan!

The new variant seems to be so infectious that those sort of restrictions will barely affect the number of cases this time. The vast majority of people are going to be fine, but anyone who is high risk should probably start shielding ASAP.

You forgot schools. remote learning in New Year

Schools staying open I heard, damage done to kids being home is pretty scary.

Table service in pubs will make **** all difference. It's just "something must be done" politics.

Re: Drakefords announcement Friday

Rule of 6 in pubs.....

This is not a criticism of you in any way, but it amazes me how quickly phrases like 'the rule of six' have become standard jargon. It's horseshit. But then the whole shebang is a load of horseshit.
