    I firmly believe that the excess deaths figures are the clearest indicator of the effects of the pandemic. These figures don't rely on any diagnosis or certification, so I believe they present the truest picture of the situation.

    The UK figure for 2020 now tops 70,000 and is still rising.
    Yeah I agree it’s the most accurate metric. 70,000 people dying is tragic no matter how some people will try to write them off as people who are “old with underlying conditions”.

    I can’t believe some people are still saying it’s just another flu and we shouldn’t be worrying.

    To my non-expert eye it looks as though mass testing could maybe be better performed elsewhere, places like Bridgend, Neath and Blaunau Gwent have more cases and more positive % tests, Merthyr already seems to be dropping

    Seems that we are still making good progress with numbers going down.

    What will determine how successful this was now will be how many more days we continue to see numbers drop, and then how quickly they start to rise again afterwards.

    Have a feeling they will be on the rise again before Novembers out. Think we should have done a month not a fortnight to safeguard Chrimbo..

    Expect to hear good stuff about this, if my sources are correct. Won’t put my neck right in the block as this isn’t a player signing type stuff....but it’s the best yet AND it’s already here and waiting. No logistical or temperature issues.

    Oxford vaccine 70% effective. It uses more traditional technology bit like the flu vaccine and with similar effectiveness.

    So here is a vaccine that is much easier to store and administer but 25% less effective, and it's the one UK has purchased 100m doses of.

    Maybe the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines will be given to the elderly and the Oxford rolled out to the general population.

    All good news and the sooner its available the better

    It will take "a number of years" for NHS waiting times in Wales to recover to pre-coronavirus levels, the organisation's boss has warned.

    I thought you couldn't stand your mother in law and was chuffed that you wouldn't be seeing her this Christmas.

    I would've thought her hobbling around her house and alone would see you reaching for another lager?

    No. I’m buzzing about having a mellow Christmas for the first time ever, not having to leave the house etc....but I don’t wish pain on anyone, even croesy

    Sorry butty.

    I'll make it clear you haven't wished pain on her. She already has it so your conscience is clear.

    I'll admit the thought of not talking to my sister in law makes me feel ecstatic.
