12 week lockdown after Christmas is the mumbling coming out of the Bay...
Sorry but where has this 12 weeks come from? That would be catastrophic.
It's an acknowledgement that, while the Welsh Government started the firebreak at the right time, they ended it far too soon. It was a foul up but I'm sure the virus figures will also escalate in England after Xmas.
Today's news is covering a story that the Welsh virus figures have been under reported due to a statistical omission.
I agree with that - for me, the WAG did a decent job under the circumstances up until the end of the Firebreak and then it all seems to have gone wrong and, frankly, given the 11,000 unreported cases you mention (see link)

announcing a new, strict, lockdown, which is not for a set time, that starts three days after Christmas has to make you wonder why we are waiting ten days for it to begin seems like party politicking to me.
Xmas is going to **** the shit out everything - Unfortunate, but don't know how you'd avoid it, it's not like there would ever be thousands of Covid cops knocking on doors on Xmas day so people would congregate regardless.. Just guess we have to live with the fact most of us are selfish numpties and we are willing to let people die rather than make sacrifices, and spend 3 months banged up for the sake of a couple of days...
It could well be more like this than just January I reckon.
On the news it's been slow going on dishing out the vaccine too, even though its early doors and should get smoother.
He's taken a right kicking this last month Drakeford and he'll want to make sure with his one size fits all approach.
The current restrictions were for 17 days so they cease to be effective on 20 Dec and everything should revert to what it was before in the absence of any new instruction to the contrary.
All the chat is about post-christmas lockdown, i.e. from 28 Dec.
so what rules apply from 20 -28 excpet for pubs closing at 18.00 on25th?
what has happened to the certifying of the Oxford Vaccine?
The Pfizer one was cleared fast enough and they said the Oxford one was also being assessed but for over a week now I've seen and heard nothing at all about it.
After all that one is the game changer, its cheaper already made in great quantity, the UK gets first delivery and it doesn't need very cold storage.
A cynic could say they're waiting to announce it the same day as no deal?
Telegraph still reporting it'll be rolled out by end of the year https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-h...te-latest-who/
