sidcow Posted July 17, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 17, 2021 Daughters Covid Test has come back negative. She's not been contacted by Test and Trace. So by my reckoning, if she continues negative on Lateral flow she can go to Prom as she's got no self isolation requirement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekka Posted July 17, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 17, 2021 I also asked why it was so quiet. She thinks there have been a lot of cancellations this week due to the nice weather and people not wanting to be bothered with it. Fools - just get it done! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Soooo- what does everyone reckon will we actually have full capacity crowds in August? Or full crowds in August and then a 50-75% reduction come winter? I am getting less optimistic by the day unfortunately given this government's previous track record.

Genie Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Boris will u-turn on Tuesday after being so extremely disappointed with the British public not being sensible during the 24 hours of “freedom” causing huge increases in hospital admissions and infections.

That having fun with the Delta variant and we could be looking at a "Belta" variant (I know, I know...) which doesn't sound good. A quick search brings up this but I expect there are many more reputable sources for more information: Beta variant is only 3.4% of cases in France. Another nonsense move.

I'd be surprised to see full capacity crowds. And as autumn turns into winter and cases spike, I'd expect empty stadiums again. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the graph, the hospitalisation pattern and figures from last September October correlate almost exactly with this June July, both in actual numbers and trend. The concern therefore is that the big peak of last winter will be repeated in August September this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Anyone found any data that breaks down who's in hospital in terms of unvaccinated, single jab, double jab? Not seen any clean data on that yet and I don't think its part of the gov dashboard so maybe just not available. The reports tend to say that the ones in hospital that are double jabbed also have underlying health conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted July 17, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) It seems Sajid Javid has tested positive and has mild symptoms.

I 'd like to know the numbers that have been double vaccinated yet are still getting and spreading the virus. My feeling is its not offering much protection from contacting the virus but its doing a great job of stopping you getting severe symptoms. Its very high risk this allowing the virus to spread amongst us and relying on the vaccines to protect us and try and build up this herd immunity.

All the modelling suggests herd immunity mid August and then it should start to retreat pretty rapidly as new infections will be hard to find....... Assuming no big mutations by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
