Guest bernardblack Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Went past a couple of beer gardens in dundee after work and they both looked very calm, with everyone distanced. Hope that stays the same 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked past 2 in Perth today. The welcome inn was quite busy in the afternoon, however the Bank Bar in town was pretty much empty. I think with them being opened on a Monday with most people starting to return to work has seen them a lot quieter then they used to be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrshireTon Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 The queue outside the Buff in Prestwick was neither orderly nor socially distanced. Folk had to go into the main road to avoid them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

true_rover Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Only 5% of people having had it would be totally out of sync with the understood mortality rate - it's likely to be 3 to 4 times that.There is a lot of research just now on whether people have a different level of susceptibility - potential if that's the case then you could have a scenario where 15% of people get 80% of the infections, taking you to herd immunity much quicker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The impression I got was that this was unusual and your normal antibody test wouldn't measure this. Could quite easily have been some bonkers article posted by some raving lunatic on twitter mind you, but it came across more serious science than that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not largely unsubstantiated for a start, has a massive cohort, shows that some areas have up to 17% prevalence, is peer reviewed and ties in with more than a couple of other similar studies in other places that had similar findings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Not only was it implied it was fine to go to the pub, the government essentially said it was people's civic duty to go out on "Super Saturday" to save the economy.I noticed that royal ascot was a pretty major event that took place on Saturday (derby day) - perfect timing for the great and good to enjoy their champagne.I wonder if that played a part in the choice of date. It goes without saying that certain industries and events have more clout than others with the highest decision makers in the land. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Ladies and gentlemen of P&B, I extend a warm and cordial invitation to meet up in the beer garden of The Brass Button in Motherwell. If you are lucky you'll get the seats furthest from the bins. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven W Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Think we're all heading for repeated lockdown cycles (sometimes local, sometimes national) until such a time a vaccine (if one ever happens) is mass rolled out. Even if Scotland reached "zero Covid", it'll inevitably be imported from elsewhere, and it all begins again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
