They certainly aren't trying to achieve the impossible and eliminate it. I don't know if they are starting to re-implement restrictions en masse, but the lack of reporting of them in our MSM suggests they are not. I haven't looked, so don't know. If NS stood up and said "In the last 24 hours we have identified 175 people who might or might not have Covid-19" then you'd rightly laugh at her, yet that is essentially what happens every day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems it's not stopping the numbers rising. I'm pretty sure I remember reading/hearing when it was first announced that it takes probably a couple of weeks before they'll be able to judge if its having any effect. 23 minutes ago, Todd_is_God said: Ok they were rising quickly, but are not any more. Happy? A month ago on Wed 12 Aug the 7 day average of infections was 49, 3 weeks ago 47), 2 weeks ago it was 75, last week 114, and this week the 7 day average is 155. You took a pic of the graph from the travellingtabby website that shows this, yet you're arguing against the facts.

Anyone who is looking at the blue bars on this chart and can come to the conclusion that they are "rising quickly" is seeing what they want to see. Of the 12 bars shown, 9 are hovering around the 150 line. They have risen since a few weeks back, but the current trend is fairly stable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd_is_God Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 On the topic of local measures being applied to Lanarkshire, as seems likely, it is worth pointing out that applying a measure to the whole of Lanarkshire is stretching the word "local" out slightly. Geographically, North and South Lanarkshire together is a huge area. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panicking is a bit of a loaded word. Moving quickly to impose tougher measures in the face of rising cases might be a more neutral way of putting it.

Forest_Fifer Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Who could’ve predicted this?https://www.thejc.com/news/uk/revealed-anti-vaxx-nurse-at-centre-of-covid-hate-demos-1.506354Oh, that bitch. Been watching people on YouTube tearing her to shreds for ages. Shes big pals with a guy called Mark Steel who's a Geordie nutter who thinks that LED streetlamps with little aerials on them are actually a 5G kill grid of directed energy weapons. He calls himself a weapons expert, but his actual area of expertise appears to have been shooting a bystander in the head and doing time.He attended her NMC hearings as a "friend". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a new cricket-style format whereby they play 90 mins over two (or more) days in order to switch the fans at various points, thus maximising gate receipt revenue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 12 bars shown, 9 are hovering around the 150 line. They have risen since a few weeks back, but the current trend is fairly stable. The figures from that graph that I already posted (7 day average each week for the past month up to Wed: 49, 47, 75, 114, 155) show cases are rising. You can argue the semantics about how quickly or not they are still rising, but "fairly stable" just shows that you will deny anything unless it suits you. The sheer amount you post on this thread too, what an utter waste. Edited September 11, 2020 by s_dog 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
