Opening retail and allowing people to mingle, will inevitably lead to an increase in cases. How will the SG react to that ? Rationally hopefully. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Westerly councils joining the sub100 club. The real movement is lower down the table. The Highlands, Moray, Borders & D&G are astonishing numbers and fair play to them. Scotland peaked at 301.9 for figures 29th Dec to 4th Jan, Cases that day were 16,496 and test rate was 11.9% Total cases latest 7 days are down from 5223 to 4971.

Pretty clear there is a case for opening up in areas of low prevalence. It will lead to some more cases but so long as it doesn't overwhelm hospitals, there has to be some more liberty granted to people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ad Lib Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Well would you look at that: a new variant that’s more transmissible and that’s more resistant to the vaccines and it’s made its way into the UK despite international travel restrictions. Almost as though we need more and longer lockdowns to get the community cases down to the low teens for all of Scotland so we can track and trace these things. -11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Case numbers shouldn't matter a f**k if very few people are getting seriously ill and hospitalised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if you’re trying to play some sort of character on here these days as you’re bored in real life but it’s bizarre stuff. I see in the news report they say “it is thought it could evade vaccines in the same way as the South African variant”. I look forward to the vaccines blowing ring after ring of cigar smoke in this variant’s face like they’ve done so far with all others. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
