Netan Sansara Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 It’s just a load of shite now and surely they realise that this will be widely ignored 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fifer Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 This nonsense is starting to get really, really demoralising. There's only so many times I can e-mail my MSP complaining about this before I concede to the futility of it all. Pretty much ignoring a lot of the restrictions at this point anyway but christ I am done with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit stupid. Cases are the important measure unless they’re not. It's an acknowledgement finally that smaller authorities are far more easily skewed against by relatively small numbers cases wise using the per 100k measure. The entire point of a per 100k measure is to normalise case loads against population. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 If there’s now an acknowledgment that the per 100,000 measure doesn’t work in certain areas, surely it should be binned in favour of, well, whatever system is being used to keep East Renfrewshire in level 2? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I’m genuinely surprised at both the Scottish Government finally ditching their Hokey Cokey with levels, and also the reaction on here. This is good news. It is inconsistent with previous steps, but previous steps were shite (and everyone on here complained). This kind of negative reaction, both amongst the media and the general public, is exactly why governments across the UK keep getting bounced into idiotic measures. The general tone of Sturgeon’s speech was good too. Indian variant probably not much more transmissible than Kent, vaccines still work, we’re moving forward. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 The entire point of a per 100k measure is to normalise case loads against population. It was but it looks like they are finally realising that at the low levels we are at now they don't really suit. Would you rather they put ER to L3 based on 17 new cases just because their population means that's higher per 100k than Glasgow. In theory an outbreak like the ER one "should" be much easier to contain than one involving 100+ cases. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
