Bairnardo Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I notice when the death figures are low there’s lots of comments on here, but none today when we’ve had the highest daily figure of since March.Can you carry this on towards the making of a point? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't it higher last Thursday? We seem past the peak now, so it hasn't been too bad considering the number of cases. Encouraging. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Encouraging.Given that registration offices only opened yesterday, there will be an element of catching up with the weekend deaths. It would be useful if they gave a breakdown of numbers who died with Covid against those who died because of Covid, if it could be seen that the young and those with no underlying health conditions were amongst those sadly passing away it may encourage more of the unvaccinated to come forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Aye, a tin of dog food from B&M - I'm like a one-man Oxfam, me. Can't recall mentioning money - your we imagination getting the better of you? Some people working in frontline, public-facing jobs are really worried and scared - especially those who may be faced with a choice of isolating or continuing to work so they can afford to live. Is chucking a mask on for five minutes really too much of an imposition? Is it "virtue signalling" or just not being a selfish, opinionated cúnt?He's always been a selfish, opinionated c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 What the future holds. Quote Posted at 16:04 Covid symptoms 'now comparable to a bad cold' BBC Radio 5 Live Copyright: Christina Hu Image caption: Scientist Christina Hu The NHS website lists the main symptoms of Covid as a high temperature, a new continuous cough and a loss or change in your sense of smell and taste. But scientists at the Zoe Covid Symptom Study say that, if you've been jabbed, your symptoms might be more like a bad cold. Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, Christina Hu explained: "The current top symptoms that are being reported by Covid-positive people in the Zoe Covid Study are...milder things like runny nose, headache and sore throat. "Our data is really showing that post-vaccination, symptoms are certainly more mild and comparable to a bad cold." Christina added that the symptoms could also have changed because more younger people were catching Covid. She called on listeners to tell other people about the new symptoms. "It does seem unlikely that the government is going to change the official list any time soon so we are calling on the listeners to spread the word about this," she said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the NHS were asked to provide this a while back and told the government to bolt so realistically we’re never going to get it.Mentioned on here before, but the ONS stats for England and Wales show the difference between those whose death certificate shows the difference between those where Covid was an underlying cause of death, compared to the total.If I remember rightly (not been at work this week, so not looking) - it's roughly 60-70% of deaths where it's underlying rather than just included. This compares to about 80-90% if you go back to January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
