So what's the take home from this evenings cosy chat to the nation? Well as I see it Johnson as given a clear signal that the total unlocking on June 21st was all BS. This power trip will continue to at least the end of September, cus y'know, that's when furlough is supposed to end. I see tiered areas again, masks, social distancing etc etc and all for what?? It's meant to run and run.

I agree, I have heard today through trusted source that SAGE have rubber stamped a paper that projects 10,000 hospital admissions a week due to variants and the ending of restrictions. In Bolton, the majority of cases are the under-25's who quelle surprise have yet to be vaccinated so the vaccine bl00dy works! No need to lockdown any more in my view.

Very interesting article I came across yesterday speaks of super-spreaders, some folk it is suggested are more infectious than others and by isolating them & close contacts when a pocket of infections crops up would be a better approach than the R number. I'll see if can find a link to post on here.

Keep well
