Exactly. If the 5% thing is right then even if you had some miraculous way to get everyone test once 95% of the population are going to need repeated tests.
We've made such a mess of this that we're been left with no safe way out of it. The question of course is was it just incompetence or was herd immunity the aim all along?
Notice they've gone very quiet on the track and trace trial on the IoW, hopefully not a sign that we've messed that up as well. Really should have had that in place before sending everyone back to work.
You take out the extra low day which was the bank holiday and the trend is a lot flatterYou need to look at weekly trends more, was 620+ last Thursday, we’re on a downward trend and things will get better over the next few weeks! Be positive..... cases have also dropped with more testing
We are on a downward trend yes, but those reductions in the daily death rate will close in the same way it increased on the way up. It could be at least 10/15 days before we even get the death rate below 100... and that’s working on the assumption that lockdown carries on as before.You need to look at weekly trends more, was 620+ last Thursday, we’re on a downward trend and things will get better over the next few weeks!

Yep we needed to wait the extra weeks.We are on a downward trend yes, but those reductions in the daily death rate will close in the same way it increased on the way up.

Glad to hear that Pipkin.Just received some money, enough to pay for food for about a month but no internet to log on to help (it just aint coming). I gave the people below me full (thans for the help / money) loads of sweets to help with the kids.
No ‘just lockdown properly as other Countries have done and then gradually ease restrictionsSo what are you saying then? We should stay in lockdown all year
We need to find a safe way out of this
F**kin hell!No issue with the internet out here, just here is ok and i gave the kids lot's of sweets as it seemed ok. Now been told that was nice but stay away
No ‘just lockdown properly as other Countries have done and then gradually ease restrictions
when infections are sufficiently low, ffs it’s astonishing how you can’t see what’s happening.
Far from getting back to normal and aiding the economy, we are just going to be In and out of
lockdown which in the long term will be a disaster for everybody and the economy.
Like everything else this Government does ‘there is absolutely no forethought or understanding
applied to working out the best possible scenario, it’s just “economy is contracting” quick get
Everyone back to work.

Jenny told us yesterday care homes are/ were geared up to cope with this situation and always have been .
Whatever the infection.
Cambodia in the 1970’s.is there any other walk of life where authorising the culling of thousands of people would be let pass without comment?
We can all see why it occurred.I actually wonder if the crises will focus minds on care homes across the wider community - I have some views on this and I think it’s a much bigger discussion point to be had than on here where ids just point scoring. I’ve been to a lot of care homes and can easily see why this occurred. Europe I can see very easily having easily half it’s real deaths in care homes
You won’t even acknowledge what’s happened. If you want an adult conversation that’s your starting point. Sticking your fingers in your ears and going la la la la la like you are is about as childish as it gets.As I’ve said I’ll have sensible discussion on this but I see from Tony it’s again more interested in using care hone victims for point scoring
Most people in care homes should not be even in there in the first place
I would genuinely be interested who has ever been in one of these god forsaken places
I have strong views on this subject but I see it’s just pointless as comparing one government policy to mass slaughter is the way it’s going to go so fine I’ll leave you all to it

Fucking hell. You want to go around accusing people of point scoring of deaths in care homes and then pull that bullshit. If you knew people who died in care homes you would be angry about the situation in care homes caused by this government as much as me. You ain’t, that tells you everything you need to know. Calling me a pathetic specimen and then add another string to your imaginary life to point score on here. Take a look in the mirror pal. You’re a poor excuse for a human being.have you had anyone close to you die in a care home with no idea why you pathetic specimen - that’s why you are the one person I generally ignore in here. Oddly you’d be at home in the government as cheap point scoring is all that bothers you.
Forget it. Just have a jerk off with Your new friends
He lying again?Fucking hell. You want to go around accusing people of point scoring of deaths in care homes and then pull that bullshit.

He’d be fuming with the government if he wasn’t. Simple as that.He lying again?

OK, bye then.So I had a very close relative that died in one of these places which we fought tooth and nail to get back home and I’m lying
My god well guys you’ve got your way I’ll leave you all to it

Would be one good thing to come out of it if politicians stopped kicking it into the long grass. I can’t see the Tories funding it from taxation though, the Dementia Tax was their best stab at it and we saw how that worked out with their core vote. Not as sexy as a train or bridge either so not likely to tickle Johnson’s ego.
What would you do instead, though?Many people in these homes shouldn’t even be in them. For many years they’ve just been profiteering hell holes. Genuinely I hope the one thing that comes from this is how these places are not acceptable places to reside and it’s not just the government (though they need to accept some culpability) but also society as a whole, they are really fairly grim environments
You best check your pension portfolio you’re always bragging about then. Pension investors love investing in care homes because of their high yield and large property portfolios that look good on the books.profiteering hell holes
