That's a rise of 65 on yesterday, pretty shocking figures considering there's a lockdown.
How's this happening :headscratch:
Probably because people are flouting them. Certain neighbours are coming and going as they please, when you go shopping, some ignorant idiots are still too close to others.

I literally had to push myself against a wall inside a shop because a prick went past me as if I wasn't there.

Its selfish pricks like this that don't care about others, that will end up killing people.

There's a delay of 3 to 4 weeks then these figures will flatten out and the plan is for them to decline.

Then go back up again when most go back to work..

Then what? More people die, get sick... Another lockdown.

There's no guarantee of immunity if you get over it either. No one knows if it's long lasting..

Part of the herd immunity process which we are doing a lot slower in order to preserve the NHS.

That's the most frightening thing of it all.

And those that did get it again, the damage is already done to their lungs, so it could finish you off the 2nd time.

But let's think about the economy first, because bits of metal and paper is more important than lives.

Not sure but according to experts, only the vulnerable suffer badly while the rest only suffer mild symptoms with no damage whatsoever.

Where does the £5m fit in where Boris Johnson sent letters to reach some of those who can't afford technology that we can?

To be fair to the government, they are doing good with all this carry on.
I will repeat though, if those who don't want to catch the Coronavirus don't want to work because they feel under threat, there is no way they will force them to go out and work.

The UK is only counting the deaths of Coronavirus victims in HOSPITAL only.
Those that die at home or in a care home etc are not part if the statistics.
Last night almost 1,000 people died in hospital and this would have went over the one thousand mark with the rest.
The UK IS having almost 1,000 deaths every day now and on course to beat china in both victims and deaths.
I am dreading today's figures.


What was that you said again?

That's a slower increase over the past 2 days.
