Utterly terrifying. Will either be a bad winter or a very bad winter. No longer talking about suppressing the virus.

Need to be another ‘new normal’!

Watched it and found no new information.

Think it was to put the fear of God into folk so they will go by the rules.

But they won't.

New cases every week in my kids school.

Agree nothing new, but stark to be all brought together. See that students at St. Andrew’s uni now infected after illegal fresher’s party. More universities that go back over next 2/3 weeks then this will get worse.

I think the biggest problem has been overlooked. During lockdown when everything except the supermarkets were open you had to wait outside before being let in to control the number of people entering. This seems to have disappeared. No one on the doors and no one telling you to sanitise on entry and the supermarkets are as crowded as ever again.

They can blame who they want but until there is a vaccine this virus will continue to spread. People with symptoms who are unable to get tested is a digrace and so is having to wait up to 6days for test results once tested.

You have no idea how happy I am reading that. Its been chaos in the supermarkets for a while now because of this. I mean in asda the other day I have 6 people basically standing on my back and reaching round me in different aisles. Clearly never heard off social distancing and I'm starting to question how many people are abusing the sunflower lanyards by wearing them when they don't actually have any hidden disabilities that would prevent them wearing a face covering. I know i shouldn't be thinking like that but I just find it amazing that they can't wear a face covering but can stand outside and smoke a 20 deck in no time whatsoever

My local morrisons started the queueing system again so a queue for baskets and a queue for trolleys but wasn’t overly busy when I went so no queue outside door. Problem is when you are in the stores people don’t social distance and the fresh meat aisle is quite often Over crowded.

Aldi local time me has an electronics system for entering so if the light is red you don’t go in but that means relying on people to adhere to the light system

Agreed. People just not conforming to the rules .. took my wife out for a meal and a few beers on Saturday. Was in my horrors watching a group of d*unk youths , hugging , slapping backs , hand shaking . When a member of staff told them to stop wandering about they told her there to go. She then left to return with face masks for them to which they stared her out, scrunched up the masks and throw them on the floor.. absolutely shocking ..

Thats disgraceful. I'm probably in the young person category and I have been abiding by all the rules. Face mask is always on my person if needed. The staff in pubs etc are doing there job and getting abuse for it which is unacceptable and they aren't paid to take that abuse. Personally I would have gotten the bouncers to remove them.

Don’t think class matters especially as cases are now confirmed in St. Andrews uni and that’s meant to be “classy”. That pub/restaurant should’ve chucked those people out after the 1st time they were spoken to.

We’re going into the autumn/winter months people are going to start catching everything Corona or not, how many “new cases” will be added due to the common cold/flu? The track and trace system is doing what it’s meant to do and get people tested but it’s also putting strain on the system and showing more positives than there probably is, I know of people that have been told if their results don’t comeback within the allotted time then they’ve to continue to self-isolate and treat it as it’s positive.

Perhaps because the evidence from contact tracing in the last few weeks is that most cases were from house parties with large numbers of people gathering. You need to work and hospitality industry needs a boost. There is no economic benefit to a house party but they are high risk.

I just wouldn't put up with that in my work, they'd have been warned, then I'd have put them out if they continued.

But too many places let things like that slide because they can't be bothered to deal with it.

Probably doesn't help that I can be a bitch and I don't get paid enough to put up with shit like that x

Since it’s going to be likely that pubs bars and restaurants in England will be closing at 10pm - big bad Boris is doing a televised address tonight - that will be hysterical

Now I know what I’m proposing will NOT happen but I think Nicola should just say fuck it you’ve no been listening to me you’re still gathering in large groups you’re still doing house parties you’re still no wearing masks on buses and shops so I just say do what you fucking want but if you catch covid tough shit - but while you’re all farting about I’m going to make money so no travel restrictions- get the tourists back in - all pubs bars and restaurants open 24/7 if you want to apply for it - this means increased revenue for the hospitality industry and more coffers coming into the government which we will give to the NHS so everyone’s a winner and Scotland becomes party capital of the world - your chances of dying will rocket but hey you’re having fun and we all need a bit of that eh?

THIS

Spot on whilst I’m not downplaying the seriousness of the virus I feel the other affects of it will be worse than the virus itself. Older/vulnerable people being locked in again isolated for months and people fearing for their jobs will have more of an affect on people than the actual virus, “yeah you’ve not caught it but your mental health is screwed”

Just for context there were about 40,000 UK deaths from heart attack in 2018 compared to more than that so far for covid despite severe control measures. The recently suggested 200 a day is like an airliner dropping out the sky every day. The stakes are huge.

That's the mind set they want you to have. Until you're vaccinated blah blah.

I still don't know what test they are using or how accurate it is.

Testing positive doesn't mean anything,its the death rate. Far more are dying from flu and pneumonia.

If they have a vaccine next month it's baloney. It takes at least 5 years to do rigorous testing for efficacy and safety. They get it wrong and there are adverse results they're in big trouble.

We are sleepwalking towards even further economic disaster & dictatorial rule under this clown in Bute House.

How she had the audacity to speak about protecting care homes I will never know, you couldn’t mark her neck with a blow torch. It would be funny if it wasn’t for the fact she has the blood of hundreds if not thousands of elderly citizens on her hands.

She spent the best of around 5 minutes talking but saying next to nothing.

Sadly there are to many people blinded by their hope for independence to see through the her incomprehensible incompetence.

The same can be said for Boris Johnson too before all the cyber nats get all high and mighty.

What has she learned though, shes simply going through the same motions as the last time, banning home visits etc, never worked first time round why repeat your mistakes. ?

Why are we bothering with this farce again? Why are we running from this? It’s natural for something to sweep and reduce our population.

By 2050 we will have exceeded 9 billion people on this planet which is vastly unsustainable. We need to accept natural events like these as a ‘requirement’ to ensure our planet can sustain our species. Happens in every other species on Earth.

what i cant understand is why everyone is so polarised, its all black or white with nobody considering any shade of grey

“i dont care about covid i am worried about mental health” ... cant we worry about both

“if im allowed to work with 12 guys that should equal being allowed 12 people in my house it makes no sense “

take a step back and the logic really isnt that hard to see ... we have 3 options

1. compete lockdown, destroy economy, no tax coming in to pay for public services (crap plan)

2. no restrictions, everyone free to do what they want but virus is rampant and people dying all over (crap plan)

3. something in the middle... nobody is happy and the economy is still damaged but we have managed to reduce the impact hopefully on both sides (also crap plan but probably the best of the 3)

to do option 3 we have to give up some things we want in place of things we need even if the human interaction element of one vs the other doesnt seem to make sense ... we want people in our house, but we need as many people back at work as possible . we want to have family round at the house but in a pub its less often, more controlled, and there is some money keeping the local business going ... it sucks but the best of a bad bunch really

I really fear for the police this weekend - when the pubs shut on Friday and Saturday at 10 pm everyone will just get their carry outs and head to a park or a beach - in Edinburgh we have The Meadows and Portobello beach they are going to crammed with d*unk folk

"what i cant understand is why everyone is so polarised, its all black or white with nobody considering any shade of grey

“i dont care about covid i am worried about mental health” ... cant we worry about both

“if im allowed to work with 12 guys that should equal being allowed 12 people in my house it makes no sense “

take a step back and the logic really isnt that hard to see ... we have 3 options

1. compete lockdown, destroy economy, no tax coming in to pay for public services (crap plan)

2. no restrictions, everyone free to do what they want but virus is rampant and people dying all over (crap plan)

3. something in the middle... nobody is happy and the economy is still damaged but we have managed to reduce the impact hopefully on both sides (also crap plan but probably the best of the 3)

to do option 3 we have to give up some things we want in place of things we need even if the human interaction element of one vs the other doesnt seem to make sense ... we want people in our house, but we need as many people back at work as possible . we want to have family round at the house but in a pub its less often, more controlled, and there is some money keeping the local business going ... it sucks but the best of a bad bunch really "

Have to agree. It's not one or the other. Not really any other options that work.

"They can blame who they want but until there is a vaccine this virus will continue to spread. People with symptoms who are unable to get tested is a digrace and so is having to wait up to 6days for test results once tested.

That's the mind set they want you to have. Until you're vaccinated blah blah.

I still don't know what test they are using or how accurate it is.

Testing positive doesn't mean anything,its the death rate. Far more are dying from flu and pneumonia.

According to the WHO the annual flu death figures for the UK is less than 20,000. Considering we are over 40,000 for half a year with COVID I would say you’re wrong

those death stats are fake. sheeple led by fear...

I’m assuming you know the real death rates

"
. at least 50% lower than they are quoting. the figures are a fraud under the Auspicies of being a covid related death which has been proven to be exceptionally loose.

only 200 ITU beds currently occupied across the UK due to covid despite 5k 'apparent' cases.

Have look at this on youtube, very informative and a bit of an eye opener,

In the last 2 months 6x more have died of influenza or pneumonia I'm not seeing daily briefings on this.

The govt are scaring folk with contraction figures without backing it up with death treatment and recovery figures.

The likely hood of a vaccine is tiny and the country being closed down is only sustainable for the rich imo its time to accept this as another of life's risks take your precautions and get on with rebuilding before folk start dying more from the mental torture of trying to survive as things are

I spoke to the registrar of births deaths and marriages in the Dalkieth area normally they get 4000 deaths from Pneumonia a year they had none this year until the last two months.

But in that same period they had 4000 COVID-19 deaths.

I’m calling BS. Local authorities being told what to put on death certificates is not giving us a true reading of anything.
