"The reason for the restrictions in Manchester is because of in house transmission. So shutting pubs will surely compound this issue nationwide, along with the subsequent business closures and job losses." Good point | |||

"Why should one have to be closed in order for the other to be open? Each relaxation measure increases R. R has to be kept below 1 or the pandemic starts to grow rapidly. That is why choices will have to be made." But if the correct measures are brought in for schools then surely the rate of transmission will not be affected significantly? If pubs close will people not start having home gatherings? | |||

No, because no matter what correct measures are taken, R will increase with each element of re opening, and to avoid chaos in the NHS R needs to be sub 1 | |||

Not that give a dam about the pubs closing again but many won't reopen as they won't have staff to run them now the furlow scheme is stopping. So even more jobless people. " Some parents are single parents who have had to work full time through lockdown and haven't had any support with childcare or the luxury of time to "home school" multiple children.

"The reason for the restrictions in Manchester is because of in house transmission. So shutting pubs will surely compound this issue nationwide, along with the subsequent business closures and job losses." That’s actually twisting the narrative... transmission between households was Hancocks term and there’s been no reference to “purely home visits”, meeting between households in general is the issue. The track and trace efforts in Manchester have included a heck of a lot of work on the bars and a lack of social distancing. | |||

"There has been reference to it, you just choose to ignore it. " Nope just disagree with your view. I live and work in the centre of Manchester, we get our trusts briefings daily including feedback from track and trace to prepare for what we may be dealing with. I’m aware of our local press, politicians and mayors messaging. If we where talking about Dudley I may be more inclined to view it as someone not just positioning a line from Hancock to support their personal view. The reference you made earlier was taken from him clarifying in interview that households could no longer mix in bars and restaurants which was absent from the original press release. | |||

"Please answer Children catch it in school pass on to parents or grand d parents and kill them is this right Don't avid question " Of course it’s that. The fear is the numbers though, infected child in a school creates several infected children then they go home to multiple infected households. It’s the same principle as the pro Swingfest masses fail to see... 100’s of people sharing an enclosed space for prolonged time is a really high risk infection model. | |||

""Why can Scotland can get it right But not England " Because they introduced lockdown at the right time, by fortune they where weeks behind London and the rest of England which was always past the point of no return when we shut down." Or because they are different countries. England is more densely populated and much more diverse. The rate of infection is bound to have different. | |||

"I'm a bit sceptical about that, even without control measures the NHS never hit capacity (taking into account the Nightingale hospitals). It seems a bit of an extreme measure to be sacrificing jobs and taking such a step backwards in terms of getting the country going again." The Nightingale’s failed to staff to a level where they had any capability to ventilate, London had the staff to open 1/2 a ward (15 of 700 ventilated beds). Birmingham, Harrogate, Glasgow never took a patient... the NW did treat decent numbers but as a step down unit, we never had anything beyond additional oxygen. The concept of 7,000 additional beds across the country was in reality never there. At our peak of infection we where pretty close to capacity in a lot of the major cities. | |||

"Please answer Children catch it in school pass on to parents or grand d parents and kill them is this right Don't avid question " So isolate kids from the grandparents rather than isolate kids from kids! Also the current evidence is that few children actually contract this virus and even fewer transmit it to others. | |||

And... there’s zero weakening of the virus, it’s absolutely as horrible as it was on day 1. Treatment options, knowledge etc have improved but that’s it. | |||

"A lot of pubs have gone above and beyond to operate as safely as possible, however you can never eliminate risk completely and that's true varieties of factors and not just Covid 19. Some pubs have been completely wreckless and haven't been taking this seriously at all. I know of at least 1 that repeatedly broke lockdown. People have been meeting up in other people's houses and that has been the problem. I very much miss my friends, but it's a sacrifice I'll continue to take if it can save lives. Kids are unlikely to get seriously ill with the virus, however it is still a possibility, the main risk is they spread it to vulnerable relatives in their households. There's a long way to go before this is over. " Totally this It all comes down to individuals whether business owners or customers... in theory well managed pubs and well managed schools can co-exist and keep infection rates just under the line but the more individuals that take the piss, believe they have the right to take more... we all suffer. | |||
