It looks like Spain may have passed the peak of their "second wave" of infections.

Hope you are right. I also read that in France the second wave virus strength is only a tenth.

Until yesterday they were going up but rise slowing down. They are getting nearly 30000 new cases a day. Thankfully the death rate is not shooting up around a 100 deaths a day. The 2 worrying things are the amount of people in ICU is still going up fairly quickly and also what will happen once they release lockdown.

Spain ?

I think we're looking at dramatic different figures

Worldometer clearly shows a drop from a peak of 8-9000 a day at the begining of Sept to 3-4000 a day now and the graph makes it really clear

A second wanna requires the first wave to have gone, all were doing is flattening the curve into a series of peaks and troughs so as not to overwhelm the NHS, the clue was at the beginning when witty quite clearly showed a graph with ups and downs, we went down and now we're going back up again and hopefully the measures will make it go back down again only for it to rise again sometime in the future.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is about this rise in cases, it's exactly what was expected.

Indeed, but there is still no room for complacency, it's still as deadly and still as infectious.

It doesn't matter who knows what, all it takes is a 1/2 second glance at the infection graph to see two distinct peaks

They're called "waves" because they go up and down again in a sinusoidal like curve for anyone that is confused.

That's not to say the second "peak" will follow the same curve as the first but hopefully it will.

A chemical engineer who's made a career for himself "knowing more than the doctors do".

So... a maverick. Galileo might have been right when the establishment was wrong, but that kind of stuff is increasingly improbable in this day and age. The Galileo gambit is a fallacy.

So "brave maverick telling the establishment what's what" has jumped from his quackery of choice to the crisis drawing lots of quackery.

Yes it’s actually what was expected. The big deal is when you don’t do anything about it - the rise in cases.

Thankfully measures / restrictions are being put in place to flatten the curve.

Science works through the scientific method. Which didn't exist in Galileo's time.

Galileo could be right and the establishment wrong because the establishment was monolithic and tied to dogma.

A modern day "Galileo" is much more likely to be a fruitloop, because the scientific method involves a huge variety of people who gain prestige from finding the correct answer, including proving their colleagues wrong. Peer review etc.

I never said it did, I was refuting your argument that peer reviewed MUST be correct when we in fact know over 50% is unreproducible!.

Neither myself nor the poster I was responding to mentioned anything about ‘waves’.

We talked about a ‘rise in infections‘. The rise in infections is not an opinion, it’s a Fact !!

You can exercise your ‘freedom of expression’ and deny the rise in infection if you wish, but all you would be doing is denying the Facts.

That would.delemd on the attitude of the population, we have already reduced infections, we have learned a lot about transmission and treatment, we can and will get through it

BUT we need to educate the walking dead into the fact that it's still there, still as infectious and still as deadly. Easier said than done unfortunately.

Spain ?

I think we're looking at dramatic different figures

Worldometer clearly shows a drop from a peak of 8-9000 a day at the begining of Sept to 3-4000 a day now and the graph makes it really clear

Has Spain been locked down again? Or just locally like here?"

No we're not in lockdown. Just various restrictions in place including compulsory mask wearing.

"Until yesterday they were going up but rise slowing down. They are getting nearly 30000 new cases a day. Thankfully the death rate is not shooting up around a 100 deaths a day. The 2 worrying things are the amount of people in ICU is still going up fairly quickly and also what will happen once they release lockdown.

What is the general feeling of the people there?

I miss the 'we're all in it together' feeling that was here in the first weeks of lockdown.

The attitudes are similar to the UK I think, but people here are generally more compliant as the police don't mess about and fines are commonplace
