"Between March - Oct, we knew of none that had had it. Nov - 1 person. Early Dec - 3 Jan - 10. I have spoken to half of the 10, and they all confirm they caught it from within their support bubble (as support bubbles don't offer protection, they just slow the virus down. However they seem to make no odds to the new virulent strain) " Thats what happened with us too. | |||

"Currently it is being talked about that one in 50 people in the country have the virus, is there any way of trying to work out, just for interest, how many people in total will have had it?

I understand even if you've had it you may get it again, and I also understand that it does not make you you immune from spreading it regardless of whether you have contracted the virus so far." | |||

"The Office for National Statistics have been testing the population randomly through the year, checking on the levels of people with antibodies. As the earlier infected weren't tested unless admitted to hospital, we don't have figures for then, so calculated estimates from those with antibodies is probably 1 of the easier ways. It would assume each person had it once, I'm assuming. " thank you, I wasn't aware of that. I found the survey and the latest update was printed in December, the next one will be further along in January. The below paragraph is copy and pasted from their website. "In England, an estimated 8.7% (95% confidence interval: 8.2% to 9.3%) of people would have tested positive for antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 on a blood test in November, suggesting they had the infection in the past" | |||
