I reckon the Government realised that the Christmas relaxation in combination with the rising cases in England and Wales would wreak havoc. 23 minutes ago, frankblack said: They already knew there were different strains - that wasn't new. The way this news has been presented looks like they pulled that as an excuse to back out of Christmas relaxation. They admitted during the presser that this particular strain was discovered back in November. Sounds awfully like a very convenient turn of events for closing down the christmas break.

You mean a system that allows us to focus on areas with a greater infection rate, and treat separate areas differently according to their condition and circumstances? Right you are then. We should just move to imposing national lockdown whenever the national case rate gets too high. The tier system isn't perfect in how it's being applied, but it's a damn sight better than managing the whole country as if Covid were spread evenly everywhere.

It's been a highly complex investigation of the numbers to tease out the facts re it's infectiousness compared to the existing strains in high prevalence areas. It wasn't something immediately knowable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers go up - tier 3, numbers go down tier 2, number go up cos they’re in tier 2 -back to tier 3 but a few more dead along the way. A load of absolute nonsense. The first lockdown worked, either do that or do nothing. Everything open or everything shut. as for treating different areas differently. We are a tiny country ffs, we aren’t Canada. Micro managing tiny areas is folly. Edited December 19, 2020 by GinRummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next concern is that follow up orders will be received in time to give second doses....which has went a bit quiet. My understanding is that folks' second dose has already been put aside, ie: If they have 500,000 doses which is enough for 250,000 people, not to vaccinate 500,000 and then hope that you get enough supplies in quick enough to give them their second dose, that's not the way it works as far as I'm aware. Besides I do not think that people will get doses from a different batch, imagine if there was a problem you won't know for sure which batch is to blame, that's why if someone gets dose one from batch 001 then the second dose will also be from batch 001. Well that's what I'd think would happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETTY29 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Listening to Prof.Linda Bauld just now is intriguing and the 'cat and mouse' nature of viruses. They want to tease us to do more long term harm, than kill us outright, because they just kill themselves. This new strain and Christmas is just the evolution of the virus and unfortunate timing and the perfect storm. That said this 5 day relaxation was madness, new strain or not.
