There is an upwards trend in cases at the moment, agreed, but the slope is fairly shallow and doesn't merit increased restrictions, imo. For info, the current uptick in infections is almost entirely caused by increased cases in the under 24's (see "Weekly Case Rate by Age Group" at https://www.travellingtabby.com/scotland-coronavirus-tracker/.)

theshed Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 15 hours ago, My half sister said: On a slightly different topic but one that's linked to Covid, can someone explain what the current rules are on drinking alcohol on a train in Scotland? Before the outbreak, you could not drink on the platform but as soon as you entered the train, you could drink alcohol between 10a.m. and 9pm. Then we went into lockdown and drinking as well as eating were banned. Things have relaxed and people are using trains again. I went from Falkirk to London in July and from the moment I got on the train, the bar was open, people were drinking and no one was stopping them. However, on local trains, guards have told me that it's against the law to drink, he wasnt bothered but watch out if the Transport Police board the train. On Saturday, on the way to the game and coming back after 9pm, people were openly drinking and no one cared. So I ask again, what is the law of the land at present? , Scottish government brought in a no drinking law on scotrail trains only a few weeks into Covid and said it was only temporary ban and would be lifted when lockdown was lifted. 18 months later and ban is still in place with no sign of ever being lifted. For the record everyone just carries on as normal and has a drink on the train and the conductor probably won’t say anything as no way they can police it as especially when passengers walked past police at Waverley with drink on them and they say nothing as well. A couple having a bottle bottle of wine on a Saturday afternoon are doing no harm at all and are the ones that might stick to the rules while your dragon soup kids don’t give a toss about any rules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Cases have leapt up sharply before and settled down again. The %+ve rate has consistently bobbed up and down between about 7% and 12% or so. Really not sure what the gvt are looking at re increasing rates, maybe some granular epidemiological data and forecasting, but there's no sustained upwards trajectory yet that would justify extra restrictions. Tues - we might need to increase restrictions. Wedn - cases go up a lot. Hmmm... Thurs and Frid will be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyJudyJudy Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 The issue I have with extending any of the vaccine places is that it will impact on their businesses really . They gave already suffered loss of business through full lockdowns . Also they have proven to be ineffective really in getting more people vaccinated really . Their thinking behind possible extensions most be to try and get more vaccinated , specifically if they targeted gyms , cinemas , cafes where younger people go . It’s blackmail and coercion . I think that those in the younger group who have wanted to be vaccinated have done so and that’s it . They will always be a minority not wanting the vaccine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've long suspected this is as much about controlling the population and effecting behavioural lifestyle changes, possibly with climate change in mind? i heard one of the myriad "experts' on BBC opining that the public had already adapted to restrictions due to Covid and therefore wouldn't baulk at the imposition of climate change constraints. There has beem.more to this last 18mths imo than meets the eye. Population wide restrictions on the vast majority of citizens most of whom wouldn't be susceptible to catching Covid , far less suffer serious symptoms while, at the same time, failing to ensure the most basic of infection control measures in places like hospitals and care homes. The very locations where vulnerable, elderly people are extremely susceptible. Makes very little sense tbh and Swinney suggesting further restrictions is off the scale bonkers. He should be looking at easing draconian measurea like forcing children to wear masks all day in schools rather than imposing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's far better, imo, to look at the 7-day trend stats (when they are available due to there having been no data issues over the last 7 days!) to get a feel of where things are going. Otherwise, if one just interprets the figures on a daily basis it will be case of "Yes!", "No!", "Yes!", "No!", etc. Edited November 11, 2021 by redjambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjambo Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 The trend stats, part two. There won't be solid 7-day vaccination stats for a few days yet. Basically cases are rising, but not at a great rate, the positivity rate is rising, deaths are still moving around within their 16-20 a day plateau where they've been for a good while, hospital cases are dropping well, ICU numbers are decreasing slowly, and the number of 1st and 2nd dose vaccinations being administered is relatively down to a trickle. 7-day averages Today Yesterday 9 Nov 8 Nov 7 Nov 6 Nov 5 Nov ... 1 Nov Tests 30451 N/A N/A N/A 30722 30889 N/A N/A ... 31307 Cases 2855 N/A N/A N/A 2698 2706 N/A N/A ... 2594 Positivity rate % 9.4 N/A N/A N/A 8.9 8.9 N/A N/A ... 8.9 Deaths 17 18 -1 18 19 19 19 18 ... 16 All in hospital 795 812 -17 835 860 879 895 911 ... 924 Non-ICU 737 754 -17 777 801 818 833 847 ... 862 ICU 58 58 0 58 59 61 62 64 ... 62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 It's only a very shallow slope of an increase in cases and the rate. The booster programme alone will suppress that even further once all the over50s are allowed to book their jabs, which is imminent. The relationship between cases and outcomes is already much better. It will get better still once more younger people are 3rd jabbed and the anti-virals come on stream. We are in a transitionary phase between different tools of suppression. Eventually no longer suppressing transmission. Focus all on suppressing bad outcomes. We don't need more restrictions yet. Only if the underlying trend of increases becomes worse.

Nucky Thompson Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Austria are days away from locking down the unvaccinated. They won't be able to leave the house except for work, shopping and stretching their legs. Basically what everyone had to endure last year. If that doesn't boost the vaccination uptake, nothing will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can get vaccinated and choose not to then you live with the consequences of your choice 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before they had to be really reactive, proactive, predictive re measures. This new relationship allows a bit of time to react to infections. We just don't need to introduce restrictions as urgently and pre-emptively as we had to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
