Suitcases at the Airports?

Clearly lock downs are not the answer.

Meanwhile the fallout on the economy becomes more apparent:

Meanwhile the weekly figure remains fairly constant:

15:41
BREAKING
Another 176 people die with coronavirus in UK
A further 176 people have died in hospitals, care homes and the wider community in the UK, according to the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC).

This brings the total to 43,906 as of 17:00 BST on Tuesday.

The government figures do not include all deaths involving Covid-19 across the UK.

The DHSC also said in the 24-hour period up to 09:00 BST on Wednesday, 226,398 tests had been carried out or dispatched, with 829 positive results.

Overall, a total of 9,662,051 tests have been carried out and 313,483 cases have been confirmed as positive.

The figure for the number of people tested has been "temporarily paused to ensure consistent reporting" across all methods of testing.

Whilst some 11000 jobs are going.

You've got to ask what the heck is going on when they're talking about further lockdowns in areas where the infection rate is actually falling not rising as they claim.

Bradford is apparently next on the list although the infection rate has dropped by 29% and also a bit further down the list Kirklees where it's dropped by 49% both in the last week.

These are from PHE's own figures

Lockdown existed for one purpose, to prevent the critical care services of the NHS being overwhelmed by critically ill patients, and to that end it has succeeded.

It was not designed to prevent the loss of life.

The nonsense spun about a natural "R" rate of three, would have meant the numbers of people infected prior to the beginning of the lockdown would have meant the virus was endemic in our population prior to the end of March.

So the greatest danger we now face is one where huge swathes of the population are petrified to do simple day to day tasks, this could have been avoided quite easily.

I don't think so much curate's egg, as dog egg, this situation has been mishandled from the very beginning, the only question now is how best to dig ourselves from this mire of deceit we are currently being swamped with.

I think this situation has been mishandled by most countries but then again it is mostly uncharted territory. But hindsight is a wonderful thing.

We really need to learn very quickly where it has gone wrong, otherwise it will be live, repeat, die!!!

And if not trying to deal with the virus, the moronic population and a nerferious press, there is this:
