Default Increase infection locations

Cant say Im suprised at the locations of the increases of infection, if I was a betting man I would have put money on that with a happy expectation of a nice little win. Some one said something like " common sense is the most uncommon of any human attribute" Chris.S.

I live in one of the areas concerned and I would not disagree at all with your observations!

Not surprised when you look at the areas that they've locked down they're the areas that they've set up public test centres and encouraged people to use them.
More testing will of course pick up more cases it only stands to reason.

In NHS hospitals 9 people have died with covid in England in the last week (check the website it's all there)

But the first figures from the today said 13 deaths in hospital in the last 24 hrs, then suddenly this afternoon from all sources it's 120! Wonder where they dug those up from, there's something definitely not right there.

Same here in East Norfolk. No social distancing for many of them, with kids running riot around the supermarkets and shops, picking things up, then putting them back! Great yarmouth seafront was crazy yesterday and today. The smaller local beach towns have been swamped with folks abandoning their cars anywhere they can, blocking access and driveways, even to coastguard and lifeboat stations!

Yep same for us here in Weymouth.
Been told today that we can't attend British Superbikes because of the public risk and yet at 11am this morning the beach at Weymouth was so full the tide had to wait in a queue to come in.!!! hardly a mask to be seen and still the government do nothing to stop people heading to the coast in their tens of thousands..

We're definitely not being told the whole truth that's for sure!

Our young neighbours across the back shouted over the fence yesterday when I was in the greenhouse to say it might get noisy Saturday night as we're having a party, Just letting you know in advance.
I said have you not seen the new restrictions for our area about no people from other households to meet up inside homes or private gardens?



It was met with a blank stare & then she said you & your wife come over if you want to I give up.

Just been told about a family member who lives in greater Manchester, she said, that she would take as much notice of the new restrictions as one Dominic Cummings did previously.

Well my shielding has finished today. Can't see me going very far though, diy place for some timber may be? Perhaps a visit to Lakenheath to watch the Liberty F15s or a drive to a quiet bit of East Anglia coast would be nice.

Unlike some I will be applying a sensible, considerate and caring approach to how I move on during this difficult time.
