5.4% positivity rate so actually down on the 5.95% positivity rate from yesterday
Must include LFT as PCR capacity is less than half of the total tests
5.4% positivity rate so actually down on the 5.95% positivity rate from yesterday88k out of 1.6 million is a small percentage..
Must include LFT as PCR capacity is less than half of the total testsIs the 1.6m tests only PCR tests or does it include LFTs too!?
I’m talking about NI it’s a completely different thing. For one our local hospital has 10 ICU beds to do an entire area of thousands of people.Belfast has limited capacity too they have to cancel red flag surgeries if they need extra ICU beds England don’t have those problems.I beg to differ. My local hospitals are on black alert every winter. There are always reports of no ambulances and them stacking up at the hospital as no beds.
Ah fair enough. I often forget that it isn't just England on hereI’m talking about NI it’s a completely different thing. For one our local hospital has 10 ICU beds to do an entire area of thousands of people.Belfast has limited capacity too they have to cancel red flag surgeries if they need extra ICU beds England don’t have those problems.

Looks like there has been a spike in testing in NI tooThat’s the difference in 7 days what’s accounting for the sudden rush View attachment 927975

The isolation needs to ends. The country will grind to a halt if the amount of cases go as predicted.I’m not expecting a lockdown in Jan, nor the schools. Remote learning has been raised by my child’s school, not because of closures but if they are off but well enough to continue learning or if the school has to send some classes/years home due to low staff levels.
Yep. At this point it’s the isolating that’s causing the issue.The isolation needs to ends. The country will grind to a halt if the amount of cases go as predicted.
Maybe people have symptoms? The drive in test centres have been pretty busy we don’t have a shortage of LFTs or PCRs. I fail to see why people would want to isolate if they’re not ill.But the testing has increased the last two days. It is the highest it has ever been.
I'm in the North East and can confirmIt’s called black eyed Friday in Newcastle because you were guaranteed a black eye by the end of the night
Haha the 'wind up merchant' card is often played by certain people who can't fathom that someone may think differently than them. Especially on a 'groupthink' topic like this one.
My mum hasn't been to church since March 2020, as she doesn't feel comfortable, but her church has stayed open since I'd say May/June last year?
Wimbledon Centre Court (the one with shops in it). Having seen footage of other places I realise we had it easy - the main problem seemed to be people taking way too long to answer the safety questions, and not enough people manning the desks.Were you at John Smith's?
I bet if you went to the same surgery as a private patient they’d have you in within the hour.So I had to book a dental appointment today. The receptionist asked my vaccination status as they are not seeing anyone without being fully vaccinated including my teenager! What is the world coming to!
That's exactly what my experience of Covid was last month. I had a few days of cold symptoms, then the irritating cough kicked in. Not a chesty, respiratory cough, but the itchy, back of the throat annoying cough that you desperately try to suppress, only to make it worse and end up in an endless coughing fit. Made it very difficult to sleep. Hope you feel better soon.
Interesting seeing as I asked this exact question yesterday (will dentists refuse to treat unvaccinated)So I had to book a dental appointment today. The receptionist asked my vaccination status as they are not seeing anyone without being fully vaccinated including my teenager! What is the world coming to!
