Nice to see Professor Carl Heneghan - one of the rare rational voices duriing the pandemic - has confirmed what most of us knew, that there is no second wave and that any rise in infections is obviously due to more people being tested. As he points out in his article, "What we are seeing is a sharp rise in the number of healthy people who are carrying the virus, but exhibiting no symptoms. Almost all of them are young. They are being spotted because ā finally ā a comprehensive system of national test and trace is in place.ā

Now, will someone tell clueless Matt Hancock, who seems to be trying to scare people into thinking the virus is still a serious threat?
āThere is no second wave ā we're just testing more,ā Oxford coronavirus expert says
Experts have previously predicted the UK will see a second wave of COVID-19 in winter.

@Miss_Becs i didnāt get to reply on previous thread. Just to say that we are in a similar place with some health conditions and vulnerable members so we are extra careful. I do feel a bit like the world has moved on and itās not a commentary on anyone here whatsoever, more a reflection on how Iām managing, namely that Iām having a hard time when I hear āIām so done with this, Iām getting on with life.ā I do understand and feel that sentiment, but itās the āgetting onā part we canāt do just yet. Anyway. I hope you and your bf and family continue to be well. Thanks for sharing.
Schools here opened yesterday and some are already closing again because of people with covid. It is really trying times for many.
Aww, thank you for your reply and your kind words.
I'm doing okay, but taking each day as it comes - just wish a lot of people would be as thoughtful as me as I'm getting increasingly frustrated with how so many people are just taking things so lightly - I'm not as scared, but I'm still following all the rules, but it's everyone else that makes things a lot harder, like not keeping their distance in supermarkets and failing to wear a mask. Lockdown hasn't ended, it's just easing, the virus is still very much around, so I just need to keep doing what I'm doing to look after me, my boyfriend and my parents, and let others get on with it. I hope you are well, take care.
Very hard to āsocial distanceā at the school gates, I think I saw about 30 parents all collecting kids and catching up with each other (no exaggeration primary and secondary are very close to each other) but what can you do 
Parents are also collecting neighbours kids and bringing them home in their car, I assume the government know this will be the case and itās a sort of experiment at this point.......
so if cases rise but admissions and deaths stay low can we go back to some kind of ānormalityā by Halloween 
second school with suspected case just sent kids home.

how do we know what the covid cough sounds like? My little girl has been at nursery 5 hours this week and is full of the cold and a cough which sounds like her Typical croup cough she gets when she has the cold! Do I get her tested? She wonāt be in tomorrow regardless. Lots in the nursery have had/got colds and some are coughing which from what Iāve heard is Barky! 
We won't be giving out candy this Halloween. We don't have kids but still give it out but we get over 150 kids and don't want to take the risk, lol.Very hard to āsocial distanceā at the school gates, I think I saw about 30 parents all collecting kids and catching up with each other (no exaggeration primary and secondary are very close to each other) but what can you do
Similar story here to many. School run was manic and mayhem this morning and this afternoon. Despite staggered 10 min slots for different years and one way systems in place there were parents everywhere going all different routes and congregating and chatting. There are so many kids at the school (primary) that thereās no easy way around it. Iām curious to see what happens when a kid in the class coughs now as weāre bubbled with three other classes in the same year group.
If you are in any way worried get her tested. You just book it online. I now believe I have a cold (got a test this morning), but I stand by my decision to call in sick and book one - I couldnāt go in to work with any doubt.how do we know what the covid cough sounds like?

Our second wave...... will prob be suicide when people realise the future we have in store.

We already know people who have killed themselves because of Covid. It is very sad.Our second wave...... will prob be suicide when people realise the future we have in store.

same,
well they didnāt *intentionally* kill them selves, but they didnāt have access to the treatment and support they desperately needed due to covid and passed away.
its made me angry, itās made me wonder if this is all an exaggeration, if they had focused on care homes and the vulnerable could the rest of the world continued on,
but obviously I donāt know either way
Iām a worrier by nature, Iām not worried about getting sick, Iām worried about the aftermath.
look how angry everyone has become, with their neighbours or āfriendsā because of covid and rules in real life, not just on social media! (and Iām not even touching on whatās happening in America right now)
I canāt see 2021 being any better than 2020 to be honest.
I am disgusted at how the governments didn't even think of the elderly in the carehomes... if those people had not died, then the death toll would not be so high, at least where I live.same,

My kids due back next Wednesday. Recieved updated guidance from school today. No masks required as they're not making them mandatory and any child wearing one will be asked to remove at the door unless prior consent given. Bubbles will be in year groups so anyone in year 8 can mix with others in year 8 but unable to mix with other years. Staggered start and finish times but only by 5 minutes per year group. All years given a specific area outside the school in which to wait before entering the school in the morning.
First day of school today and I think it went great!! So many of the kids were so happy to be back and were filled with stories. Was hilarious seeing parents practically skip away once child was in class.
Our morning staggered start was OK. Parents were at the gates (one way system) 10 mins early which meant I couldn't get in the staff car park. Everyone was socially distanced following road markings and most parents were in masks. I feel like the morning, alot of kids came in as they normally do at the same time but it wasn't so bad as we're a small school and the one way system worked a treat. Staff out patrolling making sure no groups and parents were straight out. We didn't have any restrictions on how many people for drop offs, just not congregating and SD. Staggered end of the day was even better in the sense where no crowds (due to rain most likely) but awful for me as teacher because some parents take the mick. You have a full 30 minute window to collect your child and your still 15 mins late? Our policy is to leave the building by 4:30 so deep clean can commence. Child had just about left school at 3:50 and I still had fair bit to do!

ROI;
89 new cases, one further death....
The one further death reported today relates to June.
It is more than two weeks since somebody has died with Covid-19 in Ireland.
and this is why the media are being accused of being scaremongering fake bastards. And this is why they will lose the public support.
The death was in June and the main headline should reflect this, it shouldnāt be an afterthought.

Weāre using grandparents for pick ups, as are majority of my kidsā friends due to work. Ill also be transporting my neighbours kid to school, theyāre in the same bubble anyway 
And children arenāt social distancing in their primary school. Iām so pleased kids are back. Very much needed now.
