It's misleading because last week's figures were 10k up on what we were seeing on a daily basis.
I swear they never explained this though?
Also, is the Liverpool mass testing now feeding into the daily figures does anyone know?
No, I never saw any explanation for it. If it was as a result of the Liverpool testing then you wouldn't expect that to be seen only in one day either so who knows what was behind it all. I don't know what the deal is with the Liverpool figures either.
So many questions, and typically so few answers.
Yes I was just going to say that was a really odd blip. I know they've been messing with the methodology and reporting but that one does seem a rather strange outlier.
I feel like it was potentially another scenario where someone hadnāt refreshed the pivot table again but they didnāt want to admit another embarrassing screw up!
With Liverpool, I saw this last night with regards to PCR/lateral flow testing which makes me think they are included But Iām not sure.
(If you click the tweet thereās a chain of tweets which make it seem like that as replies too)
I'm sure I read somewhere there was an issue with Welsh stats in the days before?
Here there is very low spread from supermarkets but we still disinfect groceries as you don't know who touched/sneezed/coughed on them. And with takeout food, we reheat in the oven and throw the packaging into the outside bin (it doesn't even come in the house), lol. Unmasked social gatherings are the biggest cause of spread where I am.@sarahguard thats fab news huge congrats
So pleased for you.
So the latest phe surveillance report shows supermarket's and secondary school biggest cause of spread.
Lidls had quieing system earlier but inside but free for all inside
COVID-19: Supermarkets most common places visited before positive test - latest data
PHE collated the data using the NHS Test and Trace app for people who tested positive between 9 and 15 November.news.sky.com
Here's the tweet I saw about Welsh stats but I'm not sure it'll of been 10k? The days either side of the 33k were in the 20s
Absolutely dreading working in a large supermarket in the run up to Christmas, it's manic every time!! No idea how the crowds will be handled. And as for the sales!!!
Is this just where people āsayā they have been? No one is going to admit illegal parties and gatherings are they?
Yes, it was a bit of an anomaly.
so angry - a girl i went to school with who works in a care home is sat posing with her friend and her two newborn babies in her house with her husband - WTF
The health minister wants more restrictions and the DUP wants to open everything up ...itās a right farce even worse than Westminsterhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-54995012

Ugh itās going to be a huge mess isnāt it... i have already sacked off the idea of Christmas, will be off work anyway and Iāll just make a tray of mince pies and make a turkey stuffing sandwich or something and watch tv. I just canāt be bothered with going and buying loads of stuff so i wonāt be doing a special supermarket dash. That said though itās just me and my husband, and we can zoom our parents who are all scared to leave their houses anyway. I do totally get how many families need to meet up though for support especially with the elderly, and those living alone. Itās such an emotional time for some, so no judgement from me as far as household mixing goes. I do however worry that loads of people will get drunk at New Years and gather in parks or something. How can you stop that really? People arenāt going to go to bed at 10pm on NYE.
Belgium lockdown extended
We usually go to my MIL's at Christmas, with Christmas Day spent at my SIL's with 11 people in attendance. It's a 200 mile trip each way so going for the day is not an option and we always stay with my MIL who is 82. I am completely torn over what to do - Christmas is a big deal to my husband's family and he's only seen them once this year. Having said that, he's already told his Mum that if the Covid figures are through the roof we won't be going. The irony is there are plenty of years when I would have preferred to stay at home for Christmas but I really want to go this year. It's been a crappy year, I don't see that next year is going to be much better, and it would be nice to have a bit of fun and normality and see the people we love. But I don't want to break any rules or put my MIL at risk. I am so tired of the whole thing

Wonderful news @SarahGard83 
Iād rather just have a quiet Christmas then lockdown again, I normally spend it at my parents but as they are both older thereās no way Iām putting them at risk especially because I have a teenager whoās school has had big cases of it lately.
Im more pissed off that we couldnāt celebrate my sisters and teenagers big birthdays

Interesting study on the use of masks and airborne diseases.
personally I think theyāre a total waste of time. Theyāre not worn or disposed of correctly, theyāre used over and over again with little to no cleaning and unless theyāre more than 1 layer theyāre basically ineffective. Let alone the lack of ability to communicate with others.
All I see is people constantly touching their faces and thereās very little need for them in well ventilated and spaced out buildings.

Landmark Danish study finds no significant effect for facemask wearers | The Spectator
Do face masks work? Earlier this year, the UK government decided that masks could play a significant role in stopping Covid-19 and made masks mandatory in a number of public places. But are these policies backed by the scientific evidence? Yesterday marked the publication of a long-delayed...
