Yes I don’t want to come out too early and ruin all this hard work but at the same time lockdown fatigue is real! I agree it will be back to tiers and I hope that we will mainly be tier 2 or even tier 1 but I fear they’ll put everyone into tier 3 for some time still. It’s crazy by March we’ll have done a full year in and out of lockdowns.I agree, it would be helpful to know the plan but I think tiers will be similar rules to last time. Hopefully most places in tier 2 following a lockdown. But then we can’t come out too quickly or cases will rise again so maybe it’s too hopeful to say tier 2
Just a heads up, the police may turn up at his house. Although of course you may not be there at the time anyway.
This happened when someone I know was in hospital with Covid. Track and Trace had been unable to reach him on his mobile, so police tuned up at his house one evening. I was really surprised at the time that there wasn't an automatic way, at the point of testing, to indicate to Track and Trace that the person was hospitalised.
I’ve lost the post but someone said they’ve finally shut the borders..... no they haven’t, people can still come into the UK. They just need to isolate and provide a negative test
It's all non essential travel borders that have been closed. You can leave and enter the UK if it's deemed an essential journey but not for holidays or leisure etc.
It's mad because on the holiday pages I'm on, people are booking foreign holidays for end of Feb/beginning of March as they think with the vaccine, all travel restrictions and tiers will be removed at the end of Feb
yeah that's a common misconception I think. They have shut the travel corridors so everyone will have to isolate no matter where they're coming from where as before there were countries you didn't have to. Essential travel is still okay. I think Brazil flights are banned though
Sometimes you have to be brutal to get a point across , I mean those posters are brutal and should be aimed at those breaking the rules but I think if they been continuing to break the rules since March I doubt they will change now
but I defo agree with the doctor on the news who said every time you go out and break the rules , you are denying a cancer patient their surgery
We're all being asked to use our common sense and behave responsibly and take personal responsibility for our actions. It's fine to go outside as long as people observe social distancing and respect each other's space. Unfortunately there are some people (like that prick Laurence Fox) who seem to think rules are for other people. Matt Hancock isn't being hypocritical by going outside, he's a human being too and needs a walk as much as anyone else.
oh me too.

I think it has become part of a social experiment on compliance. I don't think that was the original aim ,( more of a while we are doing it anyway , we might as well treat it as an experiment)but I think data is being compiled and psychologists / sociologists whoever will be studying it. I also think public compliance to covid/ lockdown measures may shape government policies in the future .
does anyone know what happens in the U.K. if supplies of the vaccine are low?
they’ve done millions? But all other countries have kept half of that supply back for shot 2 so they can vaccinate fully?
so in 7/8 weeks time (give or take) they need to start jab 2 for all those waiting?
if millions are waiting for jab 2,
say of the Pfizer vaccine, and they can’t source that in 7/8 weeks time, and you can’t mix brands, what happens then?

yes that's what I meant... been a long day
I think the reason they are having to be off sick is not due to how ill they feel, but more that they have COVID symptoms, therefore have to isolate. As no one can be certain it’s not actually COVID?
Our hospital allows 48 hours of flu symptoms and then if it continues , you need to have a covid swab and wait for results before coming back to work
Makes sense when explained like that
apparently they're going to make UK arrivals quarantine in a hotel. Better late than never

All arrivals to UK face hotel quarantine to stop new Covid strains
Ministers have ordered plans to be drawn up for a fresh crackdown at Britain’s borders to stop new variants of the coronavirus undermining the vaccination effor
