Most scathing on the trustworthiness of government use of testing figures.
Anyhow, are these 17,000 jobs jobs anyway? :
“Thank you for your online application for this role. Unfortunately earlier today the roles were put on hold. This is due to a delay in the launch of the ‘Track and Trace’ app itself while the government considers an alternative app,”
...and...
''People who had applied for contact-tracing jobs through the government’s gov.uk website were told this weekend: “As and when the app (or an alternative) goes live, we will reconsider those applications already received, however please be aware that we have received an unprecedented number of applications for this role and therefore not all suitable candidates will be able to be put forward.”

On the news they've just interview people out for the day at the beach.
One family they traveled 11/2 hours said they worried about being out.
The daughter said she thought it was good to be free to go out but worried of a 2rd peak. "As people will start to do what they won't"
The mother was disappointed at the numbers out and lack of social distancing "it's just like tescos" 🤦♀️
It was lost on them that maybe they are part of the problem.

And that's why I think that this will go on for some time. The stupid idiots think it's not them, but others. When it is them.
On the other hand, if they catch it and are with other stupid idiots just maybe we'll have less left? Cruel, sadistic but possible.
The next street to me decided to have a street party last Friday night. DJ, everyone together, no distancing. And now it's turned out that a couple of them got ill this week and others are worried.

I did laugh at that interview. It reminded me of people interviewed in cars complaining about "the traffic".

I couldn't believe what I was hearing and I don't think the news reader could either as at one point she nearly choked on some of his answers.
Loss of taste or smell has now need added to the UK list of things to look out for.

That was quick. Tim Spector, King's College, was arguing for this pretty forcefully on BBC Radio 4 this morning. A few hours later and PHE have responded. Which, of course, begs the question why they hadn't updated the symptom list earlier.
