Coronavirus outbreak

[kingrollo]

No - because earlier you had said (or implied) that BRI didn't have any concerns about increasing covid numbers and there impact on beds.

"There's no 2nd Wave and there never will be" - or something to that effect.

So you're still saying there's no 2nd wave ? - hilarious !

What ever comes will be one too late, two not effective enough, three too quickly unlocked, four with ineffective interventions to keep cases down. But above all add yet more numbers of deaths and long term social damage which is covid. You can rebuild an economy but you can't bring people back or give them the health back they once had. The current government fudge is not working it's time to get real other western democracies have shown it can be done. They are not having to lock down but are now fully reopen and enjoying life in the new post covid "normal"

This is how you get the news of lockdowns now ? Why on a weekend when people are going to think it's our last chance to go out.

Secondly, saving Christmas? What are we in, a slightly shite disney Crimbo movie?

They have to try something new they've already tried Save lives, then we had save pret, so now it's save Christmas.
Not forgetting it's much more cuddly and takes your eye off the ever growing number of deaths.

None of the other religions have had their festivals “saved”, I think it would be wrong to make an exception for Christians.

National or England only ? Some of members of the “United Kingdom” have already lockdown properly

Same as first time.

1. Minimise or downplay the reality.
2. Hope for the best.
3. Delay
4. Acknowledge problem, implement half measures.
5. Delay
6. Panic. Leak possible harsh measures to press. Assess response.
7. Delay.
8. Implement belated effective measures.
9. Demand all criticism be silenced as we need "Blitz Spirit"

Been shown before but it sum's up your post and sadly looking true yet again.

Boris behind the curve again. Shut down should have happened when Starmer suggested it.

A suggestion that three or four weeks earlier when SAGE proposed it would have been best (Starmer was following the publication of the SAGE minutes, which didn't come out until weeks later).

Not quite he needed to do it when when SAGE ie the science told him to.
