It's a wait and see what happens, I hope we don't get a second wave but we cannot ignore the potential of it happening, it is all a experiment with a huge number of variables, everyone knows how to keep themselves safe now, its whether they take responsibility and do it. |

Honestly I was relying on a second wave to fully convince me this virus was actually that bad in the first place.
All the protestors, looting riots and all the crazy people (personal opinion is these clearly don't give a rats ass about their own life or anyone else by grouping up like this if the virus is still ongoing) have had huge crowds of people and so far not hearing anything about spikes in infection.
So yeah! I put it on par with flu which no matter how many times people bitch and moan it's a killer no one gives a flying fuck.

The UK peak was between 10/04/20 & 12/04/20, and it's been dropping since.
Under Blair it was Iraqi WMD, under Bojo it's the second wave.
As was proven, Iraq WMD that could be deployed against the UK was false.
I suspect the 2nd wave of C-19 will provevto be similar. |

Would.love to think we over it.. our hospital has no pts in icu and only 36 covid pts in hospital the daily numbers are falling as quick as they were rising........but we know bugget all about the mutation or genetics of this virus so i for 1 am still sceptical about this being OVER soon.. maybe no 2nd wave as such but pockets of outbreaks because people think it is over when clearly its not . Stay safe.. stay alert  |

"It looks great that numbers are coming down. However I would like us to get through the next winter before saying we seem to be over this"
 Winter is worrying.
Beijing and some other places are being locked down again due to an increase in infections. Perhaps now that we know more about the virus we will be able to prevent a large second wave. |

Of course it's over it was never really here in the sense of it being the 'plague from hell' as it was sold.
The collateral deaths from lockdown, lack of NHS treatment for ordinary conditions and the massive recession that is coming will be far worse than from Covid19 - but for some strange reason those deaths shouldn't be counted in the equation. |

The virus is still out there in my opinion so all we can do is look after ourselves and loved ones.Social distancing will be the norm for a long time and i fear when Covid has gone there will be other viruses around the corner.It does worry me about meets,so when time is right, just people i trust , wont be as free and easy which is a shame.Take care. |

Or maybe the strategy of shutting down most of the world stopped the spread ? |

We can have wishful thinking but that still doesn't mean that it's reality. Expect a chronic wave, without unreasonably bothering to try to delineate into abstract numbers.
The UK has acted very poorly, compared to the rest of the world. Assuming that it can celebrate and shake off the shackles that others are doing, when they chose the more intelligent pathways that we didn't, is foolish. |

Nope, not me. It’s still a very real thing until a full vaccine is found. I’m know that’s a contentious issue here and I will respect your right not to believe in one if you respect mine.
We are seeing the beginnings of what could be a second wave in China long after they declared it over with.
Second wave can come at anytime |

To be fair I would call the Beijing incident a spike not a second wave. The have had spikes in northern China and again in wuhan.
I m sure we will get spikes here as well. |

If there are 1000+ new infections a day and people are still dying in hospital and elsewhere we aren't 'over it' nor are we likely to be for some time to come.
'Second waves'? Who knows. Given there were 1300 initial infections from Europe rather than one 'patient zero'. Any virology experts on here? |

I would like to think so, but don't.
VE day and the recent gatherings are still too recent. They will have an impact. So will any relaxation. Let's face it, nothing has changed. There is mo caccine or proper treatment. If we rake tge foot off then there will surely be more cases and deaths.
R number is already slightly worse. Over 1 in some areas. |

"200 a day dying still not over 1st wave "
That number provides no context. We need to look at extra deaths. Alot of people who have died who sadly would have likely died anyway from other infections and diseases.
What will be interesting is seeing the impact of lockdown which I feer will now be much worse than covid itself. |

The ONLY good thing about these mass numbers in protesters/defenders/cameramen etc, is that in 2 weeks time, if there ISN'T a dramatic spike, then surely that proves as long as, as a nation, we're sensible, and keep up with the sanitising etc, we should be able to carve back some relative normality. |

Yes very true. Interesting that even if some people are dying of other conditions, covid 19 is tagged as the cause which is both unfair and inaccurate. |

No deaths in Worcestershire for last 5 days. 36 patients in hospital....didnt get the figures on how many of those in ICU.
Definitely dropping more rapidly round here (but we ain't got any beaches and the most statues are of Elgar so no-one had a pop at him (yet). |

Ok, so normally in the ~ 3 month period of Covid, the UK would have 150,000 deaths. Instead we had 215,000 deaths. The extra deaths are clearly because of Covid - their weren’t more road accidents, accidents at work, etc. They were’extra’ to what we normally experience in this country. So unless you know of some alternative illness we might have got in this period, it is Covid  |

Social distancing will be reduced to 1m from 4th July and it will be confirmed on Thursday 25th june
But face mask may have to be worn all the time to help reduce the risk of transmission |

Have you thought about people who are avoiding hospitals and not getting treatment so there's additional heart attacks and strokes, people who are not receiving cancer treatment, people who have committed suicide due to depression of being isolated..... |

It's all the ones who are still at home on a 3 month holiday
You should know if anyone dies now can only be COVID19
It will be the same ones moaning when they are made redundant
Some of us haven't stopped working since this started.. But hey every cloud |
