It's looking brighter - some good news

In amongst the usual bickering there is a bit of seemingly good news. No, let's be honest it's bloody great news.
The numbers...
Infections..5605
Deaths.. 98
Hospital admissions.. 360
Tests a staggering.. 840k
Schools have been returning since 8th March so we are into our 3rd week when infections would start to wash into the numbers and they seem to have steadied at approx 5.5k for the last few weeks. So far the return to school which was a red flag for quite a few has been a success as far as infections control.... Well done to the schools and kids and parents... Let's keep it that way after the Easter break.
Deaths are continuing to drop as are hospital admissions which... Wouldn't it be great to hear from the nhs that thanks to everyone's efforts we now have loads of beds free for all our other health issues.
Suns shining, numbers are looking much better... Youre allowed to smile today! |

I would guess that the plateau in "new infections" is a combination of the general downwards trend and the expected new infections coming from schools. The vaccinations have hugely reduced the numbers needing hospital treatments, especially amongst the most vulnerable groups.

5,600 in hospital

I'm going to be the one who puts the downer on this though. Look at the news coming out of India.
I smell a war coming. |

But.... all the data is improving. This is why it's viewed as positive. I haven’t read the news from India, but I don't think they'll go to war with us...

Presumably positve test numbers are steady due to all the at work/school tests now being done that are picking up positives from non symptomatic cases that would have been missed before,hospital admissions are the key numbers now, it matters not if case numbers rise IF people arent seriously Ill and need ICU capacity, we dont care if millions have colds or flu as they dont cause huge numbers of deaths, fingers crossed over the next 6 wks, if admissions stay low then we will be nearing the end of phase one. |

I have been tracking the 3 key figures for a while now and on this dominant strain it's a huge achievement, we will always have a pool of virus but if our Infrastructure for the vaccines stays strong we will come out the other side

We have achieved these figures with people being complacent in lockdown though, we know people are mixing in numbers, yet the figures are still low |

This true. You wouldn’t think we are in a lockdown |

"Just wait to thousands of Brits converge on UK holiday resorts ,shit will hit the fan
It was proven that the crowded beaches last summer didn't cause a spike of infections"
That won’t stop local councils trying to ban it. |

More likely to be from the 20k untested and unquarantined French lorry drivers bringing something in from France... an area that is seeing huge increases in infection rates, just as we had a few months ago. |

"Just wait to thousands of Brits converge on UK holiday resorts ,shit will hit the fan Why ? and if all the vulnerable are vaccinated why are people so worried ? "
This is true. Covid as a virus is not going away but we learn to live with it, just like flu. Our vaccination successes will ensure we are able to do this with minimal disruption. We're not there yet but we're in a much better than most of the world because we invested early in the vaccine and backed it. |

They are battling our Kent strain though atm, I guess eyes are on whether that strain mutates in the eu |

Maybe we should vaccinate the truck drivers as they pour through.. Do our bit for the EU vaccine shortage and help ourselves at the same time. |

How can they undermine the good work. With the vulnerable vaccinated there should be absolutely minimal risk to everyone. That's what weve been told by the government. Get the vulnerable vaccinated and things can go back to normal |

Good idea. But need the 3 week time period for it to be effective

Ermm I've not seen any govt comms saying we can get back to normal when the vulnerable have been vaccinated...
But we are heading in the right direction |

Weve been told since the start that we're locking down 40 million perfectly healthy people to protect the vulnerable. "Stay home or you'll kill granny"
Vulnerable are safe now so there should be absolutely no risk to the rest of us and things should be open as normal. |

Possibly true. Numbers are very much supporting that theory. I'm just saying govt and TV scientists (that's scientists on the telly rather than a fab term) have always been at great pains to say... And keep following the social distancing |

They haven't all had their 2nd vaccination yet. |
