Fingers crossed…it does look that way.36,389 cases today, down from 51,870 last Friday, it's too early to say for sure but it looks like we may have peaked last weekend.

Hope you’re correct Lost. I tend to get a little confused reading the news reports. Infection rates down and the R rate steady.36,389 cases today, down from 51,870 last Friday, it's too early to say for sure but it looks like we may have peaked last weekend.

But Cat said 750,000 scientists were unhappy with Freedom Day...
Don't know. I just remember Cat saying that Boris had upset some scientists and was a wrong un which piqued my interest If it was Indy SAGE, that explains a lot.Was that the Indie Sage letter by any chance?
I have to agree Scara, as soon as one issue is addressed and dealt with, like magic another issue comes along.More media scare stories, their timing is impeccable as usual.
I hope so but I am not so sure.36,389 cases today, down from 51,870 last Friday, it's too early to say for sure but it looks like we may have peaked last weekend.

Here’s the thought process for many.
Just embarrassment, I think. Wouldn't you you be if you'd spent the last year and a half in some pseudoscientific cult and now the non-believers are calling you in for deprogramming?Here’s the thought process for many.
If there's a lockdown and cases go down: this shows lockdown works!
If there's a lockdown and cases go up: this shows the lockdown isn't tough enough!
If there's no lockdown and cases go up: this shows we need lockdown!
If there's no lockdown and cases go down...
The immediate response is "the numbers are wrong”... but if fall in cases is sustained “that won't work for long...new variant, more transmissible etc”.
The cases going down has really pissed off some people
I’m imagining a ‘count down the days to winter’ wall chart is now operational for these types... hoping and praying the casedemic comes back.Just embarrassment, I think. Wouldn't you you be if you'd spend the last year and a half in some pseudoscientific cult and now the non-believers are calling you in for deprogramming?
That'll be the pseudoscience that created the vaccine, all vaccines in fact, the same pseudoscience that stopped measles, polio, smallpox, diphtheria...the same pseudoscience that's saved literally millions of lives.Just embarrassment, I think.

I've never had any of those diseases so don't need to worry about them. Science also created the atom bomb and Crocs so it's not all good.That'll be the pseudoscience that created the vaccine, all vaccines in fact, the same pseudoscience that stopped measles, polio, smallpox, diphtheria...the same pseudoscience that's saved literally millions of lives.
Fuck have you done?

Betamax was the superior product, not knowing this automatically negates any other point of view you hold.I've never had any of those diseases so don't need to worry about them. Science also created the atom bomb and betamax so it's not all good.
I realised this immediately after I'd posted so edited it to read Crocs instead but you were just too fast for meBetamax was the superior product, not knowing this automatically negates any other point of view you hold.

You’ve clearly never experienced their magic.
Crocs would have won you the entire argument, unlucky.
As footwear I imagine it's a close run thing.You’ve clearly never experienced their magic.
They blow Betamax out of the water
You may scoff, but they are literally the most versatile footwear known to man.... And they're back in fashionAs footwear I imagine it's a close run thing.
We had this discussion a week back Lost and I’m with you, fingers crossed.21,952 today, down from 24,950 last Monday; numbers in hospital may have just peaked, admissions to hospital data is a bit out of date, but looks to have peaked also.
It's not over yet but the expected exit wave doesn't appear to have materialised and autumn/winter may well be tough regardless of Covid, but barring another new variant hopefully the worst is now behind us.
Fingers crossed.
Medical care has no cost?Wasting tax payers money? I hope that is a sick joke? As for these rest, you are right... I am putting myself in danger. Accepting a small amount of personal risk is a very small price to pay for getting things back to normal for everyone.
