we always knew it would happen when schools and uni's opened, there is medical proof children are super spreaders and mainly asymptomatic. Pubs opened on 4th of July and the rate hardly moved until the last week or so and schools opened at the beginning of September. I do agree you get selfish idiots and people who say the virus is a hoax....they clearly have no brain cells
I am also seeing a lot of rumours half term will be a lockdown for two or three weeks.....

that's true -loads on the road-we followed lockdown rules and where I live are good but there are some selfish sods out there. In work I wear a mask/visor all day and my hands are raw from constant gel and hand washing-annoys me that some peeps treat it as a joke

I think anyone with a brain cell knew sending students back was fraught with danger ....but I still think the rise was fuelled by selfish people ....often drunk....who thought they knew better than the scientists and just went their own stupid way ....and to hell with the rest of us !

not surprised tbh yet more education lost and-it seems to be a pattern- lock down bug goes away, then returns repeat
where I am in FE it is run educationally with the provision that students will be able to work from home

yes getting quite sore -think I will get some E45

Baz, Thailand pubs are open, life is certainly not normal but as near as it can be. You walk in a local shop, there is a machine takes your temp, makes sure on the screen you are wearing a mask, any rise in temp and you are isolated immediately. We just have a useless government that won't look at successful countries. Just blunders along putting billions into their mates pockets who have no idea what they are doing...like Dido Harding, who now runs PHE and it's them that have somehow lost all these positive results. over the last week.
Decent track and trace, all borders closed and isolation immediately
are we still in here?

they need to keep the virus at a manageable NHS level ... we will have a massive rise in deaths and not only from Covid if the NHS can't cope
@Rocking Ros Rose posted:are we still in here?
yes I think so...I can concentrate on this one, I haven't seen it 
are we still here???

I donât think you can blame it all on the government Dame ....although theyâve been pretty useless .....we should have locked down sooner ....and stayed locked down later .....the difference between us and Thailand is that their population is much more disciplined than us .....and they had SARS to teach them what to do . We have great swathes of the population that are totally selfish , and have no common sense.....like those that couldnât go without a foreign holiday for a few months !

I know this Baz, but what our government won't admit is the Asian countries are doing it right and if I was looking at countries to take guidance from it would be those.

its the track and trace that is useless-which is the nub of fighting the virus +a combination of selfish and laxness at airports and borders

exactly Ros lockdown late, no track and trace, open borders and Dido effing useless Harding in charge.....a technical hitch in counting the numbers is another word for incompetence.
