Seen that on the news this morning before I left for work. My outrage wasn't that it happened as it was totally predictable. Fucking scruffy OOT students, but that was convieniently overlooked in favour of a good old stick the boot in on Liverpool.

Weren't capita building that new Royal which is three years overdue? Or carrilian or something? Can't beat a bit of private sector love.

No mate, it was Carillion. Fucking scandalous what happened.

Not that I'm aware of. I was flicking between sky and ITV and they were both reveling in it being footage from Liverpool while totally ignoring the huge chance it was mainly students.

 

Johnson must have been creaming himself.

What a shit illness. It really does make you go through the ringer. My dad has flipped between looking like he was getting better and then getting poorly again.

 

They stuck him on an intubator last week to do his breathing for him. I come to terms with that being it for him. Was gutted that he was in an induced coma and just wanted him to go out able to dream weirdly. Was gutted that you werent able to dream in this induced coma and thought, from his perspective anyway, that was his life done.

 

Then they woke him up and was doing well and was made up for him. The nurses said he was doing better but then they said today that they cannot keep giving him oxygen indefinitely and may have to stop. Thinking about a tracheotomy for him to clear mucus and making a decision tomorrow. 

 

Apparently he is up in the bed now giving the nurses the thumbs up and that but they dunno if they can do anything. Heart breaking that he seems to be trying to convince them he is ok. He must be terified. Part of me wishes he stayed in the coma now.

 

Absolutely shite illness.

That’s our World Class app you’re talking about. WORLD. CLASS.

After 20 hours, they've got the alert level right. Now that is world class. Just 20 hours.

Plus the volume of old aged persons infected, it's scary high in Liverpool.  Not sure what it is in Nottingham

I reckon that's because unlike most cities our oldies are out on the ale in town and mixing often with students.

Fucking unreal isn't it. I reckon there'll be plenty of other instances like that around the country that have either gone unnoticed or swept under the carpet.

Nevermind Covid, it'll blow over in 3 weeks, but I've been thinking.

 

Two gay PL footballers come out, same team, and they play together and one scores loads of goals.  His partner celebrates with him and snogs him at the corner flag each time.  Ref sends them off. 

 

There's a film right there.

Was speculating how many of these outbreaks are centred around university towns, specifically ones where the campus/halls are mainly based in city centres.  Unsure how far the correlation goes, but it was interesting looking them up.

 

Was particularly surprised that Nottingham was at 880 per 100k by the latest data, haven't heard nearly as much about them as Liverpool...

I said last week or two that the numbers over here were mainly student driven. Leiden numbers moved massively when they arrived/came back. It's a big Dutch student town. Spybee dismissed it but it seems to be getting replicated in the UK as well.

Ah mate, no words. Good luck.

Some of these test and trace consultants have been pulling in 6k a day apparently, scenes.

The stats show infections increasing in all age groups concomitantly. That is not consistent with the assertion that it's being driven by young people.

I mean they aren't dying if you want to link that but the rates certainly seem to be higher. 

 

Seems to be similar to what we are seeing here.

It has to start somewhere. Then it spreads through the ages. Come on, Spock. Think logically.

You seem to have linked me to your Twitter feed there SD.

Quasi exponential -- Spy is not gonna like that.

[Bjornebye]

SD are you happy to admit that we are seeing a second wave?
