Great news, proof that lockdowns work. Shame that in about 4 weeks it will be through the roof again. 

I bet you £12.57 it's not. I find it mental that you think this is just down to lockdown, and don't think that the fact 22 million Britons have been vaccinated and an estimated 14m have been infected, and that somehow you think this is the only non-seasonal Coronavirus.

 

Do you advocate lockdown lasting forever?

What is the other non seasonal coronavirus?

 

No course I don't, I'm just pointing out that since lockdowns cases have dropped.

Fine, I'm just pointing out that millions of people now have extremely high levels of immunity.

Nope. I think it helps massively but immunity? Nah I don't no. Do you think lockdowns help? 

Immunity doesn't necessarily mean you don't get infected at all, it means you have the ability to fight it off. But, meh, that's the small details. The vaccine has also broken the link between infections, admissions and deaths.

 

As I have said before, draconian lockdowns would work. No contact - no spread, but the level of lockdown we have had I think probably has little impact on infection rates. We have had more excess deaths that Sweden.

 

Put it this way, if I was ranking the reasons for the big drop off now, I would go with

 

1) Immunity

2) Seasonality

3) Lockdown

I’d go:

 

1 - lockdown

2 - vaccines

3 - antibodies
