Roger Mexico Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Interesting fact. I reckon that the 39 non-travel cases that we currently have are actually more than the highest number we had during the January cluster. That peaked at 53 on 18 Jan, but 18 of those seem to have been travellers isolating on arrival, rather than infected on the Island. So in once sense this is a worse outbreak than the one that was locked down for. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the Easter holidays you will see a lot more people moving around the UK and we should be in a position to meet that challenge, which it will be (a challenge) if we haven't already started to plan for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick look at the open data on the website, which is only up to 23rd, shows that the majority, 18 from 33, are actually in the 0-19 age group.

We certainly don't want to do that, not when there are plenty of examples around the world (not only our closest neighbours) as to what will/might happen. I've not found anyone calling for lockdown 'on Facebook'. Please link. I would be interested to see whose opinion you are taking notice of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there are a handful in their 20's, and 7 in 35-49 range, so these look like the parents. There are no over 65's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanShimmin Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I'm pleasantly surprised there haven't been more locations of interest published. I guess all the positive tests frequented the same establishments? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the positives have caught it whilst in isolation from the original few cases , lots of teenagers, 4 at rock school, several at gymnastics etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be interested to see whose opinion you are taking notice of. I assume that you don’t have Facebook then? I thought I might try here as an alternative as the relentless lockdown negative nellies on Facebook were starting to get depressing. But to be fair it looks like a good proportion of the contributors on this forum are just as effective as a depression transmission platform as Facebook. If you don’t want to discuss the various lockdown and doomsday scenarios on offer then very much there seems to be little to get your teeth into. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's unlike in January when (if you ignore the King Bill's cluster, which was separate and contained) only about 7 in the community cluster were. So this is an outbreak that has affected those at school, either directly or though related activities. If anything they should be panicking more this time on that basis.
