No idea, but I am know loads of people who were told to isolate who don't even have a test booked yet. Woukdnt suprise me if there are over 1000 people waiting to have tests booked in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno, but looks like only about 400 tests in last 24h. 1 in 6 (ish) positive. It was (approx) 1 in 10 last major outbreak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those sort of numbers aren’t going to scare many people really. No doubt you’ll be praying for a much bigger number tomorrow. That is little change. I was travelling through half of Europe for over two months during the peak of the second wave; and it didn't concern me a bit. I can't understand all the scaremongering...

Annoymouse Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 So why isn’t their meeting already in progress at 8pm ready and waiting for the results to come in? Should be able to reach a decision and circulate by 10pm? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited March 5, 2021 by Manx Yeller Correction. 416 is yesterday, they haven't updated for today yet of course... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst we are seeing more tests, and more cases as a result, the WHO reckons 5% positivity is about the threshold for whether an outbreak is under control . Hopefully, things will start to level off again as we feel the reduction in transmission that lockdown brings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, agreed it's a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horatiotheturd Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Oh my days! He is now saying we aren't utilising full testing capacity because we don't have the system in place to book the tests. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
