No one? 2 people today, presumably plus their households. 7 this time last week. if we count those low figures as “no one” then “no one” has actually sided from or with COVID on island when deaths are averaged out since it began. In fact, it would be less than no one. But if they'd come in under 2+2, or completely open borders and been unfortunate to develop symptoms they'd be doing exactly the same.

As if anyone is going to offer themselves up for a voluntary test? I've got symptoms this week. Runny nose, headache. No way on earth I am phoning 111 and getting a test. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example they currently home-swab some people who are isolating prior to going into Nobles and can't make it to Grandstand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
