Now the police are getting involved there's even more of a reason not to agree with track and trace. It’s a stupid idea to involve the police, and we do need proper support for those required to isolate. However, we also need to track, trace and isolate, that’s how dangerous viral outbreaks are usually overcome . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becky B Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Does anyone know if the places that require you to scan the QR code for the track and trace app allow you to leave details in a pen-and-paper way, or do they only allow people who have smartphones to enter the premises?

We've also got Halloween & Bonfire Night coming up, so that also might reduce the numbers out & about on those two nights? 2 week half term coming up I guess... And levelling down... So much for the liar's election promises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pettytom Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Tier 3, vaccines, lockdown, masks, civil liberties all pale into insignificance.

Ten months into the COVID-19 pandemic, around 10% of the total global population of 7.8 billion has been infected by the virus, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The UK is likely to have more cases than the average country. Will that 10%-15% affect the infection rate, what does herd immunity theory say?
