Coronavirus - Part Two.

[Rockers rule]

Great news, our beloved leader Borris is to announce Covid is something we will have to live with and most restrictions will end.

For those who don't like Plan A,

Plan B is also accounted for in you will be able to have more people at your Funeral.

 

Keep safe out there & let your own commonsense prevail.

The government have made two statements recently:

 

When school children test positive for Covid, their classmates should not isolate

 

It's time for people to return to their workplaces (those who have been working from home)

 

These are dangerously incompatible statements. As with other areas of the country, Covid is rife in Sheffield schools currently. Parents of those children going into their workplaces and mixing in close proximity with others? Madness.

Boris gets a heck of a lot of flack from both sides which tells me he has got it about right.

He may have got this one wrong. In the news today it is announced some hospitals are now cancelling routine surgery again - because they are seeing increases in covid admissions yet again. This will only get worse once we let it rip on July 19th. Many lockdown sceptics seem to be under the impression the NHS can go back to normal if we remove lockdowns, but it may have the opposite effect they were expecting.

 

The best way to get the NHS moving again is to stop people being sent to hospital with covid.

Too many covid patients? That's an easy fix - just test less people!! How can the government encourage less testing? Charge for it!!

I hope this isn't accurate.

The Sheffield inner-city districts of the Cathedral Quarter and Kelham have the lowest vaccination take-up rate in England. As of Monday just 31.8% of adults there had received one dose and 8.4% two.

Greg Fell, the director of public health for Sheffield, said that while he felt the further unlocking of society was inevitable, people should not underestimate the risks.

Its a personal choice if people do not want to get vaccinated, we cannot lockdown whilst they think it over.

I think it can be read as a bit misleading, surely the population in town will be very heavily weighted young and of course a lot are students and many will now be at home for the summer.

Presuming you're referring to the Guardian article;

"Fell said the Cathedral and Kelham figures should be viewed with caution, given that an estimated 66.5% of residents were students, many of whom had returned home. “They’ll still be in our numbers but they aren’t going to get a needle stuck in their arm in Sheffield,” he noted."
