As a chilling thought our local hospital had it's first death from Covid-19 on the 26th of march, yesterday it reported it's ninth! Seven days isn't a long time for those sort of figures to accumulate. Go on, look up your local hospitals figures to frighten yourself☹️

Yes, our local hospital had its 11th death overnight.  They've jumped up over the last week.

If that’s Liverpool, there’s apparently a strong connection with the Liverpool Champions League game that went ahead.

If you read the thread he called it out on 10th March.....

Yup. But it suits some people, say those who were calling it just a cold back then, to pretend that no one could possibly have predicted anything.

So says this bloke

 

Is that why we have a spike in the Midland's too

My point being show the real cause and effect... maybe connected but I guess if you want to make a political point then use it as the only reason why it happened....... 

tell me if any other difference in demographic of other visitors, or any other events/activities/holiday travel return differences as well.....

BTW, it would be our CMO/CSO and Sage expert community that would be part to blame as well...

so why not point fingers not too make political bias point but also to those whom play a part in decisions, oh not forgetting the clubs as well.... but then that wouldn't be political advantage

Yes, we have all had enough of experts with their expertise.

An investigation in Iceland suggests that 7 of that country's cases originated from the same football match in England  https://nypost.com/2020/03/24/iceland-scientists-found-40-mutations-of-the-coronavirus-report-says/

It was on the news tonight that a sudden jump in Liverpool was because some of the figures have only just been added going back to March 19th.

Yes - we really do have to watch out for this sort of nonsense. Social media has a role to play here.

It seems I will be going to 4 days a week and losing 20% of my pay as a result. I have mixed feelings about this.

Hope you're okay. Mrs Ginger took an expected pay cut yesterday. We'll be fine but it makes life that bit harder in general.

If football matches are a reason for these hotspots then why has Cumbria developed into one as well?  

Just wondering.

Cumbria has large numbers of Chinese tourists.

I was put on that but then before it came into effect (apr1) they changed it to furlough with no top up, so 80% pay 0 days a week

The link to the Icelandic study (not peer reviewed afaik) I put above claims to have found 40 mutations in those studied. The original article is unfortunately in Icelandic.
