[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2309603, member: 365308"] I prefer to say [B]Stay Sane[/B] because I think the psychological impact of this has been under reported. The link takes you to the NHS data on who is occupying the 110,000 beds being used as I was alarmed by the 40 Covid cases you quoted for your local area. There were 468 patients in hospital beds [B]with Covid (London, Birmingham, North West have more than other areas) [/B] although we don't know if that is the only reason for their admittance. So that is 0.4% of the beds. Also in week 37 we still have no excess mortality yet we might expect to see that if we allow a 3 week lag for a true infection to set in following the 'case' rise. I suspect whatever measures are taken the government will congratulate themselves but then I really don't see the opposition or even parliament in general standing up to challenge this much.
