RedArmy Posted 22 June, 2020 Share Posted 22 June, 2020 (edited) 38 It’s not actually 15 deaths recorded today, it’s 15 added to the total. There were 21 recorded deaths but some corrections were made and 6 historical deaths removed from the total.

whelk Posted 22 June, 2020 Author Share Posted 22 June, 2020 So few daily deaths and fewer than 5000 people in hospital. Why can I not go to the pub or get a haircut? Or even my nails done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a result of the "lost weeks" on this forum driven by the change of server we lost quite a lot of content from people "explaining" what the daily figures "actually" are. So it is lovely to see that start that up again on the new-look forum. Well done you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Fry Posted 23 June, 2020 Share Posted 23 June, 2020 We can all get a bit closer to each other from July 4th. This is an absolute boom time for companies that produce shop floor signage, floor stickers and other communication materials. Just as they've finished counting the money on the 2m signage they'll get some nice new fat orders for 1m signs to replace them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 11 countries, which include Armenia, Sweden, Moldova and North Macedonia, accelerated transmission has led to "very significant resurgence", said Regional Director Dr Hans Henri Kluge.

Closely followed by : https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-53177282 Quote UK holidaymakers could be able to travel to most of Western Europe this summer without having to quarantine. Ministers are finalising plans for a series of "travel corridors" that will mean people arriving into the UK will not need to self-isolate. Participating countries could include France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Belgium, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Turkey and Finland - but not Portugal. Restrictions for these countries are expected to be lifted in early July. The reason Portugal will probably not be included is due to a rise in the number of new cases in and around Lisbon. Sweden is also unlikely to be on the list because the infection rate there is higher than in the UK.

Very easy to social distance on a beach, the same as a field, forest, lake, countryside. I guess what they're most worried about are the choke points - car parks, paths to beaches, takeaways, toilets etc where it's not so easy to socially distance. Watching the news yesterday, I believe their MI team were stopping more people from entering the town, closing roads and dishing out lots of parking fines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
