This is still the first week of 2021...

About 25% of the cases are the new variant, the rest are old school SARS-CoV-2. People just mixed too much in the run up to and over Christmas. Much of it was within the rules, but even with the lowest case rate in Europe it was still too high to open up (was fluctuating between 200 and 400 cases per day). It wasn’t even a complete opening, but anecdotally, we usually eat out locally once during the week. Since this began, we’ve been getting take away from the same restaurants we usually eat in so that hopefully they’ll still be there when all this is done. Up til Christmas, they were empty when I went to collect, in the week before Christmas, they were packed (screens between tables, but obviously they don’t work). People visited friends and family over Christmas (so did I, but we essentially isolated for over a week before we spent any time indoors and wore masks as well). Cases in the last week were reporting between 20 and 30 contacts (whereas during lockdown, the average number of contacts was 2-3)...so, I think it was almost entirely down to people mixing indoors (maybe augmented a bit by the new variant). Thankfully, numbers of contacts for positive cases have dropped substantially the last few days and this is generally the earliest indicator that lockdown is working. Hopefully we peak soon. Today we passed the peak number hospitalised in wave 1 (though ICU is still below where it was when we locked down in March)...so we’re still at about a quarter of public ICU capacity and there’s surge capacity in the private hospitals if we need it, but we are back to cancelling elective treatment again, which isn’t good. 

Thanks! Fingers crossed, it gets under control soon!

I edited it as it was in the thread. I'm dumb lol.

Trump has just recorded a video to those that smashed their way into the Capitol (10 year prison sentence for that in his book) and, he doesn't just refuse to condemn them, he tells them that he loves them.

Anyway, my delinquent 11 year old posed a difficult and unexpected question to me today whilst schooling from home. It threw me for a while because it came from nowhere and without any context whatsoever, much like most of his comments/questions....

"When you have soup does it come out as poo or wee"

Took a bit time to digest but I told him "wee" in the end. I wasn't entirely confident in my answer

I am no teacher and want to thank all teachers for all they have to deal with each and every day

That's up there with 'is there an afterlife?' in the profound question stakes.

Soup is like chewing gum, stays in you for 8 years

Hard to believe but the first week of 2020 was somehow even worse.

Nearly had third world war break out, with that US-Iran general killing conflict.

I can’t even remember back to that now. I guess we just have to get used to this sort of stuff going on in the world these days.
