Do they fine people for not wearing masks on there?

I haven't seen it and would be surprised if they did. I've only ever been told off twice for drinking on there over the years.

This account on Instagram has been a decent source of level-headedness and objectivity throughout the pandemic. I've particularly liked their pre-emptive approach towards potential difficult news whilst simultaneously advising people not to get too despondent or sucked into the vortex of doom

Just watching the anti Vax thing on channel 4. And I'm sorry to report that half of us are going to die because we've had the vaccine when half of us don't die will anyone wake up to these idiots talking shite?

Is he the new pagel ?

Right, what was that all about then? I wasn't really paying attention.

I bet most of you are watching Naked Attraction now.

It's all Andrew Wakefield's fault. Actually it was all a bit depressing and could actually fuck up the ending of this pandemic in some places.

This is interesting.

The charlatan who faked the MMR autism link. Really puts iSAGEs whinging when you compare them to someone like that who will actually fuck things up for us (and will likely continue doing so long after Covid is a distant memory).

Couple of things we need to look out for. 
1 at the worst point only the most critical were being admitted. has that threshold reduced, so perhaps patients on the boarderline are being admitted. 
2 are the required interventions less than previously, and is this leading to shorter stays?

Mail and telegraph have been doing this all the way through though.

Just have to see what data looks like on 14th...and if data looks bad whether it's dates not data...or whether it's all good anyway.

I’m not being contrary but I don’t know to either of your points for any certainty. However I would think that whilst the vaccines cut serious illness maybe at this stage of the vaccination program some people still get ill enough to warrant hospital stays but not ill enough for ICU therefore they stay longer.

I didn’t think you would. 
 

I have been working with a hospital for oxygen therapy prescribing profiles for covid patients, and last week they moved them up so you start treatment when your blood oxygen levels are higher than previously.

He seems to think that’s partly the bank holiday causing a lag in the data.

Mail seems to think its being opened to everyone soon https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9641897/Every-UK-adult-able-vaccinated-weeks-country-records-ZERO-Covid-deaths.html

Maybe Twickenham was to see what demand would be like?

I imagine this is going to be a big problem for the government, will they be able to justify restrictions in an area if we see the data worsening for 3 weeks case wise but there's no real effect on hospitalizations

In theory you can be fined but you're very unlikely to see a member of staff while riding it these days, let alone one that would fine you. Same for booze as you say.

That said I agree compliance seems good lately. I think more people are wearing them as it gets busier.
