Out of interest do you still think there’s a significant number of people in self-imposed lockdown? Even the more cautious people I know will still be attending non-essential retail and socialising with friends, albeit they are following the rule of 6. I’m not aware of people still choosing to avoid non-essential retail out of fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red is the first wave, blue is the second wave/whatever we’re in now. x axis is how many people are hospitalised each day. y axis is how many people are currently in hospital. It’s all plotted on exponential axes, so a straight line means it’s going up at the same rate, a line bending up means it’s going quicker and a line bending down means it’s slowing.

Positive LFT in my eldest class and now she has to stay home until its confirmed with a PCR. So home school Friday and a ruined weekend at the very least. All just in case... Great end to her last days at Primary School 😞 I can go one better than this.... At the school my mother in law teaches at they have 90 children out. All due to 1 teacher being given a negative PCR result on Saturday then mixing with 3 other teachers at a BBQ on Sunday only to then be called on Monday saying that they'd made a mistake and her test was actually positive...!

Tartan_Glasto Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) As far as cases go, we are definitely in the midst of a new wave in Scotland. highest number of new cases since the start of the pandemic and rising. Deaths remain low for now thankfully. Edited July 1, 2021 by Tartan_Glasto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who can be assed marching around for stuff and then they never end up having what you need? Always feels like a total waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As its stands, someone a bit short of breath for 5-10 weeks has "long covid" and someone who is having serious breathing issues or cronic fatigue etc also has "long covid".
