The difference between today and last Thursday is 542 less infections down by about half and 60 less deaths. Spikes are being found now much quicker, so they are easier to deal with. The rolling seven day average for hospital deaths has gone below 50 for the first time. Two months further down the line everyone who wants to go to a game will likely be allowed.
Yes,as I said in my previous post,it goes away in this warm weather but it will be back in autumn/winter because it's a winter flu virus. It would be irresponsible of the authorities to allow football stadiums to be packed with tens of thousands of people when the virus is still actively being transmitted. Only an effective vaccine would take that risk away. Here's hoping the Oxford one becomes available before the end of the year
We don't know if it's a winter flu virus until we see what happens in winter. At the moment it's all guess work from experts who know very little themselves over something so new. WHO at the start said we didn't need masks and it can't be passed on. Going away in warm weather is a myth too because if warm weather helps it go it doesn't explain why Brazil is the second worse country in the world or why the desert of Arizona as of yesterday has 89% of their ICU beds taken....... https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news...rizona-hospitals-covid-19-spreads/5359910002/ I think the Oxford one will get us back to normal with reports that you get 3 times more protection than catching Covid and it should last a few years. I just think because it's rushed it won't work perfectly. It will maybe be like a bad cold where you still go about your everyday business but safely knowing you aren't going to kill someone. So you can have physical contact with someone who's got Covid but safe in the knowledge they can't pass it to you and nobody is going to get seriously ill or worse.
If it's not come back after all the beaches, protests etc it never will. The mythical second spike. Prof. Gordon Owen.
As they should. It makes total sense to prepare for the worst just incase, which is what we didn't do the first time. It doesn't mean it will be needed though. It's like the makeshift hospitals that were prepared just incase the worst happened and luckily were not needed.
