I try not to have common friends, only special ones.still lurking, this week was the first time since the beginning of March for me to enter into our Mums house its her b'day on Sunday 72. Gram we have common friends I was a bridesmaid to a jack i am not the fairy or the sister, there a shorn way of having a member of the wildlife trust (cryptic but respecting anonymity) i realise that the forum may panic that a newby is posting... but I'm little bit distraught I have totally adhered to mask space and face, wouldn't enter her house my once family home..... I will keep doing it to protect her but I'm at my sad wits end to see people who do not realise or give a feck.... (its only taken me 10 years to post and for a pandemic) I enjoy this forum and I will still lurk. I just needed to off load thoughts, it is a pandemic and maybe i'm reaching out more....
This, i don't mind saying, annoys the sh!t out of me.Overhead a family sitting on the benches in Market Square this morning as I walked past, going on about it was all a load of rubbish and more people die of other things than Covid.
I saw him (Staffordshire Director of Public Health) on bbc news last night. He actually said we’d be going “into tier 2 later this week, it’ll be officially announced tomorrow (today) but it’s expected to come into force at midnight Friday”. So nothing official yet but it looks like it’ll be in place for Saturday.Last night friend of mine said it was midnight Friday.
I asked her where/when it had been confirmed and she said that the director of public health on BBC news had just said so.
However, I’ve googled and still can’t find anything about it anywhere.
Whilst I do not disagree with you, that's only opinion, not evidence.None of the tiers will will they? Lockdown is really the only way.
From my and Birmingham's perspective the difference is so negligible, we are going up a tier. It's not evidence as such, but if it had made a positive difference we wouldn't be going up.Can anyone point me in the direction of any evidence that proves that tier 2 makes any positive difference to a reduction in the number of infections?

Some people certainly see that as a factor in the Belgian experience.Well the way I see it kids/unis will give it to each other, then go back home spread it to the family's... pretty sure that's the main source of the start of this "second wave" not the hospitality sector
We could say it started in The Alps, or in China. Of course it starts somewhere and that's why the locked a lot of the unis down. Now it's out in the general public do you really want to be sitting on the next table to someone who has it in a enclosed room?
