I was only half listening so didn't quite catch what she said. Have they actually done the work to link the unexplained cases? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This location just seems so stupid, I really don't understand why they make these decisions. Plans, 3D mockups, timber framed walls and plasterboard, probably electrics.

Have they actually done the work to link the unexplained cases? They've done some and she said that of the five unexplained cases[1] since New Year they had been able link three to existing clusters and were still waiting on Liverpool to finish the genomics before they could decide on the other two: (From about 10:50 for Ewart's slot) Of course this uses the special Manx definition of community cases ("Things that don't upset Howie"). There's no way of knowing what transmission has happened in the community from identified cases before they isolated or from other leaks in the system. Hopefully lockdown will have suppressed these, but it's an expensive way of doing things because you refuse to use smarter, faster solutions. [1] I make it six but it's possible they were able to link the case on the 13th to a cluster by other means, which would explain why they're saying nine rather than eight days since the last unexplained case. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So, yes, there are electrics for the lights in each booth. Skirting boards too. It's a nice touch that people will appreciate. 1 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they have done some nice paint effects on the skirting, rude not to. P.S I don't think you could have sat down and designed a worse for ventilation/ air changes layout if you tried. Any Covid in the air down there will hang around for ages................................. 2 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
