I don't think the UK government wants a lockdown. At all. So therefore I don't think they'd purposefully skew the figures to make it look like they need one.

 

In which case I must be thick as planks, because I have missed your point completely

They’ve just written a cheque for £40 Billion to fund furlough through to next March. Yet they dont actually believe in any of it.

My point was that your dismissal of the 492 deaths as over a period of time was a poor one and that the graph you used to back up your position actually defeats it.  

Edit - obviously looking at single day figures doesnt really tell you anything anyway.

Ah ok.

The post about the figures was directly in response to @Roger Mexicoquoting the previous days figures as some sort of justification for what he was saying.

Just stop it, please.

Jersey have proved in recent months there is a way.

They’ve rightly tightened up recently given the second wave caused by 2.4 million students returning to city centres at the start of September but they’ll relax as soon as possible being the pro-active jurisdiction that they are.

So the none of the 10 serious/critical are in hospital?

Eh? Link?  Nothing I can see to say 10 serious/critical?  Unless your google has pointed you to New Jersey

The bookface blew up today when someone posted that the TV licensing people came around. The post has since been deleted. Would be nice to find out if this was true. Hardly key workers. 

Two of them are based in an office in Athol Street.

In fairness think he just could not be stuffed to look up 7 day average, but we all got the idea. Since otherwise open border brigade will quote Monday number since registry offices shut on Sunday and the lets lock ourselves in basement brigade will to quoting Tuesday number.

An honest and open breakdown of the current and past situation that includes a little bit of inconvenience in return for an open and clearly communicated policy that doesn’t cripple the local economy or stop loved ones seeing their family and friends.

Looks good to me

Yeah. So far so good over there then. We'll see how it looks this time next week because all the cases they have (97) appear to be in the community.

Deal.

Let’s do it properly and review in six months when we have an overall picture of the economic and emotional  impact balanced against the number of deaths per head of population on each island.

Well if you test in arrival you get a lot more cases, Guernsey upto 12 as also testing on arrival now. No doubt if we did any testing eg on arrival, 7 days etc we would show up more but we only test on symptoms or going into hospital so not getting the data.
