LotusLeftLotusRight Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 According to the ONS, we had about 4.9 million active cases in the UK last week. About 1 in 13 of us. Due to the decline in testing, you can no longer read much into the daily totals reported by the Government. The real numbers of new cases are significantly higher than that. Also worth noting the consistently low numbers of vaccinations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM Barrykearley Posted April 3 Author Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 3 Alice and myself had our clot shots yesterday. She had her second - mine was my third. local drop in centre in Worcester. No queues whatsoever - in and out in 5 minutes. All so we can both book a holiday very shortly. I swore I’d not have another jab. this morning - my arm is dead - and I’ve already cleaned up puke from Alice missing the toilet this morning. Think we are in for a rough day. Daisy gave over 100 jabs on her last shift - she is definitely seeing a pick up in take up. Last Friday she even had one person have a full on seizure just after vaccination - but this is a person with history of such things and completely unrelated to the covid jab itself - before anyone moans 🤪 Quote Only here once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbers Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 After my Father in Law had an episode and suspected Stroke on Saturday he sat in an ambulance for 7 hours as there were no beds. After a stroke, when you are meant to be seen within the "Golden Hour". As you may know a family member is an A&E Consultant. She says its all down to COVID. Virtually half of the people she is seeing right now have COVID. Govt won't be telling you this though, might make them look bad or something! Oh and her and her Partner have both just had it for their second time in 3 months. Quote Possibly save your life.

Kimbers Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 Everything but number 7. I ate shit loads of crap. Body craved Chocolate and cakes and stuff. Mainly because savoury I couldn't really taste i knew it was savory or hot but it it didn't have any flavour. Could taste sweet though, which is really weird. Oh and I was inordinately horny for some reason! Like really really unusually so. Not that you wanted to know. 2 Quote Possibly save your life.

Also worth noting the consistently low numbers of vaccinations. ONS data comes from random sampling and so is more accurate, but takes longer to be collected. As you say daily figures are pretty meaningless now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
