Everton fans need to provide proof of negative test before attending games, tests must be from the day or day before, fill in a questioner, masks worn all game while outside in the fresh air, some people needing to arrive 2 hours before ko, need to show id, temperature checks, no leaving the seat during the game, i'd love to go back and watch a game but under thoose circumstances i'd cancel my membership and just watch it in a certain local pub. Would of posted in the fans return thread but it's locked. https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/spo...erton-supporter-return-goodison-park-19432908
Because you deem me to have an alternative viewpoint to yourself you begin to throw out personal insults, and suggest that I lack intelligence? Wow, the irony. You know nothing about me at all so keep your caustic opinions to yourself.
Pray tell me on which subject/issue I have a different viewpoint from you ? Exactly what viewpoint are you aligning yourself with Der Alte about ?
Interesting Liverpool is the only place that can do that at the moment (helped by 2000 troops setting up the infrastructure and **** loads of tests in the city) In Hull they’re only planning to target the tests not have walk ins for everyone (and haven’t got enough anyway) Mind you they have expressed an interest in widening to all in the New Year if they can get the tests. Wonder if those test results apply for holidays? Looking at snowboarding in March and told you need a negative test before flying which is £150 private
They've just announced another 67 local authorities that are rolling out mass testing, though we're not one of them... https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19...testing-revealed-12158377?dcmp=snt-sf-twitter
It's putting a lot of faith in the accuracy of the test. There was the flight to New Zealand where everyone had to have a negative result before boarding but one passenger was positive and passed it onto four others. Then the cruise to nowhere ship from Singapore again everyone tested negative before setting off but somehow on board testing showed one passenger was positive so the ship returned to port where said passenger tested negative.

Fully expecting a huge spike of Covid infections around the middle of January as those Crimbo family get togethers and New Year’s Eve piss ups kick into the statistics. If it does follow that kind of pattern we are going to need a month hard lockdown late Jan/Feb to see it though until hopefully numbers decline as the seasons change.
Looking at the graphs, that's liable to be the case if testing is ramped up, as the number of 'cases' follows the line of the number of tests far closer than it follows any increases in gatherings or changes in lockdown rules.
Well either Castle Hill and Hull Royal are doing a fantastic job, or the government just don't like us. I know a lass that has been moved from Castle Hill to Hull Royal and then back to Castle Hill again. She says the Covid Patients at both hospitals are very ill indeed. "This isn't just the usual flu people normally get. It's ****ing scary. I've known this Nurse, since she was a three year old and trust me, she wouldn't bullshit me. Wear a mask even if you don't believe they work. Wash your hands a lot. It's not a big ask is it? **** the Pub. Don't go to your families house just because it's ****ing Christmas. You might kill them, they might kill you. Stay safe and keep everyone safe, or I'll come round and stick a bat up your night dress
And if it doesn't and it continues to decline or plateau will that show that herd immunity is finally happening as the virus is running out of people to infect, personally i don't believe they'll be any third wave, the second was much lower than the first and much lower than what the brother Grimm said in their press conference. There will always be a base rate of infections, it is winter after all and a under lying problem in care homes and hospitals which will skew the over all figures in the wider population.
I know people that have had it, none badly, but they all say they were suprised at how quickly it spread through their group. Interestingly, the worst affected were the ones that returned a negative test.
I know people that have had it, again none badly, and strangely, they ended up being the only ones in their house that had it. Baffles me how it didn’t spread to their families members (they all had negative tests and no symptoms). Must obviously mean there was already a level of immunity in those households. My parents went away in the summer for the weekend with their best friends. One of the friends became ill on the final few days and tested positive. Despite sharing the cabin/car for the week, my parents were luckily negative when tested and didn’t show any symptoms either. One of my best friend’s mum has just had it. My best mate or his dad again nothing. As a school, we’ve had one member of staff test positive over half term and none of our kids have had it. We’ve only had people isolate due to contact. We, very luckily I know, have one of the highest attendances in Hull. Fingers crossed that continues. I’m not suggesting anybody start underestimating the seriousness of Covid by the way. Hands face space and all that. Think they’re now advising we open a window too.
Stupid predictive text, poor eyesight and fat fingers combine to give unusual spelling of "settling" I'm afraid.
Given the published results of the government sponsored review of mass testing using the existing testing technology that does seem to be a rather strange decision - maybe it's on the basis of "well we've paid for 'em so we might as well use 'em". There may be a change in the sampling process in order to improve test accuracy - tests collected by "laboratory scientists" could pick up 80% of cases, tests collected by "trained NHS staff" (presumably including armed forces personnel) might pick up 70% of cases and "self collected samples" around 50% of cases. If these figures are correct we might expect at best that only 20% of those carrying the disease would be released, falsely re-assured, into the population - still a worrying prospect in the period before the benefits of vaccination start to kick in.
