    I can't recall them ever mentioning how many were tested at the same time as they are telling how many positive cases.

    as a percentage you mean? I don’t think that’s ever been released.
    It would massively help with the context

    I'm not sure how it would help. Most people getting a test are poorly, so a high percentage will test positive because its a self-selecting sample.

    Have they given a split on which were Omicron and which are Delta cases, or are the test kits not showing that...?

    The daily number of cases is 78,610. Included in that number are 4,671 addition cases of the Omicrom variant bringing the TOTAL number of Omicrom found in the past couple of weeks or more to 10,017.

    Somehow the new Omicron variant is accountable for 60% of all cases in London.

    You know what they're like, they always like to feel they've had the latest upgrade on anything.

    They have no idea how many are being tested, as in the main, people are only reporting when they test positive (unless you mean PCR tests only).

    The majority of those testing are necessarily ill either, anyone who's been in contact with someone who's tested positive is now supposed to test daily for seven days and again won't report unless they also test positive.

    France puts over-65s without Covid booster vaccines back in de facto lockdown
    Booster jabs will become mandatory for the health pass that permits entry to venues such as restaurants, museums and cinemas

    Well she’s a scientist so we have to believe her


    Covid could be a genetically engineered man-made virus - and it's now 'more likely than not' that it leaked from a Wuhan lab - MPs have been told.

    Dr Alina Chan, a specialist in gene therapy and cell engineering at MIT and Harvard, made the claims when giving evidence to the UK Parliament's Science and Technology Select Com

    I will only believe it if my mate who works at the local car dealers says it is so. What do scientists know in comparison?

    Was this every completely ruled out? I still take this with a massive pinch of salt as there's no proof either way.

    Indeed there isn't, but Dr Chan's has a book to flog - Viral: The Search for the Origin of Covid-19.

    I might agree if I knew what enviatable was. Is it some sort of jealousy.
