Sorry my Tier 4 ferners, sounds sucky

All about hospital beds.

@MiketheSnow it is indeed and rightly so, just a shame all round.

@MajorRage said in Coronavirus - UK:
Royally royally fucked. It's completely over.
Media alright got knives out / blaming Boris.
Bullshit. Time the residents of this country owned the fucking problem.
Really don't think people will stick to this. Pissing me off so much, I've been good the whole time and wasn't even planning on mixing with family this Christmas but I know some people have been waiting for this and it's a shame.
The only way all these restrictions will work is if they are policed and they just aren't. -
@R-L said in Coronavirus - UK:
Question is, are you going to stick to the rules?
I suspect many won't.The new variant is 70% more contagious apparently and some projections are showing an extra 7,500 deaths a week if the current trend continues.
Not that that will stop people doing their Christmas shopping.

A 70% more infectious strain, hospital admissions rocketing. And people are moaning they won't be able to complete their Christmas shopping.
un-fucking-believable.
-
@R-L yeah sticking to the rules. Already cancelled guests and supposed to be looking after my nephew Monday/Tuesday while his mum recovers from surgery but had to cancel that too. This better work.

Is Ferguson back on the team?

This better work.
I'm thinking they have looked at this new mutation and shat themselves. The rise in infections is huge. Hope I'm wrong, but wouldn't be surprised to see a really big uptick in deaths
-
Intensive care beds in London already nearing capacity apparently
-
@Victor-Meldrew yeah the graphs were pretty telling showing the rise eh. Geezuz imagine they discover the strain reacts differently to the vaccine...

My doctor mate who specialises in infectious diseases says that's very unlikely, as it's not a significant structural change to the spike protein (apparently...)

I was talking to a friend who is an emergency doctor. The surge is bigger than the first wave, mainly because of worse compliance each successive time around
