Morning everyone.

Interesting discussions ongoing...

In terms of anecdotes they are certainly useful data points but need to be taken as that. They may as time passes become a trend in which case we can we spotted trends before they became mainstream.

I have one of my own. I offhandedly said to Mrs lightning yesterday that the uk government and media have told us COVID is over. It was tongue in cheek.. she looked me sideways and said ‘no, two parents tested positive last week’ Mrs lightning works in education.

I chuckled and said, ‘Indian were they’? ‘Yes’ she said. But they haven’t been to India.

But, friends or family members recently returned from Delhi!? Who knows. Probably!!

Watch this space. The UK is testing very heavily with laterals now so have a chance of keeping at least a lid on it.

We all know the MSM will skew and manipulate to set a narrative. I spend a lot of time on a specific hashtag. There are very real very desperate people pleading for oxygen, plasma and remdesivir. The situation, in my opinion, is very real
