Re: Corona Virus

Of course there will be more graphs, more manipulated figures which is a euphemism for lies.

Does it not strike anyone as strange that the areas where most testing was done are those that are considered to have the highest infections?
On Nelson they were stopping people in the street to give them a test.
People who were out and about doing their shopping were being ‘encouraged’ to have a test.
The next news was Pendle had a spike in infections.
They did not tell us how many were ill or how many needed medical intervention.

My daughters boy has required four of these tests.....being sent home from school because two of his study group had tested positive, though neither of them developed any symptoms.....he tested negative each time...but had he tested positive it would have been recorded as four cases of infection.
The test is not fit for purpose.
But apparently the test being used in Liverpool is an antibody test....so we will have to wait and see how that goes...but I treat it with scepticism that is born of experience of the shambolic way this has played out.

And please do not trot out the phrase that is over used and of little value ‘unprecedented
times’.

The government missed chances to do things that would have altered the course of the virus......I don’t propose to list them here as I have done it too many times already.
When you make a mistake more than once it ceases to be a mistake, it becomes a choice.
