Site Supporter Winchester White Posted September 18, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2020 So living in Chorley I will be under extra restrictions come Tuesday. Ah well needs must. Looking at the 7 day cases from PHE we have had 46 new cases in Chorley compared with 491 in Bolton, 174 in Wigan and 144 in Blackburn & Darwen.

What a load of crap. Devolvement means they can chose there own path and they did. They also had a meeting with gove last week so its not like no one is bothering to talk to each other. If they want a more joined up approach fine, make some calls and get it sorted. No doubt anything that goes wrong then would also be the fault of the uk government.

Guest Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Looks like the infections for > 70s, the most vulnerable group, isn’t rising. My conclusion is that we don’t need another lockdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My conclusion is that we don’t need another lockdown. Sadly, those who we voted in to run the country think very, very differently at present. I'd guess the over 70s infection rate isn't increasing, as they're generally either still shielding or being more sensible than folk half their age. I'm all for putting anybody over 60 under house arrest until this all goes away, keep the old duffers locked up and let the rest of us crack on, obviously still being cautious, as its still not a situation to be taken lightly at all.

To be ultra confusing micrograms isn't always written "mcg" - it's a symbol crossed between a U and a P and is sometimes written ug !!!! - Recommended daily amount is 400iu, or 10micrograms (mcg or ug,!) NHS say dont take more than 4000iu per day, or 100 micrograms - or 4 normal tablets. be a lot easier if everyone used iu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 All my hotels are absolutely packed to rafters. Coach parties coming in their droves on albert road as well. A school a mile away from there had two year groups sent home because some kid had smokers cough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
