Not in Crawley Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Just had a quick flick through the first pages of this thread (was a really boring zoom call) It seems Fan5 was the only one calling it correct from the start. Miami thought it was a silly overreaction, as did Esco but then did a quick volte-face - my favourite were the thoughts around furlough from a certain section of the board... ''I think there are going to be some disappointed folk if they think they are getting to take time off sick and get paid for an extended period courtesy of the public purse '' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobarp Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) *sick proven correct I think? Or is furlough for people who are sick? which is bull shit. Our grade 6 and below at work get stat sick pay if off with covid yet folk were on furlough at full pay not even 80%. Something wrong there.

In good news though my Mrs is on flex furlough from May and back to full time in September. Such good news, might actually ride this out without going bankrupt. Fascinating......

Guest Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Today’s number highlights 1.5m tests done yesterday 2nd doses up nicely Everything else on the same downward trajectories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjhb Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Cases up slightly, which is to be expected given the amount of tests, but the positivity rate works out as 0.43% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 11, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 11, 2021 The school testing is presumably pushing up numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobarp Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I’ve a meeting next Thursday morning and will be having a lateral flow test before going in. The company all get tested Monday and Thursday and external visitors are allowed in on those days after having a negative test. Not a problem for me. Test and sit in car til the result is in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted March 11, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 11, 2021 It is worth pointing out that over 5000 people a day are still testing positive. Thats low, right, but it’s still there, waiting for us to just start mixing again. I still think it would be absolutely amazing if - ‘huge if - we could get that number to 1000 or 500 maybe then treat every case like they did those Brazil variants Spend that £37 billion on “man markers”. Every case gets a person assigned to make sure they isolate properly. Then it’s gone. Incoming at ports can be man-marked the same way. Justify the spend and shut cunts like me up.
