Coronavirus Thread

[Catsmother]

Thought we could have a thread just to discuss anything Coronavirus related.

England have over 60,000 new cases and over 1,000 deaths in the last 24 hours.

Doesn't seem to be getting any better and we could be in Lockdown until at least March

I think it might be this way for a few winters yet. It isn't going to get any better until widespread vaccinations can be carried out.

I read that London seems to be past the peak with no increase in last 4 days, if so then that is good

I hope so wish we could say the same thing

That's good news as I was worried they were not getting the second doses out quick enough

Apparently now after you get your first vaccine you have to wait 3 months. My MIL waited 3 weeks for her second.

I think 3 months is way too long

Heard this morning that my Hubby's cousin is in the ICU on a Ventilator. she was in recovery for Cancer. Truly makes it very real when it's someone we know

Boris Johnson dismisses calls to speed up lockdown easing as daily Covid cases drop to 4,712 – the lowest since September in 14% week-on-week fall while deaths plunge by 38% – and says he will continue to take a 'cautious and prudent approach'
