Topic: Uk covid update - page 2. (Read 618 times)

I disagree with the rest of your post, but your point about number of positive cases being dependent on the extent of testing is of course valid, and it infuriates me when I see media reports that don't take this into account. Of course testing is much higher now than it was back in April/May, and this means more confirmed cases. Charts such as the below are overly simplistic and very misleading. I don't know if this is sensationalism or incompetence - perhaps, probably, a bit of both.

Good for you, I guess.
It will definitely improve overall economical and health situation in country short and mid term.
However, I have no idea how it will affect things in long term - maybe loan will be that big UK pound will fall drastically or it will recover completely in a following year.

I am pretty sure that UK fgovernment is doing his best for the country. We have to trust in it and their decision, probably it need time for have visible results! The covid is making damages in all the countries economy

that is the best solution because with so many people gathered that no one can ensure that transmission will not occur, why ? is that because the current case is that those who are infected with Covid-19 do not experience any symptoms and feel healthy and they are hanging around, so it is certain that many will be infected .
that's why there is no other way is to avoid the crowd in one place the best way besides following health protocols that still wear masks.

It is not surprising if the UK wants to strict border control in the pandemic regarding the new case found in many places.  The economy in many countries has fallen because of the government facing the pandemic, and the government is trying to prevent more infection. Maybe restricting the people will help from the infection, which will be hard to do by the government. The government is still trying to watch the people who gather in the public area, and they will ask them to go to their homes instead of hanging out together.

Like what the UK government has done, it has also been carried out by several other countries, because the COVID-19
pandemic is still spreading. In order to control the spread of COVID-19, the UK government implemented several new
regulations, such as travel restrictions, large-scale social restrictions, and fines are also carried out for violating the rules
of the COVID-19 protocol. Even British minister Boris Johnson prohibits gatherings of more than 6 people. Whereas previously,
the limit on the number of people who could socialize in a meeting was 30 people. This new, increasingly stringent regulation
was implemented to suppress the spike in the increase in the spread of COVID-19.

Uk Economy was one of the most f###d Up Economy!!

People who been in uk or still living knows uk Economy been f-d hard core.
The bankers gave out credit illeresponsible ways.
Huge billions beens just disapere.
Huge loans been just taken and spended.
Uk and Australia been most Financial irreseponsibility countries over decates


Now the results are here for uk!!

It is heading towards an economic collapse. It is really bad to know how every countries are fighting in covid-19. Many of the citizens have no already food to eat. Lockdown is only for rich people who can sustain their meals and necessities for a couple of months. But for those who can`t afford their daily foods or so called, daily wagers are affected by this lockdown. In my country, I think the statistics have been manipulated by the government to take advantage to the people. I don`t know what is true in this pandemic but one thing I know, we head into economic collapse and below poverty line families will suffer from famine.

Every country has suffering the number increase of infected of this virus so there's need to find a solution for it.
Yes, lockdown to lessen the spread of the virus and also the people should follow the protocol and guidelines given by their government. Even in my country lockdown or community quarantine is given so let's hope the vaccine will come out since every country has suffered also of economic crisis.

Lockdown is the best solution to avoid of spread of virus. Even after some relaxation the case had reached to the new high in many country. So it's best to move to the lockdown procedure again. If we look into economy fully, we can't save the people at this pandemic.We should safe till the medicine available to all.

It is really a must thing to do which is to conduct a border control or temporary closure of the border to be able to manage the number of infected cases in UK for there might be other potential carriers entering the country so to be able not to let such thing to happen that the cases will increase, better do immediate actions to control the problem while it is on its base form. Such action have also been done here in the country where I reside because of the same reasoning of course but we are a little bit late on conducting such which raise the number of infected cases to come into its first 1000. Border restrictions are not just enough to resolve the problem in UK, contact tracing must also be done to identify those infected individuals not to let them roaming around freely and strict implementation of health protocols as well to manage the infection rate.

This is a very good and very correct appeal, it seems that the community still has not followed properly and obeyed the health protocol that has been made. because what is feared is that right now those who are sick have no sign of contracting the Covid-19 pandemic at all and it is clear that the pandemic will increase if he himself violates the rules of the health protocol.

It is hoped that the community must be more vigilant and follow what has been determined, if the pandemic continues then all will experience difficulties. because the hospital can't accommodate anymore and obviously this is terrible.

Discipline is what we need the most in this time of pandemic. Corona virus will still keep on spreading if there are still some citizens who will not abide with the health protocols of the government. Not only for UK but for the rest of the countries. Economy will surely be affected much due to lockdowns but this one is greatly needed this time so we can stop the increasing rate of corona virus victims.

New cases of covid 19 still not stop and it continue day by day after government impose a new normal. I'm afraid that one day we are going to have a long lockdown if covid positive will increase more. We need to follow the health protocol to avoid spreading of virus. To avoid covid we need to have a self discipline and help our frontliners to stop the pandemic.

Isn't it time we stopped listening to all the government crap about the number of cases? ll they need to do is to increase the number of tests, and turn up the replication factor, and suddenly we have 5 times ad many infections, when the reality is that they have probably gone down by 90%. Then all the sheeple go into a flat panic, and wet their knickers. It's time that intelligent people actually realised what the objective is. This is to replace free 100% effective natural immunity with expensive synthetic control of immune systems, that are at best 50% effective, and carry massive risks of collateral damage.

The new normal situations not stopping the new case happen in many countries because we see that many countries almost have an increase in the infection of Covid-19.
We don't know when it will end because people tend not to follow the health protocols, and if this continues, I am afraid that the new case will increase more.
It is not what the government wants to see because they already had the worst experience day by day, and they are trying to warn people to take care of their health.
But if people still don't follow the protocols, maybe the government will go to use strict protocols, and maybe it will strictly than before.

Our economy is facing a slight recession, the United States and other major countries are facing rising unemployment rates and no money to support their lives. I just hope that everyone in the world has a sense of Covid's prevention, only consciousness will help stop the epidemic.
With the general economy falling in such a recession I think people shouldn't buy and hold coins now, it's pretty risky.

It’s just good that UK only had strict border control. I had a few crypto friends living there. Philippines is much more worse than UK in terms of handling ridiculous lockdowns, quarantine classifications, etc. Since mid-March until now, Philippines is suffering due to these lockdowns and our government cannot handle it very well. Even with the stricter rules, COVID-19 cases keep rising gradually and may never slow down anytime soon.

Much worse here in my city. We are just one of the 4 cities in the entire country that are under Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine for the entire month (and a possibility of extension on the following month because of no improvement in the decrease of daily cases). It sucks not having dine-ins, barbershops closed, tourist spots closed for visitations, suspension of public transportation, quarantine passes, curfews, etc.

I stayed home for most of the time with my family. I only go out to buy essential goods, paying bills, transactions, go to bank, etc., using my small bike (since I don’t have a driver’s license and public transportation is not available), and I’m exempted to go out without quarantine pass because of my valid company ID and Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) permit to be shown to the police in case they are asking me for more document.

It sucks because for the past two years, I have traveled here and there. But for this year? Haven’t traveled outside of the province until further notice. I’ve missed riding in planes, boat, bus, etc.

It's almost in every place, there's not just updates for countries that are still putting ban or is still in lockdown.

But what the media portrays and shows are the economies of those countries that are slowly going back. In all sectors are coming back and starts to recover from the slow-down that this virus has made.

There is a package of economic measures announced by the Chancellor that emphasizes the protection of jobs, in addition to helping companies overcome the spread of the virus together.
The economic plan includes a 15% VAT reduction for the hospitality and tourism sectors.
In addition, the government will help companies to repay loans. Although the vaccine is not available and there is an uncertain future, but a plan is being implemented to try to resume economic activities in the safest way possible to prevent the virus from spreading in the UK.
