I have felt (like very many people) that we may have timed things wrong but I would be delighted if we don't get another wave. It would mean we could be getting towards the end of it even with social distancing continuing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Infectious for 10 days, 20 days from infection to death roughly so metric wise we are looking at the consequences of mid-April now and we will not see the consequences of the shambolic restart until mid-June (just in time for the restart of football).

Read her piece last night. She is someone who is the sharpest of knives in the knife draw. She gets to the heart of a story and particularly anyone with a front or showing dishonesty or a sense of entitlement. She skewered Corbyn before and rightly and now Johnson. Her humour is dark, wicked. It's voices like hers that are important. There aren't too many around. We are living through such a pivotal point in history and it's all going on in front of our eyes in our government. It is difficult to grasp (for the lay person like me) and accommodate ALL the meanings underneath what we are seeing because we select according to our confirmation bias. Journalists like Hyde help to expose hypocrisy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
