And most of them are children / young people. With 10-14 the age band with the highest number of cases.

So, @MattHancock's promotion to the UN has been cancelled. Get this - it's because his appointment didn't go through the necessary channels! I'm wheezing here.

And the kids bring it home to their families. And under current guidance, someone not infected from a house where a family member is infected can still mingle in society. Utter madness.
8.1% of 11 to 16 year olds are infected with COVID in England And that's not, 8.1% of kids have had the plague during the pandemic That's 8.1% of kids have got the plague *NOW* More than 1 in 12 kids in England. Plagued. *SIMULTANEOUSLY* You've all totally lost the plot... 😬

Best wishes @MattHancock with new role.
Honoured to be appointed United Nations Special Representative. I’ll be working with the @UN @ECA_OFFICIAL to help African economic recovery from the pandemic and promote sustainable development.

We don’t know where this variant arose, but the UK continues to do an impressive job of viral genome sequencing which is how we discovered the variant. So yes, thanks, UK :)

Public display of CO2 in each movie in a movie theater in Japan. This shows ( in this case) low risk of transmission of COVID or other respiratory diseases. This can be done everywhere at low cost. #covidCO2

It's remarkable how often post-Brexit rules work best when postponed or suspended.
We plan to temporarily extend cabotage rights in the UK so foreign hauliers can make unlimited journeys for 2 weeks whilst here🚚 It'll mean 1000s more deliveries and comes in addition to the 24 steps we've already taken to help industry tackle the global lorry driver shortage✅

Hilariously, the same day the govt changed the dashboard, a report was released which noted that using hospital capacity instead of # of infections to steer policy has led to many avoidable infections, many avoidable deaths, and other bad outcomes. Venality and stupidity reign.

Anyone who tells you that this wasn't a deliberate government decision must be completely mad. All mitigations removed, family of positive cases allowed in schools. Deliberate mass infection to try and avoid a Christmas peak. Why do we not learn from our mistakes?

So it looks like the UKHSA is now recommending isolation for LFD positives even if PCR negative. This change has come too late for many, but please do isolate with a positive LFD, as the probability of infection at current prevalence rates is very high. Even if PCR -ve.

This Sun story from January is also about the exact same lab.... thesun.co.uk/news/13900590/w…
Here's what we know about Immensa Health Clinic, the company behind the suspended W'hampton Covid lab: 1. Company only formed in May last year 2.£170m in NHS T&T contracts - last one for £50m issued in July 3. CEO also runs travel tester Dante Labs, which is being probed by CMA

It appears Immensa Health has run 2.5 million tests over the course of the pandemic and 400,000 over the period the DHSC think the problem has happened during. xitter.cf/PaulLomax/status/14489…
Replying to @dgurdasani1
"We have proudly analysed more than 2.5 million samples for NHS Test and Trace", the CEO say. How many false negatives out of all those over what period? gov.uk/government/news/testi…

So, it appears that the private lab which wrongly gave out 43,000 PCR negative results was Immensa, a company with no experience of PCR tested awarded a £119 million contract after only being in existence for 4 months. Corruption costs lives. bylinetimes.com/2020/11/09/1…

Which implies this was going on for ~35 days. Does make one question the validation and oversight / regulation of private labs.
UKHSA say a private testing lab in Wolverhampton has been suspended - 43,000 people in South West of England given false negative PCR results between Sept 8 and Oct 12
