Total flyer as I have no idea but it seems almost as if they are classing new arrivals potentials by default then scoring them off the next day or so when the test is negative.
But as I said I have zip insight on that, I just find the large daily variation odd.
Excellent :agree: If multiple treatments like this emerge from these trials then we might no longer consider this thing life threatening, or at least a great deal less life threatening than just now.Quote:

3598 tests carried out yesterday by NHS Scotland in hospitals, care homes and the community and 1137 drive through and mobile tests carried out by the Regional Testing Centres.Quote:

So 4.6k tests done and only 15 positive? 0.003% positive? Seems very low but good news if trueQuote:

No worries. :aok:Quote:

You have to remember that more people are presenting at hospital with business as usual symptoms. My wife works in an emergency dept at RIE which was non Covid and they had no patients at times. This has gradually changed and is slowly getting back to normal. If someone presents and has symptoms which coincide with coronavirus (a high temp for example) they will be tested and be an unconfirmed case in the stats. When all their results come back they’re found to have whatever made them present (appendicitis for example) but not to also have coronavirus.Quote:

Possibly good news for people on here, who have been unable to get financial help.

Thanks. I suspected it was something like that.Quote:

Ns has hinted towards that tbf.Quote:

I have real reservations that it will be realistic for a lot of businesses to be ready to go by the speculated July 15th date. There are still shortages of a fair few items that are expected to be crucial to reopening and the pricing is mental. A whole load of requirements announced on Thursday and Friday is going to see a massive strain put on a supply chain that is already stretched. The financial climate has meant it's simply not realistic for businesses to speculate and commit to spending on items they may not need.
Got my test results back... NEGATIVE 👍🏻
Great news, are you feeling any better?Quote:

Be interesting to see if there's huge demand for what I assume will be limited flights to particular countries or if there will be little demand as people have written off 2021.Quote:

Do you know if you will still need to quarantine for two weeks after coming back?Quote:
