Firehorseart Lives!Toes swollen and painful this evening, so I think it's COVID related. Had this last year around Xmas time, so at least I've an idea what to expect.
Had a headache earlier in the day too and spent most of the day resting, trying to shake it off. Ugh.
Dan O'HaraLooks like my estimate on Monday was pretty spot on.
UKHSA data release today gives positivity at 13.18% nationally.

So when you see an area on the map with 0%, I would advise caution: use the date function on the map to roll back to last week, and check if they're reporting at all.
My feeling is that all the areas reporting 0% are in real trouble.

Our Covid PCR Positivity map has updated again this week, and there are some areas I'd like to focus on.
National prevalence has climbed to high levels after a very brief decline - you can hardly call that a trough - but it looks to me like there's further to go.

Mandy WatsonI've just been for a nice 5-day break in Alnmouth, Northumberland. Out of a house of 9, 3 of us have tested positive for covid with another 3 showing symptoms. My aunt has just been admitted to a frailty ward and half the beds are covid patients.
Yup, except the part about cloth masks.
Latest reports say a well fitting cloth mask can cut transmissions enough to be worth wearing. Apparently they still work better than a badly fitted surgical mask.
I have a decent cloth mask - it has a nose clip and n95 removable filters.
Also, they come in dark blue/ black, which is an aesthetic I like.
