Sage scientists and the NHS have all been saying that the relaxation over christmas would lead to a huge surge in January. They were very vocal about it

I mean... Common sense was saying that from the moment it was announced. One occasion where I think the "who needs experts?" nonsense actually does apply. Not because the experts aren't right, but because my 11 year old could have predicted that .

I still say a surge peak would come mid February though. People would be sat at the end of Jan saying "pfft, what surge?" and then it would creep in the back door like "Hello sorry I'm late!"
