I’ll just reiterate what I said before. A few days worth of data is nowhere near enough to be drawing conclusions from, and the attempts to do so are at best wishful thinking, and at worst dangerously dumb.

It might be fine. It might be a disaster. We simply don’t know yet, there hasn’t been enough data to make any sort of projection. Why do people keep trying? Why are people still declaring it a “false alarm” or “over” based on less than a week’s data that includes the notoriously unreliable weekend numbers?

Nobody found out the flu figures yet? Do they match up to years of the past figures?

there were 1.5 million more tests performed in the last week compared to the week before. That alone would increase the number of positive tests found

Especially when the tests have a history of producing false positives

good job from France


also this was yesterday in Paris, perfect organisation by France TV, all of the audience at the JESC 2021 final had face masks








EBU's Executive Supervisor Martin Osterdahl was full of praise for France TV's hard work making this possible amid the current situation of the covid pandemic

likely that they are also all tested upon entering, but good they have had to wear face masks as an extra precaution too
