Honestly I think one of the main differences is simply that the advice has been clearly stated and consistent, whereas the advice in England has simple been so confusing that I feel many people have just given up on trying to keep up with it.
The advice given might have been given and followed better in Scotland, but Scotland also has a quarter of the population density of England. Fewer people per square mile makes it easier to contain things, no?

Don't quote me on this but I believe it was just above 2 at the lockdown dates.

It hit 3 in London I believe in February.

657 out of a 1000 !!


That just demonstrates how easy it is for the virus to spread in a confined indoor space ...sadly some of us work in schools at this time .. potential virus incubators !!

[BBC Text: Klopp boots Boris," is the lead story on
the front page of the Daily Star Sunday,
as the paper reports on the criticism from
the Liverpool football boss over the PM's
handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
Jurgen Klopp said that if aliens compared
the UK's handling of the crisis to Germany's
"they'd think we came from different planets",
the paper reports.]

Damn Florida's now starting to get a MAJOR surge in corona cases the past week / few days in particular As well as rises in Texas & Arizona.

I've actually finally started hanging out a bit in the past ~2 weeks (rather than simply leaving the house with a mask to go to the store/bank/etc. ) as it feels like the corona outbreak is calming so much here. But those rises in other areas are possibly worrying, I am NOT here for a second wave possibly happening in NY/NJ

I mean it's in the south so idk the major surges still might be done here. Hoping those people & families get through it as best as possible tho

2nd, 3rd 4th ... 10th waves are more than likely, but if people social distance it should never become a problem from a health service coping point of view. We have to hope that before the winter comes, they have more and more effective treatments

the death rate in my area from those that tested positive is 21%. Sure, many will have had it and not known, but it still leaves a very high death rate
