Lucky Ch4HD Reporter
was just Live in Frankfurt, Germany
As soon as he landed he took a Covid-19 test
it took 6 hours.
At their Airport he was negative.

Of course Germany is doing better
they have many more labs you can get a fast test.

Coronavirus deaths now just 1% of national total as lowest week since March recorded

Data released today by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) reveals that there were 78 Covid-19 deaths between August 29 and September 4 - the lowest weekly figure since March

The number of people dying from any cause in England and Wales has dipped to more than 15% below average - while Covid-19 deaths continue to plummet, data released today shows.

Figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) reveal that in the week ending September 4 - the most recent available - 78 people died after contracting coronavirus.

This is the lowest weekly figure since March, and the stats reveal that there were nearly 1,500 fewer overall deaths than the five-year average.

i'm sure we all hope that the number of serious illnesses and deaths remains low, but we have to be aware of the inertia and the exponential rise in infection rate that can occur. We are in uncharted territory and given that it is best to be cautious at least through this winter. If we are not, it's difficult to get it back under control as we all know

Watching the really atrociously incompetent health secretary today.
Should leave most just wondering what on earth has he been doing all this time.

What an absolute shambles from both him and his leader.

Ambulances were queuing up outside a hospital in Bolton yesterday, that doesn't strike me as a system under control

It's depressing.
Putting aside the forewarning we had in January of what was more than likely to come to us, never mind only possible.

To now, 6 months on from the national lockdown, be in this chaos still as to testing is disgraceful and dangerous incompetence.

I doubt anyone could have done worse than Hancock and Johnson on this actually.

This has been a really awful, unexpected and virtually unknown crisis for any government to have had thrown at them.
I felt for them to have to deal with it.

I supported fully the national lockdown.
Which however should been time used by any kind of competent PM and government, to fully plan for any further concerns regarding this pandemic in the future.
Which they haven't done and have failed dangerously.

There's a lot of the low number of deaths at present comments so it's nothing to worry about..
Which ignore that now it's only those who were diagnosed in the last 28 days.
If someone was diagnosed on 1st September with covid, then died on September 30th..
They won't be in the deaths figure.

This was a time, if there ever was one, to pull together.
With all elected representatives to work solidly together.
Everyone who voted for whoever and whatever party, are ALL affected, or potentially so, by this virus.
Yet, this lot have sought to divide, confuse with conflicting muddled advice, react rather than prepare and deceive by manipulating figures,even on loved ones deaths.
Also testing and the protection equipment farce, dangerous farce however.

Hancock has the support of Johnson, they are linked completely.
I doubt the UK has ever been so badly, incompetently and dangerously served by any previous PM and health secretary in a time of crisis.
As it has by these 2 failing individuals.

India has about 5 million coronavirus cases

daily for the last weeks there was about 95.000 new cases

death count there is at 80.000



India and USA are only nations with over 5 million cases as to this date
