[The Liverpool City Region will be on the
"very high" Covid alert level from Wednesday,
Boris Johnson has announced.
Confirming a new three-tier lockdown system,
the PM said pubs, bars and betting shops
will close on Merseyside.
Most areas of England will be on "medium" alert,
with measures like the rule of six,
but areas with local restrictions
on household mixing are automatically on "high" alert.

The PM said all retail outlets, schools
and universities will remain open.

It came after England's deputy chief medical officer,
Prof Jonathan Van-Tam, said growth in Covid cases
was a "nationwide phenomenon"
and that "things are heating up"
in areas beyond northern England.]

Covid across Europe: As UK prepares for new lockdowns,
Europe too is struggling


That Link has Nickys Nation.

["Very bad" was Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte's assessment
on Friday of how his country is faring.
An understatement perhaps, given the Netherlands
has one of the worst infection rates in Europe - almost 6,000 new cases
recorded on Thursday, writes Anna Holligan, in The Hague.]

because they care too much about their freedom over here

That's a shame.

Sadly Liverpool

so they have had to cancel some normal operations
in hospitals.


The PM is still answering questions
in Parliament, it is due to end around 5:50PM.

All A-levels will now be 3 weeks later

Is there a theory why very young children seem to be , generally speaking , untouched by the virus ??

Normal for many viruses to be honest, e.g. measles is (usually) much milder in children, Chicken Pox isn't a worry in kids but can have serious complications in adults (shingles), etc.

If you look at the graphs Covid isn't really a serious threat right up to the mid-40's, and even then it's quite rare for it to be "severe" right up until 60+, with obviously 75+ being the real risk category. It is fairly standard for respiratory illnesses to be worse the older you get.
