One in 30 have the virus , I read it as - an update, following on “ one in fifty have the virus apparently,.”
Shocking , truly shocking.

You're right Romilly.  I've had my ears cocked every time I hear about the virus because I'm curious whether it's the original virus that has naturally mutated itself, as most influenza virus do, or if it's another new virus that's escaped from a laboratory, or the back of beyond.

And we're probably just beginning the Christmas day spike in cases

I think this subject has been done to death. All the speculation in the world, let alone misinformation, isn’t going  to alter the situation.
I think we should all just obey the rules, sit tight and wait and see the  results of the vaccination program, which won’t be fo some time.

World Health Organization refuses to back UK move to space Pfizer Covid vaccine doses by 12 weeks because there is no proof it will work.

The WHO yesterday said governments should be giving people their second dose within 21 to 28 days of having the first, to make sure the vaccine works long-term.

But it did not attack Britain's decision not to do this, admitting the Government had been forced to make a difficult decision because of spiralling infections and deaths in recent weeks.
