Just seen that, too.

I thought the number admitted to hospital didn't seem to have risen too much, then saw it was the figure for 29 December.

The World Health Organisation has been negotiating with China for one year trying to gain admittance to inspect the site where Covid-19 Virus emerged.   Permission was given but now retracted.  WHO officials are dismayed due to travel arrangements already been made and two WHO members are already in transit.

Hi

It is claimed we had Covid-19 before Christmas December 2019, when it is claimed Peter Attwood of Chatham, Kent, England, became ill.

He died 30th January 2020. A later Inquest established Covid-19 from Lung Samples kept.

My area has 1,964 cases since March but 499 of them reported in the last week! That doesn't look right at all whichever way you try to fathom it.

Granted I'm an hour south of Edinburgh so any cross border xmas visits went through the area but even so.  I've shielded almost the entire time as I'm advanced Stage 4 COPD and have heart problems but months on my own in a flat overlooking the main street and gardens hasn't helped. I have a wander out after office hours when it's quiet now but the months of doing little have seen the muscles wither away and I really have to work hard on the breathing now. I managed 400 yards today which is a step up from last week. I wouldn't chance daylight, too many wandering about in groups and blocking footpaths, lockdown doesn't seem to have hit home for a hardcore of people from my lofty penthouse viewpoint.
