UK Covid death toll

[Ted Maul]

Some interesting stuff in this presser from Vallance and Whitty.

If cases continue to rise as they are, we could have almost 50,000 cases on 13th October.

Cases going up in all age groups, not just the 'young'.

Four ways to stop the increase... reducing individual risk, ensuring people are self-isolating, break unnecessary links between households (whatever that is) and development of a vaccine.

50,000 people with the virus doesn't mean 50,000 cases. It means 50,000 people have the virus not that they are ill or need treatment.

Yer man Whitty said cases 

I dunno. Seems like a winter without pubs and restaurants is on the cards.
