The 9am figures not disclosed yet?

Nope I'm questioning the difference between sitting down and standing up in response to Andy's post about loosening lockdown restrictions everywhere except pubs and restaurants.

Interesting that you point out about the ppm of the virus in open air is smaller than inside a room, makes you wonder why the government's of the world kept everybody locked up for over a year now doesn't it? Those poor buggers who live in high rise flats or apartment buildings.

Anyways all done on that matter. The sun's out, I'm sat in my back garden, mask less. Once the kids have gone to bed tonight we've got some friends coming over for a BBQ and a few beers, we haven't got enough chairs for all of us so some of us will be stood up so I do apologise if that's upset some people but no guidance will be broken so all good in the beautiful climate of Great Ayton today.

Pubs and restaurants don't involve masks, do involve eating and drinking and involve people being leathered, talking loud/ shouting/ getting in each other's faces. Work and shops don't often involve this.

People weren't "locked up", people were limiting contact with external groups. I wasn't "locked up" with some random super spreader, talking/ shouting etc. The risk of an 80 year old, being "locked up" in his house, with his wife, is probably less than him being told to stay in his garden, outside over winter.

Unless you're having a BBQ inside your house, then you can stand up (or sit down) all you like (outside), and not wear a mask, nobody cares, the risk is low in your garden, and you're probably mixing with known groups, in a group of less than 6 or two house holds, which is easy to contact trace.

Enjoy it though, great weather for it, I'll be doing the same in my garden after I've had a bike ride through great ayton :ROFLMAO:
 
That's not staying local Andy......

Like I said, I'm out of the discussion, you ha e your views which you believe make sense, I have mine which I believe make sense.

It is odd how hospitality hadn't been blamed for the double mutant Indian BR7542 variant yet though, feels odd.

You can't be serious though? There must be some sort of wind up involved? This isn't "differing" views. It's someone understanding virus transmission and all the studies that have been done about it V someone who is pretending they don't

It is local, also it's my bike, not a helicopter, and I'm not fit enough to go so far where it would be a problem for anyone. Also I'm self-sufficient, won't need to call in any shops, have an emergency pick up option and my route is entirely through MSOA "suppressed" areas, effectively the lowest case areas. Effectively I assess my risk as coming into contact with covid as about that as being run over, then getting put onto the covid ward by accident.

My views are in line with science and common sense, which I'm happy with.

Why would UK hospitality be blamed for a variant in India? When has hospitality been blamed for anything?

Hospitality is just more risk, it's a fact, saying it isn't, is just doing "your side" disservice, as it throws doubt upon everything, it's like the boy who cried wolf. Your valid concerns and points get lost amongst the crap and lies/ dishonesty.

Yes we have under three cases in Great Ayton and Stokesley area. I believe the rate for the entire Hambleton area is 5.something. Not bad given the amount of visitors the county had attracted over the past month.

Not had many indoor visitors, I bet? Is everyone for your BBQ from the same area? I've been invited to a few, over that way, about a mile away (not been mind).

How many from those areas visit the shopping centres, supermarkets not in their areas, all indoor (more risk).

No idea. Visitors tonight are all from the TS postcode area.

You should really implement the 'bring your own chair' rule
 
As of 9am on 23 April, 4,401,109 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in the UK.

Positive cases were 2,678 (2,596 on corresponding day last week).

40 deaths were reported today (34 on corresponding day last week)

150,841 deaths with Covid-19 on the death certificate (up to 9 April)

33,388,637 have had a first dose vaccination. 130,986 first dose vaccinations yesterday. 11,623,671 have had a second dose. 431,070 second dose vaccinations today.
 
Lots of prescriptive opinions on this thread of late with people questioning the rules they don't like yet assuming someone who disagrees with a different part of the legislation is on a wind up. I find that almost as interesting as andy's assertion that everyone apart from himself is an idiot.

Some of the science used is at best badly interpreted.

The reason I think Randy is on a wind up here is because his comments are so far away from logical thought. He seems under the impression that spread of a virus would be the same in an open area as it is in a closed room.

Not only does the science suggest he's wrong in this, simple common sense does, so you have to assume he's not serious.

Come on chaps, it’s Friday, the sun is belting and case numbers are pretty flat, and at low levels.

I’m pretty sure, regardless of whether Randys guests are from Ayton, Peterlee or Padstow, he’s not going to be doing the conga and playing twister.

Well he wasn't going to be until you put the plan in his head. Please no one mention naked twister
