New wave predictions



The UK is "now seeing a second wave" of Covid-19, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said, adding, "it's been inevitable we'd see it in this country."

Mr Johnson said he did not "want to go into bigger lockdown measures" but that tighter social distancing restrictions might be necessary.

It is understood a new three-tiered set of restrictions is being considered.

I suppose it must be there somewhere if the Prime Minister can see it. Must take a closer look.

That's actually a picture of Gibralter - by Picasso...

At times like these words fail, I can't believe a supposedly intelligent man is making these comments, they are all raving mad.
This pandemic, it hardly qualifies, is 23rd out of the last 24 pandemics, yet is being treated as if it was the black death.

Scrobs - but wait until a big wave comes.

Wiggia - that's my conclusion too - they are all raving mad. It isn't easy to add anything else.

Hedged bets, perhaps?

If a second wave materialises, they claim the credit for predicting in and warning people in good time; if it doesn’t, they claim the credit for forestalling it by prompt action.

Macheath - yes it does feel like a hedged bet. They may also want to make the most of a grand relaxation with as little risk of it going wrong afterwards as possible.
