Re: New infection statistics!
Hooray! It seems that things have at last started to move in theright direction with atrend of less new cases of corona being
reported, allthough the direction is still up.And at the same time
the deaths have allready established a downward trend!
This is good news, but the new cases need to continue going
down before we can celebrate?
I think new cases are currently at about 3800 per day in uk
whereas Japan recently published a figure of 2??
So we have some way to go yet!!
Donkeyman! 🤔🤔

Other Countries have done it, now we are doing it.
Changing the basic parameters, every month, is not the best statistical approach, if you need the truth.
Care Homes out, Care Homes in, Other deaths out, other deaths in, mobile phone apps (Ugh!). Other Countries low (then caught lying) then back up.
I've given up on the daily briefings on BBC.
Do we, the public, have enough info to get a grip?
Not yet!

Could there be some 'Social Engineering' going on here. I could be wrong, but this whole fiasco seems like the government are not taking this seriously and only trying to pacify the general public, and give them things to do (diversionary tactics) like applaud the NHS, put posters up and keep Britain Talking, and the BBC are using their usual; we're all in it together, doom and gloom tactics.
