to me its pretty obvious the more you test = the more likely you are to find positives..
and its not just the odd test here and there we are out testing every country in the world per capita at the moment by some distance...

If you dig deeper into things there are lots of disparencies in the figures given out by various people some to suit their agendas others dont take Into account the amount of testing... have read various articles questioning is corvid actually getting worse? Like said hospital admissions are decreasing so latest figures tie in with fact that 80% of people dont show signs of corvid and extra testing is highlighting this ... but no time to be complacent.

UK sees biggest daily rise in cases since 14 June

The number of daily positive tests for coronavirus in the UK is the highest it's been since 14 June, according to the latest government figures.

In the 24-hour period up to 09:00 BST, there were a further 1,441 lab-confirmed cases.

Overall, a total of 316,367 cases have been confirmed.

Some 41,358 people have died in the UK within 28 days of testing positive for Covid-19, as of today, government figures show. This is up by 11 from Thursday.

Previously, people in England who died at any point following a positive test, regardless of cause, were counted in the figures.

A review of how these deaths were counted has reduced the UK death toll by more than 5,000.

Separate figures published by the UK's statistics agencies indicate there have been 56,800 deaths registered in the UK where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate.

Late lockdown - shambles.
Testing - shambles.
Face masks - shambles.
Quarantine - shambles.

I'm agreeing with your assessment of the handling of the covid outbreak. We have failed.

Completely under prepared, insufficient supplies and lacking a plan.

All dreadful.

If those figures are correct for yesterday, no reason to doubt them.
Then how can you say we were under prepared with no plan?

With only 21 deaths (terrible for their families) from covid, and well over 3000 from stroke and heart attacks (in one day), then why would any government be prepared for an unknown human manufactured disease that nobody (apart from China) saw coming?
Surely the main target of NHS planning is the treatment of illnesses that can kill 1000's more than covid annually, even daily.
It seems that a lot of covid deaths are as a result of similar causes to stroke and heart attacks (obese, kidney and heart problems, diabetes) so which do you think the government should be planning the most for?

Why did none of the experts, nor those with their miraculous hindsight, not warn the government, the NHS and the general population last year so we all had time to prepare for covid 19? Remember the 19 in the name means "developed in 2019", so they had plenty of time to speak up about what was was coming in 2020.

Ill prepared in the sense that the government carried out studies in case such an outbreak occurred. Then "stockpilled" PPE in case.

They told us they did.

They didn't.

For the fifth day in a row, the UK has reported more than 1,000 new coronavirus infections, according to government figures.

Tens of thousands of UK tourists in France made last-ditch bids to return home before the imposition of quarantine restrictions at 4am today - with France warning that "reciprocal measures" may be introduced.

Businesses have said they are "delighted" to be welcoming customers back through their doors on today as part of the latest easing of lockdown restrictions in England - theatres, bowling alleys and beauty salons are among those able to reopen.

More than 100 pilots are to be made redundant at Jet2 after the airline rejected alternative proposals, a union has said.

New coronavirus infections have more than doubled in a week in Birmingham, the latest figures show.

The city council has warned "we cannot afford to drop our guard" as the weekly number rose from 13.8 per 100,000 people to 28.1, with 321 new cases.

A lot of increase must be due to more testing done which is catching some of the 80% of people that dont show signs of corvid....

Using the cumulative seven day average of new cases, which the Foreign Office is understood to watch closely, Croatia has now passed the threshold of 20 cases per 100,000 people - meaning that it could soon be added to the UK's quarantine list.

Matt Hancock is set to announce a new body that will replace the work of Public Health England, which is to be inspired by the Robert Koch Institute in Germany.

The UK recorded a further 1,040 cases and five deaths across all settings.

Scores of British holidaymakers have continued to travel to France despite a Government warning they must self-isolate on their return.

A new survey from King’s College London, which took in detailed interviews from a sample of 2,237 UK residents aged 16-75, revealed that if no treatment for coronavirus can be found, 87 per cent would accept local lockdowns.

Supermarkets braced themselves for a surge in online deliveries as half a million Britons returning from France enter quarantine. Holidaymakers returning from France will now have to self isolate at home for 14 days - and could face a £1,000 fine for popping to the shops.

UK's major airlines call for airport coronavirus tests to open up transatlantic routes

Britain's biggest airlines have written to Boris Johnson, urging him to introduce German-style Covid-19 tests at airports to enable passengers to bypass quarantine or risk losing lucrative trade routes.

The chief executives of British Airways, TUI, easyJet and Virgin Atlantic said testing offered the best prospect for opening up transatlantic trade routes with the US by allowing passengers from "high risk" states to travel freely to the UK.

The Health Secretary Matt Hancock today admitted that the details of the breakup of Public Health England are still being worked out, as he confirmed its replacement organisation and defended its new chair Baroness Harding.

Mr Hancock also admitted that the UK was not adequately prepared for the coronavirus pandemic, and said that although Britain has 'some of the best labs in the world' Private Health England was unable to ramp up private sector testing.

Worldwide, the coronavirus pandemic continues to accelerate with global daily death tolls nearing levels that were last seen in April in what has been deemed a "wake-up call" by disease experts.

Experts are predicting a winter resurgence of Covid-19 and have warned of hard times ahead, with experts predicting that human-to-human transmission of the virus is to become more widespread in winter.

Coronavirus tests for travellers set to replace blanket quarantine measures, with ministers due to meet on Monday to consider options that include testing passengers on arrival and between five and 10 days after their arrival to enable them to shorten the time they spend in self-isolation.

Premier League coronavirus cases spike after return to training

There has been a spike in positive coronavirus tests since Premier League players returned to training last weekend, with 14 cases recorded at just 12 clubs, Jason Burt can reveal.

The figures are unofficial – the Premier League is only expected to continue regularly publishing test results when the season resumes on September 12 – but have raised concerns among the clubs.

A particular worry is whether players from different clubs have been mixing together on holiday – some have even, it appears, been sharing and visiting each other’s villas – with many having flocked to southern Europe during their time off. It could lead to more positive tests.

Most clubs have resumed training this week with testing taking place, from last Saturday, as it did so with Project Restart. The number of positive cases is disproportionately high. It is unclear how many are players, but they are understood to be among those who have tested positive.

The one thing that confuses the issue also,is you could test negative on the day before a game,but be positive on the day! And considering the fuss now around people breathing heavily around others,so mask wearing is suggested,but not footballers, who are blowing out their arses,and then jump all over each other when a goal is scored! How many droplets being expelled there then? I know wearing a mask whilst playing is not going to happen,and players get tested often,but as is obvious,there are still positive tests,what will happen when the season resumes,when a player tests positive,will they forfeit the game,as unable to fulfill the fixture due to virus?? As has already happened in euro comp?? Obviously cancelling games will just make the season longer,but to lose 3 points due to a player testing positive is a bit harsh imho.maybe two points for the team able to play,and a point for the team who couldn’t? :old: :bluebird:

Germany has reported its highest daily infection rate for the coronavirus since April
Spain and Italy also logged their highest daily figures in months on Wednesday and cases are rising steadily in France.

Spain reported 3,715 new infections in its daily count on Wednesday and 127 deaths.

The UK is now carrying out twice the number of tests per head of population than countries such as Germany, Spain and France.

People who caught coronavirus in March may already have lost all their protective antibodies, a senior government adviser has said, as he predicted seasonal vaccines for the virus.

Professor Sir John Bell, said a bumpy winter is on the way, especially with the additional risk of flu: "My bet is that we will get a second wave, and the vaccines won't get here in time to stop the second wave".

The Government has urged holidaymakers to "keep an eye out" for changes to the travel quarantine list,after Croatia, Austria and Trinidad and Tobago was added to the list today after a rise in coronavirus cases.

Pupils may have to wear face coverings in schools in the "near future", Nicola Sturgeon has said.

Almost two thirds of workers who were put on furlough are back on the job, indicating that the economy is recovering and that the scheme succeeded in protecting their employment.

At this moment in time i agree with you Allan on all the above with regards to this virus .
The major problem at this time now turns to the amount of jobs being lost and will the next few months and beyond .

Jobless figures are going up for the forseable future because social distancing is still in place especially in wales where it is officially still 2mtrs ! Businesses cannot operate viably on that basis for long.. take here it's been awful weather past week so only pub custom is inside that means few customers ..... and football will lose clubs even when fans allowed in as it be to little to late for div1 & 2 at least but funny enough lower leagues be ok as survive on lot lower crowds and not effected as much by social distancing...
