Sadly, these days, we import alot of our spuds. How far we have fallen 😋.
Still, I'm with you on closing our borders. That would ensure that we'd keep Beast out😁.

New Deaths: 708
New Cases: 3735

People Tested: 6570 (Well below the 10K and below capacity)
Total Tests: 10984
Testing Capacity: 12799
You have to say this testing is smoke and mirrors. The actual new tests yesterday were 6.5k
3,735 new cases from 6,570 tests
Did you mean 16570 tests? Typo by you?
No, it was only 6570 tests
Critical incident declared at Watford General Hospital?
An increase of 20% so the rate continues to drop - 31%, 24%, 23% and 20%
Daily increase is 9.79% the lowest since March 16th
Not surprised given the number of people tested!
I find it abhorrent that the government are now using testing capacity and total tested as the headline figures, when actual tested is 6.5K

Interesting. But I’m treating with extreme caution.

Are other countries releasing their data in a similar way?
Death rate increase has fallen to 19.6%
This is the 4th day in a row it has fallen
31st - 31.4%1st - 24.1%2nd - 23.4%3rd - 19.6%
