I await for an outbreak here as the those in Tier 3 flock here!
NEW VARIANT DETECTED!

I think so. You can only see people in private residences, isn't it?
Oh yes, same, but not during the Christmas relaxation.Tier 3 in Scotland is no meetings inside residencies. Dunno about England.

Sorry, I missed this, what happened?
(much better now though)That's rough. Glad you've recovered.Chronically inflamed GI System (lost a lot of weight cause I could barely eat for weeks without cramps/pain/reflux etc) lower colon was so inflamed that I developed abscesses around my coccyx/bum which needed multiple surgeries. It was a grand old time.(much better now though)
But it changed my appreciation and understanding for the heavy lifting everyone working in hospitals is doing this year. These people were like my family for half the summer.
Do we know if the vaccine works on the new strain?
From BBC news
He said there was "nothing to suggest" it caused worse disease or that vaccines would no longer work.
I reckon it's to try and justify Tier 3 a little bit and try to make people fucking follow the rules.I mean there’s already been several strains of the virus, it’s quite a NORMAL DEVELOPMENT no? Don’t think there’s any need to PANIC.

I'd be very surprised if anywhere gets moved down from Tier 3 before Christmas. They know that's going to make things worse and they won't want to move areas back into Tier 3 in January if they can possibly help it.The figures around here are WELL below the national average, if we stay in tier 3 after tomorrow people will go apeshit.

The idea that we’ll be kept in tier 3 despite the massive effort that’s been made to improve our rates (which were low in the first place) is just punishment for the sake of it.I'd be very surprised if anywhere gets moved down from Tier 3 before Christmas.

Can you imagine the scenes if York went into Tier 1 before Christmas though!
I imagine we'll be seeing more of this guy:

In tier two, is it rule of six in restaurants and cafes?
If we moved to tier two, I would enjoy going out to a restaurant once or twice. But to be honest I think I'd probably rather wait until later in January when it's less likely to be busy anyway.
