Who are the members of this grateful groupthinking bunch?
Who was the one warning what would most likely happen?
It’s very strange and follows no logical pattern. After the abandonment of all restrictions and the rather childishly named, “freedom day” infection rates have gone down, but are now starting to rise again.
A professor of extreme cleverness said the infection rate will now follow an almost sinusoidal pattern due to the Injun Variant being so infectious. It will tend to take hold in a particular area of the country, or group of people with something that links them and spread very rapidly. With it being so infectious, it quickly runs out of new victims, so the rate will then fall for a while.
The Euros, Wimbledon and a few horse gambling events were the drivers a couple of months ago. The surfing / pop concert / shag-fest in Cornwall seems to be driving the current surge. It might settle back, but the coming cold & more humid weather will be a big threat, particularly if “Boris Battles Boffins to save our Christmas” again. That’ll certainly do a few tens of thousands. It did last time.
