Weather forecast not looking great this Easter. A shame for anyone playing golf but on the other hand it might dampen down the mass moron get togethers which can only be a good thing.

I'd ask the opposite - the links take ages to load and slow down the forum pages. The info is so easily accessible elsewhere. And replicated data (ie cut & paste) is part of the general malaise of the internet .

That’s your opinion and that’s fine
I have no problem with folk posting official stats , doesn’t break any forum rules so they are free to crack on.
It’s quick to move on past content you have no interest in ?

Sorry to come back to this post but it has irked. I was furloughed (easy life!), then returned to work under huge pressure and then made redundant. I'm currently walking the streets knocking on doors for the Census. It's not glamorous, it's not saving lots of money and having a nice time but it's a job. Just for 5 weeks but it's a job. They are out there if you look hard enough and take what's offered.

There are unfortunately many people who will have gone through what you have. I have been fortunate so far, but the future looks uncertain.
There are two ways to deal with the situation. As you have, by getting out there and finding another job to keep you going until something else comes along.
Or, as many others are doing, moaning that life isn't fair whilst claiming UC.
Out of interest, I just did a job search from my postcode on Indeed. There are 223 jobs advertised within 5 miles. I live in a rural area so would excpect more living near a large city.
There is lots of work out there as long as you are prepared to do it.

Same happened to my cousin - made redundant - now doing census work for 5 or 6 weeks - got his name down to do exam supervision later this year. His wife is a nurse.
But I also know low-waged and un-waged people who have had a very tough time for a long time. Every person's plight is a case to be "considered" not "judged" in my view.
"Well done Amanda" for your efforts to find work is something I can agree with.

Furlough is only great if you know your job is safe to go back to afters
If you know the company just putting back unemployment then it's not good at all

Why not have a "Covid data" thread for those who don't read, llisten or watch broadcasts or search NHS / Gov.uk websites ?

Not really. It's on a public format ie the internet .. noone is presenting data as their own ...
Or making profit
Well done Amanda, and good luck for the future. When I was between career orientated jobs, and contracts, in the early 90's I quite literally sorted plastic bottles in a recycling plant. It wasn't pleasant work but it kept money coming in. Not only that, even though eligible during the breaks in employment, I didn't claim 'the dole.' Yes, sometimes there's a need to fall back on the state for help but sometimes its an excuse.

Why don’t you put him on ignore ? It’s almost as if you are desperate to annoyed by him. It would solve a lot of your issues

Seriously if the current Covid stats annoy you that much then just scroll on by.
Why create more threads when this thread became the Covid thread.

Good numbers again today, although Wales data not included. Even Sky News can’t report this as a ‘plateau‘ can they? I’m sure the media will manage to chisel some bad news out of this though.

One stat I would like to see is the infection rate in those who have had first and second jabs
Ie the 3402 new cases above of which x had the first jab more than 3 weeks ago and x had the 2nd jab more than 3 weeks ago

One thing I've noticed (lockdown or not) is the amount of people isolating now compared
In first few months I knew a hand ful of people isolating
In December I knew of 20 people
We haven't had anyone isolate at work since January now I think ..
