However delta isn't for PCR tests on the official website for tests yet
So follow the guidelines until they change.

A suspiciously broad list of everyday symptoms of just being alive.
Why don’t they just say test everyday please?

The Delta variant has a different range of symptoms- the last couple of people I know that caught it thought they had bad hayfever to start with a sore throat as well - the virus evolves just like the common cold and flu viruses - during the winter months it will prob be the other winter symptoms.

I know that, and I test at work as well as the LF at home as I would like a covid related holiday like my skiving colleagues have been taking many on more than one occasion.
Point I’m making is the messaging in the poster hints to me that they would like more tests to be done. I’m a cynic you see.
I can get one or two of those symptoms a day apart from diarrhoea or vomit as then I would be in big trouble, but the rest are everyday symptoms of just waking up.
I think the powers that be should just be more transparent.

Two or three of those are normal for most people over sixty.

That what is planned for the 19th July is considered by 1200 scientists and experts from around the globe to be ‘a dangerous and unethical experiment‘ is worrying.

Over 50,000 new cases last 24 hours. Great ?

We've got the free LF Tests and are doing them twice a week. Apart from the discomfort of shoving an extended cotton bud to the back of your throat and then up your nose (remembering to do them in that order!) they're very simple to do. It then takes a minute to report it back via the Government website. Not sure if it helps anyone else but at least we're keeping an eye on ourselves.

Between case numbers, Chris Whitty's warnings, new data on the prevalence of organ damage in people who have had Covid, and changes to travel from France (now apparently a reddish shade of amber), this Freedom Day (freedom for Covid to wreak havoc, it seems) is beginning to look like a total [redacted]-show in the making.
It really is time for some leaders to show some leadership before this goes very bad. Relaxing all this stuff on Monday is an act of reckless lunacy. It is not going to have the effects hoped for on the economy. Possibly might make them worse.
Other opinions are available and will, no doubt, be along shortly.

Looking at the graphs for the U.K., Spain and globally, this current spike is as tall as January’s and November. We were in full lockdown for those two spikes. Thankfully, deaths are lower but they tend to follow a couple of weeks later.
Concerning to say the least.

I hear that although Bulgaria is on our 'go to' list from Monday - Bulgaria has decided that they don't want any of us. That's the thing with borders - there are two sides to them and we can only control our side.

We just go through the same with Denmark. I don’t think there is a chance they change their mind again in the next couple of weeks, the way our numbers are going.
My boss went to France to drop her kids off at the grandparents, I guess next Wednesdays office meetings not happening now.

I wish that was the case. I'm still unable to play golf after 2 weeks as my cough is still so bad that I can't breathe properly if I start a coughing fit and my wife was off her work for 3 weeks, both double vacc'd when we had it passed on to us by our daughter who got it at work and brought it home to us.
I was in bed for 5 days and lost 8lbs in 7 days and my wife was in bed for the best part of a fortnight so deffo wouldn't count what we had as "mild if any at all" symptoms.

In England only, two thirds of Scots are behind their governments more cautious approach, same in Wales I believe.
I fear England are making an horrendous mistake, especially after the reactions of last weeks football fans.
Bound to be a massive surge in cases IMVHO.
