Previous thread here.

We are using Worldometer, BDO and Dr John Campbell videos as part of the discussions.

Ive been following, ive noticed they havent updated the numbers yet

Only 3 new cases today. That’s good isn’t it

I wonder if Sky News will have the numbers before they update the phe page again?

Local news are reporting 2 more cases in Greater Manchester bringing the total to 11 in the region.

@Jenasaurus today's number have not been released yet. That is just in Scotland.

Jen I don’t think the figures for today have been published yet.

@Jenasaurus I thought that yesterday, but that's just the Scottish numbers.

Today's figures aren't in yet.
I know of 2 in Wigan and 1 in Birmingham.
The others added to the numbers today are from Scotland as they declare separately

Oh hi @ofwarren

Is all going ok with you?

hopefully all the clicky links work

Yes thanks username
Just anxious about these results!

Ken beat me to it

I'm working from home but I can't concentrate, keep checking twitter, the virus tracking pages etc. :(

Joining in as I'm just starting to feel uneasy.
I'm in Cheltenham and they appear to be still going ahead with it which means our town is going to be inundated with thousands of new people all bringing with them their germs next week. My son has has a transplant so is on immusuppressants and his girlfriend is pregnant. Such a worry.

Welcome fellow transplant parent! My son is a liver transplant.

Confused as to the reason for the delay. Is it because of the 24h hiatus, or is that just for the precise locations?

Thanks off it's a worry isn't it? And his gf is pregnant even tho he was told he was probably infertile.

It's been as late as 4:30 in the past.

Stating updates will be at 2pm and then not delivering doesn’t inspire with confidence.

Ledkr I dropped my DD off at the racecourse at 8am this morning (as she was getting a coach from there to work another racecourse). I had to queue to get in due to lots of staff arriving, lorries and vans dropping off food, drinks and other things. Marquees are all up, course ready (know someone who works there). It's such an fantastic atmosphere - we live further out but they'll be lots on the streets who often stop for a chat.

scatteredMama I am exactly the same. Compulsively checking through threads and unable to settle to anything. Feel as though I am just about to have a job interview!

@Ledkr that's lovely to hear because that's a worry isn't it.
My son is only 5 and I love hearing when transplanted adults are doing well.

Forgot to add, but..., to my last post!
