It is a bit disheartening to see, combined with the fact that out and about people seem to think it’s all over.
I’ve only had one dose of Pfizer and not even sure I would have the full coverage of that one dose yet, and it’s making me second guess making plans etc now until I’ve had the second dose.
Having said that I’ve got a sore throat and cough and blocked up nose today after a few days of gunky throat, so I thought maybe it would be Covid but my lateral flow came back negative. I checked our local stats on the bbc out of interest and they are lower than they were last summer.
I wonder if it’s going to be like Christmas last year though - we are in Essex and were really low for ages then really spiked just before Christmas when everything got cancelled.
Fingers crossed the vaccine does make a difference and that Delta doesn’t turn out to
make people more severely unwell after all, like with the Kent variant.

Is there any data on stats for under 5s with the new variant?

cleaner...based on logic and how I clean, so I guess very subjective:

1. the cleaner touches the dirty object to clean and then has less contact with the clean object. Thinking of wiping down a surface with dettol - I don't touch it after it's clean. So object based transmission should be quite reduced.
2. cleaners tend to have all windows open, which helps with aerosol transmission.

Imho having a cleaner clean a house where owner is always in another room is of almost no risk with the above. I would probs leave all windows open for another half/hour after she left. Mostly to get the chemical smells out.

Hope your cleaner’s OK @Frazzled2207!

@sinistericecreamvan you have a cough - a symptom - therefore need to have a PCR test, despite negative lateral flow.

@MRex

Sensible heads, my cleaner is still "waiting to see" to be vaccinated and has a secondary pupil son... She wears a mask and mostly keeps distance in other rooms, but occasionally pass in corridors. How likely are we to be asked to isolate if she gets covid?

I think it depends on what she says to Track and Trace. If she tells them you were a close contact, even if you were never in the same room as her and had all the windows open anyway, there is no arguing with them; you are legally obliged to isolate.

Myself, I wouldn't say you were a 'contact' in the scenarios you describe, but her understanding, specially if pressed by T&T, may be different.

The system is open to malicious claims that someone was a close contact.

@JanFebAnyMonth

A school football team? Surely T&T irrelevant in that case, as schools have to do their own contact tracing!

No, not a football club linked to school. A local Sunday League team.

I phoned to pull him out of school as soon as coach phoned me about positive team mate. School said not to SI unless contacted by T&T, which we weren't.

The system is open to malicious claims that someone was a close contact.

It's also open to people not giving away close contacts. We had the situation where someone I know was contacted by track and trace, and isolated, due to a work colleague, who she doesn't get on with, but the two people who had spent longer with him (including one who had shared a car for 30 minutes) didn't. He claimed that he hadn't been contacted at all, so it couldn't be from him. She suspects it was deliberately done.

Just curious to know if there are Delta variant outbreaks everywhere now? 2 close to each other west Cheshire towns Northwich and Winsford started surge testing 2 days ago yet nothing reported anywhere apart from local news sites. Trying to decide if this is significant or happening everywhere. I work with people from these towns which is how I know.

The official answer is that there are about 20 areas of surge testing. In reality, and given that a lot of cases won’t be detected (people may not have symptoms/ may not get a PCR test/ they may get a false negative / a positive may be in the 50% not sequenced), it’s becoming quite widespread.

Delta outbreak in Leek, Staffs. 32 people linked to three school have tested positive. 20 have been confirmed as Delta.

Nothing in neighbouring Stoke though yet, although I am suspecting it soon.

The news said that these cases are asymptomatic or mild so far, and that's because they're in younger people.

I think I'd be inclined to start dropping hints about preferring her to be vaccinated if I was you. Gosh, like a Victorian with their servants!

This is pointless as they can just lie to you, but it is also unethical IMO.

Thanks for the input all. I personally don't believe the fomites are an issue and windows are open. I'm a bit frustrated with her given she also has health risk factors, but unfortunately people don't always choose what's good for them. I'll have to think about the risk to us of isolation, DS missing nursery and lost income etc; I think I'd feel really pissed off if that happened, as well as worried about her being ill.

I hope your cleaner gets better soon @Frazzled2207.

Interesting...I'm not far away (but in Cheshire East) and our figures are higher than CWAC. Also, local news for Cheshire is abysmal. It's either Wales, Merseyside, Manchester, Derbyshire or Stoke!

I have a question about the Wellcome Sanger data please. Where there are just "B" lineage, does that refer to all other B lineages that have not been separately identified in the list but have been grouped together? And why on earth has it jumped from near zero to 1.8% this week?

We are in a gm borough, not Bolton. Cases have tripled recently. No official talk of Indian variant but it must be some of it. No surge testing that I’m aware. Very worrying.

@MRex I suspect the B1.617.1 and B1.617.3 May explain that. I’ll need to look back at the extract file to pass final judgement

Thanks, it's an odd pattern of quite widespread patches in London but absent in Manchester and Kirklees. Some patches have died off. It looks travel related, whatever it is.

@mrex original suspects released. This is the B variants picked up in the last two weeks, but showing their numbers back to the start of the Delta variant. This is from Monday's Sanger download file - although they only seem to update it each Monday morning; but something else to check in case their is a newer version.

I'll post the councils with those main other "B"s

Thanks. This is a good summary table on lineages, their probable origin and their current worldwide prevalence: cov-lineages.org/lineages/lineage_B.1.html.

B1 councils

What is London looking like? Trying to work out if I should go to the natural history museum with my son next week as planned.

London isn’t looking terrible yet but it’s definitely deteriorating, heading from grass green into teal. Hounslow and Ealing seem to have levelled off but everywhere else is up at least 50% on the week. Tubes are busy.

Hm, I might cancel tbh. Was also planning a restaurant meal indoors. So gutted.

I’d probably go in your shoes, but DH and I had our second vaccinations two weeks ago and the DC are in perfect health.

We've only been jabbed once. I'm 32 and DH is 37.
