Most infections will incubate and become symptomatic within 2-5 days. (Ignore the 10-14 days statistics, this is just noise in data and represents 1-2% of cases, and isn’t accurate)
3-4-5 Mar is considered the beginning.
Public informed on 14th March, 10 days after the initial infections.
11 cases, all/nearly all linked.
Prophylactic measures not done until 15-16th March.
The reaction to cases was too slow, and many of the students have been allowed – for nearly 2 weeks – to travel, mingle, and spread it further. I am not surprised cases are growing. It has been able to get a foothold.

What’s worst case scenario here guys surely not Covid 2.0 with Lockdowns, Masks, Social distancing?
The Furlong wouldn’t be a thing again either we can’t afford It.

This is starting to get worrying, no? It’s spreading way more than they realise especially compared to previous outbreaks?

At least we are detecting them.We just have to hope people in the affected area take the warning seriously and get the vaccine.

So we don’t require visa residents to have vaccines for these diseases..? Yikes.

Is it really spread via coughing/sneezing too?
We’re fucked, especially as Covid damaged the immune system in pretty much everyone.

I wonder how Streeting is going to handle this one. Just yesterday he said that there are plenty of jabs available, while pharmacies warned about shortages. But yeah, I’m sure he’s ready to become next PM together with Rayner even…

Meningitis vaccine has been part of standard inoculation for children since 2015. Are the cases we seeing people who are from abroad or did not get the vaccine as a child ?

My prediction is that cases will go up and then peak and then will come down again.
