More likely to do with it being the weekend

this is the figure to keep your eye on.

Slowing down and levelling as the measures cut in maybe.
Another factor could be the Darwinian culling of the most vulnerable has happened at the initial period.
As others have stated the figures are rough guides and susceptible to manipulation and large error factors.

My wife tells me that couples are queuing individually to get in supermakets(sometimes family) to get around single person rules.
Abandoning trollies once inside and meeting up!
Seriously how thick and stupid are some people?

This is skewed though by the fact we’re doing twice as many tests so picking up more cases. We don’t have the faintest idea how many cases there are and it seems a pointless figure. The hospital admissions is the only one I have any confidence in and that is or at least was trending down.

Though you do have to take into account that more tests are being done. Read something last week about Italy and the figures rising but a lot lower down in the story it explained that testing had increased from 25k to 60k over the previous 2 or 3 days.

Death figures are based on the day the death is reported, not the day they actually died. Less people work on weekends so some weekend deaths won't actually be recorded until Monday, so weekend death numbers tend to be lower than weekday ones.

It is difficult to estimate to be honest as the directive coming out is saying if people are showing symptoms of Covid-19 then it can be included on the death certificate

Should ask them to leave, simple.
My wife had a similar experience. A mum and her late teens daughter queuing together. Got to the front and were told they could only shop one per family, they replied we are shopping for more than one family. The bloke said you still can’t go in together. The daughter stepped back getting into my wife’s personal space. They went in with two trolleys (the daughter went to fetch one when the guy asked about it in the queue). Once in the store she ditched the trolley and walked round with her mum.
Braintree is full of thick ****s though so it’s not surprising.
I saw that, where did that originate from? I’m very sceptical that they can even consider putting dates on things like that. They won’t even put a date on schools going back.

Don't want to be argumentative and maybe I'm thick but I don't understand why a couple from the same household can't shop together ? In fact our local supermarket has sacked the idea anyway so it doesn't matter. It's one way traffic and everyone obeys the the 2 metre rule. We obeyed the rules when it was one at a time I just couldn't quite get my head round why.

I would have thought the risks of spreading the virus were obvious.
FWIW,our local supermarkets ( 2/3 we regularly use) rigourously enforce the one shopper for the whole family rule.

The rules have always been if you can stay at home then you should! If you start slacking on the rules and guidelines people will take the **** further.

My question would be why a couple from the same household find it necessary that they shop together, make a larger cluster area together, walk around a shop isn't a form of exercise? Most shop aisles aren't 2 meters or much wider and not everyone goes one way so why?
Also surely one person can get several shopping lists if they are doing others tasks?

Allegedly what has been discussed by those in charge. Dates are obviously likely to change depending on corona cases. Phased opening seems obvious to me. Hairdressers, small shops and nurseries first. Schools are down for second phase along with restricted numbers in restaurants. 3rd phase would be pubs, cinema and sport.......If numbers go up then obviously we wont get to phase 3.
We wont be waiting for a zero death rate because the economy needs to start again.
Edit...Not my opinion just repeating whats been claimed.
