Has anyone looked up how many actual cases were notified in relation to population?
Could it be that due to the population size it has run through and larger countries have a good way to go yet?
1.3m cases or thereabouts notified in a population of 5m. In reality its probably greater than that by an order of magnitude. I think the virus would spread in the same proportion irrespective of size but you are right the virus has run through the country at this stage. Another benefit of being a small country is that we have one coordinated approach and there is probably greater flexibility in pivoting than what you might see in America, Germany, Australia or Canada where the response has been decentralised.
12 out with it from daughters class of 28 this week. Madness to hear 2 of the girls sheās pally with are not only self-isolating but are isolated to their rooms, no interaction with their own family within the home, dinner left at bedroom etc for 10 days.
I canāt follow some peopleās thinking.

The UK has dropped the self isolation rules? Or are about to?
Iām in the incredible position of not knowingly having had it yet. Iāll be doing by best to hold off until the 7 day stuff is dropped.

Iām very worried Iām gonna miss the free two weeks off here. Iāve worked in a crowded environment for the past two years, encountered way more people than most, dealt with some people that had to be locked up they were so dangerously infective, and I still havenāt got COVID.

What age? Fuckin madness.
Most folk I know in the same situation just ensured they didnāt use same plates etc. Sat on different sofas
Wtf? Thatās madness. What age? Only time I heard of that sort of craziness was @Little_Lord_Fauntleroyās mate. Make of that what you will.
You canāt be too careful.
Or stay the course with the child as opposed to ostracising them.
Plenty of families I know in the same position carried on as normal, if the rest got it they did the isolation, if they didnāt they carried on.
