NHS 10-day Covid warning as cases, deaths and hospitalisations surge
Current Covid transmission is higher than it has been throughout 90.5% of the pandemic. If the U.S. was still testing & reporting data, we would be reporting over 9 MILLION new cases each week. Since we’re not, the official number is like 1.2 million new cases each week.…

“Only significant health conditions that cause students to be absent for around five or more consecutive class days will be approved. This includes ‘severe communicable diseases that require isolation.’ While this would have included COVID-19 a few years ago when a 14-day isolation period was expected, new CDC guidelines only require isolation until the person is fever-free for 24 hours with no fever-reducing medicine.”

Why has COVID been so much worse this summer? The health belief model has the answer
Why has COVID been so much worse this summer? The health belief model has the answer

“This is the biggest summer wave because people are under-vaccinated and have stopped taking other precautions like distancing or wearing masks. And the reasons why we’re not taking these important risk-reduction behaviours is because many of us believe that COVID is over, or, if not over, that it’s not a big deal…

“With the toll of new COVID-19 infections regularly topping 1 million a day and weekly deaths creeping toward the 1,000 mark, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has launched a campaign aimed not at protecting the public from this ongoing pandemic, now in its fifth year, but at washing its hands of responsibility.”
