The ASI paper prepared today and due to be in The Times, Telegraph, i, Metro, Mail, Express & Sun tomorrow has had some quicker impact impact.
They showed that the testing hold up is down to Public Health England’s scientific experts refusing to use anything other than existing facilities & then all +'ive tests being rechecked in a London lab.
Private hospitals, medical/scientific companies and universities have offered, but turned down so far.
A very excited #2 son says the ASI’s paper was sent to Hancock at 3pm. They accepted it at 7pm.
"Well we won and we didn’t even have to wait a day. We’re “the experts calling for the Dunkirk voluntary spirit” and they’ve accepted our report recommendation of using, private hospitals private sector and uni labs all of whom have offered but rejected so far.

A good result, maybe, but that is just the kind of rhetoric that makes me want to spew.

PHE labs have been decimated. Centralised service from London is the way that it is, I believe.

I’m right there with the bucket, Gus, but I’ll need it soon.

Yes sadly many will die
And to think what drove them to flee their place of origin thinking flight through danger a better chance than remaining where they were is to think of nightmares

Same thing, really.
“Herd immunity” is what you have when most people are immune - either because they’ve been vaccinated, or because they’ve already had it and either died or developed immunity.

Meanwhile, there is an invitation to volunteer to take a test here: https://oxford.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/coronavirus-disease-covid-19-in-the-uk-community
It won’t do you any good, since they are anonymising it, but the data they collect may help them to see what is going on.
