Why do we need to be doing that.
And if we are doing it, why are we not doing it with the actual age group where it would be most useful to understand if/how they catch and spread it.

To achieve control conditions - and because this way it (probably) won't kill them.
I'd be wanting about a quarter of a mill to get involved in that though.
I'd love to know how well informed they are on the possibility of having your sense of taste and smell taken away from you, getting weird skin ailments and, wait for it...Pruritis Ani.
Is your nose and throat still not working Don? Must be coming up to a year now.
I still don't get why an old bloke going for walk has "captured the nations heart" like this.
Curse my age.
I'm a twit
Are they paying for the kid tests?
Does he burst into a bit of MC Hammer after that as well?
Some pretty clear signs that cases are at best levelled out now in Scotland, or possibly even rising again.
Not sure how that's happened. Hope England doesn't go the same way.
Unless they've suddenly started not giving a fuck all at once, I don't think that would be an explanation. My guess is Nicola Salmond has ordered a testing surge or something.
Bad news for Yev:

Today's cases indicate a dogshit levelling off, even as hospitalisations/death continue to fall apace.
Weirdly though that actually asks another question of our dear leaders, which is are you actually going to keep us in lockdown until 'hundreds' of cases, even if eternal lockdown turns out not to = eternal case drops.
We appear to have completely tailed off in terms of testing, too. Honestly, this swings on what it always will: hospital numbers. Ideally they want a tiny corner in a hospital for covid patients so they can crack on with the waiting lists but that's miles off.
I had no idea what that pic was about and wondered what exactly Yev's interest in CPI was.
Oh god I had missed that.
Local arseholes publicise their very public breakdown.
Take the kids off them.
When I see stuff like that I just assume they did it for Twitter likes.

Things must be pretty good if the BBC are actually willing to admit it.
I noticed an article last night about scientists and specialists (lol) saying the lockdown can ease quicker thanks to the good data.
Watch the narrative change almost overnight.
Change complete.
Eagerly anticipating all the talking heads and Britian's Volunteer Lockdown Army telling us how lockdown works and always will work.
This thread from the CEO of NHS providers intimates he doesn't want any restrictions relaxed for at least another three months. Great
West Ham fan. Husband. Dad. Wine. Good Food. Theatre. Books. Walking. Travel. The Lake District. Not necessarily in that order.
Pure nonce.
I genuinely got quite angry reading through it. I think a lot of perspective has been lost by a lot of people involved in this - lockdown means a lot more than the fucking pubs being closed.
Aye. It also means the CLUBS.
Just recieved this e-mail from the school, which has this beaut in it:
The First Minister also reminded us that the virus has been found to spread between adults congregating around schools, e.g. chatting at the school gate, playground or at the park after school.
A lot of the discourse around Her up there is a little bit Maoist, and I say that quite precisely, not as hyperbole.
It's Team Sauna vs Team Air Fryer and it's LIVE.
I think I've mentioned this before, but in my experience anybody who does "A THREAD" like that on Twitter is a self-important cunt who loves the sound of their own voice and presenting their own opinion as unassailable fact.
I suppose you could apply that logic to 95% of people who post anything on Twitter though, to be fair.
I'll tell you one more thing that winds me up good and proper.
LOOK HIM IN THE EYES
AND TELL HIM YOU CAN'T WORK FROM HOME
How many people in the UK have the option of working from home and are choosing not to take it? Twelve?
They always go for the easiest complaint to argue about. Just like the Vaccine Passport mob always go for the anti-vaxxers but are mysteriously silent on people that aren't allowed the vaccine.
Presumably because they've worked out that the old "we can't just isolate the vulnerable because the virus will somehow still get them!" Argument is no longer convenient.
I don't quite understand the push back on the vaccine passport. Everyone who has the vaccine gets it and those who can't have it get an official exemption instead. That just leaves behind the mongs who don't want it. This will obviously be an international problem as some countries may require evidence of vaccination to travel thereand on that subject I would want people arriving here through the airports to show proof of vaccination. A shitty letter from your doctor could easily be forged.
It also leaves behind the people that aren't even due their first jab until the Autumn and are not too keen on giving up another year of their life.
Yeah, let's force healthy young people to have a needle inserted into them to possibly keep a few wheelchair companies in business but let's not look to address the health crisis that's led to this shit because that would be infringing on people's rights and freedoms.
