I suspect the over the top approach was because of who posted it and not what was posted, it is unnecessary and importantly we should be able to discuss any points made on this thread without resorting to the mob mentality we get on other threads.
We'll get some more data next thursday on this but there is evidence to show that under 18 infection and hospitalisation is occurring, to what extent we will find out soon enough. Again, the data that is being reported could help to qualify or dismiss any of the 'false narratives' flying about but for some reason they aren't doing so. I may have a very simplistic approach but it should be very easy to break the numbers in hospital down into age brackets.
That, I can wholeheartedly agree on, in any thread. It is a forlorn wish I fear, though.
It does seem as though school children are the biggest group of new cases (if reports of school bubbles is to be believed)
Incidentally, as you commented earlier, it would help if cases were not shown as 'per 100,000' as that certainly muddied the waters for me.
