What a rude post.
Care homes absolutely can be shielded via focussed testing and preventative measures on them/staff. It is easier to shield a care home than care for 200 Covid cases in a hospital. There is money and personnel if there is a will to achieve it.

Let me introduce our government...

Labour council leaders in Oldham and somewhere else are calling it a lie, Burnham who is Labour, socialist is saying the same and asking for no lockdown. Maybe its not party political, maybe people who care about wider society are now seeing it for what it is and supporting all.

Burnham doesn't want to avoid a lock down, he just wants to extort the govt for more of the South's money.
 
Interesting point on multi generational housing tonight on talk radio. Original lockdown pushed younger people back home into multi generational homes which is now deemed an issue to why we can't target restrictions.

Also the guest said you can make clearer plans if you correctly label those at high risk and those not, rather than continuing with the idea that everyone is at the same risk. That's why people can't fathom a clearer plan

Larger population and I’d guess closer proximity

yeah it’s a really good question and one I would trust literally nobody to answer.

I just hope it stays fairly flat down south and the spikes elsewhere fallback sharply. That’s certainly what I am kind of anticipating and also hoping against hope for.

Possibly we have less family living close to each other.

And possibly loads of people had it first time round.?
If it spreads like it does, we had a good 5 weeks before the initial lockdown where life carried on as normal, if you take that behaviour into a normal day in London, tube, bus, trains , cafes etc then spread must have been massive.?
 
Deaths for the UK are starting to catch up too. We all know there's a lag.

Oh yeah but I'm sure they probably all just had heart attacks or were in car accidents.

Size.
London is centred around a very small area for work and entertainment - since covid started those areas have very few people in, so are naturally socially distanced.
The London population has also plummeted with people moving back to their parents.
London is like Manchester, Liverpool and a few other cities combined - it's lots of little towns and people are staying local because all the essentials are local; everything in central is closed. Therefore public transport is very very quiet too.

How is it rude? I agree with you, but i have no faith that this government has the competence or even the will to do so. So steady on.

Year on year deaths are on a par - 30 percent of out breaks are in care homes again - look at the ages of deaths - look at flu deaths this year

as sad as deaths are they are flu deaths repackaged and because care homes/the govs are criminally making the same error with care homes.

London is more densely populated then anywhere in the uk surely
Admittedly the infrastructure is now on a reduced capacity so they will be a huge help it hindrance depending on your need
