It was officially quicker going to do a pcr test and getting the result the next morning than it has been wanting for our lateral flow boxes to arrive lol

Coronavirus cases should start to drop across the UK within the next one to three weeks, an expert has said.

Professor Neil Ferguson, a member of the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage), said infection rates in London may already be plateauing.

He said cases numbers should now start to drop in the capital, with numbers in other regions dropping in around the next week to three weeks.

This is because the number of Omicron cases has been so high, and the variant has spread so rapidly, that it 'can't be sustained forever', Prof Ferguson added.

I think the peak from the experts POV is meant to be at the start of next week they said a few weeks back

At the station this morning, everyone seemed to be coughing and sneezing. I think most people assume its just a cold and are carrying on regardless without bothering to test.

I got a pack of lateral flows through the post today that I ordered the week before Christmas. Him indoors is supposed to be testing 3 times a week, as he's a teacher, but hasn't been able to. He'll probably nick mine until his arrive.

No, he doesn't work in a school, he teaches first aid courses all over the country, so has to source his own. I think I gave him Omicron just before the Christmas break anyway - I like sharing ;) Couldn't be 100% sure though, cos we couldn't get a test!

Looks like PCR tests before landing in the UK are going to be scrapped!
