It really is random though isn't it. I've just learned my neice has picked up Covid 19 after settling into her shared student house in Oxford. Before she was notified that her housemate had tested positive, she had returned home visiting her mum and dad. The latter had tested positive that he had already had C19 around March, in May. My sister tested negative at that time inspite of close contact. My brother in law`s a multiple Stent patient, and mum's a lifelong asthmatic. They're still waiting for their 72hr test result, having been tested Tuesday morning. None of the involved parties are reckless or careless people. Sobering and bewildering, good luck with the families results.

Too much to hope that her husband has jumped in the lake I suppose.

The Welsh Gov are putting our town into lockdown from Saturday 18.00 8 out of 10 cases in Carmarthenshire are linked to our town, Llanelli. The majority of cases are linked to socialising without social distancing rules. I expected further lockdowns at some point so no big surprise, just annoying. It would be interesting to know what action is/has taken place against those causing this local spike. So, a few irresponsible idiots have caused 35,000 people to be put into lockdown. There is a local rumour that one man was in a pub with a few mates and admitted he had tested positive but as he had no symptoms he decided the test was false. I wonder where he trained to be an expert in Epidemiology? Barnard Castle?

Been to Cardiff, Swansea and Port Talbot area in the past two-three weeks and have to say that in petrol stations etc hardly anyone wore a mask, whereas in Essex & London I'd say 90% plus are wearing them. Might of just been where I went and not indicative of Wales as a whole ?

What rules are they breaking? Ok, maybe none In this case, unlike his advisors in the past, but irresponsible and not setting the good example they should be. The point was in I would love to return to Italy's lakes but it would be completely irresponsible under the current circumstances I feel.

What rules are they breaking? "Caesar's wife must be above suspicion" The current rules in Italy are that you do not have to wear a mask in the open unless you are near other people (except someone who lives in the same house) or in a closed public space: office, shop, hotel, etc. You can remove the mask in a restaurant or bar provided you maintain social distance, and the service providers must sanitise tables etc. There are plenty of photos which show Miss Symonds in company with others without even the shadow of a mask. The fact that BoJo was recently offensive towards Italy and Italians just puts the cherry on the cake. It has not gone unnoticed in Italy I can assure you. If you scroll back through this thread you will find that I was critical of overseas visitors to Italy that were not wearing masks. It is almost as though they believe that the virus takes a holiday break too! This is a typical example of what I have been on about. For me she should have had her holiday at Brighton or somesuch. I would question the very selfish and arrogant attitude of people such as Miss Symonds who are prepared to disregard the well being of others. Even though she has had Covid and come out the other side it is not to say that she can not be reinfected and be a sane carrier. As I previously indicated a high number of new infections in Italy have been traced to tourists or Italians returning from other countries.
