Isn't that bamboo sans chapeau?

Hahaha not quite, wouldn't see me dead in fucking sheepskin jacket. I have a mate who looks very similar (in attire and physical look) to him though.

Plus, I do own hair under mon chapeau  Cheesy

And he's clearly too sexy for a shirt either!

My kids school sent home another year today.

In work, yr 8s and yr 9s off. Two thirds of year 7 only in.

The number of cases in youngsters is definitely rising. We have had more cases in the last week than the whole 18 months or so before.

At risk of being called a Dick again, I have seen quite a few pubs and restaurants closing today due to having to quarantine in South Devon. This is bound to escalate in the coming days/weeks I'd guess.

Childrens ward nurses are being re-trained and enhanced training for Respiratory devices. They predict the childrens ward to go to black in august. Scary times.

They have escalation ratings. Black means full to capacity, with turning people away.

it's scary. There seems to be more yoof affected, yet no news on vaccinating them.

And i'm not trying to scare monger, just stating the facts. i personally think, the restrictions are being lifted too soon but that's my opinion.

Same with my fiancees school. Pretty much 70% of them isolating including teachers.

Worth noting that none of them are seriously ill at all, and almost all of them have no symptoms.

Surely a big part of this is the immunity debt that has built up to other virus and diseases that people haven't had over the last 18 months as much as COVID as lockdowns and reduced social contact has consequences.  There was always going to be a spike when opening, it's unfortunate the delta variant has made the spike bigger but if you can get it out of the way by the end of August before schools go back and autumn/winter sets in where colds and flu become an issue then it does seem the right call.

If we don't do it now it'll end up being Spring 2022 at the earliest and then it's in excess of 2 years living under restrictions which is unfair on the majority and that's not factoring in any new variant that could come along and drag things out further. Supressing it just delays the inevitable, the EU is a good example of that where they kept tighter restrictions in place to try and keep out the delta variant but it course still got in and now all their case rates are rising.
