@Joe **********
do you understand the difference between 'many', 'most' and 'all'. Pretty crucial
Nick *******
maybe actually look at the data instead of parroting inaccurate 2nd hand libertarian rhetoric
Nick *******
the stats speak for themselves, the death rate IS rising alarmingly in England, 2 weeks after the number of detected cases shot up. Not as many as before (there was much less testing in the 1st wave and yes, many of the new cases are mild or asymptomatic) but it's completely false to say it isn't rising now
Nick *******
you're taking the fact that there could be more cases than we know about because of the lack of testing and extrapolating out of all proportion and logic.
Nick *******
@Joe **********
utter nonsense. if hundreds of thousands of people had it there would be tens of thousands of hospitalisations and thousands of deaths. Unless I've slipped into a parallel universe where maths and logic don't exist.
Nick *******
are you trying to stay longer term or just get a bit more time before leaving?

@Jay ****
expecting based on a hunch or based on info? I'm in a similar boat. Dec 12th expiry

@Joe **********
depends where you look. They're on the rise in 2nd wave in UK. A lot more mild cases are found because a lot more tests are done, so the new cases graph is a bit misleading. But that doesn't mean it's not serious, either. Death statistics lag behind new cases by 1-2 weeks which is giving a false sense of security to some (not understanding the correlation's delay effect)
Nick *******
and did you have to wait for your visa to be expired or close, or could people do that a month before the end of visa making us actually have 2 months to find and execute a plan?

@Jay ****
any more clarity on what that stamp means? they gave 30 days and might give another?
