That's the death rate graph, looking at the Zoe app, there haven't been any more reported cases here in the last week than anywhere else - but that's just people who use the app.

Anecdote: my daughter works in our local hospital. Her ward is a non-Covid one but the next one is a Covid one. This week was the first week that ward has had zero patients who have confirmed Covid or have had confirmed Covid previously (it still has people in it who are awaiting the run of negative tests to be complete). There may be other Covid wards in the hospital so doesn't mean there are zero altogether but as I say it is the first time that ward has had none. |

Indeed we are Aberdeen City Council or in my case the Shire. Some streets have got together and cut round about their own lanes, playparks etc butI don’t own a lawnmower so can’t although don’t see why I should as nobody else is doing the job I am paid to do but I would if it was making outside my home look tidy. Pedro it was a disgrace to tar over NAD as the roses there were always a lovely sight. |

Indeed it was LG, shortsightedness by the ACC as usual. I'm the Shire too, opposite end of it from LG though. 2 of my neighbours cut the grass around our houses last week. |

Part of my contribution to neighborhood amenity/ the wilful destruction of nature (delete as applicable) fetcheveryone.com/img/training/17695470 There's still plenty left, as you can see. Across the road, it's even longer. Some plants are maybe three feet high in the former flowerbed. Former, as last year the Community Trust (the "arm's-length" charity now responsible for parks and open spaces) closed their plant nursery, and abandoned them. Some areas have now been mowed or strimmed (some a piss-poor job) but there is also a policy of leaving some areas untouched and planting wild flowers (though no flowers for my town. Anyway, to more direct matters. Went to two shops, Iceland and Sainsbury's From maybe 40-50 customers and 10 staff: three masks seen. And walking back, encountered a lot of people standing about at our major road junction, spread mainly along one road for about 50m each side. Dilemma on how to pass. Took the widest pavement then a side path. Realised they were waiting for a cortege to pass, which i later found was travelling that way from the chapel to the crematorium. |

Regarding mess. Lots of it left in the meadows in Edinburgh yesterday. A bunch of locals tidied it up from 5am this morning and then put it into the number of deaths for an aerial photo edinburghnews.scotsman.com Jovi. I agree we should publish the good news stories. However we cannot also ignore the more worrying news. Albeit out with the U.K. for now but there are stories from abroad which show cases where the virus is on the rise where the lockdown has been relaxed. In my view we cannot just go back to normal and accept the virus infecting and killing large numbers and we have to seek to control this as best we can. The behaviour of the few does impact the many. |
