Article that echoes what I've been saying in a few posts in the last day or so -
Coronavirus: Is it time to move on and get back to normal life?

Another 40 new cases reported for Bolton today!
Something has happened?
Gossip says lots tested positive from the Bottom Bull up Breightmet - don't know how true that is though but I think it's going to be something like that rather than the 'friends and family' transmissions associated with the Asian community flare ups.
Usually in cases such as workplaces/pubs, the spike rises very quickly, then comes down quickly too, hopefully we will see the same here to?

Probably one infected person walking into a bar - and infecting the bar.

One for Wanderlust - don't know how near this is to you but I flag it up just so you are aware, if you don't already know about it already -
Norfolk County Council's Director of public health, Dr Louise Smith, said: " We have found 96 positive tests so far out of 477 tests carried out." For the full press release visit https://t.co/PCmGtosq8h pic.twitter.com/rDLPVi6kdf

This Greater Manchester lockdown is a joke! As of tomorrow Stockport is not included in the restrictions and i live about 10 minutes walk from the border so i could walk past the McVities factory and be out of lockdown but then come back the other way and be back in it!
Crazy to have certain areas like Stockport, Trafford and Bolton have less restrictions while the rest of the area are still under lockdown. How can that be managed properly?

Bolton had a further 32 positives today - can't see it being allowed to have a reduced level lockdown with these sorts of numbers.

Bolton Council has asked for additional coronavirus restrictions to remain in place after an unforeseen spike in the local infection rate. https://t.co/0TEXoLZYOo

Not too bad here in Warrington, but we can't be complacent.

Seems Bolton IS out of full lockdown despite being the current second worst authority in the country for new cases over the last seven days!!!!
Lifting Greater Manchester lockdown 'illogical' as cases rise
Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has blasted the easing of coronavirus restrictions in parts of northern England as "completely illogical".
Measures were lifted overnight in Bolton, Stockport and Trafford despite concerns from some local councils.
Mr Burnham said it meant boroughs with rising cases were restriction-free but others with lower numbers were not.
The government said it was working closely with local authorities "in response to the changing situation".
Mr Burnham urged people in Bolton and Trafford to "continue to follow the guidance" not to have social gatherings at home.
"We find ourselves in a completely unsustainable position," he said.
Mr Burnham said the restrictions were "always hard to explain to the public but they're completely illogical now".
"Overnight we've had restrictions released from two boroughs where we've got a rising number of cases - in one case in the red zone - and neighbouring boroughs are still under restrictions but with much lower numbers of cases," he said.

" Exisiting coronavirus restrictions WILL remain in effect across Bolton after yet another government U-turn.
Confusion has surrounded the lifting of lockdown measures which was due today.
Health secretary Matt Hancock said: “Following a significant change in the level of infection rates over the last few days, a decision has been taken that Bolton and Trafford will now remain under existing restrictions."

Another 26 positives today.
If you look at the table below and look at the cases under Added 27th August, then tomorrow these will 'drop off' the seven day rolling average and tomorrows positive cases added to them - so if Pendle gets less than 20 (and their trend has been going down over the week) and we get more than 11 (and that's the lowest daily total we've had all week) there's a good chance we will be top of the league tomorrow!!!
