Ministers have branded the new variant a "concern" because it may be more resistant to vaccines - though it's not yet known for sure.as teachers divert resources to test secondary school pupilsOne scientist warned the new variant may mean lockdown lifting needs to be slowed down
"There is one case who the individual didn’t fill in their test card details so we can contact them. They probably got a home kit or a test kit from their local authority. "We see these variants popping up variably all over the world, so we're just as liable to suffer from a homegrown one as an imported one.Three of the people with the new strain were detected on Friday in England, while three were found in Scotland on Saturday.
Anyone who took a test on February 12 or 13 but didn't receive their result or has an uncompleted test registration card is urged to call 119 in England or 0300 303 2713 in Scotland for assistance as soon as possible. "Unfortunately our contact tracing strategy has also failed in this regard, because particular errors were made."THE BRAZILIAN variant carries three key mutations that affect the spike protein.
This lockdown is the last I will stick to going forward every one needs to come together and put a stop to this fuckinf bullshit
How did he get into the country if there are controls at the airport
Murdoch propaganda
Let me guess... you’re gonna put fiddling expenses on the school curriculum.
Julie Goodyear is returning to coronation street !?
I knew it. Stanley Johnson is the rogue traveler with Brazil variant.
Recently my friend's baby was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia & needs a stem cell transplant. Jason & his wife are first-time parents caring for a sick baby & could use some help. If you are in a place to donate or share, it would be appreciated.
Let me guess. Lockdown til April 2025. Only leave your house if it’s on fire.
Stop controlling our lives give us freedom to choose how we act !!If we feel vulnerable we will stay at home otherwise let the country get back to normal
Screening at Airports OBVIOUSLY SUCKS.. GOVERNMENT PUTTING LIVES AT RISK!
It's more predictable than Coronation Street.
Little matt tinycock ready to be big and important again. So predictable and the sheep fall for it every time!
Here we go again focus on the negative not the positive ffs I’m so fed up!
The missing passenger is now infecting hundreds of people
At this point any extension to the lockdown, there should be a protest! Speed up the vaccine if that gives th Government some satisfaction. Covid19UK is here to stay, there is no cure. Pathogen...etc here immunity...crack on!!!
Ok so new variant spreads when lockdown is lifted , back in lockdown September
More scaremongering 💩
SocialM85897394 Why !? Will we hat a scaremongering tv announcement when every variant turns up? Pathetic keep the fear going morons
Who gives a 💩?
It’s about time Matt Handoncock gave he resignation he is becoming a walking disaster
How about admission from the govt of sheer negligence and incompetence ehh? How has this happened exactly? Millions upon millions on track and trace system, borders closed to high risk countries and 10 day hotel quarantine, they need to come out with a valid explanation for this.
On what evidence last time he said there was none .
SocialM85897394 Freedom cancelled
And say
More lies to keep us locked 🔒 away
Harry Potter new adventures
SocialM85897394 I need to check the Wife for the Brazilian variant tonight, wish me luck!
June 21st is looking unlikely again
recall everyone from the flights from the country concerned, the airlines will have their information surely it’s not that hard to trace them ?
wonder which lie they will pick out of the hat from
SocialM85897394
SocialM85897394 This is the start - due to new variant we're staying in lockdown for this year and half of next. 100% gonna happen - we're mugs - so predictable MattHancock and BorisJohnson was going to do this.
SocialM85897394
Oh what a supprise (not)
Oh God. What now?
Goodbye freedom
Is he going to say we are shutting borders I think not
Obviously a visiting virus from Brazil who has come to UK via Heathrow or another sieve-like British airport. Wonder how MattHancock will spin this at briefing today
Shame that a paient is missing that arrive from Brazil he only answer one of the registration out of 2 he should of been block until complete both registration
It’s like an abusive relationship, give a little hope then take more & more away
Funny how it isn’t killing all in its path in Brazil 😂😂
Is that ANOTHER u-turn on the way... bloody foreigners!!
Once we open we have to get use to that again, we might not even like it anymore.
Then why the fuck do you let them in the country knowing they've come from Brazil? Do they not get tested before they fly?
Explanations please on how they flew into UK without the negative test that's needed!
People will not stand for another lockdown...and nor should we🖕
More relentless bullshit
If he says anything about extending this lockdown I’m afraid things may go a tad bit pear-shaped with public
Again I wouldn’t believe a word he says
He needs locking up. As does Boris. They are totally ticking insane.
More scaremongering obviously leading for a call to delay easing us out of lockdown, you couldn't make this shit up.
Keeping us in lockdown get you boots on ready for when we march
