Just watched it on sky news . Redcar worst in U.K. and surrounding Teesside areas now far off. A lot worse than many parts of the country .
What are peoples thoughts ?
People not taking the vaccine , ignoring the rules ??,

I don’t think it’s anything sinister. It’s just cyclical. The North west was the worst, now the north east. It’ll roll down south so the south east end up the worst in a few weeks. Just stay safe and try and ride out the storm

Exactly. Just before Christmas is was Essex that was the biggest infection area by a long way. South Tyneside is pretty high too and of course the North West has seen really bad infection rates at times.
 
We were late to the the party with the Indian/Delta variant if you look at the data we were very low with infections as it was running rampant in the north west and midlands.

Its just our turn now as it has finally got here and is spreading like wildfire... give it a week or two and it will be heading down again.

the big one is yet to come... London and the south east have only shown moderate increases (like we were a few weeks ago) once it gets going down there is will make our rates look reasonable.
 
I just think it's moving around. I don't think it's a case of Teesside people being any 'worse' at looking after themselves.

It was London over Xmas and then the North West. I am sure the press will give it more air time than when it was in Essex.
 
I've always wanted to be part of something, I didn't expect it to to be this 😂

There was a reported breakout in a busy club for the Ukraine England match, I'd be surprised if that isn't the root cause for this, and then it will have gone from that to the Denmark game etc.

Weird how it’s the city centres that are the least vaccinated . Young people ? More anti vax loonies live there?

If you look at City centres across the uk you will see a similar picture, students, young professionals who are only just getting them now and if I was to guess, a number of minorities who maybe vaccine hesitant.

I’d guess there would a negative correlation in general between town size and vaccine take up %
 
More likely to use public transport, more likely to infect more people in condensed areas, close living quarters, shared rentals etc
