BREAKING: 10 places on UK's coronavirus watch list are announced

THESE are the 10 places on UK's coronavirus watch list, according to data from the COVID Symptom Tracker app.

Data from the app, developed by King's College London, revealed that 24,131 people currently have symptomatic Covid in the UK. The seaside town of Blackpool is third in line to be placed on local lockdown with 0.23 per cent of 927 people using the app being symptomatic.Tameside in Greater Manchester has 0.21 per cent of 1,904 users displaying symptoms, while Thurrock in Essex has 0.2 per cent of residents displaying symptoms of 1,493 locals who use the app.

Tim Spector, Professor of Genetic Epidemiology at King's College London said that it was "encouraging" to see that numbers are coming slightly down in the UK and that isolated outbreaks in the North West are being contained. "On top of this, the hot weather which caused concern by making many flock to crowded beaches and parks doesn’t seem to be having the predicted negative impact."

What a useless bunch they are. Why? We don't need one, there's never going to be a pandemic and our government would handle it really well because there's a plan for these things.

Covid-19: UK economy plunges into deepest recession since records beganGDP falls 20.4% as coronavirus fuels biggest quarterly decline in growth since 1955 This is upsetting. I was born in Kingston upon Thames where I lived for 8 years and my fathers siblings, cousins, etc. all still reside in the London area. We visit as often as we can, the last time of which was exactly 1 year ago. I had so hoped to move back. Almost like something happened on a global scale that may have had an impact, hmm? It's alright. Once Brexit happens we'll get back our borders.
