Households in Leeds expected to be banned from meeting in private homes or gardens in bid to slow rising Covid-19 cases

Leeds was added to Public Health England's list as an "area of concern" at the beginning of September

The measure will begin at midnight and would bring the city in line with rules in Bradford, Kirklees and Calderdale, said council leader Judith Blake.The council said Thursday saw a "steep rise" in cases in the city, with the rate at 98.5 per 100,000 people. The council said the measures for Leeds were expected to match those areas, with the national "rule of six'" and 22:00 venue curfew continuing alongside.

"But the safety of the city and the public simply has to come first and we have now reached a point where we all need to take additional steps to contain the spread of this terrible virus within our communities."

Care to explain how you estimated that 1 in 500 people in England and 1 in 300 in Wales have got Coronavirus. Then focus on Leeds - one of the worst hit areas and state that the rate is up to 98 in 100,000. If you wanna scare then at least get the maths right.

strange how you couldn’t wait to show everyone the Covid wards full of people a few months back. How about a revisit? You could always visit the LGI. howaboutsomerealjournalism

Jesus showed compassion for all. O Lord, we pray that You’ll guide our rulers to make difficult decisions as they struggle to balance the needs of the old and infirm with the needs of the working population, young families, and their children.

Charge all the COVID idiots with manslaughter

Cases were rising rapidly before students arrived. Please don’t use them as scapegoats.

Presumably 'established relationship' couple are essentially classed as being in a support bubble or is that not allowed either under local lockdown rules

Its all pointless. Can't grandparents still look after grandkids in these areas? Have they miraculously become immune ?

Theres 1 name in this that should give you alarm bells

Looking back at previous years, about 1000+ dying of respiratory diseases per week from September, with numbers gradually ticking up over the winter. If we tracked other respiratory diseases in real time perhaps that may calm the panickers down? PS positive tests are not cases

Cheers students.

USISC1 I live in Leeds I’ve been expecting this for a couple of weeks now, C'est la Vie

More Stasi-like lockdowns.

Ignore

🤬

Casedemic!

We have these restrictions here across all of Northern Ireland. I doubt it will make a difference though. The people being careful will continue as they already were and the ones flouting the restrictions will continue to do so without fear of repercussions

Utterly pointless. Given the incubation period, if everyone complied with the main lockdown in March, we'd have sent the virus packing. They didn't comply then. They won't now. Pointless.

And who say's we don't live under a fascist dictatorship? This rona is so deadly you have to have a test to see if you even have it. Pathetic!

Nonsense. This talk of “cases” is total scaremongering lies. A case is when someone with symptoms presents, and then is tested positive. Almost all of these tests are fake positives of asymptomatic people. A positive test is not a case.

What about casual sex or dogging?

1 - Non-smoker 2 - regular exercise, 3 - Maintain a healthy weight 4 - Avoid alcohol or avoid excessive amounts of alcohol. 5 - get enough sleep 6 - To minimize stress, 7 - Practice proper hand washing and oral hygiene. 2 and 3 are very important.Covid 19

Dirty Leeds?

Don’t not comply with the ludicrous tyranny. no
