@Rugeley Villa see how you get on with the masterpiece. It's an obvious record to recommend but theres a reason for that

Where did you get that figure from? The covid dashboard for London states that yesterday 1819 people were in hospital with covid and today 1904. A rise of 85 (both those figures are not yet complete data due to the reporting lag) but that rise of 85 people represents a rise of 4.7% in a day, if your figure is correct that rise would be nearing 10%, in a day, that is not a "small rise"

Any lines yellow or red, indicating parking or stopping restrictions at the edges of roads are valid all the way up to the property line so include any footpaths or other ground right up until you reach non public land

As others have stated, they should have provided you with photogrpahic evidence of you using their car park You should also examine the car park and see if the signage regarding payments is clear The Money Savings Expert Forum is generally considered to have the best and most up to date advice (read the relevant stickied posts)

This was recently reduced to 5 minutes, happened at sometime during the pandemic, I forget exactly when. Which is why I now have a ludicrous amount of parking tickets sent to me by taxi drivers who were only picking up customers booked at that location. The difference the 5 minutes less makes is staggering tbh

You can be COVID positive and exhibit no symptoms at all. You still have the infection at that point and can spread it, though at a much reduced level. That has always been my understanding I know plenty of people who have been COVID positive and exhibited no symptoms whatsoever, they've still had to isolate. As I remember those efficacy percentages (they are about right from memory), they were about preventing hospitalisation and severe illness and not preventing you contracting Covid
-
We're arguing whether the booster does or does not prevent COVID infection. It may prevent some or even most but not all. It may also reduce COVID infection from symptomatic to non-symptomatic or reduce the severity of symptomatic infection It's never to my knowledge been claimed that it prevents infection.
-
I'd agree but that is not "It prevents you catching Covid" which was the point I was disagreeing with and has subsequently been Cummingsed. The booster does not 100% stop you from getting symptomatic Covid
-
No, you edited it to say something completely different. The evidence is all there. Would you like a bigger spade?
-
First two words of what you wrote "It does" (as evidenced in my quote.) You've subsequently edited it to say something completely different (21 minutes AFTER I quoted it). You are Dominic Cummings, I claim my £5
-
I presume the data is subject to exactly the same reporting lag as the rest of the country. the case numbers for the last 5 days cannot yet be considered accurate
-
You've literally written that it does prevent you contracting covid, then immediately quoted at statistic that says it doesn't Someone with non-symptomatic COVID (which the booster does not prevent) is still capable of spreading the virus (at a much reduced rate) If something prevents 70-75% of symptomatic cases that means that it doesn't prevent 25-30% So you are incorrect in saying that it does prevent you contracting Covid, when quite clearly it doesn't. It gives you a better chance of having milder symptoms, thats it. No prevention
-
No, it doesn't. You can't use models of community transmission and apply them to staff in hospitals, the world just doesn't work like that The booster does not prevent you contracting COVID
-
This is just false, it doesn't need exponential growth to get NHS staff catching it, they are on the frontline, hospital admissions are rising, they are working in the epicenter of Covid. Hospital staff will still be contracting covid regardless of the growth curve, even if the growth curve is flat
