Yesterday's (Tuesday) UK COVID death count was 293. Still creeping up, and the infection rates are very high with more than one in every fifty of England's population infected at any one time. Still the idiots are behaving like it's all over, with only about 15% of people still wearing masks at my local supermarket - this despite a sign on the door requesting everyone that can wear a mask to do so.
