DonPeffers Posted June 20, 2020 Author Share Posted June 20, 2020 Singapore with a population density of 8358 people per Km2 (about 19 times that of UK) seems to have a fair idea what there are doing judging by https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/singapore/ Coronavirus Cases: 41,833 Deaths: 26. Socially distanced collection and decontamination of dongle won't be beyond their abilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's lots of unrest doing the rounds on Facebook at the moment due to the app being "sneaked in without permission", but it is useless without any kind of tracing app to activate it. Allegedly....

DonPeffers Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 Big rise in covid cases in Leicester using data in the 14 days up to 23 June 2020. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/jun/30/leicester-lockdown-extension-law-change-matt-hancock-coronavirus "Leicester lockdown extension will mean change in law, Hancock says." "Enforcing an extension to the Leicester lockdown will mean changes to the law, Matt Hancock has said. The city is the first place in England to reintroduce restrictive measures to try to stop the spread of coronavirus after 950 cases were reported in a two-week period. Non-essential shops and schools have been asked to close and people advised to stay at home as much as possible. The health secretary said that in some cases the local lockdown would be enforced by police. Hancock told Sky News: “We will be bringing forward a legal change very shortly, in the next couple of days, because some of the measures that we’ve unfortunately had to take in Leicester will require a legal underpinning." “We will be making the legal change so non-essential retail is no longer open.” "Asked if people from Leicester will simply drive to other locations to go to pubs and restaurants this weekend when they open in the rest of the country, Hancock said: “We’re recommending against all but essential travel both to and from and within Leicester, and as we saw during the peak, the vast majority of people will abide by these rules." "The cases in the city are three times higher per head of population than the next nearest place." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my post above it states "Hancock told Sky News: “We will be bringing forward a legal change very shortly, in the next couple of days, because some of the measures that we’ve unfortunately had to take in Leicester will require a legal underpinning." The MOT comment has me confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
