Notice drop in overall cases in the last two days - could be delay processing London data, which would explain everything

The lab technicians are all either pissed on the beach or dead.

Zero virology results is a clear indicator that society is collapsing under the pressure of the zombie hordes.

Zombie hordes with an interest in catching a few rays on some god-forsaken British beach. Didn't have that in Resident Evil did they?

The big joke amongst it all is myself and few thousands of other people have been chosen by (I think 4) different London universities doing research with PHE to do home swab tests.

Depending on when the government wants to count the test figures they are sent out on particular days, and results collated on different days.

<rant>So when the government said they were going to reach 100,000 tests they sent my household a bunch of tests even though we were all likely to test negative.

So while you can't get tested in a care home, being discharged from hospital, as a bus driver, etc you can have 2 tests in a month if you are likely to test negative and involved in a universy research project that gives PHE the results. </rant>

Quite. As oversights go, it's a biggie...

Posting a test kit and counting on same day it as a test done is fraud - test isn’t done until result is known.

And lets]’s not forget time it takes to get result - there is a good reason they don’t give breakdown by number of days ot took to do test, critical for effective track and trace initiative.

On top of that I am pretty sure their choice of who to test is bad and just wastes valueable resources that are in short supply.

Zero cases in London?? Good weather comes and the flu goes. Trump called it a long time back.
