Captain Tom's donations seem to have taken on a life of their own and surge onward - £21m currently if you factor in the gift aid.

Meanwhile a wee Scottish Grannie is emerging to perhaps rival his stunning effort.

My local hospital on the Upper East side, Lenox Hill Hospital, blasts out "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles on the hospital PA system every time a recovered patient is wheeled out onto the street. I saw this on the BBC America news tonight with all the hospital staff cheering and it's incredibly moving

Funny how the press don’t report these figures though !
A certain amount of the press playing the public into hearing the news that they want us to hear to suit their agenda!

Posted in the main thread but also relevant here, COVID hospital occupancy down by 5% in 24 hours.

I’m watching the press conference.....the ‘breaking’ ticker is simply repeating the death number. The declining numbers of people in hospital with Covid (now clearly a trend, and becoming quite steep) should also be highlighted........

Indeed, the vast improvements in the hotspots of London, Midlands and North West looks promising and will lead to a fall in fatality numbers soon hopefully, especially with the time lag on the reporting of some cases.

They won’t report that as its good news, they don’t want you to hear positives !
