We had a big spike in the UK yesterday. Jumped from the mid 30s to the 80s in just one day. With a jump like that my hunch is that it was more to do with detection than infection but I'm not sure what would have changed to cause it. Also., I guess a 100+% jump from a very small sample can just be a statistical anomaly. Pretty startling though.
A friend of mine has just gone into self isolation. He's fairly sure he's just got a head cold but had just come back from Spain so he's not taking any chances. (He's young and fit so not really in any danger even if he is a genuine case).
