Last week, I put my neck on the line and make a prediction: that there would be no second wave in this pandemic. But I'll admit I gulped when, on Sunday, news began to filter through that Leicester was experiencing an alarming spike in Covid-19 cases. In fact, lockdowns such as the one in Leicester, as painful as they'll be, are the way we're going to avoid one. But you have to dig much deeper into the difficult-to-read spreadsheets on the website to see the intricate local figures. Likewise, shielding patients urgently need this detailed level of information too, as they may need to be very careful again if local cases are rising.
