1/3 Confusing news update from Dr Linda de Caestecker of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde h/t @ChrisMcEleny : “When we examine the rate per 100,000 population it is highest in West Dunbartonshire where many cases relate to family gatherings and parties." So far so good....
2/3 but then..." The next highest rate is in Glasgow City where more cases are associated with visits to bars and restaurants. Only the Inverclyde rate is remaining relatively low at present." Does this mean more cases than at-home transmission?
3/3 I've asked for clarification from the board's press office but was told nothing further was available. Does this contradict the previous message that infections were happening at home and not hospitality? This makes it hard to report public health messages responsibly
