Yeh it's just we've seen similar numbers every week but then a big leap in the weeks around Christmas/New Year where we've seen footballers on social media flaunting rules and bubbles. Have to remember though PL is multicultural and lots of the players will have very large families that all spend holidays together as is cultural tradition.
think it’s more to do with the new strain being between 50 & 70% more transmissible than anything else.
