Can just go to their local chemist and get paracetamol Why do people always hear what they want to hear and cling to that unthinkingly ? The Omicron mutation is still relatively unknown, there's no long term data for it. It's far from certain it's less severe. How many times does this need to be said ?

The "R2" rate is what surprised/shocked me , although I'm not expecting the usual talking heads on here to grasp the significance of that as they mutter about death rates "only" being "x" and hospital admissions are falling.

My third vaccine status has also appeared on the system. My wife had her booster about 6 weeks ago and still nothing on hers🤷🏻♂️ I don’t think we will see any increased restrictions this afternoon, more an update on ‘thinking’ and urging increased ‘caution’. The route out of COVID was always going to have bumps, but by in large, the plan is still on target. Vaccinate to live our life’s and it appears to be working, even if omicron sets things back a bit (I’m personally optimistic we’ll get through with out too much regression along the exit strategy) it will only be temporary. Hopefully, the incoming data gives us the reassurance govts are looking for. We really do need to get the rest of the world jabbed up and imo need to bump that up our agenda.

I could be wrong but I think it was they are now at the point that there won't be separate advice for Omicron and if a member of your household tests positive you would need to isolate even if you were fully vaccinated and had a negative test.

However if you were a contact but not in their household if someone you could test out of isolation New isolation rules Ms Sturgeon outlines new rules around self-isolating. She says given that Omicron is becoming dominant, the rules must change. From tomorrow, the advice is that all household contacts of any confirmed Covid case should isolate for 10 days regardless of vaccination status - even if they initially get a negative PCR test. Ms Sturgeon says this is essential to ease transmission. However, some exemptions will be made for critical services. Non-household contacts should isolate pending a PCR result. If it is negative, they can leave isolation at this point as long as they are double vaccinated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
