The Internet Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Pretty positive news about a vaccine in amongst it all. Its possible a vaccine could be available to a limited number before the end of the year but likely to be the first half of next year. That's sooner than I expected tbf. If we can get it to the most vulnerable by the end of the year that should change a lot of the approach as they're obviously planning another lockdown right now.

It’s a matter of life and death If having a child round to play in my garden is a matter of life and death, I can only assume the government are indulging in mass genocide of an unprecedented scale by sending ****ing thousands of them in to schools to sit inside all day. Maskless at that! Just think. All those thousands and thousands of people, in enclosed spaces, mask less and breathing on each other. Must send you tonto.

Not convinced by that plan at all. Im not sure Bojo is a man of his word. Its looks like a lockdown is coming, albeit might have a different name. Haha. No, certainly not a man of his word but all the noises coming out of No.10, according to reports, are that he had ruled out any kind of full lockdown.

JudyJudyJudy Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 4 hours ago, Lord BJ said: The alleged circuit break, which appears just to.be lockdown with a nice new name, is meant to last 2 weeks. I don’t see a way it can only be 2 weeks. Allegedly it take 2+ weeks for lags to filter through. So it would be over 2 weeks just due to the data to come through, to understand if it’s worked.. Whilst, I struggle to think of any restrictions that have been as short of 2 weeks. We might see a gradual release of the circuits break. Maybe schools go back after, 2 weeks, we then have another couple of weeks before other stuff gets released. If it happens I expect that it will extended to Christmas time if not beyond in some shape or form. Maybe a lifting of some restrictions to enable Christmas to happen. I remember when politicians said that a second lockdown would be the most damaging thing we can do. Yet here we are, with what feels absolutely no effort to avoid it. Particulary when the U.K. govt has struggled to get essential Task like testing under control or even develop a coherent strategy around this The govt constantly witters on about how everyone must do there bit. A shame the cant do their bit. None of the politicians have the balls to argue for no second lockdown . Too frightened to take a risk . Cowards really . They appear to want to tank the economy and long term mental health and well being of people with continued lockdowns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graygo Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 2 hours ago, Costanza said: My issue with this statistic is that it is a binary outcome of surviving or dying with Covid. Not enough consideration in my view is given to "Long Covid". There are reportedly tens of thousands of then healthy people who are still suffering months after covid and suggests to me that a herd immunity approach would just exacerbate this, especially if we don't have specific measures to reduce spread and viral load. https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-more-than-half-of-covid-19-patients-experience-ongoing-fatigue-study-finds-12074119 Tens of thousands sounds like a big number but with a population of 60 odd million it would make very little difference to those percentages.

Why are they not pressed about symptoms , tests that are a "bit rubbish", false positives, hospital admission rates that are very low?? All they talk about is cases and ridiculous graphs?

Victorian Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 If there genuinely is a high confidence expectation of a large scale vaccine in say 6-9 months time then the measures do have a purpose and strategy.
