Victorian Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) We get people asking the redundant question about getting a small discount for cash payment. They don't know it costs just as much to bank cash as the card fees. Mind you, some people make making a card reader payment look like trying to do a Rubik's cube. Card in the wrong way, card not fully in, big sausage fingers not keying the numbers, keying all the numbers at once. An alarming number of people try to make 'not present' payments over the phone while sitting in complete darkness. "Hang on, I'll have to open the curtains".

Auldbenches Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 If a vaccine becomes available those who have taken it shouldn't be bothered about those who haven't, what's the problem? You can't catch it because you are now immune and it's their problem if they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been strongly suggested that it will need a seasonal vaccination similar to the flu jab. Very high take up of the vaccine will combine with infection obtained immunity and natural immune system protection to build up the maximum level of population immunity. The nearer it can be forced to virtual eradication the better. Fewer immune people = greater chance of virus surviving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scientific data from candidate vaccine trials plus community surveillance will soon enough start to show how persistent immunity will be. Be that infection obtained protection or via vaccination. They do seem to suggest it will be short lived and similar to flu jab protection, which is about 3 or 4 months. Maximum retention of population immunity will be important.

It's been suggested as such and other coronaviruses still exist, albeit there's never been a vaccine for them. It would take an almighty global effort to achieve eradication. Impossible really. We'll just need to hope that there's the same ability to identify and select a decent guess seasonal upgrade similar to the flu.

Suspect that will be a long number of months away, in order to pass the clinical trials and also ensure all the doctors and virulogists are fully on board with the New World Order plans. 1-Speed a vaccine through trials on healthy volunteers. 2- first to get vaccines are the high risk groups- could be done in a week, for whom no safety data is available 3- suddenly there is no need to worry about anyone at risk anymore🥺 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ll be surprised the level of sophistication even the lowest level of drug dealer have. Cash is pretty much a older person thing, the youngsters seem to have mastered how to commit crimes in electronic age. You can buy things like weed pretty easily on the likes of Instagram if you were so motivated. There is obviously huge benefits for govts if cashless society and the crisis will no doubt accelerate that trend. And how exactly do you do that by avoiding detection? Asking for a friend.

Leitch as well appears to be losing the plot and now seems to be rambling about this is all not going away and what you are doing is not a solution, and this virus is never going away, never, no matter what, but we're going to continue with wrecking things anyway as we dont have the wit to come up with an alternative A flu vaccine isn't 100% effective either, but there are treatments to manage the rest.
