It's the scientists who don't get chosen to advise for countries/governments who seem to have an alternate opinion. You'd think all these countries would have the best scientists that country has to be given them advice....seems weird doesn't it.

No we are seeing more pcr testing of which the creator of the test Kary Mullis explicitly said was not to be used for infectious disease identification...more false positive testing = more false postive cases which are used to justify lockdown. https://www.bitchute.com/video/wOSeTz57xrCF/ See before covid came along had you ever heard the term asymptomatic in regards to illness? I can only talk from personal experience but anytime i've been ill my own body was the first to let me know something was up. But now we have millions of people being tested and getting a positive result but they feel absolutely fine...yes a disease so deadly you have to have a test to be told you have it...crock of shit imo and no more deadly than seasonal flu yet the world is tatters because of it and the real damaging effect of lockdown are starting to be felt everywhere and will be the real 2nd wave of illness.

A 79 year old or a 30 year old ? really don’t see what folk don’t understand. It’s all about saving lives and those outside covid Everybody seemed to accept the first lockdown because of the impact on the nhs. That never comes into it now, even though that's the same concern.

Cade Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 January: WTO declares Covid-19 a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern" UK Government does nothing. No borders are closed, no PPE is ordered, no emergency measures are put in place. February: Worldwide cases continue to increase at an exponential rate. UK government does nothing. March: 1,000 UK citizens are dying every day. UK government finally caves in and orders a nation-wide lockdown. However, it is not police nor enforced and fines are laughable. So everybody takes the piss. The final piss take was when the Prime Minister's top lad went on a wee trip with his family. He then held a press conference in which he explained he had only driven all those mile "to test his eyesight". He escapes any kind of punishment. Public confidence in the lockdown falls apart. Conservative party internal politics then also rears its ugly head and after 100 days of half-ersed, barely recognised "lockdown", the Prime Minister and Chancellor decide to slowly come out of lockdown. Or course, the Great British Public immediately go apeshit and try to get back to normal right away. Government does nothing. September: infection rates and hospital admissions are rising faster than they were in March. Government does nothing. October: Government creates an impossible to keep track of, confusing and contradictory set of local lockdown rules in several areas of the nation, but with so many exceptions and caveats that they may as well not have feckin bothered. November: Back into full national lockdown. Weeks too late and yet again not policed or enforced in any way. Brace yourselves everybody, this is going to be a brutal winter.

So take your UJ glasses off for once and think about folk outside London. The North having to fight for funds yet when the city of London gets in trouble, oh look furlough is extended in a flash. It's shite hammy. Hopefully the SG will use this month to put a knee on the virus' neck. Close Lanarkshire(Example) completely and use furlough to keep the people sane and out of financial trouble while they sit at home for a couple of weeks. UC doesn't cut it, either full pay or Basic income. Anyway, Boris has dropped the ball completely here and his own Party will skin him alive now. Fwiw, I'd take Scotland into lockdown to help England out, especially the North and close all airports and ports to non essentials. No one is going anywhere til 2021 would be my mantra.

If things don't take a turn for the better then not everybody will receive the treatment they need. It's a simple concept. Too many people presenting at hospital all at once.

If Sturgeon were to now bin her own new system and just lump in with them for the cash, she'd be Hibsing it, too. The lot of them should resign and allow for a national coalition government to be created with the speaker of the house hand picking the cabinet, none of whom may stand again for elected office in order to ensure they remain focused on the job at hand rather than ratings and long term ambition. Plan and deliver a clear six month strategy and implement it. Labour supports and will vote for the lockdown. Starmer said this morning that he would work with the government on a national interest ticket. There is a degree of cooperation already. The real dysfunction exists behind the political masters. It's the culture of how this government operates. The outsourcing of power to Cummings and the shady, non-tendered awarding of key contracts and the appointment of people like Dido Harding to positions well beyond her sphere of expertise. There's an awful lot of vested, mutually beneficial and highly dubious interests existing within that lot. There are plenty of people within that who will oppose to their last breath any notion of a national unity government that threatens the status quo.

The vast majority of "positive" results therefore cure themselves as do those with mild symptoms.

Victorian Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) 11 minutes ago, Enzo Chiefo said: I wasn't talking about people in hospital. The asymptomatic people - who are not actually cases, despite being recorded as such - have beaten the virus with their immune system, if indeed they even had the virus. The vast majority of "positive" results therefore cure themselves as do those with mild symptoms. A small minority, most of whom are either in hospital anyway or have underlying conditions , require hospital treatment. Stop spreading fear snd hysteria through ignorance of the facts. More nonsense and squirming. Pontificate about non-hospitalised cases all you want but the matter at hand is the scale of hospitalisation. That is the specific crisis that necessitates urgent action in the way of a lockdown. Hiding under a comfort blanket of a so-called minority requiring hospital treatmemt does not enable the scale of treatment to take place. The minority is able to receive vital treatment right now. But the minority number in a few weeks time will begin to be a larger number than can be treated. You must be a special type of ignorant to continue to miss this basic principle. You've got some brass neck to dismiss these facts as hysteria or spreading fear. What you call facts are an absolute shambles of ignorance, complacency and ill conceived opinion.
