But yes, reminding him of previous posts - some only a couple of days old - is ‘tragic behaviour’. Not at all judgemental. He’s already outright lied today.

Seymour M Hersh Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 3 minutes ago, Alex Kintner said: A highly transmissible variant with an R number between 2-3 leading to lots of employees self-isolating. There’s already an A&E dept toiling after a load of the staff caught it on a night out. What’s your plan? Keep calm, carry on and stop stop shitting your pants every time a new strain appears. WHO announce zero deaths from the Xi variant (to give it it's correct title) and mild symptoms. Would everyone with a seasonal head cold also self isolate in your world because colds transmit pretty easily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbert. Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 2 hours ago, Ray Gin said: Yes. Just urging people to test before going out, and avoid work parties to try and prevent entire workplaces having to isolate. Good advice, Avoid work Xmas parties. You don't want to catch something from people you work with and take it into work where you could infect the people you work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your plan then that people don’t self-isolate when they are awaiting test results or if they test positive. They just carry on normal? At least that would be a strategy and fair play to you for stating an alternative one unlike other posters 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there will be people having to stay at home and not be able to work for 10 days when nothing wrong with them.....crazy People will seriously think what’s the point of the booster if I have to stay in the house anyway so no point in getting the booster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is far better than have to isolate if you are just a close contact of someone as it used to be and has been with Omicron until today - remember it will be the only show in town by next week anyway.

On the Sunday morning I didn't have any symptoms, but had already decided that I wouldn't go to be on the safe side. Which is just as well, as on the Monday as the day went on I started to fell unwell. Went and got another PCR test at 6.30 that night, came back positive the next day. The rules had allowed me to go to the game, but if I had, I would possibly have infected numerous people that day on the train/in the pub/in the stadium.
