Jambo-Jimbo Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 1 minute ago, Victorian said: In every case it's too late to be vaccinated. A vaccine trains the immune system to recognise a pathogen and to mount a response to it. It can never act as a therapeutic intervention. I got the impression from the way he was talking that a lot of folks seemed to think that all they had to do was get the vaccine and they'd get better, but as we all know it doesn't work that way.

Ray Gin Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Stupid = being old, taking a vaccine and going on holiday, catching covid and being really unwell Not stupid = being old, not taking the vaccine because you've listened to anti vaxx conspiracy bull****, then catching covid and dying. But it doesn't matter because he was 74 and probably should be dead anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I'm not bothered by it particularly as apart from those who contracted it in institutions (care homes/hospitals etc) then it applies to literally everyone who catches it.

Footballfirst Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) Seems that the SG is preparing for the possibility of doing a U turn on testing on arrival from abroad.

He's responsible for more of the latter than the former. That may be so, but it's always James who's circled upon whilst others makes unsavoury posts and it's just glossed over. I mean this is the perfect example, no? Hours later when the thread has well moved on and it's bumped back for another pop at him. Just feels harsh to me but he's more than capable of sticking up for himself so I'll leave keep my nose out of it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the posts that he makes, to knowingly wind others up IMO, may be the root cause of the issue. There's very much a 'fly with the craws' about all this I'm afraid. As it goes I responded to a post you made, not James. I've no interest in 'piling on' to anyone but will respond to posts that are blatantly bullshit and in the case of the pandemic, quite often dangerous bullshit.

It doesn't really matter who you were replying to, you were taking a pop at him hours after the moment had long since gone. What was the point of that? What dangerous bullshit where you highlighting in doing so? Whether James is posting to get a rise or not, nothing he posted was dangerous bullshit. So if not piling on and taking a swipe, what was the benefit of your post hours later? The post James made that triggered it all was factual and inoffensive ("he was 74" (paraphrased)). As for the bit in bold, there's endless posts on here looking to get a rise from people. Sometimes they succeed, sometimes they don't, but only one person gets roundly buffeted for hours afterwards.

And you don’t knowingly “ wind up “ others ? Accusing me of this . If my views “ wind up “ people there’s their issue . It’s not my intention to do that I’m not responsible for how they react . They need to own that . And Who the hell do you think you are? Seriously . Your Sanctimony is Breath taking at times . Posts that are “ Dangerous bullshit “ what are you on ??? Seriously 😒 Edited September 21, 2021 by JamesM48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shame, as I enjoyed many of the discussions and found it quite a useful source for info. Nowadays, it’s mainly about those with the most fragile egos showing us how triggered they are. Pettiness and bitterness is never a good look, yet many people, as this thread is proving love to indulge in it. Yes “ ray gin “ certainly has a fragile ego on this and started the ball rolling today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taffin Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) Let's move on and get back on topic. What can be said is we could all do without making provocative posts we know will get a rise from others. @Lord BJ summed it up perfectly really. So let's draw a line under it 👍 Edited September 21, 2021 by Taffin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
