I don't see the similarity from that perspective. My recollection is also that there were extensive adverts about how to avoid Aids. You're right to the extent there was a lunatic fringe who thought only "queers" or "junkies" could get it. You're not going to catch aids walking down a supermarket aisle, unlike covid which is a major difference in terms of precautions to reduce the spread.

She also better not set out any changes clearly and specifically. 😡 If she doesn’t go off on a tangent about CBeebies land, do some vehicle impressions, use some daft analogy or throw in some latin phrases then I will be raging! 🤬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 None of the 6 Weegie plaguers have any links to travel from South Africa. It's community transmission. There's probably hundreds or even thousands of cases in the UK already. It was going to get in anyway. The sooner they get to study whether or not it's clobbering Delta the better. The Pretorian doctor hasn't changed her information about symptoms. Still seeing mild illness but it will take a few weeks to see how it progresses.

They want people to wear masks but won't let them in to buy them, despite presumably selling them. Somewhere has to be the place that lets you in took buy one.

We'll find out soon enough It might be that it being identified, here or elsewhere, has been delayed because of a larger volume of mild symptoms. Because most of these have been assumed to be colds or other bugs and people haven't sought tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
