There's rather unhelpful,  contradictory quotes being attributed to WHO sources.  I have seen those kind of thoughts but also more cautionary quotes as well. 

 

When you consider that some countries,  especially in Africa,  have barely done any vaccinations at all,  it seems to present the probability of an ongoing or longer term reservoir of susceptibility and/or opportunity of viral evolution.  Perhaps not too much of an issue on the working assumption that infection can replace vaccination as a population wide immunisation process.

WTF are you cretins on about?  

 

When someone reaches the stage where they have a phobia about reading anything that doesn't strike a particular tone,  they should probably fill their time with something else instead.  Watch cartoons or play with a colouring book or something.  Have a plate of mashed up rusks and milk.

Here,  here,  you guys could start your own thread.  The all new coronavirus pandemic,  definitely ending soon thread.  Only nice,  mutual validation things allowed.  

[Ex member of the SaS]

Genuine question, they claim cases are increasing in schools, right? Have they taken into account the number of pupils using soft drinks to give a false reading so as to avoid going to school? 

Until they can give accurate figures and guarantee the results are true, they are once again giving out false information. 

I noticed on the BBC recently after they quoted the cases after 28 days rubbish they put in a caveat that not all had covid. So if they feel the need to put that in the statement why are they still using false figures in the first place?

Oh my word, is that the same WHO who claimed they investigated and found nothing linking this with Wuhan? Whilst I agree this " pandemic " will end and we will get on with living with Covid ( as we did with flu ) if WHO said it was night I would look out the window to confirm.

Genuine answer - they have taken that into account and only report the cases that were not doctored with soft drinks, I believe the used the SNP's state secret police to do the investigating. However even though over 90% of those dying are from orange juice doctored Covid tests Nicola Sturgeon in a power crazy rant has insisted we have another lockdown to stem the flow of fake Covid Covid deaths.........

You're right mate. It's ridiculous.

 

For all we know it could be 40% covid, 15% Irn Bru, 9% Fruit Shoots, 23% Carabao, 30% Dandelion & Burdock.

 

We have a right to know.

Or is she still selfishly wearing her wee cotton tartan face covering because it looks pure belting?

I think other vocations should take a similar approach and dispense with believing in their training.

Garage mechanics that stop believing in putting oil into your engine. Big oil, just a con mate to make money, you don't need it.
Butchers that stop believing in cross-contamination and bundle up your cooked ham with your mince. Load of crap that Louis Pasteur mate!  

I look forward to hospitals saving the taxpayers a fortune in health spending, and hooking patients up to bags of anything they have handy. flash liquid, the next an IV of vimto, horse dewormer. Maybe they could look up popular podcasts and FB for ideas.

Science? Who cares, we're fed up of experts after all.

8 week sentence is a joke.  The guy's got at least 26 previous convictions.  Imagine being so out of control that you think you're entitled to intimidate / alarm someone in the street and physically assault him by grabbing round the neck.  A premium should be added due to the victim being a high profile key official who would already be on alert to potential bad feeling towards him.  He had already been harrassed in the street in the past.

 

All in all these two arseholes should be doing 3 or 4 years.

Omicron not so mild amongst the schools.

A bit late , I know, but our local high school down in here in relatively rurual England has 1/3 of its pupils off sick with Omicron, 9 kids in my daughter's class at a nearby primary school are off sick.

The local Uni campus has over 200 cases and continues to rocket ever upwards. (150 the week previous). 

The infection rates in my area are 50% higher than the average in England.

Happy days.

The latest ONS Infection Rates survey estimates England and Northern Ireland at 1 in 20, Wales and Scotland at 1 in 30.

 

Country	%age with covid	people  with covid	ratio  with covid
England	4.82	2,629,400	1 in 20
Wales	3.27	99,500	1 in 30
Northern Ireland	5.26	96,500	1 in 20
Scotland	3.11	163,600	1 in 30

 

Alternatively, just to upset Willie Rennie, Scotland has a 35% lower rate than England, or England has a 55% higher rate than Scotland.

 

The daily reported rates are much more aligned to population shares though.

Well there’s zero I can do about these deaths so ignoring them or not has no impact at all . There are more likely more deaths from other reasons in that period too . All very sad . It’s not a competition though.
