I stopped watching as soon as the Biden clip played.....Biden FFS a guy who barely knows what day of the week it is, besides everybody knows he misspoke and everybody knows what Biden said was corrected & clarified a short time later, but the tin foil hatters never mention that, of course they don't as that doesn't suit their agenda.

the Vaccine was never made to stop you getting Covid it was and has been proved effective in preventing you getting very sick from it. That was the point of the vaccine. 
What other effects it has on you is certainly open to debate and line any drug will have side effects.

Spot on.

Same as the Flu vaccine.

Regarding vaccine/drug side effects I’m waiting on a GP phone call now as I am having a reaction to Astrovastin feeling sick is one of the side effects although in fairness I stopped the statin last week but another drug I’m taking for high blood pressure Amlodipine has that down as a side effect as well. 
Both these drugs were prescribed to because I’ve had a stroke in the past and I’m taking them (or not) to prevent me having any more strokes. So it maybe better for me to persist with the side effect than have an even more severe stroke.

Even the average Joe's immune system does as you've just described.

Your immune system works pretty well if you are 20, less so if you are 80 as the UK's death records suggest.

Won't disagree with that, vaccinate those at risk and don't coerce healthy individuals into experimental treatments.

Yes that’s the dilemmas of taking potent drugs for a serious health condition , keep taking them to alleviate the pain / symptoms or don’t and your condition may get worse . I’ve had various side effects from my arthritis meds but have still chosen to take them as they do help in the Long run , well crawl really due to arthritis lol 😂

Yep. Total nonsense and pretty insulting to the Chinese. 

 

It was released from a laboratory. Probably by accident. 

 

What's your evidence for this claim?

Mate, get of that amlodipine asap. I took it for a while and it's poison. I was ill with it. Ask for something like lisinopril and bendroflumathezide combination. I researched amlodipine and while it gets the BP down, some folks get really ill on it Good luck

Thanks for the advice. I’m having further tests for the nausea. Spoke with the GP yesterday and drug review in the near future based on the results of the tests.

There was a documentary on C4 a while back that made a pretty compelling argument for it originating in a lab in Wuhan.

Obviously not 100% confirmed though.

Was that the lab where they x-rayed the bat, or am I thinking about something else. :laugh:

I'm sure it'll settle down, they sometimes just need time for your body to get used to them.

I mind when I first started taking Metformin, jeez, both ends at the same fecking time, stomach cramps you name it, I had it, my doctor just told me to stick with as it'll settle down, and it did.....eventually.

Still mask-wearers stalking the streets here in Newington. 😷

 

Now, I'm not one to bring up what other people have said, but other people often said that these folk are wearing masks to protect others. In which case, they are clearly riddled with the bat flu. Ergo, they should be off the streets and self-isolating and it has been the mask-wearers all along who have been driving the spread of Covid. Selfish twits. :( 

Yup. Still get some weirdos walking about in the fresh air covering their nose and mouth with a wee paper tissue

I'd think that anybody still wearing face masks in shops but more so in the street, will be doing so for the rest of their days.

That's up to them if they want to do that.

I think that was on the premise of people being asked to assume they could have the bat flu without being aware,  rather than being out and about in the knowledge of having it.

 

It's good that you've forgotten that though.  Just demonstrates how these dismal things have passed into oblivion.  You should be pleased.  I'm pleased that you're pleased,  assuming you are pleased.  I'm pleased either way.

Went swimming today.

It killed me.

I'm honestly been feked since I had covid.

Slightly down no energy waves of fektness and today 5lengths of the commy and some old dear asked 8f I was OK.

See the thought of wearing a mask gives me palpitations.

The covid has took a right hit at me.

That's been 3 weeks since I tested negative.

I struggled at work so took this week of to chill try and fight back.

Sorry off loading a bit but just the smothering thought of a mask has made me feel wheezy

Sorry to hear this , hopefully you get fully fit again . Surely there must be some impact on us all from wearing masks , for significant periods of time. ? Funnily enough I got a text from the NHS regarding my covid diagnosis in January . They have sent me link to complete a questionnaire about my health post covid . I’ll fill it in tomorrow .

Planes, trains, shops and a very busy promenade?   Yes.

 

On the beach?  No.

 

We do that, and we know it’s daft.

Mask up folks !😷😷

 

Doctors have raised the alarm over a brand new virus that has infected dozens of people in China.

'Langya' henipavirus — or LayV — was detected in 35 people in the country's eastern Henan and Shandong provinces.

It belongs to a family of viruses that are known to kill up to three quarters of humans in severe cases. 

None of the new cases have resulted in death and most are mild, with patients experiencing flu-like symptoms.

The novel virus is thought to have been passed on by shrews — small mammals from the same family as hedgehogs and moles. 

A study published last revealed the virus was first detected in humans in 2019, with the most recent cases this year.

Chinese experts investigating the virus believe human cases are 'sporadic'. They are still trying to work out if it can spread from person to person.

There was folk wearing masks at the gig I was at tonight. Don't think I could give less of a **** tbh. People can do what they want. It's pretty much what folk have been banging on about for over two years now.
