There are as many restrictions in Germany and France as there are here. Germany looks like it's going to dive head first into a two tier vaccine passport society next month. The UK government have a lot of psychological warfare to carry out before the UK population will be ready to accept that.

Billy Jean King Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I think Scotgov are generally absolutely fucking clueless right now. If you look at the fact devi one of their advisors is constantly pivoting from position to position it certainly doesnt look like they are getting coherent advice. This is also reflected in the constantly changing reporting and posturing from Clownshoes etc. Gregor Smith basically sold this to me with the thread the other day, they genuinely dont know whats happening. Say what you will about the German initial vaccine roll out and the EU fucking about, but they’ve all grabbed the bull by the horns now and seem to be strategising for a return to normality. Given how keen they were to triumph how better they were than the EU etc previously they’ve got to accept the EU is schooling them now when it comes to exit strategy planning. Fucking pcr testing for vaccinated people? Masks in summer? No clarity on what the actual levels would need to be for a total exit etc, what a complete farce. Isn't the EU exit policy the much maligned on here vaccine passport system, some sort of EU wide green card for the fully vaccinated to be used to gain entry to sport, theatres etc plus other EU countries. Would folk accept that to ditch SD, capacity limits and masks over no obvious exit strategy ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I have been looking for the ramp up from 12 weeks gap to 8 weeks for 2nd doses for over 50s. As announced by the UK gov last week and to be a UK wide as recommended by the JCVI However unless i am going blind the ScotGov have no updated publication or announcement. Anyone point me to what i am missing. Why would ScotGov be stalling this important announcement ? https://www.gov.uk/government/news/most-vulnerable-offered-second-dose-of-covid-19-vaccine-earlier-to-help-protect-against-variantsGetting my second vaccine dose this week. Just over 9 weeks since the first one. I’m 62. My wife got her 2nd one 10 weeks after the first. She is 58. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markka Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Absolutely roaring trade being done at the Glasgow south side vaccination centre this morning. Vast majority of people in the queue in their 20s and 30s. Received text this morning, first jag booked for 2nd June. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The replies to that trying to blame the coding GPs have to do would be a reasonable enough response if the difference between the number of people self identifying as having long COVID in the ONS survey wasn't 250 times greater than the numbers being recorded by GPs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latapythelegend Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 My girlfriends mum just whatsapp'd me saying Forth Valley College have 45 spare phizers to be used today so I am going head along for one this afternoon. Just got told to ask for Audrey and I have nothing more than that to go by. Wouldn't turn it down though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, so exactly the same as what we are ‘going’ to do, but we’re still going to make travel harder for the poorest and insist vaccinated people pay hundreds for tests just to make the hand wringers feel nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone really does yet until someone in Europe actualy takes the leap and scraps all measures. Our masks regs are way more lax than the likes of Spain, Germany, France and Italy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 4 hours ago, mizfit said: Telegraph is running with a story that the UK Gov is drawing up plans for a full lockdown with businesses being given £18k each. 1) I take it there is a magic money tree 2) why? 3) get fucked I get having a worst case scenario plan but they literally just acknowledged vaccines worked. This can’t happen again. Worrying the telegraph is basically government Comms also £18k is almost nothing but it would mean Boris would have to pack his bags he kept India on the safe travel list hoping he could do a "Global Britain" event weeks after India's neighbours placed them on a "Red List" Also laughable to suggest a lockdown when hospitals and morgues are empty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the pandemic is over, those who used to claim to champion migrant rights and freedom of movement, but instead turned to the same scapegoat that is always used in a crisis, should not be allowed to pretend like this didn't happen and be able to go back to pretending like they care. It won't be forgotten. Some of the rhetoric that has been 'normalised' because 'public health' is vile and a tactic Enoch Powell and Nick Griffin could only have dreamed would occur. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
