Happy for you to call it whatever you want.

I stand by my point that if this drug worked governments would be breaking their door down to get hold of it.

Only a conspiracy theory nutter would believe otherwise and I'm not willing to waste time and energy getting into a discussion with one.

The vaccines are only approved under emergency legislation. The stage 3 clinical trials won't be completed until the end of 2022 and the results published in 2023.

The vaccines can only be used if there is no other safe alternative.

Do fact check.

Nicky Morgan, another of the useless cabinet ministers this Tory government have enjoyed for the last decade. I thought they stuck her in the Lords to stop her talking nonsense.

Weird that Scottish Labour have been embarrassing opposition on COVID agreeing with pretty much all restrictive measures over the past 15 months and and now one of the restrictions has Andy Burnham upset they pipe up about it.

It was only about a week or so ago they were demanding compulsory tests for anyone going to the fanzone in Glasgow yet this is what they're deciding is the step too far?

Just waiting on the kids primary school getting shut for the holidays now. Eldest got the self isolation email on Saturday. He's tested negative but has to stay off this week, a lot of his class have tested positive. Three classes in total now isolating and they're expecting more. Can't be bothered with the effort involved for inevitably 'isolating' the younger one so will likely take the decision that we just keep him off for the rest of the week so we can get away at the weekend without hassle


Edinburgh is riddled just now, hopefully a blip before its used as an excuse to keep things restricted longer.

That's our kid off for the same reason. Took her to get tested and was told that even if she's negative she still can't go back to school. 

I thought the whole point of keeping the classes separate was to ensure that multiple classes aren't off at the same time. Heard that eight classes at our school are off. Makes me wonder what the f**k the schools are doing.

9 level 1 areas with higher cases than Stirling. East Lothian having more than 2 times their volume shows what a lottery it is.
