how the f**k has north lanarkshire not reached herd immunity yet?

Don't understand it either, not surprising to see the Highlands taking off now with them being hardly hit by previous variants, but there doesn't seem to be any pattern re immunity.

Is it possible the vaccine passport won't get through the Scottish Parliament as Greens are opposed to it as well as all other opposition parties so would be 64 - 64?!

The Tories London masters are very likely to bring in the same thing soon, so they could vote for it or abstain.

The SNP themselves are opposed to it, however believe that they have no option as must be seen to be doing something.

In some respects it would be ideal if it didn't go through as then the SNP would have the "out" of blaming the opposition should things really go to fcuk.

Don’t think the Greens can oppose them.  Is Coronavirus measures not one of things they aren’t allowed to question as part of the deal with the SNP?  Cynics might say they weren’t proposed before now because the votes weren’t guaranteed.

Would be funny if the deal fell apart at the first hurdle though.

Health Secretary Humza Yousaf says the benefits of vaccine passports for entry to nightclubs and other large events outweigh the concerns and are preferable to another lockdown.

The falsest of false dichotomies.

People need to start lobbying their SNP MSPs in the hope of creating a backbench rebellion.

Read a post online re Vaccine Passports in Denmark - apparently you can temporarily activate one on the app if you've had a negative PCR but not been jagged? 

That was my understanding.  It wasnt a vaccine passport but a Covid pass.  Im not sure exactly what you needed it for but it was valid for different lengths of time depending on your circumstances eg negative PCR only got you 72 hours or something, positive test somewhere between 1-3 months and vaccination 6 months (figures could be totally wrong).

Eh? Get involved in politics? When it's much more effective to post on P&B? You're joking, yeah ? Way to misjudge the room, mate.

A good few people have contacted MSPs and mentioned it on here, mostly to sneering responses about how it will make no difference tbh. 

 

A lot of people are mad keen to avoid "politicising the pandemic" when what they really mean is, dont question the performance of scotgov in the greatest crisis anyone (bar the few remaining from WW2) has ever seen no matter how inept, contradictory and shambolic, because they want Scotland to be independent.
