Not seeking to criticise, just want to ensure im up to date Not dangerous. We still don't know how effective they are yet. We will only find out in the winter. However the fact that we have more deaths now than the same time 12 months ago is a strong hint that the winter is going not to be plain sailing. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you keep saying it you will eventually be right I suppose. If we weren't testing 1 fucking per cent of our population daily, instead applying a rational approach of only testing those who are severely ill, how many cases, hospitalisations and deaths would we have? Would we even know there was a pandemic? The word "casedemic" has never been more fitting than it is right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betting competition Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 2 minutes ago, TheBruce said: What about the number of Covid hospitalisations and deaths? They are the ultimate measure of how effective the vaxxing has been as serious Covid driven illness and death is the result. The case number are interesting as trends in any given area, but If all these positive cases don't lead to serious illness or death, then who gives a f**k? Hospital up 34 to 805 people and the ICU is up 6 to 77 people. 16 people died of Covid 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Wonder if they're overcounting tests? I sent off for a free pack of antigen tests just in case they come in handy sometime, will they count them as 2 per week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I had to come home from work today. Over the past week all three of my kids have had a sickness bug (but have all tested negative) but today it's got the better of me. However because my nose is gubbed up with snot I can't really smell anything, so I need to get a test before I can get back to work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues with breathing at all though and after the sickness stopped it was just recovery from dehydration. It's fairly common just now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more that if they're wanting me to play strictly by the rules I'll be isolating every time I have a wee sniffle as that will result in a loss of smell. With three kids that'll be a lot of times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I'm glad some uni's have been giving out guidelines. The wife has been asking in every meeting what the protocol for masks will be when she does the inductions next week and has yet to be told. Edit: Also, what are the other uni's stance on providing the masks? I would have thought that it would come under PPE which should be provided by the uni but apparently not in her case. Mine gave out two (branded) masks to all staff and students last year. No idea if they'll do the same again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afro Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 That Janey Godley video isn't real, surely. Surely? If that isn't part of the Black Mirror-esque alternative reality we're now in then f**k me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Please someone correct me if I’m wrong but I read somewhere that in Australia, whilst driving alone, it is mandatory to wear a mask!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
