The Scottish Government humiliating themselves and the country. Not for the first time during this pandemic.

Thereisalight is just a bot, isn't it?

Gave up trying to gain access to that site. Life's too short and I suspect that they'll be ditched before they even get going.
Thankfully I won't need the passport anyway right now as I'm not planning to go to any nightclubs or large football grounds but honestly, to err is to be human but to seriously f**k up something utterly simple like a vaccine passport website which won't allow you access and to provide a helpine for that website which tells you to use the website, requires a government to get involved.

Worked perfectly for me, I assume it's user error here.

Poor Deepti Gurdasani seems to be on the verge of a complete breakdown over all of this.

She's now comparing the covid situation to Black Lives Matter.

 

Then she goes into a rant about other scientists "misrepresenting" science after 18 months of her doing the same.

 

And the she flings out nonsense like this.

You must be a total diddy to not be able to register for your vaccine details

The tweet under that one from Deepti is an absolute classic.

What if you are a total diddy though. You are an old guy who reads the paper and never goes on the internet. You don't even have a computer.

You are vaccinated and want to go to the football, you see some pals there and it is some of the limited social contact you have during the pandemic.

But now you can't go. You can't see your pals because you don't know how to get your vaccine passport.

I guess f**k that old guy because IT WORKS FOR ME.

@TheBruce ha ha, well played sir. You'll need a big boat.

It's a certainty that the numbers of children and adults with Long Covid line up pretty close to the expected numbers for ME, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fybromalygia.

How does a 10 year old or their doctor decide if they are suffering from Long Covid or ME?

Who is that Deepti ? seems to have lost the plot

Does this hypothetical diddy post on p&b as well?

Latest predictions. 7k hospitalisations per day by next month. Hopefully at accurate as the 200k cases Ferguson predicted.

That's not how I I pictured Oaky to be honest but you must know him better than me.

He phones them up instead and they post him out a paper copy? If his pals have managed it, I'm sure they'd give him a hand.

I think the passport idea is pointless, but it's not exactly hard to get the vaccine evidence.

You have to wonder how this apocryphal old b*****d copes with the concept of showing his ticket. 

Best keep your wits about you or you'll blow the whole caper wide open.

He’ll probably phone their landlines and just hear that ‘number no longer exists’ tone. Hopefully the coronavirus finishes him off. That would be the kindest thing.

That’s a bit harsh. Maybe this will be the push he needs to get a wee starter course at the local library. Unless it’s shut.

To the undoubted medical experts on this thread.

The Flu Vaccination evolves every few months to deal with all the new strains.

The current covid vaccines are less efficient in stopping actual infection with the prevalent Delta variant.  Dropped from around 80% for Wuhan and Kent variant to 50% for Delta infections (Still at high levels for stopping symptoms and illness).

Unless it has passed me by I would have expected new evolved Pfizer, Moderna & AZ versions that cope with the differences in Delta.

Anyone got any reference as I cant find anything obvious ?

The Internet has been pretty much an essential for 20+ years.

Not much sympathy for old c***s who have stubbornly ignored it since the late nineties and are now complaining they don’t know how to use it.
