This last tweet basically states that 21% of ALL Covid cases will result in damage to at least one vital organ. It is estimated that 7.7 million people in the UK have had Covid. By this chump's maths we should have over 1.6 million people in the UK suffering form organ damage. Yet no whiff of this sudden mass of organ damage in the news or the literature... He is a parody figure. 2 hours ago, scottsdad said: It is 1. The mask mandate is only there for political reasons - its effect on actual public health is minimal (as shown by our recent wave). Correct. Generally in places with less political polarisation, binning masks is an easy, adult decision. In one/two party states, it's just another source of division. See pro and anti Brexit sentiment, etc. It's almost like what the 'public health' legends were telling us in March 2020 and for decades before, i.e. that masks are fucking useless, was right after all! 19 minutes ago, doulikefish said: Took me about a minute to sort it out flight to Norway on Monday Are you looking forward to not having to wear a manky bit cloth over your gob, have to 'sign in' anywhere, or show your health status if you fancy a wee rave? 5 minutes ago, Jim McLean's Ghost said: Less people wearing masks in Scotland.

The mask mandate is a good thing even if a lot of folk aren't bothered with it. Because a decent percentage will follow the rules and give the population as a whole more protection. How well have you been following the mask mandate? Personally I haven't been great at it. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McLean's Ghost Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Any argument which says masks are pointless or masks don't provide protection are anti-science. That is a fact. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandatory facemasks are a fcuking waste of time and Sturgeon knows it but cannot let them go. 2. Just think how fcuking bad it would have been if we hadn’t kept mandatory facemasks. It has to be one of them. My money is on ‘1’. f**k knows, can someone explain to me.. if it is near universaly accepted that non FFP3 masks will not stop the wearer from inhaling airborne virus particles then how in fucks name are they going to stop the wearer from exhaling virus particles which has a bit more umph behind it than just sucking it out of the atmosphere ? maybe if your actually coughing up flem but not microscopic droplets 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugster Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 In all seriousness I tried with passport a number of times and it failed. Used driving licence and it worked but only after fannying about with upper and lower case letters in my middle name. More convoluted than it needs to be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left Back Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 What’s all this about passport numbers or driving license numbers? Do you not just provide your logon details to NHS inform or whatever it’s called? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 I was getting similar hassle with the app. I'll just download the pdf for now, it'll do the same job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
