Some years ago the scaffolding contractor at work took on alot of temps for a big job that was around 12 weeks long
Anyone of the temps that took a single sick day didnt get kept
The gaffer said that he was “ fed up coming in the Monday after an old firm game and nae c**t was at their work “

How many Old Firm games did he think there was in a season?!

51 deaths isnae ideal, considering the equivalent day a year ago was only 58. Granted cases are infinitely higher but those are poor numbers w/ vaccine.

Of course we don’t know the full details but just comparing todays date 12 months ago.


Eta- I was wrong, only 41 but still would like that to be lower

Ive got a team of ten, all young folk, ive had it drilled into them from when they start that they dont come into work when they are unwell, its not safe. Must be the same in construction/manufacturing where if youre not on the ball people can get hurt?

Until they split out died of Covid and died with Covid properly, then the death number they give us is fairly useless. Naturally when loads of people have it, regardless of how mild, it will mean higher number of (incidental) deaths.

Granted today's reported deaths are still to be added, but looking at date of death paints a completely different picture.

I'm genuinely surprised people still pay attention to / react to reported figures.
