Elixir Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 The above is why Scotland is many, many months behind the likes of England and the Nordics in moving on from the scars of the pandemic, and that fault lies squarely at the Scottish Government's door for their rhetoric. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like hospitalisations are levelling out as well. I've nodded to this a number of times now, but it simply cannot be coincidence the regularity that data processing issues magically occur around restriction review dates that end in an episode of bed shitting.

Agreed, but as Frankie points out, the ease in which a reasonably educated population can be manipulated into compliant servitude is worrying. Scotland used to be known as a land full of scientists, engineers, free thinking writers and artists and now we are reduced to servile sheep doing everything we are told by a nasty and authoritarian government. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deegee Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 One SNP MP clearly didn’t read the memo from her Leader in Edinburgh. She was sitting near me in row 3 of the London City to Glasgow flight this evening and had no mask on after boarding and didn’t bother to put it on when landing, leaving the plane or walking through the terminal. Now I am not taking any moral high ground as I too had the mask off mostly and certainly didn’t wear it walking the length of terminal to the car park, however I don’t get paid to comply and preach to the public about following the rules. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albus Bulbasaur Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Anyone else that's recently had it suffering with metallic taste? Driving me nuts. I don't eat anything proper anyway but everything has this disgusting taste to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gav-ffc Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Currently suffering from the “it’s not covid” but that’s definitely going around in our bairns school. Regualr PCR (for work) negative but full of the sweats, runny nose, sore head and just general fatigue but because my pcr is negative so I’m fine to work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Thats me the sole healthy specimen in my house. 3 on 1....Out of the 3 positive cases, not one has had any symptoms that would have required a single day off school or work.

Scosha Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I saw a tweet last night about how 55% (i think) of patients with Covid in English hospitals are actually there for something else and not because of Covid. Why are we still not seeing this data in Scotland? The fearmongering is starting again with "Close to record levels of Covid patients in Scotland" but you can guarantee it will likely be the same percentage as England with people actually in there for something else. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's been known for a while that the way data is collected and presented with regards to hospital numbers is not fit for purpose. The Scottish government has promised to provide a breakdown of with v for Covid but all we have ever received is an incredibly limited snapshot of a handful of health boards over a handful of days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddfg Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 The process of collecting data is either fatally flawed and in need of complete overhaul as part of the NHS becoming fit for purpose or the figures are repeatedly manipulated to suit an agenda. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Italy set to scrap all their junk at the end of April, it is humiliating that the last of things in Scotland will only stop a few weeks before the most extreme places in all of Europe, and months behind our Northern European neighbours. The Scottish Government have made us look like a tinpot joke. Edited March 18, 2022 by Elixir 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Presumably everyone testing positive the last couple of days on here were showing Covid symptoms before they tested? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
