DeeTillEhDeh Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Congratulations on the stupidity of Scottish sports pundits - thinking that the protocols for a bubble in Scotland are enough for international travel. Seems to be an attitude of "It's the SFA's fault. Protocols not being followed etc etc". You can have all the protocols in the world but if you don't have full control of the environment it's perfectly possible for the infection to be caught - hotels, transport, the Greek opposition - I doubt very much the SFA had much control over those. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if that sounds crass to you, then you just have to have a think about how the health service works. The price to protect people from covid has been unprecedented because there was nothing available to protect. I don't get where you thought I was suggesting that. I'm just saying that if you're offered a vaccine and refuse it you're making a choice to deliberately put others at risk, and if enough people refuse it will force vulnerable people to stay cooped up indoors, and all these boring restrictions will continue. And you're not getting on my fucking plane. Edited November 21, 2020 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you're not getting on my fucking plane. I suppose you are right in that a deliberate refusal puts others at risk, but at risk categories will be done first so I imagine its minimal and people who are unable to to take the vaccine will be a very small number. So that leaves us with is it reasonable to say Britain is closed to anyone who cannot provide proof of vaccination to protect this population, when the same population can and maybe will be put at the exact same risk by our own population? -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiG Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Apologies if this has been posted already but I see that Midlothian, due to move to Tier 2 next Tuesday, is currently hitting around 96.3 cases per 100,000. Well above the "magical" 75 cases per 100,000 that is the apparent threshold for Tier 2 / 3 restrictions. If that carries on I guess the change in restrictions will be cancelled? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn't realised that Midlothian, and presumably East Lothian, don't move to tier 2 until Tuesday. All the councils that moved to tier 4 did so on Friday at 6pm did they not? So am I right in thinking if you move down a tier it happens the following Friday, but if you go up a tier you have to wait a week? Looking at those numbers, yes, every chance their 'promotion' will be cancelled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought at the time Sturgeon mentioned she hoped next Tuesday to announce they were moving down a tier. Rather than being definite this was just thrown in to offset the bad news that was coming. At the end of the coverage the news teams were mentioning this like it was a given 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 So it would seem most areas in England are likely to come out of their lockdown and straight into the top tier of restrictions according to the BBC. What is it with the govt leaking this information at half 10 on a Saturday nigbt? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
