I hope they continue the phases approach, youngest classes first and the most vulnerable. And slowly reintroduce it, the routine testing will help as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One minute they are falling over themselves to explain how NS couldn't possibly have locked down earlier because the WM furlough scheme wasn't in place, the next they are sneering at the idea that lockdown wouldn't be able to continue if it is removed. Make your mind up If someone put 50p in you I feel like this is one of the stock phrases we'd get. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Jane Merrick... "While these expanded symptoms are not specifically associated with the E484K mutation, officials want to increase testing to catch more cases".....a fishing trip to keep numbers up surely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it 100% of that cohort full stop or is it 100% of that cohort who can have and who want the jag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get this attitude, as much as a few people on here moan, we all know that the first things the government will open up are schools before anything else so the quicker we can get the first step done and hope it goes well then the quicker all the other restictions will be loosened and we can get back to normanl.

Lazy sods mostly intent of generating click bait material from trawling the very worst of social media. There’s plenty of good journalists in the UK. Quite rightly none of them lower themselves to the drivel in mainstream newspapers. People just need to broaden their reading horizons.

madwullie Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 1 hour ago, Bob Mahelp said: I'll go for optimistic. It's an interesting scenario at the moment. The Tories are far more push and pull with restrictions than an (ironically) hyper-conservative Scottish government. The political pressure to lift lockdown weighs heavier on Johnson (who is naturally opposed to restrictions) than it does on Sturgeon, who is naturally cautious in nature. Because of that, it would seem likely that it'll be Westminster who will be the first to announce an easing of lockdown. That will heap enormous pressure on Sturgeon to do the same in Scotland, especially when cases, and hospitalisation and death rates are well below the rest of the UK. I don't know if we'll all be getting haircuts at the beginning of March. My gut feeling says that we're probably going to be stuck with a full lockdown for another 5 or 6 weeks. I desperately hope I'm wrong, but it seems that it's the zero covid fanatics who have the First Ministers ear just now, so she's quite happy to keep on quoting them as a reason to keep lockdown in place. I do understand your broad point, but we're currently looking at a situation where cautious NS is opening schools ahead of gung-ho BJ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe the gaps between each step could be shortened considerably as we'll be starting from a far lower level. Would far rather have 10% increase 4 weeks later than plateau or worse for 4 weeks.

Sadly our (my) life currently seems disproportionately impacted by the poorer quality press. I'm generally frustrated by how polarised and agenda driven much of our journalism is. Maybe it's always been that way but with 24 hour news it's possibly harder to ignore. Edited February 5, 2021 by Distant Doonhamer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I don't know much about Captain Moore but it really seems like people are projecting onto him whatever they do or don't like in the world, it's really fascinating.I think it is ultimately just funny that the UK venerating an old pensioner raising money for the creaking health system and the US being run as an even moredecrepit gerontocracy highlights that the two greatest democracies on the planet are playing the greatest hits of the Soviet Union without the full employment or a comprehensive welfare state 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
