Someone should tell them that the SG cares more though, which has to be worth lopping at least a hundred off those per 100k figures. If only there was something that finished in Scotland before England (hence lower figures in early July) but has returned since, that could explain the disparity in the countries' trends. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Whoopsi. Between 19 August 2021 and 25 August 2021, there have been 743 deaths within 28 days of a positive coronavirus test. This shows an increase of 13.4% compared to the previous 7 days. Produced by Public Health England — Last updated on Wednesday 25 August 2021 at 4:00pmWhoopsi ? Not sure what point your trying to make given your quote of a totally different set of stats to those being discussed. I suspect we have a new alias in town ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Again, its the business that get wrecked I feel for, because if Scotgov thinks theres any way I will be obeying rules on who can come into my home again over a few cases, they can smoke my wang 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddfg Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Woman at work today relayed the following. She has two girls, one in each of P1 and P2, they live together, go to breakfast club together and stay onsite together for after school club which is attended by pupils from 4 schools but they can't get their school picture together as it would mean breaking class bubbles. Of the many nonsense rules this is right up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I said when the roadmap was announced that it was crazy having ‘freedom day’ a week before schools went back. Cases were bound to rise giving the knicker wetters an opportunity to demand restrictions. We should’ve used the 7 week school holidays as a breathing space to get everything open instead of sticking rigidly to the England +3 weeks strategy. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no evidence to back that up. A few folk pishing their pants on here fuelled by a media who for whatever perverse reason seem hell bent on cranking this up to the max, they are quite literally gagging for a return of restrictions presumably as it's piss easy column filler. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So one rumour = two stories. I'm down south at the moment and things are 99 percent normal. I wore my mask in the hotel because the staff were, but that aside it's not been on at all. Shops, restaurants, museums. All mask free. Another 'circuit breaker' would represent an embarrassing and catastrophic failure from the Scottish Government. Almost as if delaying the loosening of restrictions to just before the schools returned was a dreadful idea... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, il make no apology for being filled with the fear over this. I dont for a second think I am the worst affected by any stretch, but I will be fucking seething.I cant quite belive your first sentence there tbh mate. I honestly dont know what to say to that, that wont come across as a dig or insulting.... Thats not my intention, I just think you must be absolutely at it there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PedroMoutinho Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I’m also not sure that floating the idea of restrictions is a great way of encouraging young people to go and get their vaccines tbh. A fair number who’ll be due their second round about now may well wonder what the point is. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
