Coronavirus (COVID-19)


Recommended Posts

I remember in the summer of 2020 there was talk that Scotland wasn't having any Covid deaths as in 28 days post-test for a number of days but there were still deaths with Covid on the death certificate.  It used to be a bit of a talking point but you hear little of it now, presumably because deaths themselves have been greatly reduced.
I certainly can remember one of my workmates and his family weren't happy when Covid was included on their Dad's death certificate. He had terminal lung cancer and died something like 26 days after a positive test, having had no complications from Covid.

She's never going to admit she's talking shite due to the nature of it all. Even when she's right, the opposition will be telling everyone she's wrong. Much easier to say what should be done when you'll never have the power to do it.

That goes for all political leaders too.

Absolutely, there’s no use getting upset that she’s not come out admitting defeat as it’s never going to happen. 

There was enough there for me to know she realises the pandemic is going in a different direction now.

People have done nothing but give, give and give again for nearly 2 years so you can dump this sanctimonious shite in the sea where it belongs.

We've done our bit.

And don't pretend for one second that we haven't.

aye fair enough....you do realise I was only quoting UB40 lyrics

Stepson and his wife had no problems, to the best of my knowledge

Been looking around, think you can go to some hotels that let you use certain facilities in them if you pass your day one PCR. The horror stories were folk that seemed to be locked in jail style with no leaving or access to balconies.

Djokovic has been denied entry at the Australian border. 

He owned them far too much yesterday for them to let him in.  He should have waited until he was through customs. 

Australia claiming it’s a visa issue now, as he satisfied two bodies anonymously that he is indeed exempt from vaccine requirements.

Bit of a shitshow really.

Glorious stuff.

They shouldn't have told him to come then change their minds because the Oz public got upset. 

This is the Aussie equivalent of getting wound up about Barnard Castle or wine in the garden at 10 Downing St because deep down you are angry at yourself for being a compliant bitch who was too scared to break any rules

He clearly had the all clear then the Tweet yesterday riled the colonists up and Morrison shat it from 3 weeks of headlines and tears. 

It would be class if he got banned from every tournament and just said f**k it I'd rather have my body autonomy.
