Is it because there actually isn't a legal basis for such a case? Im pretty sure you can essentially petition that the measures arent appropriate/proportionate or necessary. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually embarassing that they still refuse to conceed their projection of a mid-late Jan, maybe even early Feb, peak might have been slightly wrong. They were presented with the easiest get out ever ("thankfully our models were overly pessimistic, the data allows us to lift all additional restrictions on the 17th"), yet they still down the "never be wrong so double down" route. Incredible. Edited January 12, 2022 by Todd_is_God 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Malkmus Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Not sure what you lot are on about re: the "tsunami" quote. Looks clear that we did get the predicted tsunami of cases after that statement was made, and the case numbers almost touched the worst case scenario of Scot Gov's modelling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

December 20th was 6,734 cases. Nowhere near the Tsunami from ScotGov's own evidence paper. In the "central" band. All their doomsday predictions were based on a doubling of cases every 2 days. Never happened. Never came close to happening. Conclusion. They shat the bed and fired in additional restrictions for no justifiable reason. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddfg Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 To me a Tsunami of cases would have led to significant structural damage to the health and economy of the country in an equivalent manner to the 2004 Indonesian disaster. What we have seen over the past month has been a big wave landing on Ayr beach and nothing worthy of the drama and scare mongering from people who really should know better than to be constantly pedalling fear and alarm. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they'd said a tsunami of serious infections, hospitalisations or deaths I'd agree with you. Very rarely does a tsunami cause thousands of deaths. If we refer to other case peaks as "waves", given that this one involved a peak several times higher than previous waves, a "tsunami of cases" seems like an accurate way of describing it. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tsunami, for almost all generations alive atm evokes one thing only. Death and destruction on a horrific scale. What we got was a few more cases driven by the increased transmissibility of a variant that South Africa were telling everyone who would listen (we wouldn't) was significantly less dangerous and unlikely to cause any problems whatsoever. It was horrendous use of language, and was used in the context of having one eye on Johnson not funding further restrictions, hoping that it would all come back to bite him and she would score some points. The opposite has happened of course. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
