Elixir Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I just think the reality is that surely as this goes on past a full calendar year, in tandem with the vaccine rollout, it just won't be a tenable position not to progressively lift all restrictions by the end of summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There won't be a revolt or anything like it if we can't have crowds at football or have a glass of wine with a steak dinner this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I wonder if it will ever be acknowledged how much little odd balls like John Edmunds shat their pants and completely pivoted their position while thinking nobody would notice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but that is also the current state of play at the height of the worst point of the pandemic, when fear is at its zenith, and as the vaccine continues to roll out. If that isn't a minority view in six months time then it truly will be worrying. Still, surely Government, particularly the Tory party in London, will need to get the shiftless deadbeats moving again and off state life support as soon as possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland's prioritised the care homes - where about 90% have been vaccinated. The English figure is less than 40%. Boris Johnston has gone for the Daily Express/ thicko headline tactic. Little surprise you've swallowed it hook line and sinker. And Nicola has gone for the National/Weegie thicko headline tactic. Little surprise that you’ve swallowed it hook, line and sinker. Anyway, at least you’ve got another Independence think tank. That’ll be really handy in the middle of a crisis. The Nats are just like Old Firm fans....it’s always someone else’s fault. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 How was she? Taking my mum on Tuesday, she's never had a bad reaction to the flu jag. Was it an instant thing or did she get home before it hit?Sore arm on Friday and felt pretty shitty yesterday. List of effects include..Soreness around the jag site Tiredness ChillsFeverAches and painsSwollen glandsNothing that paracetamol and ibuprofen couldn't handle, she's fine today apart from the sore arm and swollen glands, but she has almost always had swollen glands from the flu jab too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 1 hour ago, Elixir said: Once immunity continues to build in the population and the vaccination program is completed, deaths will return to normal levels and the healthcare system will no longer be in danger of being swamped. That means every single one of the civil liberties taken from us should then be returned. No tiers or 'precautionary principle' for something that won't actually exist, but full normality. Anything else would be overreach and mission creep. Nicola Sturgeon is an inherently conservative politician, unlike Johnson who is a raging populist. I suspect that she'll be utterly terrified to lift severe restrictions too soon, but will be forced into a corner because Johnson will start easing lockdown as soon as possible. On top of that, the May elections will soon be at the front of her mind. I have no facts to back it up, but I still believe that we'll be in tier systems for a long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do need context but a near 30% readmission rate is horrific. Many of the old relics 'at deaths door' would presumably have succumbed on first admission and won't be part of a group discharged from hospital?? Hospital readmission rates in England following pneumonia according to this paper are 16%. Readmission.

If they’re all over 70 then those statistics will likely plummet shortly after that group have been vaccinated. If it’s across all age groups with large numbers under 50 then it’s more worrying longer term. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
