Ron Aldo Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Playing down the impact of the vaccines (which is what's happening here) is something right out of the anti vaxxers playbook and will only increase vaccine hesitancy, Also, anyone pointing at Chile instead of talking up the Israel stats is an absolute adult nappy.Nicola Sturgeon tweeted about Chile the other day. I haven't seen her mention Israel once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Tbf people in their early 20s should be out having fun regularly and they have pretty much been locked up for 12 months now. It's tragic for them. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola Sturgeon tweeted about Chile the other day. I haven't seen her mention Israel once. I've been harping on about this for a while. Her tweets give an interesting insight into her mindset. I remember, as an example, she didn't deem the Moderna vaccine approval worthy of a mention (unlike other senior political figures in the UK). Yet she's never slow to point out something negative e.g. Chile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to just be down to luck...I know two or three folk that had a rough 48 hours after getting it, but I just had a bit of a sore arm for a few days. Even then I only really noticed it when I made the mistake of leaning against a door frame right on the injection site... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 The only folk pissing me off more than Leitch and these other lockdown fanatics are the media, who have almost without exception been an absolute disgrace. Chasing dramatic headlines which are undoubtedly fucking with people's heads and fuelling the conspiratorial pish of anti-vax nutjobs with no recriminations is utterly unacceptable. Devi Sridhar is at this point little better than a literate Facebook Maw with a blue tick. The sooner she's punted back to whatever irrelevant shite she was doing before, the better. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are challenges ahead but the vaccine roll out and achieving grid parity on renewables shows we are not helpless in the face of it when the scientific method is applied properly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
