Seen a fair amount of weapons on Twitter this afternoon claiming we’re due to follow India after letting a crowd in at the League Cup final today. These morons seem completely oblivious to the fact we have vaccines that WORK and more than half of our country - and the majority of the vulnerable - are vaccinated. 

It is true that part of the reason India is in the hole that it is with Covid is the mass mixing of people at religious events. However this involved millions of people (literally), the vast majority of whom are unvaccinated. Nothing like false equivalence.

It's becoming increasingly clear that the vArIaNtZ are an utter irrelevance to the vacc#scenes as well.

There was a freedom march in London earlier, opposing lockdown and vaccine passports. Thousand of people there yet there was no mention of it on the BBC news website. They were quick enough to have reports on those protesting the ESL, quick enough to show "covidiots" on beaches. Why not show people protesting these draconian measures? Oh that's right it doesnt fit the narrative 

Also anti vaccine. Deserve f**k all attention

Saw a clip of some women who'd travelled from somewhere like Devon and were asked why they wanted to take part in it.

"To be around other sane people that know mask are just bollocks, and this is genocide and you can't stay quiet about that so you have to join with other people that know what the hell's going on." 

"It just to stand up for the children." 

Whit?

Edit: That's the video I was meaning, thanks to Theroadlesstravelled's post.

Q-Anon shit merging with the anti-lockdown protestors explains the last quote there (in as much as anything can explain these people).

Given maybe a decent chunk of folks in the test figures are from track and trace fair enough, but 1.3% of people testing positive? Are these just really concerned people jumping round for a test? Ive learned having several members of family and friends in the NHS that we have quite a hypochondriac society but for the non test and trace folks in these figures im wondering if people are going for a test or something to get out the house? I get that people who go into hospitals are tested and track and trace, but where do the others come from? Does it include the lateral flow tests for nhs staff etc? 
Either way 1.3% positivity shows we are on the way. 

The regular testing using lateral flow tests are not included in the figures in Scotland. At least some are logged on NHS testing site, but it'd only be follow up PCR tests that are included in the figures. I'm not even sure that the regular staff testing using PCR tests (like in hospitals, care homes etc) are included in the daily figures, anyone know for definite?

Does that mean you're not really JacksGranda or am I missing something?

Not only am I Jack's granda, but I'm also granda to his 4 sisters and 11 cousins. And great granda to his cousin's wee boy.

Ah.  So Jacksgranda is just an abbreviation to your real official title.  Fair enough.

Aye, well offer it to me, then, and I'll get it! 

Not sure if maybe I'm delusional or sheltered, but I don't know anyone in my age group vehemently opposed to vaccination or that has indicated they won't be getting vaccinated.

I came back to the house today to see one of the neighbours on our street having a 21st birthday party which involved dozens of folk, a DJ and fireworks. And fair play to them.

In Glasgow do you not get a telegram from the Queen on your 21st birthday?

I know one idiot who’s under 30 refusing it as she doesn’t know what’s in it.

She’s no problem selling juice plus though to everyone who she can have a conversation with.
