Coronavirus (COVID-19)


Recommended Posts

Rather have covid. Quite depressing because Blackpool was a cracking wee place to visit, absolutely horrible now. 


Last there 2005. Never been before and it was horrendous. Worst part was you could see it had just been left to die.

Roughly 50% of folk not turning up at the mass vaccination centre in Dundee today. I know some of these will be folk that have genuine reasons for not making it and I also know that the helpline number can be a pain in the arse to get through to but it's quite frustrating to see the amount of resources wasted for a reasonable amount of folk to just not be arsed turning up.

As if you needed additional reasons to go nowhere near fucking Blackpool. jose.png&key=36a9cf2880030028fa3707f8ec7045350392a53b9d866f3f23b238b220c17437

Blackpool plans testing scheme for hotel guests

Visitors to Blackpool could be asked to take Covid tests at their hotels in a bid to keep outbreaks at bay once the seaside town fully reopens.

The town's council is in talks with local hospitality businesses about rolling out the voluntary tests.

Concerns about the impact of an influx of tourists on case numbers were raised at the authority's audit committee.

The town has often suffered high infection rates throughout the pandemic.

Why would you take a voluntary test when you are on holiday and run the risk of having to self isolate? Seems like another ridiculous plan.

What genuine reason could you have for not making it

Perhaps not many people in Dundee can read?

Illness, work, drop off/pick up from school, other appointments. There's plenty of genuine reasons that someone couldn't make it in. When I said the helpline number they give you is a nightmare I mean it is at times impossible to get through to and it appears that the advice they are giving out isn't exactly helpful.

That being said I would say that a vast majority of the people not turning up are either people who don't want the AstraZeneca which they've changed over to in Dundee today, or folk that just can't be arsed turning up.
