I guess the given answer to "who are we keeping safe?" would be those who are still going in to hospital. It would be a wasted question to ask as it would be easily swatted away.
The question is not "who are we keeping safe?" but more "to what extent is it the job of the government to keep the population safe?"
The Government have overseen a vaccination roll out which (so far) has seen 69.0% of the Scottish adult population vaccinated with at least 1 dose, and 31.9% (including practically the entirity of JCVI groups 1-9) with 2 doses.
They have done all that can reasonably be expected of them. It's time for the bedwetters and Lovejoys of the world to stop expecting the SG to wrap them in cotton wool forever, and for the SG to get on with the recovery phase, starting with letting people get on with their lives as they choose.

People will never stop going into hospital with covid. Its here to stay, so I dont think that would be an acceptable answer.

I wasn't saying it was. But it's an open goal for the "any is too many" brigade to point at and say "look! 😭😭😭"

And one which, as @Left Back said, would go completely unchallenged by the media etc.

I suppose they needed something after their Indian variant amounted to f**k all.

 

Good job we are preventing travel to keep new variants out. We can ditch that nonsense then...

However

This “Yorkshire variant” carries three mutations associated with other variants of concern: E484K, which is also found in the South African variant and can in theory lessen the effect of vaccines; N439K which is also associated with immune escape; and P681H, which is in the Kent variant and linked to greater transmissibility.

Why should we be concerned by a strain which contains mutations that the vaccines handle in their sleep? Enough of this bullshit.

Call it a log cabin.  Sounds better.

If they're desperate enough for a holiday they'll book it.

 

Hand crafted wooden cottage in idyllic Ulster countryside. Next door neighbours are wee lambs. Option to entertain sundry youngsters at no extra charge.

That’s me fully vaccinated. I’ve already had unprotected sex with several random strangers and am off to press zebra crossing buttons with my tongue.

You're a fortnight too early, son. Don't come crying to me when you're lying on your back in ICU.

I’m waiting for Devi to come out with her statement at this news. 


“Make your own sunshine troops I’m telling them to keep you all in lockdown despite all the good news



I am a smart person.”
