Don't do something you're allowed to do parents or you'll hospitalise children.

There will be more children admitted to hospital taking an allergic reaction to eating something, licking something or tripping over on the way into, the building that has the soft play area than would be by catching covid. 

 

NB:

not a doctor, this is not medical advice but I am pretty confident it is accurate.

I’d be challenging that one.

 

The rule has always been that direct contacts of positive cases should self-isolate. Households of contacts do not need to isolate. 

i'm sure if someone needs to self isolate, then the entire household does, whats the point in someone staying at home incase their unknowingly spreading covid, only for the rest of their family to go out and about unknowingly spreading it whilst they're in the hoose?

Covid-19: UK's data encouraging, says government adviser

The UK's latest coronavirus data looks encouraging, a government adviser has said, amid a debate over whether to end restrictions in England on 21 June.

Sir John Bell, part of the government's vaccine taskforce, said there needed to be "balance" to the discussion.

"If we scamper down a rabbit hole every time we see a new variant we are going to spend a long time huddled away."

Good old Sir John, handing out the telts to the vArIaNtS brigade.

This is incorrect.

 

Epidemiologically speaking you are correct. However I’m just telling you what the rules state:

 

- If someone tests positive, all direct close contacts must isolate, but contacts of contacts/households of contacts do not need to.

- If someone you live with develops symptoms or tests positive then the entire household/support bubble isolates for 10 days.

f**k me, fwiw i think it's silly all those folk needing to isolate becuase someone coughed once in a room but if people actually living in a house with someone who has been deemed enough of a risk via contact that they must self isolate, don't themselves have to isolate then no wonder the entire system leaks like a sieve . might aswell not bother with the hassle of it now

I’ve long suspected that if the election hadn’t happened this year she’d have resigned as FM and stepped back when this is over.

There’s a reason they were so desperate for Angus Robertson to get into Holyrood.

 

Yep, get a bit of time off and prepare to lead the yes campaign in indyref2.

She really has made a rod for her own back by appointing an utter fucking moron as a depute. 

Haha Im sure he can handle stuff with support for a bit afterwards.

Some sense from someone on the vaccine task force:-.

Heard a snippet of that interview earlier and was relieved that at least someone is talking sense.

The fanzones are happening Jason.
So deal with it you fucking clown. 


It won’t surprise me if he’s slowly being faded away for economists and other experts to give advice.

We don’t need to know of every variant unless hospitalisation increase and it’s a common link. Hopefully his time in the sun is done.

If It involves paying more people to self islate, the government isn't interested.

Good luck trying to stop fans going down :lol: 

Forget COVID.

Why the f**k would you spend hundreds of pounds and annual leave to go to a city where a game is on where you don't have tickets, there is no fan zone and you all have to disperse hours before the game to go to 1000 different pubs across London for 2 hours?
