And the Indian produced AZ vaccine is recorded the same as any other source in the UK, so they won't be able to distinguish them. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/explainers-57665765 Cue the EU kicking up a fuss because we can't distinguish between approved and non-approved vaccines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cry me a fucking river If I was putting together a caricature of the biggest w****r in Britain, it probably would be an estate agent from Essex. Blue suit, red tie, shit haircut and that fucking accent. "I fink this house has well good potential innit." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through track and trace they could quite easily build a narrative around any other activity. Looks to me like they are trying to provide cover for restrictions on football games that weren't in place for the Euros. 1 hour ago, 101 said: The media have been begging for the stats in a way they never would about "essential" places like schools and hospitals. Having fun will continue to be under intense scrutiny for as long as newspaper websites have Facebook pages that drive revenue by Facebook Maws screaming about how terrible it all is. Aye, I'd say it's more of the latter than the former. Nobody associated with the Scottish government, including Sturgeon, Leitch and Bauld, have made any sort of big deal out of the issue, it's all been stirred up by the media for the sake of a story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr "UEFA will be watching" can piss off. Absolutely shameless if he can't see it's the likes of him that have caused this obsession. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Couple of days down in Blackpool and definitely felt more “normal” than anywhere I’ve been in Scotland ( as normal as Blackpool can be) Water park rammed and no one giving a toss about masks in most places, great to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in Largs every day and it's been pretty normal / laid back throughout. A few places will ask you to scan a QR code but that's about the height of any "hassle" that I've come across. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only place we had any sort of hassle was Gretna on the way down when I was the only customer in a shop with the Bairn and 5/6 members of staff were stood together chatting yet one ran over to me telling me I didn’t have a mask on when there was no one within 20 feet. It’s over and cannot wait until “covid Marshals” and the such are a thing of the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's just a bloody nonsense where these jumped up Hitler types get their 5 mins of feeling important, no need for it at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Quote Professor Calum Semple who is a member of the Government scientific advisory group SAGE, is one of a number of experts calling for the official list of symptoms to be expanded. Talking on BBC Breakfast today he said: "Adding in fatigue, headache and sore throat, and diarrhea actually as well, would increase the catch." He added: "The bottom line is, if you're not feeling quite right - you've got a bit of a headache, perhaps an upset tummy - feeling really tired and washed out, that could be Covid, particularly if you're 20 or 30 years old, so get a test." Literally any symptom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
