Elixir Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 3 minutes ago, Snafu said: Yet, we've been very very lucky so far but the COVID-19 pandemic has shown how very vulnerable we really are. Measures at the borders just like any other restriction at the time were to stall the spread of the virus and give enough time for the vaccination program to get enough traction and vaccinate as many people as possible before the 'dam' breaks. This has so far in the UK it has been successful and looks like it will be unless England itself takes a turn for the worse after the 19th. Probably the last obstacle in finally beating this Delta variant. No signs of any other variant to take over from it which is good news but there is a nasty black fungus in India which we definitely don't want. Please don't say that will get in regardless anyway and we have to live with it, shudder!! Oh and no one was referring to or hinting at a zero covid strategy here, this was about competence in the ability to prevent viruses and diseases entering this country which was defended by Shapp, which is laughable if it wasn't so serious. I'm fairly sure this is a reaction to them pumping too many steroids into patients and not some plague spin-off. This pandemic is a once in a century level event. 'Living' life because this has happened and it 'might' again happen decades from now, or tomorrow, is not something we have ever done before. We shouldn't start either. We will already be far better prepared for something like this happening again, but it would help by getting places like China to clean up their disgusting wet markets and actually be more open with health matters of potentially global significance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thereisalight.. Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 7 hours ago, welshbairn said: Just curious. You keep complaining about any suggestion of advantages given to people who are vaccinated, thought that might be why. no its nothing to do with that. I just think its utterly ridiculous having to show Vaccine status or LFT results to get into events. Having the vaccine does not 100%guarantee you wont catch it or transmit it so what's the point of needing to show your status? Also LFT are highly inaccurate so again its pointless. I've said from the start that I've no qualms in them for international travel. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that isolation only changed for close contacts that then tested positive and not for people that were already isolating after testing positive. Certainly not how I was treated in December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Mrs and son got tested . Results came back positive and dates of isolation changed from the 10th to the 15th for me. I presume if his Mrs tells track n trace she has tested positive he would get the text to be told to self isolate furthermore.

Seems strange that your isolation period would increase. It's lunacy. Edited July 8, 2021 by strichener 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strichener Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 4 minutes ago, Robin.Hood said: Yes. I am not sure how this happens tbh. When someone tests positive then close contacts have to isolate at the point based on the earliest interaction with the positive person. If this were two work mates and the positive person was isolating and the work mate tested positive 10 days later, the original positive wouldn't have to extend their isolation. If it's two people in the same household then this should also be the case unless they weren't properly self-isolating in the first place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm telling how I received my texts both before and after the calls with the guy from track and trace. First one saying I tested positive, 3 days later 2 people in the house show symptoms and go for a test. They then test both test positive . After this a phonecall has been had and then straight after this ( more details were given ) and then a text was sent. So the last date I have been sent is what I will stick with ( also have to send it all to my work to make sure I get paid fine ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather the process that has let to it. As I said it was not the case with myself last year. ETA if anyone tried to get hold of T&P on Christmas Eve then let me know as I certainly couldn't!

Or learn French and then go to Montreal zoo and club a seal to death, swearing at it in the local tongue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
