Coronavirus (COVID-19)


Recommended Posts

Restrictions aren't going to fly again. People have got their lives back to normal. I'd expect a high level of refusal around masks and isolating. 
Is how it should be but in reality a large proportion of the country will bow down to anything the government says, especially when it comes to the Scottish government.

Probably one we don’t have vaccines and treatments for.  Think Covid 18 months ago and you’ll get the idea.

There's plenty of viruses that you should keek your breeks at, regardless of vaccines and treatments.

Hospitality has been set up as the next easy victim when the magic masks don't curtail cases and we keep finding variant cases. Everyone must wear masks when going for a piss and the vaccine passport will be introduced too, no doubt. Or maybe they'll just skip that step and shut it again with very specific furlough brought in, who knows.

In the meantime, the booster age will be lowered further, whilst they're warning people about immunity being evaded (slow clap for this messaging here, lads).

Any word on when the PCR tests will start being needed? I’m abroad at the moment, due back tomorrow night, passenger locator form already completed and day 2 lateral flow already organised.

Pretty sure you'll be OK, Johnson said the details will be announce tomorrow and they have to give notice. If your PLF has been accepted that's job done I think.

Fingers crossed! Definitely put a wave of extra stress on a quick weekend away.

I feel sorry for the travel industry tbh. How can they (or anyone) book or plan anything if, at the drop of a hat, countries can just be added to a list that didn't exist anymore?

Confidence will again be dented in the entire industry, only this time there will be no government support to support them.

I'm fairly certain that it will revert back to normal again fairly quickly (and by that I mean the LFT flavour), but the damage will already have been done.

I saw another 4 countries were redded as well at the drop of a hat. I get the countries concerned are "no-one visits them" territory, but it's a serious measure that passes without any fanfare. 

And yes, they are potentially utterly fucked here again. No furlough and if the restrictions on them increase, they will start to struggle.

John Bell (one of the creators of the Oxford vaccine who has been a great contrast with the independent sage nutters throughout ) on channel 4 there saying the early indications from South Africa are that this variant may be more transmisible but significantly less likely to cause severe illness.

He also said it was very unlikely to cause major problems.
