Are you actually expecting to be taken seriously with drivel like this? Quote And while we are here: New Zealand deaths from Covid 19 : 44 "bUt RaCiSm" tho. Do you think 9000 or 150,000 is a smaller number than 44? Are you trying to go over the laughable UK and New Zealand comparison again? It would have been impossible and ruinous. I am extremely relieved we didn't try it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me, on the face of it, it is all being done on trust. Nothing. It's just more pointless theatre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Such a humane policy. Nothing at all wrong or suspect with forcing Africans who have Omicron into such conditions, but not others who *checks notes* also have Omicron. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they can say in the end that they trusted folk to report them honestly and they didn’t do it, so now it has to be a paid for test to be verified. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would they ever know for definite if people reported the tests honestly? Even if there was a significant spike relating to some event, that could be caused by the fact person/s attending the event did lateral flow test/s in good faith but the tests gave a false negative. As I understand it tests are not 100% accurate (possibly because people are not willing / confident enough to stick the swab high enough up their nose etc).

Salt n Vinegar Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I'm sure that the decision to use LFT results instead of passports will work just fine, particularly because as we have seen over the months folk like the users of this site are so keen to follow the rules as thoroughly and honestly as they can. You'd never catch a P&B member faking a result just to gain entry to some venue or other. No siree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
