Sore arm and sore head have subsided but that's a new presumed symptom for me. My arm was fucking killing me day after booster and then next day the pain seemed to move towards the inside of my upper arm below my armpit. Can't say I have ever had that after any vaccine before. I'm the same, the first 2 doses and my flu jags i haven't experienced this, well we can ride or die together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btb Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) My feeling throughout most of the pandemic is that it is correct to err on the side of caution and for most of it I've preferred Sturgeon's POV to Johnson's but I feel she's over the edge of the cliff now and that if she looks down she'll find like Wile E. Coyote there's no science there to hold her up. Edited December 23, 2021 by btb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Quite clear there is no appetite for restrictions seeing as Leeds fans sang "Boris Johnson is a c**t" during the game against Arsenal. The public are wise and well ahead of the government. I can science like Deepti, pay me for interviews. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiming that folk choosing not to go to restaurants means folk want restaurants to be forcibly closed does nothing to make me feel any different. If she has people, they are letting her down by not smashing her phone into pieces. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still looks massively out of place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sore arm and sore head have subsided but that's a new presumed symptom for me. Yip. I got mine about 3weeks ago. I was basically fine, but my arm hurt a bit more than for the previous two. After a couple of days, any pain was mostly under my arm. It was never severe or a anything, but it was definitely a feature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Just now, Todd_is_God said: I commented on this earlier. The figures look weird Do they, though? The jump is fairly consistent with the few weeks before. Monday 29th was up 48.2% on Sun 28th, 6th up 51.7%, 13th 68.3%. 20th currently sits at 38.5% above the 19th. The previous 3 weeks suggests it has a bit to climb yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unfortunate that tomorrow will be the last update of this kind until the 29th, however it should give a better view of the data from the 21st. If it is anything other than a slight increase or decrease on the 20th then it's a definite anomaly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiming that folk choosing not to go to restaurants means folk want restaurants to be forcibly closed does nothing to make me feel any different. If she has people, they are letting her down by not smashing her phone into pieces. I am torn between two thoughts on her: one is that she is a genuinely terrible person and the second that she is somewhat a product of citcumstance. She's said before that she's clinically vulnerable and maybe her viewpoint comes from that place. Dismal way to present yourself as a scientist if so, but she has a right bee in her bonnet about long covid (especially in kids). Any studies that contradict her view are met with a barrage of angry, accusatory tweets, the recent trend being that people disagreeing with her are 'covid minimalists'. The personality side, I think I'm in agreement that she needs to step away from twitter. Can't take criticism at all but is more than happy to lash out, in many cases quite vociferously. Seems to have regular foot stamping sessions about not being taken seriously, meanwhile is arrogant enough to think she can dictate the terms she's interviewed on. Maybe she's unwell, maybe she is a horrible person, I don't know. Not doing herself any favours at any rate. I'd agree someone should tell her to step back, but she fulfills Cadwalladr's missions statement of 'hijacking and disrupting the news cycle' or whatever it was before they amended it.

Nanny state and this cancel culture seem to go hand in hand in creating a dystopian 1984 like society which sadly we DO seem to be heading towards pretty rapidly. Exactly correct and who are at the forefront of of the nanny state and cancel culture? Why, the left of course and in Scotland, you’re talking SNP. Its only the Brexiteer types from the right that are pushing back against it. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work colleague had this for a few days and asked her GP about it. In her case it was swollen lymph nodes and was told that it was a recognised but uncommon side effect but that it should be seen as a positive as it was indicative of the vaccine doing its job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treating a political party like your football team, but when you were 14, has some fairly odd consequences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By my reckoning that means we will definatley have booster 4 & 5, possibly 6 to come then whatever new deals or how long til these all get used up. With the prospect of diminishing uptake, its likely that could drag on towards double digits!!! maybe not fully pertinent to all the current points, but does perhaps highlight how long we (the public) may have to deal with this shit show https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-agrees-new-deals-to-future-proof-vaccine-rollout-in-light-of-new-variant The top man at Pfizer said they'd be required for another 3 years a couple of weeks ago. Although he just might have his own, non medical, reasons for wanting that to be the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right but this is where pigeon holing people or whole ideologies never really works. What I mean by that is that some of my views would be perceived as socialist, some may be perceived as conservative and others quite liberal. I even have some views which our youth of today sees as extreme / old school/ yer da. I'm pretty sure most of us are the same if we're honest as surely the majority don't fit nicely into a mainstream perception of what a "Tory" looks like or what a "Nat" looks like or what a good socialist / communist looks like ???? Ultimately it's better to just think for yourself rather than trying to please anyone else with what they think you should be thinking, they may not like it (as is seen on this forum regularly), however I'm afraid they're up a gum tree if they think people like me are ever going to conform to their warped idea of what is "right"........... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
