Is Joe Bloggs 'allowed' to visit family members in hospital? I've no idea what the current 'rules' are.


If it is ‘near the end’ care they can visit. My mother in law was in hospital a couple of weeks ago because her dad was just receiving end of life comfort care and they allowed a couple of visits before he passed away.

N. Ireland will be well vaccinated by then. A few tourists should make little / no difference.

We'll just put police on the border to turn back day trippers - like the republic did.

It’s allowed if it’s end of life. Maximum of two people. My gran was put in end of life care this week, who I’ve only been able to visit 3 times since March last year due to restrictions. Can’t even get in to have one last chat as my Dad and Uncle are the only 2 allowed in. Pure shite.

I don't think hospital visiting has been a thing for a long time. Possibly in an end of life situation, not sure.

So they can justify it before auld Phil makes a miraculous recovery in the next week or two...

Are the Serbians putting it in their water supply?

Not in the EU and big friends with both Moscow and Beijing

Tongue in cheek comment, and I believe their data has just been updated after a full week, but they're certainly benefitting from having fingers in many pies.

Noticed from that thread that South Africa are using the J&J vaccine which is a single shot. Are we using that one anytime soon?

I believe it's going before regulators in the US next week, so it would be surprising if we're not far behind. We should start seeing Moderna doses within the next couple of months too.

Also seems like there is a dilemma, however, because despite being a single dose vaccine, some smallscale testing suggested it is even more effective after two, like the others.

Was also asked to put a face covering on (which I did). When I said I didn't realise it was required (the station isn't indoors) the polis replied "why do you think we're wearing them?"

Was very tempted to respond with "Because your commanding officer ordered you to?" but shat it and decided I'd rather just get home without hassle.

Lassie at my work agreed to go down to a 4 day week temporarily when work dipped, now things have recently really picked up again so asked her if she can return to 5 days a week. 

Her response? no, i'm quite enjoying doing the 4 day week and i want to make the most of lockdown because my husband is on furlough. (which he has been since March 2020)

From what i know about the relationship they will be sitting watching tv laughing at each others farts.

Good for the "lassie". Better ways to spend your 90 (if you're lucky) years on a rock hurtling through space than working five days a week until you're 65/67/70/75/whatever the pension age will be in thirty years' time.
