Steven W Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Sturgeon said her review "would be broadly similar", but I just can't see it. Johnson's is pretty wide ranging 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scosha Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Restrictions on social contact potentially dropped in June. Daft question but does that mean a potential end to social distancing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I wouldn't be too disappointed if we followed a route map (or road map, whatever its being called) similar to England. Unfortunately I think we'll be at least a couple of weeks behind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm pretty sunsure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's then ruined it by saying the 21st of June is the date the government hopes to remove all restrictions, which we all know won't happen. But data, not dates? He even said that, then just started mentioning dates, and 5 weeks between phases. Jeez. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) BoZo setting up the binning of social distancing, and the associated sociopaths loving the spotlight. A nice wee two fingers up to the #ZeroCovid nutters at the start of his speech as well. Over to you, Nicola.

All the vibes are it will be blanket extended for 6 months in next week's budget In 6 months time there wont be any restrictions at all if you believe Boris. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Social distancing isn't in the law anyway (except that businesses have to ensure their premises are COVID secure compliant). The 2 metre rule etc is guidance for individuals.

I suppose that is pretty dramatic effect on new admissions. Also highlights just how long people must be kept in OUTWITH ICU given the overall number in hospital are as high. Some I know of mum went in just before Christmas, she was in icu until last week, week in hdu and now on ward. Rehab from that length time on ventilator will be slow I assume. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember this is Boris "data not dates" Johnston he is just having one last U turn for fun. Tbh I was expecting some restrictions to last into August (3 weeks after all adults have been offered) but of they can pull this off, I say "bravo" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest_Fifer Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 FFS Boris even managed to get in a mention of variants that evade the vaccines. You know, the ones that we don't know about yet. As for 5 weeks between phases...get that shite in the sea. I refuse to believe that we will need that long to see the benefits of the vaccine rollout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd_is_God Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) The indicative dates are not the main headline here. It's the stated desire to get to the situations described, along with firing the idea of #ZeroCovid into the sun, that matters.
