Honest_Man#1 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 2 hours ago, D.A.F.C said: They promised all this but did nothing to actually achieve it. To do so they would need to have an actual lockdown with closed borders and aggressive track and trace followed by mass testing. After that pretty much live this way until nearly everyone was vaccinated and release slowly while maintaining testing at the borders. What they actually did was pretty much nothing despite being locked down for months making the lockdown pretty much ineffective and a blunt tool that scunnered everyone into not obeying future rules. No effective opposition and poor journalism meant that they weren’t even questioned really even the health minister is still in a job despite the chaos in care homes. They should have went hard at the start and instead just blamed Westminster for all their failings. I’m not sure how we would have got on without the furlough scheme or access to the vaccine so quickly but let’s not throw stones at that. Entire response is a joke but somehow most think that sturgeon has done a great job. Compared to someone who shook hands with covid patients, well I suppose so. In terms of a global comparison, nope. Total failure. I can’t believe that anyone is still trying to engage with you considering your petulant sarcastic responses to legitimate questions that you can’t answer. The above, and subsequent comments when questioned on it, shows you as either a dribbling simpleton or a troll. I’m going with the former. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article says that Deeks identified significant issues with the accuracy of the tests with the 60% figure coming from a study in Liverpool. Im quite happy with my skepticism of the reliability of LF testing. Even if you take the Schools Minister saying 1/3 of tests have false negative results https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-how-reliable-are-the-uks-coronavirus-lateral-flow-tests then its quite a significant issue. The sage report from late 2020 also puts the 48% accuracy into play. The highest successful accurate test ratings of 70% occurred in testing at Porton Down, essentially conducted by expert lab technicians and scientists, real world tests conducted and handled by trained members of the public appear to have an accuracy of 58% according to another study. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
