Detournement Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 If less people are getting seriously ill from Covid then a higher proportion of the hospital cases will be people who have tested positive but remain in hospital for other reasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This shit rocks. One of the chief architects of Moderna's vaccine being a furry who spends most of his day on Twitter is one of the weirdest things about this pandemic.

Literally looking for the worst take you can get on a very positive twitter post. Someone was commenting on the “nats” automatically jumping on anyone saying anything negative. This is exactly the same from the man who is voting Tory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are none so blind as those who will not see. Worst take? NS has just, quite literally, said that the vaccines are "putting us on a path back to a way of living that will feel so much more normal" Tell me what other, better, takes there are from that sentence. It's absolutely justified to question why she didn't say that the vaccines are "putting us on a path back to a way of living that will feel normal" and be concerned about it. Ask yourself this. If the vaccines aren't putting us on the path back to normal life, what will? Edited April 21, 2021 by Todd_is_God 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 So the ECDC join the CDC in saying fully vaccinated people can fire their masks in the bin, and don't need to social distance from other fully vaccinated people... which will be 90%+ of the UK population. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting that they should a. Be banned from entering "101 things to cover with black gloss" stadium, or b. Be allowed entry into a segregated wee ghetto, or c. Be allowed to mix in gen pop, but carry a bell to ring in warning of their status, or d. Have some other, blatantly discriminatory, sanction placed upon them? p.s. The remark on phones was supposed to be light-hearted - it was always going to be about that level. I think the point is that most of these people would be exempt from the passport, and herd immunity would do its thing. I don't agree at all with vaccine passports btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwullie Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Just now, Snafu said: There would be an acceptable herd immunity percentage in this country one would presume? Maybe herd immunity was the wrong term. I meant extremely localised immunity within the football ground due to everyone but these exempt people being vaccinated 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 No one off thank you bonus for nurses working in England. https://www.nursingtimes.net/news/coronavirus/government-confirms-nurses-in-england-will-not-receive-covid-19-bonus-21-04-2021/I was at a meeting last week where I was genuinely gobsmacked to here that the £500 NHS and Social Care payments extend to "support staff" which COSLA in this case had deemed available to such folk as the HR and Payroll staff. It means in Councils the staff that work in the HR and Payroll sections that deal with Social Care staff would be eligible for the bonus which seems a massive stretch to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
