"It just to stand up for the children." Whit? Q-Anon shit merging with the anti-lockdown protestors explains the last quote there (in as much as anything can explain these people). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these just really concerned people jumping round for a test? Ive learned having several members of family and friends in the NHS that we have quite a hypochondriac society but for the non test and trace folks in these figures im wondering if people are going for a test or something to get out the house? I get that people who go into hospitals are tested and track and trace, but where do the others come from? Does it include the lateral flow tests for nhs staff etc? Either way 1.3% positivity shows we are on the way. The regular testing using lateral flow tests are not included in the figures in Scotland. At least some are logged on NHS testing site, but it'd only be follow up PCR tests that are included in the figures. I'm not even sure that the regular staff testing using PCR tests (like in hospitals, care homes etc) are included in the daily figures, anyone know for definite?

I know one idiot who’s under 30 refusing it as she doesn’t know what’s in it.

Left Back Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Bill Gates now declaring that countries vaccinating under 50’s are basically c***s and should be sending all vaccines to India. He never specifically mentioned Israel though. Not the done thing to criticise Israel in the US. Maybe he could have helped the situation more by not fighting to keep IP rights for big pharma and allowing billions more doses to be produced if he’s so concerned about the pandemic. Devi also on the news implying we’re wasting loads of doses and we should be getting those to India instead. How many does she think we’re wasting? Another misleading fact trotted out that we have enough doses to vaccinate the country 4 times over. Big difference between ordered and have but don’t let that get in the way of an agenda. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been badly failed by the education system and conspiracy Facebook posts have filled the gap. This advert won’t fix that. I don’t even really know how to argue against them. Explaining the science doesn’t do it as their base knowledge is so low. Explaining statistics does nothing as they think 30 is a significant number. They completely fail to understand basic concepts that everyone should have comfortably understood before leaving high school. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s bad because big pharma then doesn’t have a new angle to make money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
