Why the f**k would you spend hundreds of pounds and annual leave to go to a city where a game is on where you don't have tickets, there is no fan zone and you all have to disperse hours before the game to go to 1000 different pubs across London for 2 hours? Because it will be fun and a lot of people are desperate for trips/holidays after staying at home for over a year. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Probably in for another ailment and have tested positive. Everyone knows this disease doesn't affect the young. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't possibly become the voice of the Scottish government on a daily basis. I'd rather listen to and watch Jackie Baillie eat crisps.

Bairnardo Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Why the f**k would kids mixing in a soft play be any different to kids mixing at school? Jesus Christ man.... The competition to care harder!!! is getting tough now. Having to come out with ever more outlandish shit to get how hard you care noticed.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 If we're genuinely worried about the rate at which children are catching the virus and being ill enough to require hospitalisation, then schools need to be moved back onto MS Teams. Birthday caird pish from Yousaf about soft plays that have been shut for months. Fucking hell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hospitalisations are my concern here - how low did we get these? 60ish? 58 on 7 May (47 in hospital and 11 in ICU). Pretty much doubled in 3 weeks. You can argue it is from a low base, but it is certainly going up significantly. If it is going to have an impact on deaths remains to be seen, but if so, there is a lag. The good thing is that it is generally among the unvaccinated / single dosed, so it has a clear end-point for me. It’s jus getting to that end point, which may only be a few weeks / month or so away -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallo_Madrid Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 The minute the UK recorded no deaths in a 24 hour period they should have scrapped every ounce of restrictions. 66 million people on this Island and there's a handful of people getting seriously ill. Its mind blowing. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuance like: why cases are more likely to rise when we're pissing about with vaccines in storage and pretty blue envelopes for a generation of smartphone users? We know this ends once the vaccines are administered up to a certain threshold. So just fucking get on with it, all while everything else is clearly well within hospital capacity. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A large part can likely be put down to less immunity from natural infection than England and less immunity from vaccination than Wales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard this about blue envelopes and a generation of smartphone users quite a lot and I can't quite follow that reasoning. Why would getting a letter be a problem? Unless there's a huge percentage of us trying to open them with both thumbs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Younger people typically change address more regularly without updating their relevant details, hence letters ending up at any c**ts gaff. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
