They definitely have a really quick (too quick) peer review process - they send you articles and ask you to review them within a week, while most respected journals give you a month or six weeks. It's therefore not surprising to see utter bollocks published in their journals. Just checked my emails to see - they asked me in March to review a paper and wanted my comments within 10 days. It is quick indeed, and they have absolutely no flexibility with it. I've stopped even clicking the 'reject' link as they then ask you why you can't, and who else should they approach. I reviewed a paper for Scientific Reports in October last year, a much more reputable journal from Nature. Their email said that they wanted the comments ideally within 10 days, but I could have up to one month more than this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Is it potentially going to be a positive thing this huge increase in case numbers that don’t translate to a huge increase in hospitalisations and deaths? Essentially this is now a controlled, and less deadly, herd immunity strategy in action? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBear Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 (edited) 9 hours ago, sparky88 said: COVID is a problem, not because it kills people but because it has/ had the potential to overwhelm the NHS. It has been presented as such since the early stages of the pandemic. We now have a vaccine that actually does stop people dying from COVID, but the really important bit is that hospitalisations are rising, but certainly not exponentially and not at the same extent when we have had a similar number of cases in previous waves. If the NHS is overwhelmed then I am absolutely fine with lockdowns and further restrictions but it isn't, and people are actually bringing their children into A and E with mild COVID now, they've been so frightened by the messaging from Leith, Sturgeon, Sridhar etc. Enough now, for everyone's sake Valid points, but the fact is vaxing has the virus under control. What we see now is the great cover up, the great con, that being an NHS that isunderfunded and under resourced for over ten years now and Covid the excuse abd the great deflection from failed government policy across the UK. Also as we have seen Covid the opportunity for passing draconian legistion that affects our private and daily lives, with civil liberties eroded, all to control, sully and sikence the populous as the precursor to the hell we will experience in the great reset/4IR, that will see the populous enslaved to the "man" with hyper inflation coming to a town near you soon. The 1% have to put bread on their table after all. Edited June 25, 2021 by BlueBear -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid is pretty much not a thing amongst doubly vaccinated people and we know this because we have hospital and death figures to prove it. The answer is clear. Get more vaccines into arms. Nothing else matters. Testing won't help with any of this. It's just a needless and expensive distraction which causes endless knicker-wetting.
