s_dog Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Ok fair enough, again sorry I didn't read all the posts so just thought you meant it hadn't been mentioned at all. I get what you mean about there not being explicit advice about only travelling if you had a ticket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s infuriating beyond belief that Channel 4 news in particular continue to let the likes of her and that Pagel creature have a platform. It allows their mainly left wing audience to continue to be fed the narrative of “the more you worry about the virus, the more caring a human you are” which immediately stigmatises anyone more concerned about jobs, mental health etc. Terms like “champagne socialist” and “virtue signaller” are weaponised by nutters on the right, but they absolutely apply to anyone that ignorant of the overarching impact that overplaying the current virus danger has on the working classes in particular. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, I'm aware that no vaccine is 100% effective, the point again is that current vaccines are less effective at reducing transmission of the Delta variant versus the Alpha variant (and the even more so versus the original strain). Those figures are pre-print and out of date (see here for the latest data ) they’re also discussing effectiveness against symptomatic disease, not effectiveness against transmission. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 School-specific, but nonetheless it's good to finally see rumblings that daily testing nonsense will eventually be in the bin: Quote Posted at 13:44 Williamson wants to move away from school testing 'at the earliest opportunity' Copyright: BBC Conservative MP Mark Harper asks why bubbles for pupils are not being scrapped now, arguing that they will be a "huge problem" for the rest of term. And given that all vulnerable adults have now been offered a vaccine, he asks when pupils will be able to get back to normal, without being "continuously tested" for Covid. In response, Williamson says he wants to see schools "return to normality" and testing has been "incredibly important" in helping get children back in the classroom. However, the education secretary says the policy is kept under review and in the much longer term, he doesn't expect children to be continuously tested. "Ideally I want to move away from that at the earliest and most realistic possible stage," he adds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time Kingsford was in the news, I stupidly got into it with someone who seemed to want the Dons to be banished from the city because parking can be a bit of a pain in the streets around Pittodrie for four or five hours, 20 days a year. They seem to have moved into the area without noticing the big f**k off fitba ground that has been there for well over 100 years, and making consideration of the possibility that it might involve some people coming to the area every now and again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdcal Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I noted the previous interest towards irelands plan.As someone who lives here I think I need to expand.Moving the goalposts from 5th for indoor pints and dinner to 19th and only if fully vaccined.At this moment the over 50s got mainly the moderna. So a good chunk of them need the second vax.Also, only in the last week 35-39 were invited for first pfizer.That means, under the new rules, half the buggers over 50 are waiting the second vax and those under 40 are at least waiting first. If not second.Yet the staff to serve you will be nowhere near the age group for the first.The Irish version of first minister is known as mehole...And his opposition is leo the leak.To be brutally honest, they have put too much trust in NPHET whose previous predictons are similar to trusting van vossen on a one on oneIn positive news, second pfizer dated 7th. Work Mon to Fri so I will be back at pub on first weekend I'm allowed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
