Its not about deaths which are at this moment in time, by any sensible measure, within an acceptable range (no, that doesnt mean I am somehow dismissive of the loss suffered) Its about the obsession with protection. As you say, the inability of these people to distinguish the difference between their own right to assess and mitigate risk, and the government passing laws to force everyone to do it show up a lack of intelligence or a lack of honesty. Im not sure which. Quite cynical about some of them whilst aslo being quite sympathetic to what some of them have been turned into. Post "freedom day" a lot of these folk will take some amount of scud when they try to lecture others about masks or grill them about their medical status etc. The medical staus one really grinds my gears. Seems there is always someone at work who wants to know who's been vaccinated and when. Feel like asking them when they last had a shit or a shag seeing as it seems ok to ask personal questions now. I'll be glad when covid isnt the main topic of conversation amongst people 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 ToryCovidCatastrophe trending on twitter. Surprisingly it's about the potential lifting of restrictions on the 19th rather than pretty much everything up to this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was being ignored at Hampden and Murrayfield recently. Good luck to stewards trying to enforce it when crowds are back. Feel kind of sorry for them as they have to wear them whilst no other fcker is giving a shit (and rightly so as it's an outside environment) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly it's about the potential lifting of restrictions on the 19th rather than pretty much everything up to this point. Sadly it took a global pandemic to see the amount of utter creepy weirdos who live amongst us. 16 months or so of these restrictions and vaccines preventing deaths and they still want us locked up as "we just dont know!!!". Clearly they dont have jobs that have been at risk due to all this or mental health issues than have rendered these 16 months a struggle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btb Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Might just be in pox-ridden South Ayrshire but I've noticed more people going about maskless in shops during the last week, I reckon the SG will have a hard time holding the line past Aug 7th if (as expected) it becomes non-mandatory in England. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For f**k sake man. Just get the f**k out of our lives "People could be expected". So will likely just be encouraged. I can't see there being this much of a split between us and down south - not least because this will be three fucking weeks after they lift measures. Either way, I won't be wearing one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I'm going to keep wearing one for a while, just discovered how much more comfortable "duck" masks are, fucked if I'm going to waste the £7 I spent on them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Restrictions versus cases currently suggest that we have reached "what will be will be". Removing even more restrictions, which can only result in somewhere between no impact to increased transmission pushes us further down that road. Why then would you retain one in particular? Facemasks in conjunction eith the remaining restrictions are currently resulting in.....Let me see the numbers... Oh aye... The highest levels of transmission we have seen. What the f**k are they going to do on their own. Laughable, pantomime nonsense. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchan30 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I'll be very surprised if we stop wearing masks at work any time soon. Interestingly, the guidance has always been to wear FFP3 for AGPs in patients with respiratory illness, just we've generally ignored it. I'd be interested to see what are surgical wound infection rates are like now, compared to when only those who were scrubbed wore them.I am a porter and completely agree with you. I can’t see infection control rushing to stop the wearing of masks. Might happen eventually, but i imagine they will push to keep them mandatory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) Quote "We will take account of social and economic factors as well as the epidemiological impact on transmission and will keep measures under review." 1) The SG have never taken social or economic factors into account, in their litany of clowncar restrictions because public health!!!!1111!!! 2) The exact same SG spokesperson then states that face coverings will be needed on public transport and in retail settings, thereby prejudging the scrupulous review of all the factors that the SG claims it will do.

Maybe if supermarkets themselves hadnt seized the opportunity to expand their sales to cover literally everything that was closed down at the height of it, and literally try to attract folk in for a day out it wouldnt have gone that way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
