I hadn't considered this but surely they wouldn't have the gall to use the very same play on words they eviscerated the Tories for last January?

Have they not changed their tune?  I thought SG's target was delivered boosters to 80% of eligible people by New Year?  (or something like that).  I think they recognised fairly early that 100% would be impossible.

Your last sentence, yep can't disagree with that. He sounded clueless and that was a bit of a disaster of an interview for him and the Scottish Government.

Anytime I've heard him speak he sounds pretty clueless.

This surely puts them in a position, though.

Given much of the reasoning for restrictions was to slow the spread as they rolled vaccines out, they surely have to now lift them on the 17th. Anything else and they are essentially saying they don't work.

A point I made to my MSP. My wife and have had our two jabs plus the booster as well as a flu jab as dictated by the SG and perhaps SAGE. Thank you very much, Fife NHS and my surgery. We do appreciate that there is still much diminished chance of positive  exposure - we are both in our mid eighties with underlying health problems. For us however, life is now too short to put up with the  heavy handed panicked response. Both the politicians making the decisions and the "science" are now close to completely losing all credibilty and  trust.

'4.5 billion dead by this time next week' means you will never be in any position to insult anyone's intelligence.
Unlucks!
That, and the other thing......

Still, I suppose someone, somewhere must be grateful for his ongoing commitment to spamming any thread where the SNP are criticised with the same boring, vacuous shite.

Omicron is making it worse in terms of people getting it after being admitted, which makes sense considering how transmissible it is. So data just released today is making it more like 60%.

 

Ah right, you meant 70% of Covid hospital admissions. Your initial post said “70% of hospital admissions are in for Covid” which was what I thought was impossible, so you’d just missed a word out of your post. Thanks for clarifying.
