Popular Post Arthur Orton Posted February 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2022 The damage done to people's mental health over the last two years should not be underestimated for all age groups. Old people terrified to go out, clubs cancelled. People of all ages isolated and not seeing anyone. Entire support networks crushed. No opportunity to mix. Leisure facilties shut, hospitality sector shut. Sports stopped. Uni students missing out on some of the best days of their young life's. Schoolkids missing trips, memories, developing social norms. The effect has been massive and made much worse by the b*****ds in the media who perpetuated fear, a government who when it suited ignored the science to the detriment of their population and of course the fact that mental health provisions in this country are not fit for purpose. Not surprising the lack of willingness to acknowledge the effect on mental health when you have a senior government adviser (yes you Devi) telling folk tough shit and to get on with it. It's truly shameful the long standing damage that has been done to people. 38 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he'll take inspiration from Reynard again and go back to living in his garden shed. 1 hour ago, Pie Of The Month said: Not sure what difference 18 days makes unless that's how long it takes to hack the bottom of doors off but another step in the right direction It will be 'the science', of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Meanwhile, as predicted: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-60328163 White House left behind as states drop Covid rules Quote But sceptics have accused them of following polling data as frustration grows among a pandemic-weary public and November's mid-term elections loom. 'Follow the science' only when it suits, just like Sturgeon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 If the infection factories don't need mask mandates then triple vaccinated adults certainly don't need them either. Get the whole charade in the bin now where it belongs. The entire rationale for masking, logically CANNOT be anything else other than an interpretation arrived at by a tiny committee of wealthy folk, that "we might aswell, its no that much of a bother".There is nothing you can point at and be backed by evidence that they are needed, proportionate or even beneficial. In fact, mask us is now at the point where the folk who point to the amount of non biodegradable waste they produce have significantly more of a case than anyone mandating their use. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I only found out today that a chap I know through work - not a pal by any stretch but more than just a nodding acquaintance, the same age as me and someone that I'd shared the occasional beer with at functions - took his own life last summer. He ran a regional office for a global operator in our industry. It seems the pressure being exerted from multiple sources became intolerable. A really sad story. I now know of one suicide but no-one who has died of Covid in the past two years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiming that one in three people is vulnerable when in fact the ONS states that the number of clinically vulnerable people in the UK is 3.7 million - or around 7 per cent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clown Job Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 18 hours ago, oaksoft said: Actually, on the point of suicides, she's dismissive of that argument, saying there's "no link between restrictions and suicides". A friend of my parents decided to jump out his high rise flat during the original lockdown Now we can’t say for 100% the lockdown was the cause…. But he was a single guy, stuck in a tiny flat all day couldn’t even go sit in the park to enjoy the sunshine, let alone meet with any family or friends. Furloughed from work, became more and more regressive as the weeks went on. Cant say for sure that’s what causes him to take the decision to jump, but it would need to be a very good argument to convince me otherwise 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is an absolute psycho in the same league as Gurdasani. It genuinely gives me immense satisfaction that these people's worldview is beginning to crumble round about them and they will need to either become de facto hermits or slink back into the real world, such is the bad faith, untruths and damage done to mental wellbeing. Sick in the head c**ts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's having to have this dragged out of her. The most frustrating thing about all of this is that absolutely nobody at all will question her on the logic of any of this shite. It's as though we simply don't have a political opposition in Scotland. If that's the extent of rolling back the masking in Scotland, which is still two and a half weeks away, then we're surely looking at another month at least of it after that being imposed on the rest of us. F**k off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
