Do people think there would be a local lockdown? Folk will go crazy. I’ve stopped caring if they do now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a start, they’ll require a NHS number; problem! Their lack of any ability to identify themselves as here as an asylum seeker would alert the immigration authorities; problem! How the hell do you convince someone who shouldn’t even be here to have a jab?

jmjhb Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Given how well the vaccination program is going and there isn't a noticeable increase in hospitalisations or deaths I don't think a lockdown is the right answer, but I don't know what is.

Big E Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 People kicking off. If you have a high rate you locked down. Seems a good idea to me. I mean the dirty scousers seem to be managing it and you lot are all far more superior than them. Remember when they all had their test events thinking they are cool.

Cannon fodder It is a good idea, and it's the way that we're going to go, basically stamping out any small outbreaks. Anybody who doesn't think it's a good idea needs their bumps feeling. It'd be a shame for Bolton, as it's been on lockdown since about August, but I guess it's just tough shit really. The thing is, any further lockdown is going to see more and more people ignoring it and flaunting the rules, which obviously doesn't help anybody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don’t open indoor hospitality in Bolton, folks will just go elsewhere. And Boris said we were all coming out together, so he’s in for a kicking if we are locked down again. Jab all from 16? The figures seem to show that it isn’t transmitting from young folks to those who have been vaccinated (the vulnerable) No need to lock down and, from my current perspective, a bad idea.

Generally yes I agree. My only concern is the fact that despite good figures, not every vaccinated person is protected. It would be particularly disappointing if an older parent was to suffere an avoidable infection because of a few small minded folk. The issue of long covid is still ongoing, but I think the biggest concern is the as yet unknown ability of the Indian variant to get round current vaccines. I think initial indicators are that it doesn't particularly do so, fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 This is from the BEN : Quote The areas with the lowest vaccine coverage include Central Bolton (46.3 per cent), Burnden and Great Lever (46.6 per cent) and Rumworth North (47.9 per cent) and there's a similar picture in some areas in Blackburn. If the vulnerable in those areas haven't been vaccinated then there's no chance the young uns will... ...unless it means they can't do stuff and get in places and there doesn't seem to be anyone wanting to go down that path, maybe some paying lip service to it but that's all.

deane koontz Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 is it easing up much in India or is it still a bloodbath? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big E Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Can’t believe people wouldn’t support a lockdown when their area is struggling. Madness. Makes sense. Let the rest of us crack on and those who don’t stay lockdown. People soon change their ideas when they realise they can’t do stuff. Couple of guys I work with won’t put that shite in their bodies.....now the wife wants to go to Portugal and you need a passport they are prepared to protect the vulnerable.
