Theres plenty out there that do and there’s plenty of careers reliant on that industry. Not quite It's based on what folk on here have said, admittedly a small number, there's only MW who wants to be back out and about, others don't want to commute anymore now they've had a taste of WFH And I agree, a lot depends on commuters and office workers I've had a home office for nearly 4 years now, I've no where else to go Anyway, that's the industry that will suffer most long term I reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

green genie Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 The ONS getting dead analysis explains Govt dilemma. 20-50 yr olds have spiked while the double jabbed above are below average levels. Still measures in the dozens so most in that age group would say crack on but another month would probably get vaccination into most. https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=eyJrIjoiYmUwNmFhMjYtNGZhYS00NDk2LWFlMTAtOTg0OGNhNmFiNGM0IiwidCI6ImVlNGUxNDk5LTRhMzUtNGIyZS1hZDQ3LTVmM2NmOWRlODY2NiIsImMiOjh9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Good Knee Posted June 9, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2021 The most ironic covid decision I've seen is stopping the handful of veterans from travelling to France for the unveiling of the British D Day memorial, they're all in thier 90,s, probably most won't be able to make the journey again. Wonder about the outcome had the government been so concerned about their welfare 70 odd years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole point of the vaccine programme is to reduce cases (via herd immunity) to such low levels that as well as keeping people well, the chances of new variants emerging become very small. Should one occur, it may well die out because of a lack of potential hosts and therefore an opportunity to thrive. No doubt continued monitoring and sequencing will allow any subsequent cases to be investigated, and the design of any top up vaccinations altered. Such a huge focus now on getting folk double jabbed; the benefits are self-evident. If, and its a big if, they decide to give it another month to achieve a greater proportion of double jabbed people, then so be it. Far preferable to some further steps back later by way of increased restrictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted June 9, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2021 The biggest danger now is a mutation in countries that are way behind with vaccines. Its why foreign travel is being curbed so heavily and that I can understand. But I think that here on treasure island we should now be free to go about our business as normal.

gonzo Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 If furlough, kick backs, bounce back loans and WFH ended tomorrow folk would soon change their tunes. WFH isn’t a right, get to fuckin work like everybody else. Neither are more bail outs. Switch the tap off and see how all these fuckers sat at home calling for more restrictions see it then.

If that's not the case then fucked if i know the way out of this other than to get on with it That’s my point further up. There’s always going to be a percentage without the jab. That percentage is a breeding ground for the jab and makes the chance of mutation greater. Muslims, anti vaxers, kids, folk who can’t have it etc ...we will never be able to vaccinate the whole population therefore the thing will be around forever.
