So if you knew for certain you had a cold or 'flu you'd just carry on as normal?

Get on trains, go shopping, gym, match etc. spreading it?

Yeah, think so

And I wouldnt expect other folk to wear a mask, either

Getting colds, coughs and sniffles makes the world go round

If I had flu, I'd be in bed

To be fair that is what we have been doing for years and would be doing now if it was not for the virus. There is an argument that for less lethal versions it is better to just get it spread and go for the herd immunity, obvious flaw is that you do not know what is lethal.

i hate wearing a mask but if there are rules/guidelines to say wear one I probably will. but when it comes to say a train to London or a flight i only will if i have to.

i am back working at a medical place and everyone says this is a standard approach, a pause to check there is no other data and to properly asses the risk.  Not really a story but standard practice.

I saw that was mooted at the last press conference, but not seen it confirmed anywhere, it was like " pubs, restaurants and non essential shops can open on the 26th Apr, with travel to and from Scotland on this date, or soon after" not heard anything since.

You're on the morning cattle train, some inconsiderate cunt sneezes either 'catching' it with bare hands, which then return to their handhold or, worse still, just fucking let it out there - arsehole's aerosols everywhere and half the carriage gets what they've got.

Sorry, it's a cunt's trick and we don't get 'herd immunity' with the common cold, hence the ubiquitous nature of it (usually).

The last three or four colds I've had I could tell you where I caught it and which twat atchoo-ed it with 90% certainty.

All these type of things, people older than amygdala-led yoof, not giving a flying fuck about anyone other than themselves or their own all add up to make a poorer world.

These types wouldn't plant a tree for future generations to enjoy its shade or climb its boughs - they might have to squat down or get their hands mucky.

This is the link I used to book at the local hospital

Online Appointment Healthcare Platform | Swiftqueue

 

just to add, when I had mine 3 weeks back that was the only way I could find to book summat online that was 15 minutes walk away rather than 15 miles drive.

Its worth noting that in the "side effects" list of any medication, every singe medical outcome - no matter how small and irrelevant - is noted and included on the sheet you get.

Paracetamol, for example - you wouldn't take a single one if you thought for a second you'd cop for some of the listed side effects.

As the vaccines are basically still on trial, any side effects that occur have to be noted, checked then added to the list of possibles. ALL OF THEM.

This has meant that, amongst many others, alcohol poisoning and pregnancy are on the list of Pfizer side effects since these medical conditions have occurred in people who have been jabbed.

So let's not panic.

Its half-term at work, only about 10 full-time staff in across the campus.

I haven't been wearing a mask in the corridors because there is no fucker in, no students, no teachers etc... I.T. chap just had a moan about me to someone in the office, soft fucker couldn't even come and see, so I popped down to him, he won't be talking to me for a while if ever again. Smiled at the office bods as I went past (they've not seen a smile in a long time 😁).

Loads of builders, electricians on campus as well, they ain't wearing them and I've no fucking problem with it.

Did your friend, the IT guy, have issues with the contractors not wearing them as well?

Bojo already making excuses to not open up fully by the 21st June, doom mongering as started, he states its mainly lockdown that as reduced deaths rather than the vaccine 🤔

He thinks we are fucking stupid, in fact the fucking lot of them do.

Bonkers no doubt folk will say il do another 3-6 months if it means everything will be ok 

boring 

Level 0 up here by mid June as well

Game changer they said, now its apparently not.

Cry Freedom, Hancock said, apparently not really

We will follow the data not dates, they really aren't 

Schnapps, "the barricades to get our freedoms back", yeah okay 

Bojo, the scientific cavalry has arrived, it did in the form of a vaccine, ... but that doesn't really work, it can't if he recommends that 2 people who are fully vaccinated shouldn't meet indoors 🤔

...and above all that they are still searching for new variants that will smash through a vaccine, but they haven't arrived yet, FUCK OFF!

I think maybe you’re overreacting 

Boris is correct when he says the lockdown has caused the massive drop, but he does go on to say the vaccine has helped and will be the thing that stops it coming back anything like the last year.

Caution at every step means we can keep taking steps forward.

#TeamBoris

More caution than a phil parkinson team

Of course we should panic; we’ve just bought 30m of this shit.

Wait until the 21st June, #TeamBoris will be finished if he doesn't open up fully. 

I'm #TeamFuckingNobody at the moment, shit opposition, back tracking politicians, in fact Mr Personality himself, Chris Whitty is running this country at the moment, and of he fully had his way, we'd be locked down for the foreseeable.

Us visionaries knew Boris would struggle.

Mocked, we were, mocked. Told we were just being negative nellies.

Genuinely not sure where you get the idea that things aren’t going to be fully open on 21st June? Maybe cabin fever has got to you. 
 

hope you can be trusted to be out amongst the general public for beers 😎
