Slow news day, or end of the world?

”Aggressive” new variant has landed in Moscow. Makes people, even those that have been vaccinated, more poorly than previous types.

Time for Uncle Joe to push the button? Short term pain.

Well that was the media pap from a day or 2 back, but no doubt it’s  a loada bollox, like most paper talk.

The Indian stuff hasn't been ordered by the EU, therefore there was no requirement for them to apply for a licence to the EU regulator up until now, when it has been pointed out. They wouldn't approve anything unless an application was made, that's due process. It has now gone in for approval and it will be approved very soon.

How do you check?

Anyway, some interesting evidence coming out about mixing vaccines, and how a different "top up" may be administered. 

Looks like an autumn Pfizer is incoming. 

Set up an account online or on the NHS App to get access to your mediacal records (not the NHS Covid Tracker App) and you can view your  jab records, batch numbers and dates, get a pdf or QR of the certification.

Aye, found it now. It's also on the card.

Turns out both me and the missus had a shot from one of the so called unapproved batches.

 

Time to crack on then. 

Still people are whining.

We have to go back to normal.

I bet a fair few people have to “isolate” from Thursday onwards though, now they’ve found out a drop of lemon juice gives you a positive test…

I’ve got a sore throat and I can’t smell anything

I don't trust those rapid tests. Youngest has a cold, did the test really really faint line on positive, so we all did a test all negative..this morning she's negative and another after lunch at school, negative again.

Anyway, had second jab today. The stickers have come on I have to say, slightly thicker GSM with vinyl finish. Very nice.

We are self isolating at the moment despite 2 jabs and having had Covid before.

How do we learn to live with it if we have to isolate every time someone we come into contact with catches it?

Yeah sister is isolating after two of her pupils tested positive, she's had two jabs and her tests are negative.

I just think folk will stop doing the tests. I have to say 10 days when you clearly don't have it seem a bit much.

So if I have a positive test on the 18th does that mean technically I would need to isolate for 10 days whilst the pubs in England have no restrictions still?? Asking for a friend

Authoritarianism is in their DNA

Johnson is mainly a cunt.

But I’m with him on this stance of letting people use common sense.

Let the whining fuckers bicker and moan on the internet, most of them are folk who just don’t fancy going back to the office.

It simply doesn’t kill people anymore than regular flu because of the vaccine now.

If you’re scared of it, stay at home. But you’ll need some savings or an extremely sympathetic boss.

barring a really nasty variant, it’s time to act like normal human beings again. The hand holding is over.

 

 

Keep pushing those vaccines, and don't ease up as we exit restrictions. 

Mask burning at ours on the 19th

Cross burning at mine. 

My mates Dad has been doubled jabbed, yesterday he tested positive, no temp, no cough or lack of smell, just a bit of a cold 

Let’s crack on queers

So i can go to football, a gig or fucking tesco and not wear a mask but the NHS are still making us wear one in our office. Thank fuck im off for 10 and a half months after Friday. 

Enjoy your couple of months of "freedom". Guarantee we'll be locked down again in September when another mutation runs riot because a load of utter pussies might "feel oppressed 😥" by being asked to occasionally wear a mask indoors for a few more weeks.

Meanwhile, the right to peacefully protest is about to be taken away, and citizens who can't afford an official form of Identification won't be allowed to vote. This is England.

Not the truth, though.

 

need to read the facts, Cheese. As per

No need to WFH anymore 

Get back commuting and in the offices 

We have an economy to revive

Does this mean we're back to queuing at bars again? FFS

Runs riot? Deaths below 20 a day, infection rates don’t matter, unless said variant isn’t stopped by vaccination and deaths start leaping up then we should be cracking on.
