Sorry to sound so heartless here, and no-one likes folk dying, but we’re dealing with a virus that - like the flu - is here to stay and can now only be managed within reasonable parameters. We accept , but do not like, cancer deaths. We work towards reducing them but we know it’s a thing, an incurable thing for so many. 200 is shit, but if you think Covid is going away then you’re puddled.

Numbers are unpleasantly high, but looking at the link I posted, there is categorically a case for getting vaccinated. Still around 20% of those eligible not double done. Not beyond the realms of possibility that some restrictions may come in again over winter, but it was clear that our society wouldn't accept continued lockdowns etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Winchester White Posted September 22, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 22, 2021 Been pinged by the app this morning. Apparently been within 2m of someone for 15 minutes on 19th. So that will be the tube, wearing a mask or the train home. As I am double jabbed I just have to have a PCR test, seems reasonable.

Site Supporter Spider Posted September 22, 2021 Author Site Supporter Share Posted September 22, 2021 Text from primary school. Several positive cases. Sensibly, they've just asked parents to test kids every night for a couple of weeks rather than send them all home. My daughter has had cold symptoms for a few days so I'll test her. This approach is much better. We know kids aren't suffering with it, but slowing the spread is still a good idea. It's still all very tiresome.
