During lockdown 1 when we all knew fook all he seemed quite a reassuring presence but now we have a bit of knowledge as to what is happening he has been shown for the gobshite he is. He needs to stop using data protection as an excuse to not answer any questions he doesn't like as well. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some professionals have expressed concern that 18 months of social distancing and mask wearing might have lowered the population immunity and are predicting a pretty substantial return. See also RSV. That's the thing with some viruses, you catch them all the time which counterintuitively actually keeps you safe. Most sensible virologists and epidemiologists not connected to government funding were saying exactly this at the time but were stonewalled. You don't beat a pandemic by locking people away, that only extends it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be the first test of combining them with the flu vaccine on the old and vulnerable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How fairly sure are you that he used the wrong word ? 80, 90%? And more pertinently how on earth does it matter as you along with others managed to grasp the meeting? (sorry, I meant meaning) ?

Well no, but it is symptomatic of the intellect we have had controlling us for the past while. Everyone makes mistakes, particularly when speaking in public. However, the bright ones know immediately and acknowledge their error, usually by some humour, the not so bright ones don't even notice. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTeapot Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I mean, there is no actual defined 'long covid' anyway, so persistence of symptoms over a period of time is a reasonable way to look at it. And kids have symptoms of stuff ALL THE TIME anyway, which gets a mention. They basically aren't affected. Let it rip. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
