They will provide an excellent diary and aide memoire of where you have been. I find working out how much I've spent scares me... 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoTail Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 am I alone in wondering what sort of important high flyer who gets permission to work here in the pandemic spends his or her time at 1886, the casino and takeaways? Maybe a lawyer or surgeon or bank executive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just being able to see it is not a reason to shoot. Is it one of your own side? We cannot see this coronavirus, but locking down is effectively shooting. The situation is that, not that we can not see it, but we do not know if it is even there! The reality is, after 3-5 days following the 1886 incident, if there was any real spread, someone would have come forward for a test by now. Sure, this new strain may have some different dynamics, but who is to say it is the new variant? Did the index really do the 14 days? (Read 12 1/12 days). No! Until there is proof that there is any reason to introduce suppression, things should stay as they are. You Sir are an idiot who does not know anything about Virology, Epidemiology or anything come to that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best guess is maybe they were staying at the Hotel, the casino has a bar, maybe went for a few drinks, you don’t need to be a high flyer to spend a few quid on a slot machine.

Kopek Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Reality check. Altho 'deep cleaning' is often mentioned in news reports, I don't think it is an officially sanctioned procedure . The life span of the virus is fairly low, soft furnishings should be clear the next morning, anti viral spray cleaning, after closing or more likely, the next morning will render the hard surfaces, the tables and chairs, the bit of the Bar we all lean on should make that 'safe'? The greatest danger is from the droplet transmission on the night, who doesn't speak to the person next to you at the bar? The usual distrust of the HQ/DA pronouncement of everything is under control is that they are not saying if the person at the centre of this was positive when he arrived on the Island or whether he was infected after coming out of quarantine, in which case it is the community. I'm cautious at the moment, it does not make any difference to me if he was + on entry or picked it up later, I will still be cautious. So, just tell the truth!!!

Gaming industry know gambling only for people who cannot understand overround and law of large numbers. Since went to 1886, if healthcare likely it junior doctor or similar.
