Having Taxa Genomics on board would have been a major scoop for DfE... they could have dined out on this for years to come with bucket loads of 'free' advertising. Success breeds success and I'm sure other biomed entrepreneurs and even some established firms would have given very serious thought to setting up here. But then IOMG always has this knack of shooting itself in the foot. Pillocks. You, me and many others have said the same, I dare say if there was a poll the overall majority would vote to see Dr Glover return, no time for pride in a national emergency. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nom de plume Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Look, I'll lay it out. I'm sure many, myself included, aren't that enamoured with the sycophantic Rachel Glover love in - she does come across as a bit of a gobshite on social media (don't we all) but it's quite clear her professional skills would be beneficial to our Island right now, conflict or not. Jose Mourinho isn't everyone's cup of tea but the guy can manage football teams. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their leader does what the hell he wants, as any dissent leads to a life in a punishment labour camp, or worse. Get a grip, there’s zero comparison. I was talking about Boris Johnson, not the Chinese leader. 😁 Mind you, Boris may introduce them soon..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nom de plume Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) So 21 in total, from community transmission. That's a fuck load of T&T ... impossible to reach every contact. We've just got to hope everyone hankers down properly for the next two weeks. Edited January 12, 2021 by Nom de plume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you its down solely to people travelling and not the lack of testing? Also, they clearly stated the first case was a person here on a contractual reason not a returning resident (unless I misundedstood) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) Quite simply the borders were too porous under the quarnatine and non-testing regime in place. Particularly into December as the new variant spread and factors such as people spending more time indoors influenced the pandemic.
