"Let's not overreact here and have a sense of perspective. There have been many occasions when we've seen larhe protests, crowded parks and beaches accompanied by the same fears of imminent national doom which didn't occur. Schools have gone back and teachers aren't dying in droves any more than schoolkids or front line retail staff are winding up in hospital filling all the ICU beds. Extreme binary positions in terms of arguments are never good but that's all we seem to get and it's not healthy."  | |||

"Fantastic ..... thousands waking up
waking up to what exactly? even if they don’t believe in virus or restrictions or masks, things are in the process of getting better , restrictions are easing and they are throwing their toys out he pram for what exactly? "It's a bit like my science teacher. "if everyone can be quiet for ten minutes you can go out to lunch." And Simon (I'm thinking of a real classmate, not his name) won't stfu. I'm hungry. I've sat deathly still. I need to pee. I know it seems unfair but just shut up. I'm doing my bit for the love of God, Simon, shut the fuck up. | |||

In London we are witnessing the poison that social media injects into malleable minds. The only waking up that is needed is for people to realise that not everything they see and hear on social media is actually true.

"Fantastic ..... thousands waking up
Rather then waking up they need to grow up "It's not immaturity that us the problem. Most people seem to lack critical thinking and the ability to do proper research. This means that they are more likely to believe something on Social Media than from a reputable source. | |||

Funny how the government are hypocritical when it serves you, but the downgrading of Covid, a cynical government ploy given PPE shortages, suits you just fine.
Maybe you should do your research. Try vaguely credible sources. | |||

Our corner shop is the hub of the community and the owner contracted Covid in late December and he was dead before the end of the month. He was 48, a runner and in good health. The local primary school have had two two teachers off with long Covid and a GP at the surgery has retired at 56 with massive complications from Covid that he contracted in April last year. You can quote all the percentages you want but we in our community have experienced Covid trauma, it is a fact that this has been replicated across the country and zinnia is an unfolding disaster. | |||

"you really are being a muppet arent you. Do you know anything about 'causality'. I know its a big word for you so here is the definition. Causality (also referred to as causation, or cause and effect) is influence by which one event, process, state or object (a cause) contributes to the production of another event, process, state or object (an effect) where the cause is partly responsible for the effect, and the effect is partly dependent on the cause. So ... *sigh* ... you catch Covid and then develop organ failure (or whatever) and die becasue of the stresses Covid puts on your body/immune system. Without Covid the other illnesses dont play out and you dont die. Cause and Effect." But the Telegraph once said it could include being hit by a bus. End lockdown, ban buses. | |||

"If the quantity of people reported to have taken the vaccine is true and the protection it offers is valid. Then there's no reason to stop people mixing. The goal was to reduce deaths, not people catching it... job done. The marches and objections are due to the vaccine being rolled out prolifically and we still have to stay indoors and now possible have to have a internal passport." I've not had a single damn vaccine. I'm not alone. Viruses mutate to evade protection, I'd like mine to work. Vaccines don't work for everyone, not everyone, they deserve protection by bringing the disease burden down. People need to be patient - we're getting there - and think of people other than themselves. | |||

"I wonder how many protestors are puppets of Putin and Xi jingping, both lovers of controlling "their" people. Maybe the protestors should go to the freedom loving countries of Russia and China to protest." Yes, I'm genuinely concerned about Russian misinformation making its way to the population and is the cause of some of this bullshit. I also find it *fucking hilarious* (concerning, but hilarious) that apparently sensible conservatives follow openly Russian news so slavishly. I just... Cold War? Continued suspicion?

"Covid has polarised things in many ways, which has been detrimental in lots of ways, but irrespective of perspective and our individual position, several things are undeniably true: A) We're currently closer than we've been to getting back to normal than at any point so far. B) If we all just hang in and do what we're told for a few more weeks that path will remain true. C) We've repeatedly gone back into lockdown in one way or another due to high infection rates - whether we believe its lethal or not. It's not death rates doing it. D) It's the infection rate figures that create the plan, for better or worse. E) With the inoculation rates now coming on so quickly the risk are statistically far less. ......all of which begs the question......why be an utter moron and be the reason to risk yet another lockdown? Like the government approach or not, it'll be stats that determine what happens next. Don't be a selfish dickhead basically. " Absolutely agreed. | |||

"No Phds, no degrees, a few O levels & vocational qualifications ..which they don't do in epidemiology, probably for a reason...but I can't get my under educated head around the reason for a government to tell us into the hundred thousands of people have died, when only 600 have. given that a Governments job is to get re elected, we would actually be world leaders in controlling the virus... Only 600...really "Who'd have thought it... I know personally 1/150th of the entire COVID death toll of the country! | |||

Absurd how people have become increasingly empowered to dismiss data / facts / information / opinion / reasoning from someone else because of an attribute about them.

If you didn't have the 28 day timeline, what would you have, 2 days, 3 days, a week? Most folks don't die the same day they contract an illness,any illness, its generally a small stay in a hospital first. | |||

"Let's not overreact here and have a sense of perspective. There have been many occasions when we've seen larhe protests, crowded parks and beaches accompanied by the same fears of imminent national doom which didn't occur. Schools have gone back and teachers aren't dying in droves any more than schoolkids or front line retail staff are winding up in hospital filling all the ICU beds.

"Covid didn't kill 130.000 or put 400.000in hospital the real number covid killed is around 600 the rest died within 28 days of a positive test look it up So, if someone was knocked down by a car today and died 21 days later from their injuries, would not that be classed as death due to injuries sustained in the car a accident. If you didn't have the 28 day timeline, what would you have, 2 days, 3 days, a week? Most folks don't die the same day they contract an illness,any illness, its generally a small stay in a hospital first. Liz and Paul, I suspect you are wasting your logic on these particular viewpoints. Just smile, nod and back away from them "Wish I'd taken your advice months ago. Now, even when I chant the mantra "I must not look at Virus thread" I'm still frighteningly drawn, like a moth to a light and live to regret it each time. Please, please Mr Normality, come back into our lives and let swingers sites be just that. | |||

" You can't reason with someone who is being unreasonable. I know the following as facts. It killed my mum in a slow tortured and ghastly death. I know its a virus that is sometimes very easily spread and sometimes causes or leads to a horrible death. And sometimes causes terrible complications and long term consequences. I know that thankfully in most cases people seem to recover. And just as we have no evidence of long term consequences of the vaccines. We also have no evidence of the long term consequences of this virus. I know if we let community infections get out of control again the consequences are severe. Now... What do we choose to do with that info? Me? I choose to take a few easy precautions to reduce the risk of spreading or catching it. " Sorry for your loss
I can't even imagine how infuriating it must be to see people acting the way they when you've lost someone so close to you. You're handling it with a lot more decorum than I would | |||

A Paramedic of my acquaintance down in Worcester also caught it and passed, despite beingas fit as a fiddle. As a result I find the moronic, selfish types hard to stomach. | |||

I’m all for normality to return, it’s been a few weeks since we’ve lost someone to Covid in my department and that’s something I celebrate.

Wow. So you actually think over 100000 people have died of covid in the UK so far? "Amazing isn’t it... a person who’s worked in a city centre ICU and has personally sat with over 200 individuals during the past 12 months whilst their organs failed and they passed away can’t do the simple maths of looking at the reported figures and draw a conclusion that they aren’t made up. Then expand that thinking to trusts across the U.K. knowing they all use the same reporting method. For the record I don’t believe the current 130k is accurate. I know there are 10,000’s more than that who have died after the 28 day reporting window, there’s 10,000’s who indirectly through reduced services have lost their battle with other serious illnesses. We’ll know in time the true cost of Covid. I suspect it will pass 200k in total. I suspect we will also have another million with serious health implications for the remainder of their lives to deal with too. | |||
