Only the most severe lockdown as practiced in China would have an effect and getting the effective R0 below below 1 would be neigh on impossible.

If it’s significantly more transmissible than anything seen previously, then even that won’t do. Absent an army of hazmat suited essential workers the world over making sure everything is provided to the rest of us sat waiting to be fed/watered in our homes, and providing everything else required to survive in our homes, then the lid is not being kept on it, and the best we’d be doing locking down the Uk is delaying the inevitable.

Not to mention the ceasing of day to day treatment of other ailments/illnesses that are life threatening.
 
I really am not famous. I am a specialist. Folk involved in that field may know me. A few celebs do too (I once briefly appeared on a rock album that way!) I also appeared briefly in a well known novel as a character in there was a fan of my books - happily not the killer! - and the author asked my permission to use my name which was nice of him.

But truly I am not remotely a household name. And for family reasons prefer not to say more. I might when I do quit here but it will mean zilch to practically everyone.

And tbh that day when I do quit is getting near after tonight. It is that or writing another book and that book is starting to look really tempting.

Time to get tough, compulsory vax and fuck the do gooders off with their human rights shite. It’s almost a war now, serious problems need radical solutions, I know it won’t happen but the attitude of the anti vaxers is really pissing loads of people off, they’re all selfish fuckers.

I’ll be honest, I couldn’t give a flying fuck if all the anti vaxxers just dropped dead overnight.

if the new variant is as bad as it sounds you are going to be busy!?? For fuck sake. That says it all. Genuinely if people care that Stockport is “beating” Oldham every single day for 18 months they have absolutely shit lives whether you call me an attention seeker or not. I find it odd. Very odd.

Absolutely shit lives? Why for having an interest in a subject that effects everyone of us?
You could have kept your own counsel, but decided it would get you some attention, anyhow back to my shit life. Do be do. X

I posted some people seem obsessed with it. HP asked if anyone dare name names so I named the names. Her being one.

And I will stick to my opinion that it is unhealthy to post about Covid 5 times a day for 18 months.

I held my counsel in it for several months. Rubaituesday barely posts on any thread ever part from this one and seems almost excited by the new variant! It’s taken over his and Hps life! For fuck sake I had it bad and was in hospital and my mum has had it bad but I still get on with life like many others. If I can’t say on this thread that some people (2) seem absolutely obsessed then I apologise but you were the one who started posting the attention seeking bollox. Enjoy seeing Trafford beating Oldham - personally I couldn’t give a fuck and am entitled to that opinion.

and take more than a kiss to upset me??? Do be do.

xxxxxxxx

The best obsessions are always about someone else's obsession.

The cognitive dissonance really ups the ante.

I mean. Yeah. But nah! Obviously a little bit. But NO EFFING WAY! You're so stupid! And a liar! Not that I'm perfect. But I fucking well am aren't I!

Why did you feel the need to comment at all? On any forum, if you dislike a thread so much the best option is to stay away from it. You seem to have been drawn to this one like a moth to a flame.

I don’t dislike the thread at all. It’s a good thread. I commented some people seem obsessed and almost exited by negative news and I got a rant back asking to name names so I did. That ok?
