Let's build a all inclusive in Afghanistan.

Three nation cases with England to come - 4 wks v 3 wks v 2 wks v last wk v Today

2984 v 2169 v 1815 v 1448 v 1389 Today

As you can see the cases are falling but week to week finding it harder to fall dropping week to week by 815 then 354 then 367 then 59.

But at least it is down and Tuesday is always a weekend catch up day.

Anyone who is shielding, have you heard anything ? I guess it's back to work on Monday :) unless we hear.

Not heard a thing. Seeing as they have just added another 1.7 million to the shielding list, I would be doubtful about going back Monday.

Might look those books up, that's exactly how it works. I belong to an astronomy club and one of the members got invoved with videoing simple experiments to prove a flat earther wrong online. They kept coming back with more arguments. I've not been to the club for I year now but would bet he's still on that hamster wheel we we get back to meetings.

I have experienced the same thing with a climate change denier.

As it happens, I have met both authors. Stephen Law is a good laugh and his book isn’t a dry piece of writing - it’s actually quite entertaining.

Will Storr is a good guy too. Found out that he lived locally near a school I used to teach at, so I got him in to talk to one of my sixth-form classes.

In the earlier book of his that I read, the style reminded me a bit of Jon Ronson.

I am shielding my wife with latter stage ms and I haven't heard a fucking squeak about when we will get vaccination despite ringing my gp till they are sick of me

I’ve posted about this idiot before but a friend of my wife’s is a community nurse visiting her patients at home or in care homes. She has refused her offered vaccination as in her mid 50s she has become a fanatical vegan so she won’t have it because it has been tested on animals. All the medication she dishes out has been tested on animals FFS.

She has been ranting on to my wife and other friends about her ‘human rights’ as now she has been told she can’t visit patients unless she has it. She is a fucking selfish nutter and if she won’t have it then she’ll have to find another job. Fuck her.

P45 should be through her letterbox ASAP. And for many on here that is not a euphemism :-)

Going by what's in the press/media now hopefully you and yours should get the jab soon

1.7 million more people urged to shield with many getting vaccine priority

Around 1.7 million more people are being urged to shield in England after experts identified additional adults at serious risk of Covid-19.

i really thought we would see the death rates come down a lot quicker ..

 

[johnnytapia]

nope, yours is rubbish. There's a choice with multiple vaccines available and people should get their preference if they have one. It's their body and their future.

It’s not the penny fucking tray
