cheers Rammy.
Wasting my time with a conspiracy nut. But will chuck him this anyway

seems indeed was a waste of time.

he sent me back a video of girl shaking uncontrollably after having the vaccine - looked fake. But has thousands of comments underneath saying how dangerous vaccines are. So yeh, social media is the worst thing to happen.
 
Covid now as dangerous as flu, following the successful vaccination programme.
Any talk of further restrictions, vaccine passports, or lockdowns is insane.
At mate of mines lad died with the fucking thing last week 44 years old and a top blue we've watched grow up from a boy, had first jab no under lying health conditions his Dad will be well chuffed when I'd tell him its as dangerous as flu.FFS.

Facebook is a horrible place.
 
I very much hope you’re right but it’s looking increasingly unlikely. What % would you say need to be vaccinated then for this to happen?
With it being such an infectious disease its reckoned 95% with need to vaccinated and as I doubt there's 5% who have medical reasons for not being vaccinated it should be achievable, for the terminally thick who think its to allow Bill Gates to track em I hope they won't have to bother about that because with any luck they won't be going anywhere and the Government locks em in their fucking houses, permanently.
 
oh that's alright then.
seems there is a village somewhere that's lost it's idiot.
Indeed , not sure where he’s got the 10000 less deaths than normal since March. That’s possibly just a year issue, or the lack of people that have previously died. Or it’s just wrong.

a site with easy visual data of the deaths per week for the past 6 years is here:

it says it has been updated for July, but seems to have figures up to June 25th only.

This site i 1st came across, via some deniers, as they liked to point out that deaths were hardly high, until that big red hump appeared and they stopped…

You can easily see the death waves, and (this is the main thing regarding March+) that there is some variation in ‘normal’ years in spring/summer, but autumn/early winter is pretty consistent.
 
I'm not sure we are. Less than 40,000 cases from over a million tests yesterday which was down from 48,000 the day before, and 54,000 the day before that. Could it be that we have already peaked in terms of daily cases? Yesterday's further lifting of restrictions could of course lead to a further spike but I can't help thinking that it's going to struggle to find big numbers of people to infect soon.
If only this was the case unfortunately as the disease mutates its reinfecting people, thankfully the vaccine programme and protection inferred to people who've already had the disease are keeping hospital admissions and deaths lower than earlier in the pandemic for now.
