Coronavirus (2021) thread

[Nightmare Walking]

my bro in law (nhs worker) who has already had covid last year, has had the first jab, has again tested positive.

That means absolutely nothing without any context and just comes across as fear mongering.
When did he have his first jab? When did he test positive for the 2nd time. How ill is he this time in comparison to the first time he tested positive?

Thought you would still test positive just not develop symptoms as the virus will still go up ones nosser

I like to imagine he's having to isolate in that horrendous narrow red room he does his web press conferences in.

I find it unbelievable that he's been preaching to people to stay in and avoid crowds and then he goes against his own fucking advice!
The man is a pompous arrogant tory tosser who has destroyed this country.

A couple of my daughters colleagues have tested positive after the vaccination but had no symptoms at all.

That study posted pages ago about the antibody levels being highest in Yorkshire than elsewhere is very interesting.

As I have been referencing in the data reports each day as it stands out as an anomaly - the one area not seemingly being impacted by this new wave right now is the very one that study found had the highest level of antibodies.

Yorkshire has carried on with modest numbers and risen from one of the worst impacted areas to now the best region in England in all the weekly data tables.

Seems unlikely this is a coincidence.

North West was second best and that fits too as GM is remaining reasonably unaffected by deaths even though there are rising cases.

The optimistic end point here is this becomes an endemic flu like illness which vaccines manage but do not stop you catching just stop the most vulnerable people dying from in all but modest numbers.

That looks like where both the virus mutations are heading and the data starting to support the vaccines might also take us.

I have no idea mate. I just thought Marks post came across as fear mongering. If anyone is going to post info like that, at least add a bit of context to it.
We need to hear both sides, the positive and negative, then we can make informed decisions in regards to our colkective safety.
Unfortunately Marks post makes it sound like you can be infected twice and the vaccine does not work.
Add some context at least.

So you're saying we should all be drinking Yorkshire tea?

Yup. We've learned nothing. Desperate to make the same mistake again and again and again. Depressing.

I'm fucking sick of everyone wanting to push the boundaries to the limit....take a step back, in the long-term it'll likely mean 'normality' arriving quicker.

Seems people are acting like a pisshead walking up the stairs, climb 3 stairs fall back down 2. Just wait until your sober and skip up them.

Lots of other things to think about too, currently. Have they only had one jab and therefore at the lower level of efficacy? How many days since their jab, i.e. under the recommended days from the 1st jab/2nd jab to optimal immunity? Don't think many will have reached second jab optimal immunity yet.

Started with symptoms today. Headache, cough (not bad, but regular) and got the shivers. FFS!

Got to say I'm a bit freaked out. I was yesterday, wondering when/if I'd get it, but shit just got real.

Mrs got symptoms last Friday, tested Sat, positive result Sunday morning. She's ok but feeling groggy and completely lost her voice now. I told her not to be working doing online lessons (from home) yesterday, but no...

Reckon she got it last Monday in school as a colleague who was working in the same staff-room tested +ve on Thursday. But who knows?

Can't believe the school were still insisting that they go in to do remote lessons. The cunts.

I got a test kit delivered, but spoke to Test and Trace (for her as she can't speak) and they said there's no point doing it now as we're isolating for 10 days from today anyway. Just assume I've also got it.

Fingers crossed for everyone who's in a similar boat.
