Coronavirus (2021) thread

By the way - today is the one year anniversary of the last day not one single person died in the UK from Covid.

The Times has a story today (behind pay wall) that every case of a sports professional in a study of football, rugby NFL and others - where players have tested positive - ALL have been traced to a contact indoors. None from playing or training outside.

How could you possibly even work that out given they spend all their time together all week? How can they prove they got it from passing each other in the dressing room and not a 20 minute face to face convo outside an hour earlier? Genuine question! Don't doubt that indoors is a vastly bigger driver of transmission, but it seems relatively fanciful to claim they know fully.

So the bame community in this country who are at higher risk of illness and death from covid don't want the vaccine. No problem, up to you.

Applying even a tiny scrap of thought or empathy would improve this from an ethical, pragmatic and humanitarian perspective.
