I think that the issue we have always had in the UK is that we have a quite "liberal" society. One that lives and let lives. Probably one of the reasons why so many want to come here from far flung despotic regimes, and see our little island as a haven for that same reason.It is binary choice.
You/One can either be part of society and take the vaccine or you can be a poorly educated (not thick as you note) selfish fucker and not bother.
As 90% needing oxygen right not aren’t vax’d then I guess I’m happy either way. I just wish they’d gasp for air at home rather than adding to the strain on the health service.
Where I live over 94% are double vaccinated (and that number are expected to also get the booster now they’ve started doing them), apparently education levels are far higher in the Far East. Or maybe people are less selfish. Who knows.
He helpfully provides evidence in each of the following posts. None of it is particularly controversial. People don't want to hear it, but the facts are the facts. Society has just weighed up the costs/benefits differently this time, with the most notable difference being that Omicron is linked with much less lung damage than previous variants, and this is strongly linked to a limited risk of death / incubation. But a lot of the rest is debatable. Subjective decisions have been made. Personally, I'm not comfortable with there being no evidence that neurological damage is less of a factor. The choices society has made disappoint me, but that's the truth about democracy. I don't chose - everyone does. The fact is, people have accepted this is the way forward, and I also accept there was no golden bullet or gaurantee we could succesfully do much about the rest.and what evidence is there for any of that?
the term is neurological damage. they already demonstrated that the loss of smell is linked to damage to glial cells (what we call grey matter). as the original studies involved the inspection of brains removed from people who died from earlier variants, they arrived several months into the first wave. meaning it's clearly a bit soon to expect similair studies specific to omicron.Ive just googled “omicron brain damage” as many of my family members have had it and so have I. Given your tweet you’ve replied with, I was expecting to see articles and studies showing it may or does cause brain damage.
Having googled it, the only Google results related to the brain say you can get brain fog whilst having any Covid.
Why did you feel the need to post that? Are you looking for a response?
Are you trying to worry people who have this variant or who’s family have it?

Still, I would think it childish to pretend it is a decision that doesn't come with risks and costs - the point is, some of which may be hard to spot / provide evidence for at this stage.
So it’s total bollocks and hyperbole.the term is neurological damage. they already demonstrated that the loss of smell is linked to damage to glial cells (what we call grey matter). as the original studies involved the inspection of brains removed from people who died from earlier variants, they arrived several months into the first wave. meaning it's clearly a bit soon to expect similair studies specific to omicron.
As stated before, the fact is, we know people with Omicron are losing their sense of their smell. And this was properly and fully established as linked to damage to neurological structures, specifically, glial cells. Which are in the brain, dumbass. Damage to cells in the brain.There’s no evidence of brain damage.
There’s no evidence society will collapse.

In fact, loss of sense of smell with Omicron is less common than Delta or Alpha, so it’s no more damaging to the brain than them, less in fact. Drinking alcohol damages brain cells, smacking your head on your head board does. Using the term “brain damage” in relation to this variant is pure scaremongering and you know it, “dumbass”.As stated before, the fact is, we know people with Omicron are losing their sense of their smell.

That tweet was specifically about omicron and how mild it is.google covid brain damage rather than omicron. Its been attacking the brain in lots of cases since the very start but what exactly gets damaged or if it’s long term is still not anything I’ve seen.
I couldn’t smell when I used to smoke, brain damaged then.I’ve lost the sense of taste and smell a hundred times with a cold but fuck it, we are now suffering brain damage I see lol.
*climbs back under the duvet scares of life*

I had covid in August / September, still not got my smell back , and so not all my taste too. Hoping it fully comes back.I couldn’t smell when I used to smoke, brain damaged then.
Depends where you live pal I suppose :-)I had covid in August / September, still not got my smell back , and so not all my taste too. Hoping it fully comes back.
Granted he’s a click baiter but by the same note we know covid does these things. Until we know for sure omicron doesn’t do them it’s safer to assume it does.That tweet was specifically about omicron and how mild it is.
We know Omicron behaves different and we already know it’s more likely to go into your throat than lungs for example.
That **** tweeting doesn’t know what omicron does to the brain, yet he’s dropping terms like “brain damage” to frighten people.
File under attention seeking ****.
It’s insinuating there’s something about omicron and brain damage. Cunts trickGranted he’s a click baiter but by the same note we know covid does these things. Until we know for sure omicron doesn’t do them it’s safer to assume it does.
Im really curious about long covid with omicron. I reckon ( total uneducated guess work ) that If no long covid then a lot of the other random things like heart scaring and brain issue down to covid toe will vanish with it.
No...I thought it was nonsense. And yeah, i was looking to see what people thought about it. I don't know who the guy is.Ive just googled “omicron brain damage” as many of my family members have had it and so have I.
