It warms the heart to see even as we approach the end of days, winning an argument on the Internet is still important.

No it isn’t

The care home have told the public health authority they were linked to Covid-19 so they will be added on tuesday as per everyone else who dies at home.

No one has suggested they aren't going to be counted except Karen.

linked but not tested,it remains to be seen if they are counted

I'm not sure about that. There was a great article on CNN about possible vaccine time and I doubt it can't be rushed anymore than around 18 months time. The idea to make it go ahead a bit is to start producing potential vaccines before they get approval so to not wait on production when it's done. Bill Gates yesterday said he will finance 7 fabrics for 7 different vaccine candidates to fulfill that idea.



There were some fuckups with vaccines before, one among them in the time of Ford presidency and it had caused loads of suing of government, because it wasn't properly tested and caused problems and deaths.

Found this interesting. Seems there is a bit of a head start which allows for skipping or overlapping testing, as the vaccines are based on previous vaccines they started on but lost interest in as they thought there wasn’t enough money in them. So could be slightly quicker, especially if we work together and not in competition with different companies and governments.

Not sure it will be Tuesday as Scottish figures are done differently , but yes they will get added to the UK figures at some point.

I run a pub.

Car park is cordoned off. People today ignoring it and just randomly hopping into it doing a daily run around.

I even had a group of woman who met and did a YOGA session on the car park.

I’m in a remote area so am surrounded by farm land etc, it’s walkers country out here and from what I can see, people are just blatantly ignoring advice.

3 times I’ve been down today to ask people to disappear.

The thing that pisses me off most, is that it is mine and the wife’s space now. We are lucky and consequently not going out onto the street, each morning we do 40 laps of the car park (it’s big) and often use the beer garden to sit out in, away from anyone else. We are constantly having to fight off people coming into an environment that is very clearly closed.

Wheres your pub Proy ?

Perhaps they think the Zombies will be coming in hordes.

extensive research on selected victims of the virus Covid19 has revealed the strain is taking a new turn, it apears the virus is not concentrating on the respiratory system in a number of patients but however is attacking the brain of the victim by entering the spinal cord. Once the victim is deceased doctors were shocked to find the brain remaind alive however not in the form as we understand it,it had no thoughts,no coordination just simply a desire to eat flesh from humans and animals,the infected became violent in there search for flesh and have been spotted walking aimlessly across fields and parks, due to this they have been called walkers,the numbers of these 'walkers' are growing throughout the country and must be eliminated at all cost,a simple blow the the head will disable the walker and it should die soon afterwards

It will be faster, no doubt about it. The 18 months that is usually mentioned is still 3-4 times faster than usual time it takes to approve average vaccine. It takes sometimes a decade or more to do it.

The goverement do very much give a shit and anyone accusing them of not is a pleb.

as has been stated many times by goverment and health officials, the numbers will rise or be high for a good few weeks before our lockdown measures can be observed - then hopefully the curve and drop down in figures begins.

So why have the country not imprenented a more severe lockdown than attempt he moment I mean I get it that supermarkets remain open but does the country really need all these little tin pot foreign food shops open on every corner . Chemist and essential supermarkets and that’s it what should be open.

Here is the CNN article I was talking about. It's a great read about possible vaccine time.
