COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Unfortunately,by a large percentage,that basic requirement,and life skill, was abandoned a few years back.

Its always someone else's fault.......

scouse syndrome has permeated the fabric of our society.

very interesting food for thought;



(in her last sentence she means dotted orange line)

it's corresponding to the solid orange line peaks, if it carries on then I'd be concerned.

How these internationals have been allowed to go ahead is beyond me, every day more and more footballers testing positive and they still play meaningless games.

Along with dickhead syndrome.

Expected this thread to be a lot busier this morning, but seems to have subsided a little (it's an odd time at the moment - negative/positive upper cuts every other day).

The Oxford professor (Sharrock?) was on TV this morning discussing the bionTech vaccine. Seems as positive as most others thankfully.
Seems like this own vaccine could potentially be ready for the summer so I suspect this will be seen as a longer term vaccine (far cheaper and far easier to administer logistically).
The Pfizer/BioNtech one then (if it goes ahead) will be a costly but much needed shot in the arm.

Australia are already manufacturing the Oxford/AZ vaccine.

Another question for those that *may* know: is there any minor cause of concern for a mRNA vaccine given it's not been used on humans before. This is not an anti-vaxx weighted question btw (I'm certainly far from it) but it's something that is asked a bit.
Presumably worry of a synthetic innoculation rather than from a live or remnants of a dead virus.

Along with dickhead syndrome.

so indistinguishable I find.

This is her report on that...not sure about the name of the website mind:

I'm just getting through that article now. I haven't really explored the main body of content on that website, so cant comment on that, but as regards the name the traditional name of 'skeptic/sceptic' has been wrongly conflated with 'conspiracist' nowadays, in my eyes. I went to a scientific skeptic society for many years, it was merely questioning bodies of evidence, or theories etc. Nothing conspiracist at all about traditional skepticism.

It’s outrageous that infected clinicians are allowed to treat patients but that doesn’t make 71 million people scumbags. The next time I visit the states I won’t be looking at the election map. Just like I won’t be looking at which States have been instrumental in the development of vaccines.

I posted last week that a mate knows someone who lives in Holland but works in Belgium, and they've been doing the same thing over in Belgium - health workers who are testing positive but not displaying symptoms are being asked to come into work because they're desperately short of numbers over there to cope with this. It could be the same reason why they're doing it in North Dakota and I think I recall reading somewhere that they've recently been recording the highest number of infections across all states in terms of percentage of population.

Edit - there's an article here which explains the reasoning by this move and pretty much squares with what I said above. The situation is clearly very serious in North Dakota: https://www.grandforksherald.com/ne...ounces-COVID-positive-nurses-can-stay-at-work
