Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Schools will close early for Christmas I reckon..

Boris saves Christmas.

They'll be closed in about two weeks maximum.

This lot stagger from one plan to the next, governed only by how much time they can get away with in order to stuff profits into the pockets of their corporate clients who own them.

Imagine having voted for this scum and then complained about what the scum are doing like I saw somebody else do in this thread earlier on.

I don't think they know what shame is Dave, you cant do, you cant vote for such people and then have any normal human emotions.

That's appalling. Anyone who voted for that lot have absolutely no right to a complaint.

Have to laugh at all the im alright jack types you see on social media tonight rejoicing that we are locked down again.

Im not against it like but those celebrating a lockdown whilst people lose livelihoods, suffering from mental health/anxiety are no better than those calling it a scamdemic etc. whilst people are losing loved ones to the virus.

Both types utter pricks imo

Ah so is it the flu again?

Amazing isn't it.

Every government in the world is allowing its economy to tank for a cold.

Also many people who report being ill with flu just have a head cold etc. The amount of people over the years I've heard yap on soldiering being so hard with the flu is nonsense. Had flu once about 20 years it knocks you flat.

Actually, spoke to someone on Thursday over the phone who subsequently went on to be COVID positive on Friday, they sounded awful, short of breath coughing, lad in his early 30s body builder type!

A lockdown was needed,the problem is we will come out of it and face the same problems again,this shower wont use that time to any purpose except looking for ways to line certain peoples pockets

A vaccine is the best hope we have of breaking the lockdown and release cycles. If any of those currently in phase 3 make it through it could be a game changer even if the immunity is well below total.

The young fit and healthy girl in my missus work is now in her 7th or 8th week off work with it.

The sooner the myth that it ONLY affects the old and unhealthy is busted the better things will get.

Exactly and this is sort of the issue with lockdowns. This government are just kicking the can down the road. The amount of money they have wasted on test and trace, PPE contracts etc is a joke. Let's not forget the reason the NHS is so stretched is down to them too.

Sadly this is only the start. Couple ongoing covid with Brexit and we are going to be in a mess for a long long time

Dont worry mate if you live in a village and own a pub you are safe from the plebs in the cities...

Seeing as its lockdown again it would be a good time to send all them virus spreading students back to there little villages and save us plebs. If they're quick they may even get some of that free beer.

But it’s still the rule whether you choose to follow or not.

However you responding like that highlights why we’re heading into another lockdown.

No this is a serious question.

How on earth do you socially distance from your own family in your own home?

Or better yet.

How do I sit in the same room as my kids AND my wife as we can't all socially distance without picking a corner and standing in it .

How do you tell young kids to stay away from everyone else in the household .

Mate you are talking bollocks as usual. And that is something if I have to point that out.

 

[jinkyali]

Tell you what this pandemic is teaching me.

How pathetic some of my friends can be.

Friends wife has received a text to tell her to isolate.
He's therefore deleted the App in case he gets the same text.
He also says he will go to work even if his missus tested positive.

How do you even deal with that?

Maybe, just maybe, don’t have so many people inside your house that you struggle to stay a metre apart from them...

I’ll remember this next time you whinge about tighter restrictions being put in place though. Hypocrite.
