You listed 3 islands that absolutely nobody goes to unless either a Volcano erupts, the Barmy army rock up for a piss up or Harry Mcguire playing out Taken in his head.

The countries similar to us in Europe have been just as bad. My sister lives in Switzerland... like they have been absolutely dreadful. Hospital beds full, no government planning, only have 107'000 doses of vaccine on order and haven't even started vaccinating yet

Stop making excuses for this government. They've presided over a catastrophe, most of it their own making.

Defended by saying they've been crap?

I’ve got a jhs pedal that has a metal zone setting. Who knew I’d been incubating covid for so long.

Got a Behringer Ultra Metal for Xmas.....cheap, plastic Covid but perfectly fine for the home/hobbyist setting.

By giving them equivalency. Has Germany proportionately suffered the same fatality rate as this Banana Republic?

1 in 50 people infected in this country because those maniacs chose to ignore scientific advice to shutdown 3 months ago.

Head brick wall banging...

As you have been told numerous times... Germany hasn't counted their deaths the same as us.

Its not 1 in 50 infected... its an estimate not fact

I read about the Russian flu pandemic in the late 1880's today, which they now think was actually a coronavirus pandemic and this is the 2nd major one.

That passed in 2 years without vaccines

And you think... “well it’s been almost 6 months... might as well”

I could tell you a story of a friend of mine, a one-armed girl, him asking me to 'give him a hand' and her terrible, terrible reaction.

That all came about from him coming back from a tour of Iraq the day or two before and being on heat. But to actual point of my post...
