Personally I’m 100% in favour of ads like that.

A considerable minority of the public have been nobheads throughout this pandemic.

The sacrifices I’ve made over the past 10 months don’t feel worthless after looking at those images, they simply reaffirm the importance.
Yeah I agree re the importance of the sacrifices made, didn’t mean for that to sound like I wasn’t arsed anymore certainly not the case haha!

Just the implications that it’s the public’s fault we have the worst death rate in Europe etc just feel like it’s a convenient way of an incompetent government to shift the blame is basically what I was trying to say if you get me.
 
Let's take the last couple of days. Yesterday the WHO tells us all that PCR tests massively overstate positives and they tell health authorities to adopt more rigorous testing methods. No media reaction. Today SAGE come up with a suggestion that a COVID variant might produce a higher mortality rate. Media reaction? We're doomed.

The media have been absolute cretins throughout this pandemic......

The gov and scientists are using the media also.

Everyone in London jibbed social distancing off = new variant
Vaccine rollout is going well... so we can talk about opening up? = new variant is more deadly

Just reading about the new evidence for the more lethal variant.. it was sampled on 8% of deaths... 8%

It is better to be safe than sorry with the opening up.

I’m happy to wait longer but when we do open up I just can’t see why there shouldn’t be ways to have events on etc, once the vaccine is rolled out.

I know some people want to just be able to go to the pub or for a coffee and that’s fine. But bloody hell I miss gigs or going the match. Why the hell do we have to wait another year or whatever once the vaccine is out there enough come summer? Honestly, if we don’t get back to it then, we genuinely might as well never bother
 
You clearly didnt watch the briefing.

Or if you did, you made a cuppa when that was explained. By a scientist.
Point is, if they didn't want to keep us locked down for longer than previously indicated then this issue of (unproven) marginally higher death rates would likely not have been raised at this time. It helps though to keep everyone receptive to the panicdemic message.

Absolutely
 
My tit next door has today driven to Southend to pick up his son for the weekend and driven him back to Southampton.
This is deffo against the rules right ?
In certain circles this behaviour is viewed as showing responsibility and integrity.

The prime minister has said his chief aide Dominic Cummings acted 'responsibly, legally and with integrity' when he decided to travel to Durham with his wife and son after his wife contracted Covid-19.

Can't recall such disgraceful posters over any other virus or disease. They are basically designed (doubtless on the advice of the Human Psychology experts Boris hired) to turn people against each other in order to ensure the population doesn't revolt en masse. Unbelievably we are being told that breathing is dangerous. That breathing will kill large numbers of people. What all this type of stuff is doing to the young kids heaven knows. Saw a 7 or 8 year old turn and cry to her mother telling her to do something because a man in the shop wasn't wearing a mask.

My neighbour is so kin stupid, he probably would genuinely go for a drive to test his eyesight.
