I'm still surprised we're not jacking up the vaccine numbers. All the talk about rushing to the finish line and then toddling along with 400k a day. Maybe we go apeshit once the first jabs are all done?

Arsenal stadium is doing an open event for the next few days trying to give as many the first jab as possible. I imagine there are quite a few examples of trying to ramp up the remaining unvaccinated.
I'm still a few days away from my second shot of az.
Footage of Wayne Lineker on the news, Formentera on the Guardian, erections all-round. Let's see where we are in August, hopefully won't need vaccinations and Europe hasn't crumbled to the Delta tsunami (surely they will, no?).
We'll be on Lambda by then and the whole world will have gone all Half-Life 2.
I eagerly await the BBC articles. "What is a resonance cascade and how did it get here?"
Sydney are at 61 cases a growing. I won't lose any sleep over the eastern suburbs copping harsh lockdown untill it is sorted. Roflmao
2 Canterbury Bulldogs players were exposed and the NSW team might be stuck in Kingscliff for origin.
Banning them from the state is probably Queensland's only chance of drawing out the series any longer.

*NHS Overwhelmed Klaxon*
Who’d have thought that a sustained effort to scare the shit out of people would lead to them being scared about, well…, everything.
I’ve been avoiding the news for a bit, where are we now with operation “let’s drag Coronavirus out for as long as possible for the lols”?
Fingers crossedQuote:

Defo House of Cards stuff.
It's genuinely horrendous. We had to close to new admissions for a large part of today because we're completely full. I've no idea what happens to the ones who turn up during that time.Quote:

What is the reason behind that though? Is it GPs simply refusing to see anyone?
Because 'professionals' like RL were going around telling everyone their kids were going to die of PIMS.Quote:

He was cheating on his wife, with his own staff member, at work, on camera.
Because we weren't being fined for cheating on our wives.Quote:

It's really bad. Our service is not coping. We handed over 12 kids to be seen to the night time, some of whom had been waiting 6-7 hours which is absolutely unheard of. And yes like I said we had to close earlier because we were full. Same happened last weekend when I was on.
Management aren't listening as usual. Until a kid dies because we're being forced to work in such an unsafe way, then they'll all be there pointing fingers and throwing people under the bus. This kind of situation is how Bawa Garba happened.
Sajid Javid looks like a colour-corrected Ray Wilkins.
How is the media meant to take the moral high ground on that sort of thing (and would they even consider it the moral high ground)?Quote:

So no I don't think it's anything to do with it. Idk what your problem is or why you're so desperate to GOTCHA me. Sometimes things are genuinely just shit and this is just shit. Something is going to go badly wrong because the workload is seriously unsafe. I don't blame the parents for coming to hospital because their kid is the most precious thing in their whole world and they are worried (other than the patently ridiculous few who call ambulances for kids who they can then barely get them into because they want to carry on running round the garden).
No that's not what people have been told at all, and it's shameful you try and shirk responsibility now the real problems are kicking in.
111 are a fucking nightmare too, they call an ambulance for kids at the drop of a hat.
They should have smuggled appointment charges through all the other shit when they had the chance.
What? Yes it is. Show me something saying parents should be seriously worryied about their kids having covid.Quote:

In fairness, kids are just pricks sometimes. When my daughter was about 2 she had sickness and diarrhoea for more than a week. Her bits were red raw and she started refusing food and drink.Quote:

This is a well recognised phenomenon and I am the first to reassure parents who think they've "wasted our time".Quote:

And again, none of these parents are worried about covid. They haven't thought to get their kids tested for it and are usually surprised when you even suggest it as a possibilityQuote:

I'm sort of with Magic on this one. 'We' have spent the last 15 months scaring the shit out of people and GP's have shut up shop, so what the fuck were people expecting would happen?
Sydney is up to 110 cases. :lol:

Ahhh shit the Alpha and the delta are both circulating around Brisbane.
