We should never ever give SCIENCE this much power or spotlight again.
They're basically baked into society now too, so I've no idea how you get rid of them or their fear spreading.

They'll write it off as people being stupid, like RL did a few pages ago, and misinterpreting their 'advice'.Quote:

Sadly I was all to well aware of what happens when you give people (any people) power and limelight. They fucking love it and never want that train to stop.
Give your head a wobble ffs. You're talking absolute bollocks.
They're also liars as well.
We've covered this, but I'm back on their website and I'm going to inflict my misery on you all too. From their six point plan (yes, 6) for dealing with the last variant (in May):
https://www.independentsage.org/six-...617-2-variant/
A wave as bad as January with vaccines if it's more transmissible and worse than January if it's even mildly resistant? It's just bare faced lies.Quote:
Accordingly, the SAGE modelling group (SPI-M) updated their projections for the roadmap outlining the opening up of society and the economy. If a new variant that is 30-40% more transmissible than B.1.1.7 becomes dominant in the UK, we could see a wave that is as bad as the January surge – even if vaccines remain as effective against B.1.617.2 as they are against B.1.1.7. If B.1.617.2 is even mildly resistant to the vaccines as well as being more transmissible, proceeding with the roadmap could result in a new wave of infections considerably worse than was seen in January.
I mean I'm not and the evidence of their continued anti-vaxxer wrong-headed proclamations of doom back me up on that. These people are a disgrace to actual science.Quote:

We don't need this spilling over into the TTH Final Meet.
It won't it's my birthday, nothing but peace and love from me. Well, as long as a member of 'indie_SAGE' (have they really spent money on branding that? Rofl, and if you will, copter) doesn't rock up.
Fuck that noise. You've never been happy, Yev. You can't even get the hot tub just right.
Happy birthday Harvey Yevrah.
I think I'm just misunderstood.
Back to Sage, these arse holes are using SCIENCE to inflict sustained misery on people, the antithesis of what they themselves say they're here to do.
And riding on the coat-tails of an originally well meaning movement to push science above nonsense at that.Quote:
We also believe it the responsibility of scientists and those with specialist knowledge to engage with the public and policy makers, in order to ensure that science benefits all of society.
Cheers Kik's.Quote:

EDIT: OH, THEY'RE PLAYING FRIDAY! :youpi:
Why is everyone not wearing a mask in the supermarket always a massive fucking chav.
The new vaccine coverage map on the dashboard is quite interesting.

Plots very well onto the Brexit voting map, as everything does.
I've been in London for a couple of weeks and it's about 50/50, increasing to absolutely nobody giving a shit past 10pm. If I'm going to get it it'll be whilst I'm here, but if I test negative when flying back to Jersey then I think we can go ahead and confirm this as fake.Quote:

There's a lass on my facebook that's panicking over the Pfizer jab. She had her first the other day and she's been complaining of heart palpitations. Her doctor's blamed her thyroid but naturally, a bunch of twitchy housewives on facebook know better.
Had my second AZ snake oil yesterday and so far, other than a bit of drowsiness and pain in the arm, been okay. Last time it hit me the second night so lets see if it does again.
I thought you were getting at something else.Quote:

It certainly makes it easier for everybody to keep a tally of their prejudices.
There is definitely a bit of the standard 'what ya gonna do about it' attitude on show with some of them, like the wankers who start blaring music out of their phone on public transport.Quote:

The insistence on capitalising SCIENCE every time is making you seem more like 'some sort of flat-earther' more than any of your actual opinions, Yev, FYI.
Oh I know.
That's just what they want you to think.
Did you know the clinical guidance (from the manufacturers) says the wait time between the 1st and 2nd jab for the AstraZeneca vaccine should be at least 5 weeks, and only 3 weeks for Pfizer?
But they said 12 weeks initially and have now lowered it to 8, because they didn’t have enough.
Makes you think. WHAT ELSE ARE THEY LYING ABOUT.
The lateral flow tests have been consistently shown as shite but the GOVERNMENT bought shit loads of them. The US aren't bothering with them. https://www.bmj.com/content/373/bmj.n1514
Hahahahahaha
The SCIENCE wankers are still winning.Quote:
The PM says he is hoping England will return to as close to the pre-pandemic status quo as possible on 19 July.
Next week's return to the office is cancelled. 5 people turned up positive. :D
500+ positive tests for the postage stamp that is Durham City this week.
Lockdown in Brisbane extended for 24 hours... I reckon we will end up getting the full 2 weeks as the delta is clearly more contagious.
It has also come out that Scummo has signed off non nationals most who weren't vaccinated to come and go as they please. They make up roughly 20% of all inbound travellers.
Our borders were never closed.
223 cases in NSW and they are saying it will continue to go up.
Lol
Enjoy covid bogans.😎
If Australia is still having lockdowns after we're out, it'll be a pretty good effort on their part.
There's not going to be much 'if' about it. They've pissed a year away doing nothing bar experimenting with the best things to put on people's heads as they move them from one quarantine location to another.
What's the New Zealand vaccination situation?
There's no stopping it once cases are at that level. 223 will be the tip of the iceberg.Quote:

TLDR - Some AZ are made in India and not approved by the EMA. AZ not approved by the FDA so you can't visit the states. Lol.
We're doing something like 10-15x more testing than our EU counterparts lol. Bedwetting Brits.
Lol at you bemoaning bedwetting.
Never have I checked my vaccine card this quickly before. Phew!Quote:

Weren't there reports of the pensioners refusing Pfizer vaccine and saying they'll "wait for the English one" early on? lol.
Just ensure your sixth boosters are also compliant.
