    The inquiry after all this is going to make the Iraq Inquiry look like a nice little chat.

    I think this is skipping a few pages but I’ll definitely get vaccinated as soon as I possibly can. Can’t see any reason not to.

    I'd like to see ol' Dom Cummings wriggle his way out of THIS jam.

    *Cummings wriggles his way out of the jam easily*

    Ah. Well. Nevertheless,

    No need to wriggle these days. Just ride the storm and another target will be found within days.

    Saw an article on facebook about Piers Morgan ranting against anti-vaxxers on tv this morning, the vast majority of comments slagging him (fair enough) and expressing anti-vax sentiment. Maybe we should release the nasty ones back into the wild as a darwinian check and balance.

    Seeing as they're not usually the ones having (or not having) the vaccine(s) my guess would be not many.

    That would be some survey.

    "Sir, are you opposed to Vaccines on:

    A) safety grounds?
    B) ethical grounds?
    C) because you're a fassy little bitch?
    D) all of the above?"

    In this part of the world anti vaxxers are like the woo woo crystal communities for the most part. Anti vax is just another grift where the idiots are always buying anti vax alternarives eg lifestyle books and alternative therapies etc

    There have been the odd dog brain instagramer who claim they cured there own cancer as well and overlap into the anti vax world to also grift.

    I would say the same here for the most part. As someone else said, they're just an extremely loud minority. That said, it remains more common than I'm comfortable with.

    Nothing shuts me down faster these days than having someone molest me with anti vax propaganda.

    Ive even met a few dog anti vaxxers.

    In fairness to the dogs they probably don't really understand the concept of, or benefits to be derived from a vaccine.

    In other dog news I read the other day (although the thing it came from was quite old) that having a dog is really bad for the environment.

    Living (the way we currently do) is really bad for the environment.

    Fundamental change is needed if we actually want to sort it.

    Whenever anyone mentions 'fundamental change' in an environmental or equality-based context, my mind goes straight to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_genocide

    Random update from Austria: Our current (biweekly?) infection rate is apparently one of the highest in the world - no surprise, judging from the behavior I see in Vienna. A good chunk of people just doesn't care, or finds it hard to properly adjust their behavior.

    We've already been in "soft" lockdown for two weeks (gastronomy shut down except for takeout), and are going into hard lockdown from Tuesday onwards: only "essential" shops stay open, schools are closing as well. The rest of November is going to be pretty grim. They're desperate to get the number of infections down fast because Christmas season is quite big here for the economy, but I'm not sure how realistic it is to aim for a Christmas period that is in any way comparable to normal.

    My dad has got it, but seems to be mostly alright. High fever, bouts of sweating, loss of appetite, but apparently no big respiratory problems, and he's past the worst part of it.

    Good for him investing his money wisely by the way.

    I'm afraid this is why you can't fucking keep harping on about child hunger being that big of a deal Marcus, you disgustingly mediocre piece of shit. Your hideously inflated and unjustified wealth is not mutually exclusive to the problem at hand.

    Indeed, when the first lockdown was imposed in March, you could almost hear a collective sigh of relief– and I don’t think it was entirely to do with the virus itself. For many, this was an extremely welcome chance to stop spending, break bad habits, jam a big stick into the spokes of the capitalist carousel and catch our breath for a moment. We – or at least, some of us – wore sweatpants and baked banana bread. Our children drew pictures and climbed trees. We went out for government-mandated walks passing pizza chains that we weren’t spending Ł32 at and wondered why we ever used to do that. We clapped the NHS and cooked for relatives and noticed the seasons and perhaps even began to imagine a world that was more than a series of cold-blooded calculations. It felt a little like a holiday. A holiday taken in the full knowledge that you left the back door open. But a holiday all the same. It helped that the weather was extremely pleasant.

    Pretty much. Lockdown 1 was pretty good for anyone with a garden, cancelled holidays aside.

    Out to the doorstep full to the gills in the balmy evening sun for a bit of clapping. Fast forward to now and they’d slice a nurses throat for a pint of Stella down the local.
