Yes, but now it doesn't stop you getting it what's the point (also a second consultant saved her from that medication, fuck the NHS etc).
I'm changing my tact from giving fake names/numbers to track and trace I'm going to start handing out any cunt that fucks me off instead.
The 500 supporter max at football games across Scotland has to be one of the dumbest rules yet. That'll be a packed main stand at Brora Rangers and a load of rammed pubs for the Old Firm next week.
Anything at sporting fixtures is just theatre. Spread doesn't happen outdoors. Sturgeon is an absolute moron and so is her Welsh equivalent.
Because it stops you ending up in hospital with covid pneumonia.
A quite bizarre turn of events in Wales.
"Where do you think you're going sunshine? To WORK you say! We'll see about that....."
We're proper through the looking glass at this point aren't we?
Ok but I've already had it once and didn't end up in hospital so...
Whoever came up with that has obviously never worked in the private sector.
My brother's missus works for the Welsh government so I'm well aware, from her tales, of the calibre of person running things over there. Makes our civil service look like a MENSA gathering.
We are indeed. A combination of weak leadership and SCIENCE nutters with their mental suggestions is giving this thing oxygen it should never have had by this point.
So the entire world has weak leadership or they might have the advantage of more data compared to yevrah.
Although, I did just lol at the WHO saying governments should cancel all Christmas events.
lol
You would do well to remove the subservient shackles you operate under and actually question things now and again - there is no data (other than manufactured SAGE wank) that suggests Omicron is going to cause a Tsunami of hospitalisations and deaths in properly vaccinated, let alone boosted, countries, it just doesn't exist.
ConspiracyKiko grew into a right Flanders.
They have not enough data to say that it won't so it depends on your risk appetite. If the hospitals are overrun, it's pretty hard to turn that around.
What value would the government gain from SAGE modelling a "all is ok" model? That's not their job.
I agree the data is far from complete, but what we do have is all pointing in the direction of things being fine, and thankfully to this point, the government here at least agree with that view - they are ignoring the SCIENCE, thankfully.
What value does anyone gain from modelling something that has no chance of happening? It's absolutely pointless and you said as much yourself the other day.
Did you get the t-shirts made? @Yevrah
We model for all kinds of shit that isn't going to happen. Or, rather, that is hugely unlikely. Hugely unlikely things do happen and governments prepare for them.
(I am aware we probably don't actually have a zombie plan, you just reminded me of that story)

Of course, I'd like to think there are plans in place for when an asteroid eventually comes our way again that don't just involve Bruce Willis and a massive drill, but crucially, those plans stay behind the scenes. In the case of this, this is stuff that SAGE are pulling together in response to something that is happening now, it's being deliberately released to the public, is forming scientific policy and is manifestly wrong.
Remind me manc? A lot of posts in this thread, although surprisingly having just checked, not the most.

lol my friend has it. They were having their whole family round for Christmas as well.
Runny nose?
It's not staying behind the scenes, it's just not more interesting than a passing article. These models are about the here and now which is why they are being reported. I think you should be more pissed off with journalists if anything.
I'd love for the lols to be as great as they would be if hospitalisations don't really move much in the coming fortnight but given how many other countries are shitting themselves over this, one suspects there's something other than some SAGE soft shites behind this.
Journalists have been universally awful throughout this, that much is true, but it's reported on because it's 'leaked' (or if you will, deliberately given) to journalists.
Scotland's 14% positivity rate is a bit daft. Glasgow and Edinburgh must be dragging those right up.
Depends largely on how much you're testing. South Africa's was in the 30s a week or so ago.
The longer this sort of shit goes on, the more one has to wonder. We're behaving like we haven't fully vaccinated 80% of people and boosted another 30m+.

Fuck sake. It was ok to restrict when it was only in the UK but they can fuck off.
When did you start following restrictions?
Is this how we’re moving the goalposts now? That lower “resilience” means lower hospitalisation numbers are actually similar to previous high levels? We’re fucked as a species.
There's still room on the bus to follow some sense on this Kik's. We're a welcoming bunch.
Ooof.
Every country will have the same gloomy modellers advising their over-cautious governments. Restrictions are like a drug to these people, bringing as they do the illusion of control.
Sorry, the cross was perfect.
I said ignore it, but their parents are on the 'vulnerable' side of fat so they won't.
Well deserved tbh.
My mum is being a cunt because all our family on her side are fat alchy cunts as well. They don't want me at a birthday meal next year because I'm a risk to them due to my vaccination status.
I mean my step family that is. Finally bovid working on my favour.
Grotesque from you two.
Beats team yevgic at least.
I need a negative test to see my folks and get into the office so I can't really play fast and loose on that.
My (all triple boosted) family has issued an 'ignore it' policy in case of any positive tests. The way to live, I think.
Oh, hang on. Christmas is Saturday which means the receptionist isn't in. I can walk straight up there.
I'm merely only following the actual science, I wish others would.
I think not testing is the actual way but whatever.
*Unless you’re “the vulnerable side of fat.”
Don't pubs have restrictions?

I'm a twit
He's a German now. It goes with the territory.
Anyone that has been testing themselves during the past week or so clearly has something wrong with them [other than the potential covid].
I've still never taken a test, in the entire pandemic. Lied about taking one about 4-5 times.
