    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?).

    Banning them from the state is probably Queensland's only chance of drawing out the series any longer.

    Also the number of people who phone a fucking ambulance because their two and a half year old who is literally running around and causing a riot has a bit of a temperature is beyond belief.

    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.

    Why is the Hancock thing being framed by the press about 'Breaking Social Distancing Guidelines'

    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.

    The normal cough/cold viruses are doing the rounds with a vengeance because they haven't had chance to be going round during lockdown. I wonder if a lot of these kids have never had many fevers because of lockdown so now they're getting them for the first time parents aren't used to it and are freaking out.
    Yes there's a lot of GPs not seeing people, or just fobbing people off/giving antibiotics for whatever over the phone.

    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.

    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)?

    Because he was the Head of the NHS and has spent the last year and a half saying stuff like this:

    Nobody cares about any of it really, surely? The bloke is just an absolute idiot that needed rid of however possible.

    Genuinely baffling how many stars must have to align for a cretin of that magnitude to end up "in charge" of the National Health Service during a fucking pandemic.

    All people have been told throughout all of this is that kids don't particularly get sick with covid. I doubt you've even heard of PIMSTS other than from my posts in this thread. None of these parents think their kids have covid, 99% of them haven't even thought to get them tested.

    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).

    What? Yes it is. Show me something saying parents should be seriously worryied about their kids having covid.

    I also have exactly as much control over public health messaging or what the chair of some medical council says as you do.

    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.

    We phoned 111 and headed off down the hospital, where - because it was new and novel - she started running around as if she was absolutely fine.

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

    But you see plenty who tell you the kid is literally fine, playing a their normal self but they had a temperature of 38.2 so they phoned an ambulance.

    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 possibility

    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?

    Disgraceful. Most boomers refuse to get AZ after the media smear campaign.

    7,326,320 out of 25.3 million

    COVID-19 vaccine doses have been given to Australians



    Qld 515,991 out of 5 million.
