    That's the dream. (Especially now home learning apps are a thing and we don't get proper snow days.)

    13 weeks holiday really isn't enough.

    How much is it reduced? We still have a fuckton of people catching COVID and circa 65% of those in hospital now have been vaccinated.

    I don't think anybody really knows beyond speculation, do they?

    Why are we allowed back into pubs, and schools, and nightclubs and football matches etc.?

    They should make COVID passes strain specific. I got Alpha and Delta, thinking to give Omicron a miss and go back in for Rho in spring. Open to trades.

    Because those things are fun and we have a vaccine that 80% of the population has had.

    There's very clear evidence that three doses of vaccine is massively effective vs omicron compared to two, so I don't think booster jab advocacy is the right target for any ire about what the pols have been up to.

    Are you saying I shouldn't be in favour of taking a jab because it's hasn't been conclusively proven (allegedly) that it helps stop the spread? That would be an odd stance.

    We have a vaccine: things have been allowed to open back up. Kind of my point.

    What are you on about you piece of filth? That hadn't remotely a thing to do with what you were replying to.

    Dangerously thick.

    Edit - I see now what you were poorly trying to do. You're the one that took the dose the hardest. Maybe it's from getting all those digs you deserved.

    At protecting symptomatic disease there is. But here's the head of the Medical Association from South Africa on Omicron:

    The head of the South African Medical Association refreshed her claims that the Omicron variant is 'mild' having spent one month treating patients with it.

    Dr Angelique Coetzee spoke to Tom Swarbrick a fortnight after her initial appearance on LBC where she told him that the West was overreacting to Omicron.

    She echoed her initial claims that Omicron is a relatively "mild" variant of coronavirus, which sees greater transmission yet lower rates of hospitalisation.

    She said that whilst she understands the precautions the UK is taking, "there's really no need" to reenter lockdown over the Omicron variant.

    "Yes, you can have a million cases, you can have even more than that, but the severity of the disease is mild", she said again.

    Not at all, I'm saying the same as Pep in that mandating it for kids or very young adults is wrong.

    Sorry, the Pepe post was just an aside. I'm talking in general - why wouldn't you get a vaccine/booster?

    I'm still trying to figure out how Magic has come to the conclusion that being a pro vaccine teacher would lend itself to wanting to work from home.

    Surely when more people aren’t entitled to a “pass” (both jabs and the booster) than are, they’ll fuck them off?

    The only reason you wouldn't is because you don't need one.

    Nobody would follow it even if it does. I'll have the jab, I'll wear a 'muzzle', whatevs, but I won't be avoiding family and friends again. I imagine most people are the same.

    Any hope of Boris staying in power for much longer rests on him not shutting the country down, so he isn't going to.

    You can't lock down again without furlough etc to go with it, and they aren't going to want that.

    3 omicrons here, which has led to 54 people being put into mandatory isolation [no testing for those suckers].

    Has anyone actually been able to confirm how Omicron compares to the last one and how the vaccine works with it, or does everyone on television love just saying the word Omicron?
    If you were doing a drinking game during the news you’d end up in ICU anyway by the first ad break.

    Not at the moment, work has taken a turn in the last few months that could either end up being brilliant for me (in which case I won't carry on) or bad for me (in which case I may well while looking for something else).

    As I posted above the Sith Africns are saying it's more transmissible but less severe. Not reported here much as it doesn't get needles in arms and good news isn't classed as news these days.

    Something about omicron isn't adding up. The South Africans are saying relax bru it's fine, Sajid Javid is saying it's 200,000 cases a day and 2 day doubling, which means 24 million cases a day in two weeks' time, and over a billion cases a day in just over 3 weeks. Meanwhile our media class seem thirsty as fuck for a lockdown.

    Either we or the South Africans are catastrophically wrong.

    Our approach to this hasn't added up for ages, so I know who I'd back to be closer to being correct, albeit it is South Africa's summer now right?

    We need to follow the science. WFH until winter 2022 at the least and then we can re-evaluate depending on NHS capacity.
