Incredible.
Incredible.
I'm starting to see why Sky Sports fucked him off.
I'd like to see Niko explain that one.
Sadly he seems to be a bit of a muppet on quite a few fronts.
He has completely lost the plot. That's one of a few brain dead tweets in the last year.
He needs someone to manage his social media for him.
Macron is getting the Oxford jab
How quasi ineffective of him.
I think it's more he's just a fucking idiot, but the social media does put a lens on it.
You'd think Jeff, Merse, Kammy or one of the others would have tapped him on the shoulder by now and said actually, Tiss, stfu.
We probably all have idiotic periods, one can be snapped out of it with sound advice.
Spain counting 100+ year olds as two deaths; one for 100 then another for the increment.
There's an outside chance that he's just got an eye on the David Icke gravy train. It's probably more bearable than pretending Paul Merson has made a point worth responding to every weekend.
Another person who should know better spouting absolute crap. Do they need the money, or something?Opening up foreign travel in the summer will increase the spread of coronavirus, Peter Openshaw, professor of experimental medicine at Imperial College London, has warned.
“We should have learned from what happened last year,” he tells BBC's The World at One. "There was a lot of importation of new cases from Greece, from Croatia, from Spain – those were major contributors to the cases that were seen in the UK at the end of last summer”.
“I’m afraid we’re going to see the same again, because the virus is by no means defeated... These will inevitably come back to our shores unless we can get high vaccination rates throughout Europe, and in every holiday destination”.
Prof Openshaw, who advises the government on respiratory viruses, also says the UK should “brace ourselves” for “a whole flood of reports” on blood clotting “because doctors will be thinking about it”.
“There is still some concern over this very rare complication... that needs to be looked into further,” he tells Victoria Derbyshire, but adds it remains “much, much safer to have the vaccine than to catch Covid”.
The decision by the French Health Ministry not to use the AstraZeneca vaccine in the population under 55 will cost lives, he says.
"It will undermine the message that needs to get out about the safety of these vaccines,” he says.
He's not wrong, to be fair.
I don't see the issue either. Countries that still have high cases will be an import risk if we have high numbers of tourists visiting and returning to the UK.
Covid isn't going anywhere. We have to learn to live with it and I want to start my learning process at an airport bar.
Sigh.
We have, we've learnt how to vaccinate against this thing.We should have learned from what happened last year
When we didn't have a vaccine.There was a lot of importation of new cases from Greece, from Croatia, from Spain – those were major contributors to the cases that were seen in the UK at the end of last summer
Um, see above. Unless you're implying the vaccines don't work...I’m afraid we’re going to see the same again
Assuming you understand what defeated means, it's never going to be.because the virus is by no means defeated.
Well yes, but we do have a high vaccination rate here.These will inevitably come back to our shores unless we can get high vaccination rates throughout Europe, and in every holiday destination
Brace ourselves for what? Why are you giving oxygen to this nonsense?“brace ourselves” for “a whole flood of reports” on blood clotting “because doctors will be thinking about it”.
What concern? Were the MHRA lying when they said there have been no more instances of blood clots than you'd expect to find in the population anyway? Have you run mad?There is still some concern over this very rare complication... that needs to be looked into further
Well I thought it was, but now you've given credence to the blood clot theory I'm not so sure.“much, much safer to have the vaccine than to catch Covid”.
Here here. Anyone propagating the concerns that the vaccines might give you a blood clot is acting really irresponsibly. Oh.The decision by the French Health Ministry not to use the AstraZeneca vaccine in the population under 55 will cost lives, he says.
"It will undermine the message that needs to get out about the safety of these vaccines,” he says.
Wait, the French now aren't giving it to the Under 55's? Weren't they refusing to give it to the over 65's a couple of weeks ago?
He sounds like a twat. The clot risk is extremely rare, so why would we have a ‘flood’ of reports? And even if we did, who cares? You can’t definitively link it to the vaccine and the benefits of the fucking thing far out weight a one-in-a-million risk of a clot. There’s more chance of me being killed in a car crash on the way to the vaccine centre. Complete drivel.
And lol at people still shitting themselves about cases. The most vulnerable are vaccinated. We may see rises in cases but who gives a fuck? It’s hospitalisations and deaths and we should never see elevated levels of those again.
Holidays in France.
Is anyone worried about unknown long term effects of the vaccine?
And does anyone have an informed balanced article on this?
Go and check on mumsnet
The only stuff I can find are historical examples of short-term fuck-ups like dodgy batches. Stuff that triggers within six weeks.
There are serious third wave issues now in the land of cheese and also Italy and Germany, while we've probably escaped that (as long as we don't do anything reckless) via critical mass of vaccination. Up at 35k cases a day in France and 25k in Italy.
Well I can't say these replies weren't expected
But, thanks Shinners. That's what I've seen as well. I know other drugs have had bad long term effects, but vaccines seem to be historically ok save for batch f ups.
This person really doesn't want me to get the vaccine. Says I'm 37 and have a minimal risk to Covid, but apparently the unknown long term effect of the vaccine is enough a concern to not take it. I don't agree, but want a report to back me up.
Even historically, the stuff that happened within six weeks of a vaccine had very long odds. 1 million to one odds of the Polio vaccine giving you Polio. Or a flu vaccine giving you narcolepsy.
Does that person also want you to drive off a bridge, or walk on stilts along a train track? Genuinely similar level of discussion.
The best rebuttal would be "It's absolutely none of your business". There is no arguing with a conspiritard. You could have a report guaranteeing that all vaccines are 100% safe, signed and agreed by every scientist on earth and these people would shrug it off and double down on their position.
It's his wife though, isn't it?
Outside chance of a mother but doubtful.
Pics if so. To both.
Niko and Magic are annoyingly close to the mark.
Nevermind, serve me right for raising the issue with strangers on a forum.
Is it your sexy mother in law again?
Just take the vaccine Quincy. I don’t know how many more times you need to come on here asking the same question and getting the same answer before you get the message.
Don't take it.

That’s all “the research” you need.
I genuinely fear for your mental health.
If that distracts you, please continue.
Distracts me from what?
Rowing.
