    Genuinely interested about that young lass who has died. I appreciate the media have an agenda with young people and vaccines, but this article is still quite shocking. Just wonder if there is more to it.

    Youngest daughter came up faint positive on a lateral flow yesterday (she's now awaiting a proper test) and mega positive this morning (we have to test daily as someone in her class had it last week - in fact all my school age kids are testing daily at the moment).

    Are you all vaxxed up other than the kids? What's the deal over there, are you free to crack on or do you have to isolate?

    We opened up yesterday. Overnight from complete lockdown, army, barriers and with curfew... To basically everything open. Except dine-in restaurants.

    I think this means the gov realise zero covid is impossible with Delta.

    Yeah, both vaxxed.

    When the PCR comes back positive the kid has to 'isolate' for 10 days but no other members of the household have to unless they develop symptoms or return a positive PCR [I think we have to have 1 PCR at some point but not sure when]. It's only a minor ballache, but could become more annoying if more people come down with it. Other kids will keep having to do LFTs daily as that's part of the school shit at the moment anyway I think.

    A report this week suggested only seven of the 20 Premier League clubs have succeeded in fully vaccinating 50 per cent or more of their squads, with the overall average said to be approximately one-third of all players.
    I know most footballers are pretty thick, but this figure seems alarmingly high. Arrogance, stupidity or a bit of both?

    They're mostly 20-somethings and that age group has a bad take up generally.

    Interesting. I'd assumed that uptake would be higher in the younger (20-30) age group.

    Professional sportsmen have less awareness of the world around them than any other group I have encountered. Live in a complete bubble on every conceivable level.

    Obviously there are exceptions to that, but as a herd they have zero idea what is going on.

    I can see the logic. I guess it's why we have God's, devil's and witchdoctors too. People like to believe someone is in control and that the Village couldn't just get flattened by an earthquake or a tsunami for no reason.

    Purchases of PCR tests in China's Hubei Province surged months before the first official reports of a novel coronavirus case there, according to a report from researchers in the U.S., the U.K. and Australia.

    Orders doubled from universities, jumped fivefold from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and surged tenfold from animal testing bureaus. Purchases from hospitals declined by more than 10%.

    Monthly procurement data shows a spike in orders in May, especially from CDC buyers and the People's Liberation Army.

    "We believe the increased spending in May (2019) suggests this as the earliest start date for possible infection," the report said.

    Purchases rose sharply from July through October as well, in particular from the Wuhan University of Science and Technology. The institution spent 8.92 million yuan on PCR tests in 2019, about eight times its total for the previous year.

    Australia became the surprising focal point of an American anti vaccine mandate protest march for teachers in New York City overnight, with hundreds of demonstrators chanting “Save Australia” and some waving Aussie flags.

    You know what, 12 months I thought the same. But now, after the "investigation" last year, and now this report, I'm not 100% sure. For the record, I'm not a conspiracy theorist at all - but China is a seriously screwed up insular country, and I just wouldn't put it past them that they were developing this, and then it was accidently contracted by lab techs, and spread from there.

    I'm not going to speculate on whether it came from a lab or not (it could have), but I think the fact that Covid was a thing LONG before January 2019 is pretty well established fact by now. And the government cover up appears to have been in full swing long before then too.

    No proof, obvs, but I'd put money on it having done so.

    In fact, let's say you're down to the million pound question on Millionaire, you're left with two options and the computer knows the truth. The options are 'lab' or 'passed on from animals'. Which one do you go for? You have to play as well.

    Transmission from animals has happened exponentially more often than anything escaping from a lab.

    Because the answer has been "it came from animals" almost every other time. Including both previous CoronaViruses (Sars & Mers).

    That's not to say the answer isn't A, but the answer is usually B. So I pick B.

    Weight of credible opinion seems to lean that way, so on a 50/50 choice it's what I'd go with.

    I could easily believe the Chinese were attempting to study this new thing nature had thrown up in the Wuhan lab, but I don't buy it as some sort of biological weapon, or even gene-editing/virus fiddling thing gone wrong, on the balance of probabilities.

    You can pay for day 2 for closer to £40 and can use lateral flow tests in Greece to come back in.

    Lyme disease came from a lab, allegedly. It's an interesting story (if you fancy googling it).

    Ps. Are there any other viruses that affect your taste and smell in the way Kung Flu does?

    The best day 2 price I found for my dad before I lost the will to live browsing that horrific wild west of providers and their dogshit scam websites was £46.

    https://covid19tests.atruchecks.com/

    (Listed as £39 but obvs add on a random charge at the end).

    He needed the purchase code for his passenger locator form but didn't have it checked at the airport. Reckon it's worth skipping.

    I don't understand the travel stuff at all. I'm meant to be going to Spain for work in a couple of weeks. As double-vaxxed I can go out there no problem, but I have to do what to get back in?

    After you arrive in England you must take a COVID-19 test on or before day 2.

    You must book this test before you travel.

    If you will be in England for less than 2 days you still need to book and pay for a day 2 COVID-19 test. You only need to take the test if you are still in England on day 2.
    Right, and what if I don't? Beheaded at the Tower?
