TBF mate that is the one thing you can be sure of - like masks, if you do not use the app you know it doesn't work.

Is there any correlation at yours between mask cranks and those who have not installed the app?

Other than you of course.

This is so blindingly obvious to anyone with that commodity which is seemingly only available in certain models - common sense. 

 

If this doesn't convert him, nothing will.

Got a call from the hospital about an hour ago telling me that my little Ma has taken a turn for the worse.

The next 24 hours are critical and given my mam's other ailments, infections and underlying health conditions they're not at all hopeful.

 

I feel completely helpless and broken.

Thoughts and prayers are with her and you.

Not really the point I was getting at. My colleagues were instructed not to attend work, but I was not. If there's a risk to staff, surely the employer should step in here, regardless of whether we have installed spyware on our phones.

 

I don't know which of my colleagues are crank enough to think that a piece of cloth can block viruses.

Of course it is. But no system in the world is selfish twat proof. 

 

What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

So sorry, thinking of you.

We had about two thirds of the team missing for 10 days after the tracing app told them to stay at home when one of the team tested positive. Those of us without the app carried on attending work, however. Seems like a bit of a loophole in the whole tracing thing.

Pretty fucking ridiculous that your work doesn’t have a process to let staff know when someone has tested positive so that others can isolate and get tested. 
 

I can only assume you were in charge of coming up with it.

They probably thought it isn't a second wave and is just like flu.

In a certain sporting competition that has been taking place recently, a participant received a Covid positive notification at halftime and had to withdraw and was substituted . I was wondering what happens if all substitutes have been used, and say 2 or 3  positive results are received ?

What is the criteria in for reporting deaths in Sweden? Do people actually have to die of Covid?

I’m sure the lads who’s relatives are in hospital now fighting this will find a lot of comfort in that.

My breathing still hasn’t returned to normal.  Running up the stairs for example leaves me struggling.  I know my heart hate is about 58-60 now which is 5-7 bpm more than normal.

Just had a call from the hospital and it's some good news, my ma is fighting back, she better than yesterday when they said she couldn't eat, drink or speak, she's still confused due to the bowel infection but she's talking in sentences .

All her veins had collapsed but they've finally managed to get a drip into her for the first time in around 5 days and they're giving her intravenous antibiotics trying to fight the pneumonia.

Yesterday they said that my mother's left lung had been completely filled with infection.

The bad news is that those antibiotics will kill the good enzymes in my mam's bowel and enable the CDIF infection to run wild, but given the covid implications it's far more urgent that my mam's lungs are as clear as possible. The CDIF bowel infection will have to be attacked later.

Because of the delirium caused by that CDUF infection my mam has been spitting out the steroidal medication though.

She's also managed to eat half a bowel of porridge.
I was told not to get my hopes up though because it's quite common that when a patient hits rock bottom that they suddenly perk up and improve only to go back downhill again quickly thereafter. All we can do is pray / keep our fingers crossed.

I was also told that many younger people have died with the level of covid infection which my mam currently has and she has confounded doctors thus far, but she is still a long way from being out of the woods.

My little Ma is the only person I've ever known to survive 9 months of living in a hospice. She confounded doctors then and she continues to do so.

Hope she continues improving. Best wishes to you and your mum.

What’s wrong? This is the natural progression of your argument.   The people who are in hospital now are all ill, but COVID has tipped the balance.  But you seem to think that doesn’t count.

No, I think that we should have an accurate measure of how many people are killed by Covid, not how many people who die have had a positive test in the last 30 days. 

 

I can't see why this would upset anybody who has relatives suffering because of Covid. People dying is always shit, I don't think anybody has a preference of whether their relative dies of Covid or something else, they just want to know the truth?

 

In fact, I know someone who recently died from a heart attack, and the family questioned why Covid was on the death certificate when they had never tested positive for Covid. They were told that it would be removed if their post mortem test was negative.
