So I'm just waiting on the paperwork for my discharge and thinking about the things I've seen and endured over the past few weeks. Firstly, loss and specifically the death of my mother. It's very

I lost my mum to the virus yesterday. She was 86 and had been in a care home for just coming up to six years suffering from alzheimers. The care home seemed to be keeping the virus at bay up unti

It was a funny absent minded moment because I've got other stuff on, that made me look ignorant, not a mental health breakdown ffs

I didn't say you had a mental breakdown. I was talking about the simple everyday experience of someone just walking into a store and feeling guilty about it, like you are some kind of mass murderer because people judge you, even when you've only forgotten and made a genuine mistake. Just think about that for a minute. I never suggested it was your mental health.

 

In regards to mental health, the fear factor has driven it.

You were quick changing those links! 

 

Interesting he mentions about Liverpool lagging in the vaccine. I haven't had chance to verify it but over the weekend the local news claimed 130k eligible people in Liverpool were yet to be vaccinated, which I thought just can't be right.

What the fuck are you on about you wet wipe? Covid denial? Yep definitely some nutters on these boards.

Feel free to explain how damage limitation and being made to feel guilty for not wearing a mask in a shop belong in the same sentence. Then we can judge who the nutters are.

The map on the government's covid site says Liverpool is at 66.8 and 50.5 percent for adults, which is almost 15 to 20 percentage points behind national average.

Fuck, that's really bad isn't it? What the fuck is wrong with people? 

Must admit I don't know how it's split administratively on the map. When you zoom in, there are even worse areas than Liverpool average. But there is a bit of a correlation with vaccination rates and cases on the national map.

Interesting there seems to be a flattening of the figures over the last week. The Zoe app has flat lined too, although I'm not sure how good that is now. 

It looks like it's plateaued in Scotland, schools broke up a couple of weeks ago so I guess that's helped.

Some strange stuff in here, good grief.

 

If you wear a mask it can still spread and you can catch it.

If you are jabbed it can still spread and you can catch it.

If you are double jabbed it can still spread and you can catch it.

If you are not jabbed it can still spread and you can catch it.

 

So what the fuck are you all flapping about? Its a virus. It moves and spreads. Its either damage limitation or lock down indefinitely.

 

It's a mental health issue now. Fear has gripped people. Psychology has gripped people, I mean read Pidges post above. FFS sake why didnt the staff just lynch him there and then. People have lost their fucking senses.

 

It's a thread about Coronavirus. 

 

If you're approaching this forum void thinking you're going to stumble across good samaritans posting positive news, sharing moments of societal joy, or showcasing their efforts to make their communities a better place, you won't find it here. 

 

Instead, you'll find an anxious bunch of cockwombles sharing their interpretation of data (or other scientific output) and random opinions on how we get out of this utter cuntfuck of a virus. It's a vicious loop of doom, personal stories, and Bjornebye boring the minds out of everyone by asking why SD has lied or ignored him. 

 

Get with the script, you and everyone else is royally fucked. BS can go in the summer.

This will go well...

 

Edit: blimey @Bjornebye repped it. I wonder what @Strontium Dog™ will do then? 

 

There's only one way to find out...

Lafayette General disputes claim that nurse died of COVID-19 (theadvertiser.com)

 

Quote

Guidry worked at Ochsner Lafayette General in the hospital's emergency department. After her death, social media posts began circulating images of tweets that it appears she made criticizing the COVID-19 vaccines.


In a statement Monday, OLG disputed claims on social media that Guidry's death was caused by complications from COVID-19, saying that "the cause of her untimely death is unclear at this time and will be determined by an autopsy, with results not expected for several days."

Yeah, touch hyperbolic there, mate. It was more of a faux pas than feeling judged as a mass murderer. Like a moment in the first act of an episode of curb, I'll over-analyse it with Richard Lewis and then run into the same person after forgetting my mask while out with JB Smoove who is asking me loudly why I don't care about the welfare of others.

 

Christ, there's the breakdown...
