There are no flu deaths this winter because nobody is mixing. Everything is closed apart from supermarkets and small corner shops.
Over 15 years ago friends on Islay who has previously lived near Glasgow returned home from a shopping trip to Glasgow with a heavy cold.
They had to attend their GP on Islay who informed them that thanks to living on Islay for several years they had lost their immunity to colds and flu in crowded places such as shopping centres.

Yes, herd immunity seems to be a fact. How to achieve it seems to be based on vaccinations and I think much more effective treatments for those who actually catch covid. I wonder how much money is being invested in finding treatments?

Starting to sound like islay no longer wants to be a member of the Dee-Mad Branch Covidians there is also the lack of international travel bringing the flu to the UK.

I am just trying to broaden your knowledge by quoting facts that happened in other parts of Scotland over 15 years ago.
A similar thing happened to me.
I returned home to Islay with a throat infection after visiting my father in Dundee and attending a Dundee home game at Dens.
I suggested to my GP that I might have got my throat infection at Dens Park as a result of shouting and cheering when we scored a goal.
He suggested that in future I should not shout so much at the football.
Later the problem was solved. Neil McCann was appointed manager of Dundee FC and his style of play was so boring that there was nothing to shout about and I was no longer hoarse at the end of the game.

Islay, this is a deliberate attempt at humour! Well done.
