Seven Covid deaths

[BCram]

Yeah but Omicron, lethal tsunami washing over the country etc.

That's why there is so much pressure on Boris. Suppose he holds out and the numbers start dropping because Omicron is not so deadly. What are the medics and statistical experts going to say then?
I think it is worthwhile concentrating on the vaccination process and trying to ensure that as many people can get vaccinated. By pushing this agenda I think the authorities are actually doing the right thing.
Suppose he backs down and lockdown is applied. What will that do to the vaccination numbers?Imagine no vaccinations because everyone has to lockdown.

Less than 200 in hospital with it, and around 40% were in hospital when they caught it.

I'd say my front step is more dangerous to me than Omicron

They will just tell more lies, same as usual ....and lockdown is being applied by stealth

That'll be down to the cold weather icing up the step - I guess we'll just need to learn to live with icy doorsteps. Oh, wait a minute.

Ferguson was predicting 5000 deaths a week by January with no lockdown

We are averaging less than 3 a week

And yet people and Govts still believe ..well Govts dont really .... they believe in the control.

More people will attend hospital because of icy door steps and garden paths this winter than will with Covid I reckon. Just make sure you don't become one of those statistics.

Hey, the social control thing was mine - and to think certain people thought I was stupid for mentioning it

[BCram]

Think Boris is winning. Some very weak comments from scientists trying to explain why deaths are not piling up, yet. Obvious answer is Omicron isn't as deadly for vaccinated people. Maybe things are turning your way, Deeranged and Rross?

I know but that's a badge of honour, not many folk change my mind.

I didn't think this country could fall to authoritarian corrupt people, I thought Scots were too smart for that.

I first realised this wasn't as dangerous as they were making out May 2020, Mr Hitchens was talking about the direction of travel from the very early days re freedom and liberty and his arguments got ever more compelling, you were on about social experiments....and then the lies, jerrymandering of numbers, continual moving of goalposts.....I went from slightly scared of COVID, to wait a minute, to astonishment, to now terrified of where this country is at.

Now there's a bit of hope that most people are beginning to at least question.....I fear the change to how we are governed is irreversible.

Sturgeon is completely out of control, Johnson has no control.

Whitty blaming the 6 million waiting list of NHS patients on......wait for it.....not locking down harder and earlier.......err like Belgium, Italy, Germany, France.

No Chris there's 6 million on waiting lists because of you and the rest of the control freaks closed the NHS and turned it into the national COVID service.

They are now rewriting the last 21 months.
