Thanks for this excellent phrase. I am trying to find a way to change my previous opinion that the doubled jabbed and boosted population should be prioritised over those who do not want to get vaccinated or wear masks.
I know you took exception to my thoughts on the matter and I have asked myself the following question. Does an unvaccinated person give off a higher virus load than someone who has been double vaccinated and boosted. It seems that if the risk of infection is always for the unvaccinated then why do we need vaccine passports?
I always thought it came from an episode of happy days when it was running out of storylines for an ageing Fonzie and the scriptwriters wrote a scene where he jumped over a shark on water skis ....ridiculous....hence the phrase "jumping the shark"

We don't need vaccine passports....she wants them.....they have admitted they serve no useful purpose for controlling any virus.....all about controlling people.

You are very polite bcram.....I didn't take exception.....I boiled over like a pan o tatties on full power....I was raging that someone like yourself could think that it was acceptable for Govts to do that.......I think public opinion has changed significantly since then but not enough to stop them thinking about imposing checks in pubs and other smaller venues......I find it terrifying.

If you remember I said I'd use you as a barometer of public opinion, I'm delighted that your opinion appears to be shifting.
