Some good news in the Telegraph last night,
"Coronavirus cases to slump this winter, say scientists. Covid cases will plummet in November even without Plan B restrictions, modelling seen by the Government suggests."
Strangely, although they've had 16 hours to react to this story, I can find no trace of it on the BBC website, not even on it's specialist Coronavirus page. Nor can I find it on the Grauniad website either, is it that the journos employed by the BBC, and it's propaganda arm the Grauniad, are incompetent, or is this something they'd rather you didn't know ?

If millions of Brits really have been double jabbed this thread should be closed because by now it should be redundant.Originally Posted by sinkov
The jabs obviously don't work so we will just let it run until the great re-setters find something new to cajole and coerce the f*cking eejits with.

Haven’t visited this for some time BT but you really need to chill the —-k out about this now you haven’t been jabbed a lot of us have and are just getting on with it - if you don’t believe they’ll help save your life don’t have it - you keep posting they don’t work but clearly they do as there are less deaths because of the virus , yes people are still catching it but living so that must be a good thing.
An anti vaxer protesting in road after our last home game in front of my car blurting his dribble ( similar to yours ), telling me it would kill me and was useless - asked him if he had a choice - he said yes and he wouldn’t be having it - explained to him he was wasting time protesting as everyone Has a choice - move on now get out of my way, he still continued on and on and on - just can’t see the point you’ve made your choice and me mine.

If this vaccine works why the f*ck do we still have the problem?
I'm a fairly intelligent guy, I have a Science degree (BSc.Hons.) and the law of diminishing returns says with 90% of adults vaccinated the virus must be running out of customers, so why the continuous fret?
The more I think about this the dafter it gets.
My father-in-law has been in hospital in Bolton for five weeks now and we can't visit him because of COVID 19 restrictions.
The nurse across the road tells me she is sitting on her arse with nothing to do and the specially designated COVID ward has zero patients.
Please army88 share the information you have that is being kept from me, because I do not have a f*cking Scooby-Do WTF is going on any more.

Project Fear has been reactivated Alf...

37,000 cases is the headline, what they don't tell you, at least I assume they don't, I won't waste my time reading tripe like that, is that SAGE were forecasting 100,000 cases a day after July 19th. 37,000 cases is way, way below 'the Science' predictions and perfectly manageable.
On Project Fear, it manifested itself again last Tuesday at the live Press Briefing, Jenny Harries stated that there had been '179 deaths reported' that day, slipping in the word reported meant that she was not outright lying, but she omitted to point out that the Tuesday death reported figure is always artificially inflated due to under-reporting at the weekend. The scores are in now, the actual number of deaths last Tuesday was 111, and of course that is not actually people who died from Covid, but who died from any cause whatsoever, but had tested positive in the last 28 days.
Project Fear, you can see through it mile off you'd think, but millions of seemingly intelligent people fall for it non-stop. Can you blame the politicians, Mad Scientists and media for trying it on, it's so fecking easy.

All that panic since last Tuesday, Project Fear in overdrive, hospitals going to be overwhelmed, Christmas cancelled, mandatory mask wearing to be re-introduced, more lockdowns inevitable to save the NHS, as case rates go through the roof, Covid rips through the country and Boris complacently gambles with our lives.
Apocalpse Now !!! Except it wasn't and it isn't. Cases in England since Monday 18th October :-
18-10-2021 48,118
19-10-2021 43,518

Almost halved in a week, will this be on the BBC News tomorrow, of course not, they're still taking the piss.

''If millions of Brits really have been double jabbed this thread should be closed because by now it should be redundant.
..........The jabs obviously don't work "
The measles vaccine lasts forever. The chickenpox vaccine is good for as long as 20 years. The DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis) requires five doses before the age of seven, but then it offers protection for at least 10 years. So why do we assume that we will have to get a shot of the coronavirus vaccine every six months or year?
There are reasons why individuals might need a COVID booster at least every year, but also some reasons why the third shot may, in fact, be our last.
The first reason we might need a fourth (or fifth or sixth) shot is because of the decay of our own antibodies and immune response, explained Dr. Oren Kobiler of Tel Aviv University’s Sackler Faculty of Medicine.
Recent studies have shown that the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine wanes after four to six months, making individuals more prone to infection. A booster dose does exactly what its name implies: It boosts our antibodies, offering greater protection against the virus.
Another reason we might need repeated shots is due to variants, or what is known in scientific terms as “antigenic drift.” If the virus is always changing, then our vaccines will need to be updated to protect against the latest threat.
Coronavirus is an RNA virus, which means it changes. However, its mutation rate is three to four times less compared with the influenza virus, which is good news for vaccine makers. Another thing to consider is how good the immune response really is that is induced by the vaccine.
“If the purpose of a vaccine is to prevent infection, then it needs to lead to the creation of a good memory cell response – B cells and T cells that are cells induced by the vaccine but that stay in our body. If a person becomes infected, these cells are activated and can create a fast and good response against the pathogen, which is why we do not get sick if we are vaccinated.”
The question then is whether or not we get a good memory response with the vaccines that we have.
Recent papers have shown that even as neutralizing antibodies wane, the vaccine still has a good memory response.
So, why take the booster then?
The booster is not only stopping serious disease, it is also aimed at halting infection – a high bar for a vaccine.
“Most vaccines are used to prevent serious infection and not any infection. Here we are asking the vaccine to prevent any and all disease, to prevent the infection from spreading. Most people in the world don’t need the booster shot to prevent them from getting serious disease, but they do need it to prevent them from getting corona and spreading it to other people. Even people with two shots are still very much protected from severe disease because of their memory cells.''
There are also scientists who believe that like previous coronaviruses, the pandemic will eventually become endemic and less severe, and the need to vaccinate will soon become unnecessary.
''So, will we or won’t we need to vaccinate against COVID for life? Only time will tell,”
