Suggest you reread what he wrote first. Nothing wrong with my comprehension whatsoever

Would you like it spelled out?

"What is indisputable is that many have seized on this to further their own agenda and a significant proportion of these individuals are in favour of the reordering of our economies and societies on environmental or far left grounds."

"The longer they keep us in lockdown the more damage they inflict and the closer they believe they will come to their goal."

OK, dropping sides for a moment, if that's your metric then surely it gets extrapolated out to: No deaths of the rich and famous = No Covid?

Eddie Large copped it from Covid.

He was A list.

Also bobby ball if i remember correctly.

Tim Brooke Taylor.

Indeed there's quite a few which kinda makes my case. Although whether they're "A list" is another matter. Cheers

To be honest I wasn't even thinking about Eric (WORRYING!) Feigl-Ding, I was more thinking of Devi, who is just as batst but with less emojis.

Speaking of Devi, worth checking out Twitter at the moment. Prof Woolhouse, also from the Uni of Edinburgh, has contradicted her assertion that Scotland was COVID free before all the dirty English crossed the border in September.

As you can imagine, she hasn't taken it very well:



Shame I've got a call now, or I'd be on there with some popcorn watching her have a meltdown.

It isn't just Devi who is likely to attack Woolhouse for this. It suits Sturgeon's narrative to blame covid on England. Nevertheless, it is good to see political propaganda being called out.

Not sure if others have seen this Twitter account. COVID one year ago. It looks back on this date a year ago with the announcements etc. that were given at the time. Today is a doozy.

Not sure I want to 'live' that year again.

Of course, but it’s interesting to see what the advice/guidance was being issued and why when we look back you can see why certain mistakes happened.

For example, here’s what PHE told care homes



And then we’ve got the first instance of ‘herd immunity’ popping up

Finally news about Ivermectin coming out into the mainstream. This would have saved thousands of lives and the Government ignored it.

According to this article, the UK were waiting for the US to finish the trials and were then going to pick one that worked.

He was VERY VERY bad. This is why cases started dropping worldwide when he left the White House.

All hail President Biden (if he hasn't gone for a nap yet). He saved teh world from teh orangeman!

Fortunately he's now gone so we don't have to listen to his 'bleach into your arteries' kind of cures or how it's all a Chinese hoax designed to bring America down...which nobody listened to anyway so no biggie.

I started this past year as a bit of a Covid Denier. I kept saying that although many friends were facing financial ruin, I knew no one who had had Covid.

This winter it has got closer and closer. Friends and relatives have caught it, thankfully only one ended up in hospital for a couple of nights.

Now my ex wife has it. She sounds pretty rough and now stuck in the house with troublesome teen boys and the ex boyfriend.

Thing is, I saw her last week when I picked up one son to stay at mine for a couple of nights.

Do I need to isolate?

I've been at work since seeing her briefly.

I still believe the governments reaction to all this has been completely over the top.

The damage done to my children's education, including a daughter at Uni, has be catastrophic.

The reason I saw my ex wife last week......I saw her in hospital after my 15 year old had overdosed and was unresponsive in A&E for 10 hours.

Good chance she caught it at hospital.

Ah, you mean the old treatment from the 1940s they were investigating at the time to see if it could be applied to COVID?

Didn't go anywhere using it intravenously, but similar principles for surfaces have been developed in Israel:

Only issue I saw with Trump's pronouncement was a very clumsy metaphor all the Very Smart People picked up on.

Just watching Sky News - hospital in Warrington, now being put under pressure with normal ‘late’ seasonal infections.
Will we be locking down because of these?

Wife had to take our little one to QMC in Notts today.

Not a single car park space to be had.

Though she doesn't know why because once she finally got in there, she was the only sole in the waiting room and there was a gaggle of doctors and nurses having a a jovial chat at the reception desk.

Not sure what is going on but it wouldn't surprise me now that they're sorta rammed with people who need hospital for things other than covid. There is only so long you can put stuff off. Like my Dad, they'd put his knee work off for all of last year, but now he can barely walk so it needs replacing very soon. They've got him in in April thankfully!

Forget covid for a moment, that's awful news. I hope you manage to get him all the help he needs.

The man was too stupid to understand what he had been briefed on. The result was he regurgitated something he hadn’t listened to properly in a clumsy fashion trying to pass it off as an original thought and succeeded only in highlighting his extremely limited intelligence and vocabulary.

Thanks. Unfortunately thanks to Covid, help is not easy.

Children's mental health institutions are snowed under.

Our eldest has severe problems but the next appointment was like 8 months away. Since then he's turned 18 and he's slipped through the cracks and we are now starting again, as well as paying a fortune for private help.

That's why when I'm working on an opportunity with work and we are discussing complex medical procedures or manufacturing processes, we get an expert rather than the account manager to give the presentation.

Nothing wrong with the message he was giving imo, just the wrong person to deliver it - should have been Birx/Fauci.
