Re: The Covid19 thread
It is a difficult conundrum to vaccinate or not. I am due to have my booster tomorrow but I do have concerns.
BoJo and his cronies are pushing it. That in itself is a big concern - he knows economically we are on a sticky wicket hence the reluctance to accept that another lockdown may be necessary. I trust not one word that he utters. Another is that Pfizer are an American company who are out to line their own pockets and may have down played the side effects of their vaccine (inflammation of the heart e.t.c) However I want to go to the pub and go to music venues and feel relatively comfortable. I am not talking over crowded venues here -that is like having a death wish! Therefore I will have it done with some trepidation |

Re: The Covid19 thread
2 covid vaccinations, one booster jab, one flu jab and im off work with a hacking cough (normal for this time of year), slight fever and sniffles - it's a cold (Admittedly the green gunk i was bringing up was bad but my standby boxes of antibiotics and steroids have brought me back to 'it's a cold' status rather than 'it's pneumonia welcome to hospital')
3 negative LFT tests but noooooooo i still have to have a PCR test done before i'm allowed near work again. |

Re: The Covid19 thread
Wasn't the new covid variant, "Omicron", in Doctor Who?
 The name certainly sounds more scary than "Delta"... It also generated, for the first time, a sensible comment from the Health minister: "We need to act quickly". It's only taken 2 years but the government's finally got the message, hurrah!

Re: The Covid19 thread
Seems the WHO have skipped from Nu to Omicron, missing out Xi - best not to upset Chinese...

Re: The Covid19 thread
Who's ready for a Xmas lockdown
 And Omicron is an anagram of . . . . our PM Prime Minister confirms new, temporary measures to respond to emergence of UK cases of the Omicron variant All international arrivals to take a Day 2 PCR test and self-isolate until they receive a negative test Face coverings to be made compulsory in shops and public transport Measures are precautionary, and will be reviewed in three weeks
