More covid

[McAhuna]

I know where my money would go!

Outbidding a local family for a property in the mining village where their families have lived for generations. Then renting it out at a fat profit, while sitting around on your arse preaching socialist values?
Did I guess correctly!?

As selfish as loading the next generation with hundreds of billions of debt, seeing thousands of businesses close down and children's education suffering.
I still don't understand the criticism of those questioning a decision taken six years ago. It's a different experience being confined to a large house in the country to being stuck in a small flat in a city.

Taking such decisions was never a lightly considered matter. It’s necessary though to sometimes have to make a choice between two awful options and decide which is worse.

You didn’t have to do that. All you have to do is theorise and pontificate about it.

I can totally understand the decision taken. If the worst case scenario threatened the total collapse of society there was no way that could have been risked, whatever the other costs involved. Making sure there were future generations coming before any need to consider their economic futures.

Why do I criticise those questioning the decision? Because, when we have set up a comprehensive enquiry, with access to all the data and reports from every genuine expert, it’s dumb for amateurs to question things they are not equipped to question.

We must wait. Just be patient.

It's a common theme - the Covidiots have somehow convinced themselves that only they have a right to voice an opinion on this subject, because their suffering was greater or something.

You would think that, after getting it demonstrably wrong time and time again, they would STFU out of sheer embarrassment, maybe even apologise. But No.

I think it goes hand in hand with the totalitarian mindset. The same people who gleefully wanted to force medical interventions on others and wanted them to be forcefully confined to their homes now want to stop everyone else from even discussing it.
But we see them. We see who they really are.

And we see it as Darwinism in action.

Progressives are proof that Darwinism was defeated.

With my ego?

All the time.

Wrong yet again

Despite being told we were all going to die of COVID if we don't get jabbed, it looks like we are all still here 😄

Go on Dan, tell us what a woman is....

If you can get over that one, we might ask you for medical advice

Not questioning anything governments tell people is the way totalitarian states operate and why should your opinion be any less "amateur" than anyone else's? Particularly when it's expressed as fact.
Yes, let's be patient then when the results of the enquiry are known you can dismiss any findings with which you don't agree.

We all know any UK government enquiry will be a whitewash.
Perhaps some politically motivated criticism of Boris for partying in the garden, that will be it.

How is their promised rape gang enquiry going?

He's a qualified slum landlord, I'll have you know.

We didn’t know that until later in the pandemic. Do you seriously think when we didn’t know we should just have ignored the risk anyway?


Mask wearing in work places was never made mandatory, just recommended. So I bet you were popular. They were elsewhere though. In England, face masks were first made legally mandatory on public transport on June 15, 2020, and in shops and most indoor public spaces starting July 24, 2020. After mandates were initially lifted in July 2021, they briefly returned between November 30, 2021, and January 27, 2022, to combat the Omicron variant before ending permanently for the general public. Did you comply in public places?

Have you stopped to consider that, at least partly, that was because we socially distanced and wore masks. Alongside discovering the virus wasn’t as deadly as was initially feared, for most people. Maybe if there were masks, people socially distanced and we had the NHS, we would have survived the plague better!

Things were tried. Things worked. Some didn’t. We learned on the hoof. Not during lengthy field trials.

The NHS, where my wife works, were magnificent during Covid. Putting themselves at risk and under great strain in the service of everyone. Including you.

We knew very early on that this was mainly affecting old people. So very early on we could have had children back in school and out playing. 3 weeks to flatten the curve. Lol

Off course I NEVER wore a mask in public places. What a very silly question. In public it was recommended and never a law. Many people had medical conditions so they couldn't wear them anyway. You never had to say you were exempt, as that would be an admission of a private medical condition. You could just say I choose not to wear one. As far as I know, every covid punishment challenged has been overturned as it was unlawful.

Masks didn't work they only made the wearer sick. Breathing in their own germs and carbon dioxide. Fiddling around with them all the time. The masks easily let through "virus particles " the equivalent of throwing a bucket of water through a chain link fence.

200 people at my work. No masks at the so called height of it. Social distancing paid lip service. No one got ill. I've already told you this but you bang on about social distancing, masks and saving lives.

Answer me this please. What is the point of the 2 meter rule for an airborne disease. Surely by that logic none of us would have been able to occupy the space someone else had recently been; but we did all the time breathing the same air.

The government put out on a gov. link March 2020 that "covid 19: was a member of the coronavirus illnesses. That it was similar to the flu and not deadly to most. So we knew very early.

The great Dr Vernon Coleman used to keep that link on his website, it might still be there.

The NHS were overwhelmed in some places probably because healthy staff were being sent home with false positives from the pcr test.

Every winter the NHS is overwhelmed from flu and respiratory issues. This time they had far fewer staff because of the testing. The same happened at my work.

The NHS didn't provide me with any service, (of which I pay for through my taxes and your wife gets paid to do a job) I never used them through the debacle.

Edit.

We didn't need to learn on the hoof. This was shown and admitted to be a coronavirus, not a deadly disease to healthy people. Certainly not children and people probably under 50 at least.

We already knew about sars cov 1. That's how we got to sar cov 2. Are you following me? So why unprecedented lockdown of everyone for a virus which they already knew about.

Not forgetting the Eat out to Help out scheme where germs magically knew to avoid everyone when they were sitting down but not standing up.

Brilliantly put. Wish I'd have included that in my response. Lol

These are just a few, loads more quotes from many other people.

I happen to have a little inside knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry. I also know our cornish landlord, worked for Bayer.

No it’s not! Totalitarian states punish any that challenge the party line. We don’t. People like me just ridicule those who think they know better before enquiries are completed.

I didn’t say my opinion wasn’t amateur! It is. On the subject of Covid itself. I though trust those who are genuine experts and am willing to await enquiry conclusions before coming to a view.

It’s very unlikely that I will find anything in the enquiry report to disagree with. Question degrees of emphasis perhaps and research the reasoning but I will default to the experts and their superior knowledge.
