Coronavirus Pandemic Information- Local and Worldwide

Covid certs are only required to get into pubs, restaurants, cinemas and nursing homes afaik, it doesn’t sound right that DKIT had the right to refuse entry to an open night.

The new variant is twice as transmissable as delta so we'll have to be more careful

Some Previous variants of concern have come to nothing so hopefully this one will be the same.

I read where it already accounts for 90% of infections in the area where it was discovered which would be worrying. Having already spread to a number of countries including Belgium.

You better put that mask back on so !!!!!!!

seeiously tho I’m no Covid freak nor someone who thinks about it very often but wearing a mask ,sanitising hands etc is just something I do now and will continue to do so ….got vaccinated recently due to certain circumstances and the fact u can’t go too many places without the cert ….I still believe masks sanitising etc gives me better protection against getting it …..but in likelihood I do get it vacine will hopefully stop me getting v sick or ending up in hospital ….

im back going out for something to eat ,a pint ,going for a coffee etc ,a lad has to live too ,way too many are living in fear of this ,our shambles of a govt ,nephet and the media have the shite frightened out of the country .tv ,radio ,internet it’s constant Covid depression …be great have a blanket ban on anything Covid related for a bit

By the time they actually reformulate the vaccine it will be too late. 100 days to start producing it, then the backlog of actually getting it out... we'll be on to a new variant by then and start the process all over again, while presumably living under more restrictions being told just another few weeks and we'll be on top of it and heading back to normality...

There is still no logical way out of the hysteria that we have been trapped in if we are to be consistent with the messaging put out by the experts in that time.

The only way is to grow a pair of balls and get on with life but so many people are so mentally scarred, they will need serious therapy for them to ever get them back to normality.

It's simply not possible to get on top of this.

The harder you push against it, the more instability is created.

Balance is what's needed and that isn't achieved by heavy restrictions, high vaccine coverage and use of antibody treatments.

Allowing broad based immunity and accepting that a small minority will die is (and has always been) the best way forward.

We have done more harm than good over the past two years, the worst is still ahead of us...

Because it ticks a box.

There never was any other basis to justify it and plenty of perfectly valid reasons not to vaccinate the non vulnerable.

few reasons.

it reduces the circulation and lessens the chances of it being carried to a vulnerable person

even young people can be badly affected

every infection is a chance for a serious mutation

Incubated in ICU (Incubator)

I wouldn't mind Covid patients coming from nursing homes, It's often said that Pnuemonia is an old persons friend, ie that it speeds up the end, so maybe Covid is similar

These new rules are going to make a trip to Anfield a little expensive. Should have met up the other weekend
