Relaxation of Restrictions, Part XII *Read OP For Mod Warnings*

The more information coming out about it would suggest they have.

True, may as well write Easter off already. Probably announce in July they are working on a plan for freedom day which will take 4 weeks to be announced. Then in mid July announce dates for mid October again.

They weren't "taking a dig at somebody for being overweight". They were pointing out that the guy was overweight, as opposed to having a "clean bill of health" as stated in the media.

That's not "fat shaming". It's fact-stating. Fat shaming would be saying that there is anything wrong with him being overweight. That's not the case. Being overweight is just a side-effect of the way he chooses to live his life, and more power to him if that's what he wants. But vastly increased risk of multiple conditions, including severe or fatal Covid-19, is a side-effect as well. The media pretending its not, leading people to believe that healthy 35-year-olds (that is, healthy weight individuals with no known health conditions) are likely to be struck down by Covid because one guy who's double the weight his body is evolved to deal with is having a bad time, is nonsense.

Here are shaming statements: "He's obviously way too fat, should've stopped stuffing his mouth in front of Netflix and gone for a jog every now and then. Serves him right." - "She's obviously an idiot. Should have got vaccinated instead of listening to Facebookpedia antivaxx bullshit. Serves her right."

Non-shaming: "I hope he gets better, but he's not "healthy" like the article says. He's very overweight, which is known to cause severe Covid." - "I hope she gets better, but if she'd been vaccinated there's a good chance she wouldn't be in such dire straits".

Equating even noticing that someone is fat with "fat-shaming" is absolute wokefuckery of the highest order and helping nobody.

Congrats on your bit of cash. I haven't sold my labour for a very long time, but my understanding is that 1200 euro for a day's work is a decent amount.

Yeah maybe such hospital workers should restrict their social movements outside of the hospital. They of all people need to protect the health service.

It's an activity wholly unconnected to your work in the hospital! And if like any other locum work, with quite frequently changing colleagues and locations... not exactly keeping your circle of social contacts to a minimum. In fact you're quite the traveling salesman.

Maybe you should knock it on the head for the sake of the health service.. you wouldn't want to be responsible for bringing it in with you now. Especially given how concerned you are the entire time.

Myopic!? Ha!

Who are you trying to fool, we both know that the big bag of cash overrides any concerns about your ever increasing number of contacts.

No wonder most outbreaks are in hospitals when the likes of yourself do tours at the weekend and then rock up to work on a Monday morning.

He looks dreadful alright. An unhealthy overweight look about him. Dreadful public “health” rep. Most of the ISAG Nphet cult could either pass as half dead looking Dracula doubles or pre weight watchers pop outs

Obviously you're not down the pub. Which I think is what you're trying to reduce it to. But you've extended your range of contacts far beyond what would be expected for your role in the hospital. You know, exposing yourself to the wider community in your "community pharmacy". And then toddling back into work with your heavy pockets.

Risky behaviour for someone so righteously indignant about others.

But at least you trousered some coin eh!

As said a few times now. New guidance on the gov website. You don’t have to test to return now, just isolate at home.

The link to the information has been posted a few times now. Have a look back and it’s all on the gov website.

Yup, just checked, seems an odd way to do things, but fair enough, happy to self lockdown for the days after I return
