    534 deaths reported today ‘with Covid’. Does anyone care anymore?

    It’s the same arrogance that saw our scientists scorning things like mask wearing early in the pandemic and not copying the actions of south east Asian countries who have far more recent experience of epidemics. Our scientist elites simply don’t trust the data unless it is their own. They are...

    Er…….Omicron, whilst incredibly transmissible, does not kill more people than the common Flu (+ pneumonia of course). Deadly Delta is now losing the battle of the variants because Omicron is getting to it’s target hosts first.

    44 dead in Britain from Covid in today’s figures. Tragic, but……. I know’s it’s Monday but it does seem that Omicron is chasing Delta out of this Country. Just like in South Africa, our death rate SEEMS to be in terminal decline with this new strain. Only net +14 hospitalisations too.

    Meanwhile in Israel, Natalia Bennett admits Omicron has passed through the Iron Shield. "Three weeks ago, I warned the citizens of Israel that a new wave was coming, the Omicron wave. One day later, the Corona Cabinet convened and we decided - the first in the world - to bar foreign nationals...

    Vile f***ers. It’s a shame Johnson is a profound libertarian and doesn’t have the balls to legislate against these c***s. Lock em down over Christmas I say! Why? That will then give Police the power to break up their protests and arrest them.

    Yes. 7 day death rate down 5%. Not a popular view but I hope the majority of those 78k infections are Omicron.

    My word. 78,610 UK Covid cases reported today. That’s scary.

    Expected Government Headline: Omicron hospitalisations have risen by 40%, get your booster as soon as you can. Fact-check: Omicron hospitalisations have risen from 10 to 14 over the last few days. Yes - we need to wait a few weeks to get more data but at circa 200k infections per day...

    We’re clearly being gaslit on Omicron by the government and media. This is what MPs have been told about Omicron from Dr Angelique Coetzee, chair of the South African Medical Association: "But the majority of patients, within five days after we have seen them, are healthy. "We haven't so far...

    Just 11 deaths reported from South Africa yesterday. A huge spike in deaths should be accompanying their huge spike in the infections; it’s just not currently. It might be my dodgy maths but South Africa appear to have just had their lowest 7 day death average since the pandemic began. Let’s...

    Last week, Johnson said the following: “….a wave of Omicron through a population that was not boosted would risk a level of hospitalisation that could overwhelm our NHS and lead sadly to very many deaths….” But the data from South Africa is astonishing. We’ve been told to wait for the Omicron...

    ‘Lockdown’ is when you can only leave your house to go shopping or do ‘one bit’ of exercise per day. We’ve not been in lockdown for some time. We will be again however, if vaccines are not resistant to a variant like the Beta strain (coming soon) which is taking a worrying foot hold in France.

    Agreed. No sympathy or waiting for them. I'm thinking that we should wait for much better progress in the vaccinations of 12yr olds - 50 yr olds who want the jab but have not had the chance to get it.

    They should have waited until the vaccine programme was a lot further forward. Any one buying the Boris Bullshit of ‘if not now, when?’ should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. When the Delta variant was allowed to easily seed in this Country, the road map should have been delayed. The...

    This Delta strain is a real ****. Up to 60% more transmissible, probably more deadly and easily preventable if only we’d closed the borders to India. Single jabs don’t work very well. Probably a 4 week delay in opening up now. Too late to avoid a third spike though. The rate of Infection is...

    And now we get this, hidden away after the 10 O’clock news programmes so that the loosening of restrictions gets the positive headlines the Government want.
