Haven’t updated a while, my entire house is now negative. I had no symptoms throughout and tested negative on a LTF after 7 days, extremely bizzare to have had COVID and literally no nothing of it. I think omicron is the end of the pandemic, out competing all other variants and much milder...

All still good in my household, the initial grinch who stole Christmas (and new year) is now testing negative on LTF tests, other older relative still just has aches and pains, most in the back. I still have no symptoms at all.

Walrussing :lolol: :lolol: :lolol:

Day 5 for me, still no symptoms or any sign of infection, LTF test still positive. Looks like I’m one of the lucky ones as most of the other people I know have cold like symptoms, severe aches and pains seem to be the most common thing I’ve heard. It’s weird as well because up until this I only...

I do think at this point everyone is going to catch Omicron, a lot of people I know who have avoided covid since the beginning have now caught it, it seems so contagious it’s going to be like trying to avoid catching a cold. Thankfully with the anti virals, vaccines and other treatments I think...

Still no symptoms on day 3, the only ‘symptom’ I had was the night before my positive test when I felt fatigue but that may have been a coincidence, annoying as I feel full of energy. Went for a PCR test to confirm my LTF yesterday as required and felt like a walking breathing biohazard :lolol:

Still no symptoms for me. Both those I live with now have it unsurprisingly, my other older relative has also tested positive but very minor symptoms and the symptoms on the initial ‘infectee’ (or the grinch who stole Christmas as I call her :lolol: ) seem to be receding, she’s now on the 6th...

Three members of my house, older relative tested positive Monday, her partner and closest contact is still negative. I’ve tested positive this morning after a negative PCR test on Thursday and negative all week on LFT. I’m in my twenties and the good news is I have zero symptoms and my older...

Packed sports stadiums, no mask mandates, near zero restrictions: astounding.

Schools will of course mean a rise, however it’s worth remembering that the R number is simply a reflection of increased numbers testing positive and doesn’t reflect the fact that the number of tests we’ve been doing has nearly doubled between the two periods they’ve measured the R rate for...

I’d love to know just how this is possible, 4 states lifting most restrictions and mask mandates, none have seen any rises in hospitalisations 3+ weeks later, perhaps the cotton face nappies are not much use after all? https://twitter.com/ianmsc/status/1375552170825711616?s=21

A) I hate wearing masks, I feel like a muzzled animal, it’s not normal and never will be in this country. B) There’s hundreds of things that would save lives that we don’t do, as an example: reduce motorway speed limits to 30 they’ll be thousands less deaths a year. C) Social distancing every...

It’s worrying to me that people think mandatory mask wearing or social distance EVERY flu season is now acceptable, I bet he’s not alone either that’s the scary thing. I tell you one thing, as soon as I don’t have to wear a mask I’m never wearing one of the things ever again. Ever. I think the...

11 out of 200000 samples. I do find it strange that up until about November time there were very few mentions of mutations, I remember Hancock saying the virus seemed to have stayed nearly the same and then now they seem to be discovering a new variant every other day. Besides that, this...

Why anyone still tries to reason with Crodo still I don’t know, just let him get on with it, he said earlier in the thread he’s an obese gentleman with vulnerable family members, it’s not his fault he’s scared and I don’t mean this in a condescending way towards him I really don’t, but people...

There are around 15 million people over 60 in the uk so if the 15m target to immunise them is reached by mid February there can be no argument against lockdown being eased The statistics from NHS England are stark, around 5000 of the deaths have been people under 60, compared to 64000 over 60...

Whilst he’s sitting at home, money rolling in and the rest of us lose our jobs & livelihoods. Once the 15m are vaccinated by mid February, the age groups and vulnerable that equal 90%+ of fatalities there is simply no excuse for not easing restrictions slowly, obviously a few weeks after that...

Be careful by the way, lots of fake vaccination phishing scam emails going about. Had this earlier today from the ‘NHS’ upon further inspection it’s from a hotmail email address and it’s asking you to click a link, luckily enough Im savvy with this kind of thing but as I have, make sure any...

Nearly 90% of deaths are people over 65/clinically vulnerable So once they are vaccinated, What POSSIBLE reason could you have for continuing to lock people away and destroy the economy, when the death rate of COVID for people outside of the vulnerable groups is so low? At that stage even if...

Obesity is a problem in this country and one that has undoubtably made our death toll much, much higher, some people have problems with their weight out of their control, others like I admittedly used to be, are just lazy and eat rubbish, I’ve lost 2 stone since lockdown began as it made me...
