PLEDGEY 493 Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Bloke on radio 4, who helped develop one of the vaccines, was asked if he had had it, he said no. When asked why he said there were people more worthy of it then him. Really......who could be more worthy of the vaccine than the people that have developed it????. Daughter in law of the bloke I work with is a Nurse. She asked one of the consultants if he was going to have it and he said no. Link to post Share on other sites

A healthy helping of both. I'm not worried about either but I am concerned about elderly family and friends. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Flu in the UK had reached its lowest level for 130 years. I would suggest it's because all flu cases are now recorded as covid. Government say it's low because we are wearing masks and social distancing.....but....covid cases are high because we aren't wearing masks or social distancing. Link to post Share on other sites

They've stated a lot of things. Usually accompanied by words like "There appears to be some evidence to suggest...." based on guesses and projections from Chris Whitty who needs stringing up. What's the chances that we're toeing the mask/social distancing line just enough to reduce flu while ignoring it enough to increase covid? Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly mate, I'd agree with that assessment. I'm sure some of our resident experts will debate that in the coming pages.
