Agreed. If I was Andy I’d take a few LFs this week and if clear next weekend get to the game !
ps if track and trace call, or if you’re positive, legally got to self isolate though Andy
Edit - just seen DODs post, yeah, if track and trace made contact defo got to stay in. Sorry Andy, hope you avoid the virus at least !

But he said the T+T team contacted him as well so isn't it mandatory to isolate of they tell you?
Romesh is the BBC’s go to comedian and deservingly so. He’s a funny funny guy, pretty non political too. Been to see him live and he isn’t political on stage either.
Hes the best of a bad bunch.
Stand up generally has been poor for a while TBF. Worlds got too political.
Totally not relevant I know,but Mick Millers gigs on YouTube are quality stand-ups
He’s not political though. Live he’s very much out of the Richard Prior mould. His comedy is based solely on his life and family. Really polished performer too live.
Ah I’m sorry I only read the pinged stuff sorry for giving crap advice!! What they said
Yep, exact wording is “it is your legal duty to now self-isolate until 8th August (including this date)”. At least it’s on Sky I suppose.
Less than half of coventrys u25s have had their first jab
I'm in town, might end up jabbing a few of the fuckers before the nights out
Couldn’t think where to put this but this is as good a place as any. Fantastic thread on trust in experts and “doing your own research” from a disgusting frozen meat snack company in the states of all places:
I saw they’re now talking about an ‘Amber Watch’ list for travel.
Just saw that Spain now have the highest % of double vaccinated in Europe, that’s some going over the last few months.

Why do you think that is? Are those that haven't had the jab afraid it will cause them long term problems in the future (e.g. infertility)?Less than half of coventrys u25s have had their first jab
Disorganised, not at risk, hard to track down as not registered with GP, probably a bit of conspiracy bollocks as well cos they’re kids.
I wonder if his school nickname was Clarence,he doesn't appear to need a white stick .
Stigmatism not quite an anagram.
All of that. There’s just a real scepticism as well. They think they know better than the medical profession, are ignoring the real world data and would rather take advice from tik tok (couldn’t resist the last one
)I still believe that vaccination should be an individuals choice and can understand some of the younger adults genuine arguments, however, I think a lot of these have been debunked by the Delta Variant, which does appear to have a greater impact on the young. It’s also been proven the risks of clotting etc from covid are far greater than from any of the jabs. It’s like they haven’t updated their knowledge from 9-12 months ago !

Got any evidence that this is the reason for lower uptake or are you just asserting that it’s only this age group that believes nonsense on social media?
Just look at their jeans and haircuts, what more evidence do you need?
Just anecdotal and then based on numbers. On LBC they had a call in aimed at young people and trying to address any vaccine fears or concerns they might have, with a scientist/medical professional dealing with their questions. Several uni students called up and trotted out absolute nonsense. I think the scientist must’ve had their head in their hands
Of course there’s people of all ages that listen and follow crap on social media but the numbers are suggesting there’s currently more younger people. As I say unfortunately many appear to be taking their knowledge/understanding from months ago....the world and virus has changed (I’ve certainly changed my view on personal risk from Covid in recent months)
I haven’t seen actual polling on the reasons-but Steve’s anecdotes and ‘lol young people on TikTok’ aren’t convincing me. Ignoring of course the many stories of students queuing round the block whenever a university announced a walk in was available.
Believing conspiracy nonsense isn’t solely the preserve of the under 25s
What I’m saying to you is show me the hard evidence on why uptake is lower rather than speculating that it’s just because young people are idiots.
The tik tok comment was partially tongue in cheek...I even put a smiley face. The bigger issue is many havent updated their knowledge/understanding
The queues we’re amazing and I’ve said before 70% is impressive uptake...especially when compared to some older age groups of other nations. However there still approx 30% of under 30s not jabbed. Something isn’t right.
It’s their call. I’m double jabbed and am just recovering from Covid. I’m not blaming anyone else but they could/should be protecting themselves
From what I can tel the biggest believers in conspiracy theories are middle-aged men.
One in eight young people in UK still hesitant about getting Covid vaccine
‘Complacent attitudes’ still prevalent among under-30s despite huge push to join rollout
