Sorry to read this cc4l sending you and your family best wishes.

 

[LastGarrison]

Hope she sees some improvement cc4l and try and keep strong as hard as it is.

 

[CCFCSteve]

Not good. She is in ICU now on cpap machine. I'm so scared I'm going to lose them

You stay strong mate. The ICU/treatments are so much more advanced than they were even a year ago. As everyone’s said, all our prayers and best wishes are with you and family

I saw the tweet from his twin sister about it the other day.

I saw this tweet from another person, a vaccine sceptic who had been hospitalised and was deteriorating. I keep looking in and there has been no update which doesn't bode well:

day7heman

I genuinely feared the worse for this bloke, hadn't tweeted anything so guessed he was in a bad way.

But, lo and behold

Incredible, and these people walk among us.

Calling that one a leading university is taking liberties!

Wonder how CC4L and his wife are getting on?
Hopefully some improvement.

 

[Sick Boy]

Finally made it back over yesterday

I just can't anymore, FFS let children and teachers just work normally

Gavin Williamson accused of creating ‘havoc’ as secondary schools set for delayed return (msn.com)

I thought this was just a re-hashed story, a lot of schools have factored in a staggered return for testing.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Looks like the modellers were correct let’s hope they weren’t on the low side

 

[Philosoraptor]

And so it begins...

This will rip through society when the schools in England go back.

Covid in Scotland: Return of schools 'fuelling' record case numbers

The deputy first minister says secondary pupils should continue to wear facemasks as the latest daily case tally reaches a new record.

www.bbc.co.uk

The schools in Scotland go back earlier than the ones in England.

I thought Krankie had it all under control and it was all Westminster's fault anyway

Also as she has stuck to mask wearing in public places how is it now the worst infection rate in the U.K.

 

[hill83]

Let’s not slag off Scotland just yet for fuck sake. It’s not a competition. Fucking weird.

And yeah I mean you Grendel. Odd bloke.

Edit: Brighton as well by the look of it

BSB made the first post. Sturgeon has repeatedly played politics and made it a competition

Two things, delaying the full reopen and their schools going back earlier.

I blame the ramp thing someone left out.

Yeah she’s a pillock. This is more important than point scoring against I don’t even know who on a forum. It’s been Italy for months as well from you. Genuinely odd mate.

Ive made one comment regarding Scotland. Every country plays politics with everything - it hasn’t been Italy for months either - also I’d look at Ursula to really look a political playing

 

[hill83]

Sound crack on

 

[David O'Day]

149 deaths that's creeping up

 

[fernandopartridge]

The numbers of deaths and hospitalisations are stubbornly high.

The ICU doctors I follow on Twitter say that people in ICU are mostly if not all unvaccinated.

I don’t know what else can be done with that being the case to persuade more to take the jab

 

[SomersetSB]

I was speaking to my sister last weekend a very qualified nurse in ICU and she said If any unvaccinated or non believers of COVID were to sit down with her for a couple of hours she’d soon change their mind.
Lots of younger patients in UHCW at the moment she said.

 

[shmmeee]

Stop fannying about to be honest and treating them with kid gloves. Start requiring vaccinations for things that normally need vaccinations like healthcare work and travel. If it’s mostly the young add in nightclubs and education.

from the polling it looks more like a “can’t be arsed and haven’t got round to it” issue than a “muh rights” issue anyway. So a few more reasons to get it done are needed.

I’d even start dishing free stuff out.
Bingo tickets to over 40s and frisbees to under 40s.

Yes but this country goes beserk at any hint that somebody is getting something for free, even if it is in everybody's interests

Be worth it for the fallout. Plus I need a frisbee.

Joking aside, some sort of economy booster. Remember eat out to help out? Something like that but with a proof of vaccine?

 

[hill83]

“Jab for a slab”

Free slab of carling or fosters (keep it basic) with proof of vaccine at any supermarket.

Unless it’s a Tory crony then it’s nothing to see.

 

[David O'Day]

Nationalise Nandos and only allow vaccinated people in?

Jab for a dab.

Provide proof of being double vaccinated and get a free dab of Mandy before going into Kasbah.
