The Valneva vaccine in the table that @Bugsy posted earlier in the thread appears to be an inactivated live virus. I have never heard of Valneva, but it's possibly a recent merger of companies that were more widely-known (note that these mergers and name changes often happen as a result of a...

I will wait patiently in line until they get down to my category (55-60, no known underlying health problems - touch wood), then i will willingly have it. I simply do not understand the conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxxers and other collective frothers who believe this is all set up to track...

I'd rather people muted themselves when they aren't contributing (so why are they there at all, you might ask!), as the "noises off" can be really distracting, but the learning curve really shouldn't be that steep, as @skyblue1991 says

Absolutely fucking spot-on!! And in some cases, these are people who have been put in positions of authority regarding Covid response in major educational establishments (mentioning no names) Fucking clueless! Oh, and Chris "I'm Very" Whitty and Patrick Unbalanced needing to ask the...

Look, can we take this offline? Grrrr!

Nick, are you actually going around town TRYING to find "pacific" things to annoy you now?

Was it Jeremy Vine talking about Imperial measurements again?

Most of them are just vain beyond belief!

They annoy me too - particularly if they then moan that everyone's commenting on how nice her pics look, and does she fancy a date, etc!

This is fallout from "reality" programmes like The Apprentice, where they have to hold them like that for the sound guy to pick them up - the yoof of today now think that is normal behaviour! Twats!

Yeah - not for flu though. Lowest figures in a couple of decades. Not only were people (and viruses) not circulating, but it was a mild winter (highly correlated with low death rates) and the Covid-19 got those most likely to die from flu

No, you were right first time!

Flu did NOT kill 64000 people in 2018 - it killed about 28,000 in the year to March 31st 2018. Unless of course, you choose to believe that the PHE weekly and annual flu surveillance reports are all made up as well.

The way my wife "tidies up" any little thing i leave around (actually next to my laptop on the dining room table) - the latest is the instructions for a wine kit i am using for the first time. Alright love, i'll just fucking guess the rest of it - if it turns out like piss, it's all yours! It's...

Presumably "I can't wait ... to be sharing a blanket in a shop doorway with my owner after he loses his house due to a huge gambling debt". Ban the lot of them

"ickle" (instead of little, btw!) - boils my piss

Nucular instead of nuclear (even from high-ranking politicians and supposedly clever scientists)

It always makes me chuckle when i see the Moretti ads, being all Italian families, etc - "L'Autentica" is their trademark, yet they are owned by Heineken and it's brewed in Edinburgh!! Globalism is horrible!

There are very few lagers brewed in their country of origin for the UK market (the exceptions being the ones owned by Asahi International - which include Peroni, Grolsch and Urquell). Corona is another one, but not an Asahi brand. So your Carlsberg, Budweiser, Tiger (the Singapore one, not...
