No I didn't, the death rate is lower the the flu.

But the spread is far higher so overall it’s more of a threat. This has been said since day one how are people still falling for this nonsense?

Look, when alls said and done, no world leader shuts down their economy for no good reason. Whatever you’ve read or whatever gotcha you think you’ve got you’ve got to explain why you’re smarter than literally the collective mind of all the smartest people on the planet in this area. It’s just stunning arrogance.

Do you wear a seatbelt
Do you run into roads with cars?
Do you throw away out of date food?
Do you keep toxins out of the reach of your children?

Im sure the Pfizer vaccine is like 75% protection against reinfection and with boosters its 97% effect ive against reinfection, either way deaths and hospitalisations will not get even half of the previous waves.

Indeed. It's inevitable it will subside at some point, the question is just when - and that's something none of us have the answer to, really.

I didn't say you couldn't catch it again, but natural infections protect you at 97% from reinfection + 2 jabs is 75% 3 jabs 97% common sense really, cases are only so high atm because kids, its as simple as that out the 52k cases yesterday I read somewhere like 28k were kids under 17

And the chances of long Covid under 17 are? yep I think the number of cases is not as important as deaths and hospitalisations but even so

Im not saying its 100% but it protects enough, and nooster shots only increase that number, eventually it will run out of people to infect, unless öt mutates last the vaccines, and if thats the case then it will be similar to the flu, 1 or 2 shots per year to protect the ones that are vulnrable

Just stop hiding and crying, there is no stopping it apart from vaccines and herd immunity, cant just lock down every few months because you're scared.

BMA’s chair of council, Chaand Nagpaul, and the NHS Confederation urged the government to act now.

“The Westminster government said it would enact ‘plan B’ to prevent the NHS from being overwhelmed,” Nagpaul said. “As doctors working on the frontline, we can categorically say that time is now.

“The reality today is an unacceptable rate of infections, hospitalisations, and deaths, unheard of in similar European nations. It is wilfully negligent not to be taking any further action to reduce the spread of infection, such as mandatory mask wearing, physical distancing, and ventilation requirements in high risk settings, particularly indoor crowded spaces.”

Unheard of in similar nations because we're well ahead of them with everything, look at the trends in Europe now, Románia ukrain, Italy, Germany theyre all starting to get cases as a very high rate, Germany 20k cases 80 deaths yesterday, we test alot more than Germany and pick up alot more cases give it say 6 weeks and Germany, France, Poland and many others will be having more cases deaths and hospitalisations than us, and if not I will delete my account and do you all a favour as you dont like my opinions.

How do you know they are coping quite well, have you asked them all? My Brother in law was taken by ambulance to hospital with a potential heart attack earlier. An hour and a half later he's still sat in the back of the ambulance in the hospital car park because there are no beds available.

Researchers showed that COVID-19 survivors -- including those not sick enough to be hospitalized -- have an increased risk of death in the six months following diagnosis with the virus. They also have catalogued the numerous diseases associated with COVID-19, providing a big-picture overview of...

Could be still in the ambulance because covid protocols prohibit them from just dropping the patient off. They have to remain in the ambulance until they can be seen.
One of the major factors in having to wait so long for an ambulance in the first place, they're all in a queue at the hospital.

He's in a large queue of ambulances which for our local hospital in the past few months has become par for the course . The ambulance turned up at his inside a few minutes whereas a lad was knocked off his bike at 7:45am a couple of days earlier in the same area and he lay in the road in the driving rain for well over an hour before an ambulance showed up for him.
