Yeah...about 1200 in Italy ICU and rising quickly I believe....but that's still more delta isn't it?
I know Poland is currently struggling with large delta deaths..... and France is looking proper scary...especially as they reckon they've got a 2 week lag before their omicron wave takes off....

Omicron is around 21% now, I believe.
With all of the evidence, I genuinely don’t understand how some are still too scared to get vaccinated.

Was chatting to a mate of my Mrs. Who works frontline NHS and she's overwhelmed...mainly cos of the amount of asymptomatic isolators....she reckons asymptomatic front line staff should not have to isolate as its causing more damage than covid....and they all wear the PPE anyhow....

It's a fair point.

Would it be logical to allow them to work in the 'hot' area of the hospital where people have already got COVID anyway? Not sure whether that would have an adverse impact on the already infected?

Because you're a weirdo with a history of making up bullshit and posting it in this thread.

Doing a "baldy" is slang now for making up unbelievable shit and thinking people don't laugh at you for it you racist fuck.

Something like that would surely make sense. It also has the potential to keep people without it away from those hot spots

This isn't advocacy but is an interesting point and does expose the tendency to ride through things that ultimately impact someone else somewhere along with the converse perspective.

Wales' top doctor warns of need to self-isolate even after pandemic

Sir Frank Atherton, the chief medical officer, said it will be preferable for people to say home and get better when they have a cold in future

Can't see that happening.

If somebody doesn't get sick pay or are self employed, they aren't staying at home.

Same for mine in local hospital but the ICU is getting increasingly overwhelmed with very ill non-vaccinated people. This then has a knock-on effect for treating others.

I'm sure you only had it about a week ago? Are you sure you aren't just testing positive from a trace?

Coronavirus pandemic: Antarctic outpost hit by Covid-19 outbreak

Eleven staff members at the station were infected but officials say the situation is not serious.
www.bbc.com

Just where you thought you would probably be safe!

Worth noting that there is a 100% vaccination rate there as it is a requirement for all staff, and the outbreak has still happened.

Last January pre vaccinations/boosters etc, my partner and I both had covid and it hit us really really hard. Isolating with two kids who were 4 and 17 months at the time was ridiculously hard, I look back and genuinely wonder how we did it!

Roll on 12 months, two vaccinations and a booster later and I tested positive about an hour ago. Been feeling pretty rough since NYE morning but LFTS were negative (including this morning) until now. Partner is fine with negative LFTS, and kids too. The thought of having to all isolate again feeling like this is not a good one!

However, am I right that as long as my partner tests negative she doesn’t have to isolate. And kids are lower risk of catching it too?

I’ve got a PCR booked for tomorrow so you never know….

Shite timing though, as my new Boss starts at work next week, so I do not want to be off if I can help it (I can WFH) so praying it only lasts another day as it’s been three so far.

Worth noting that the 100% vaccination rate has meant all the cases are mild and the facility has been able to continue work as normal.

The main point is that even with 100% vaxx rate, this does not end, as we can see here.

Be good if we can get on with our business as usual though whilst living with it like they are because of the vaccine.

There's never going to be a 100% vaccination rate.

There's never going to be a 0 death or case rate.

Nobody has tried to claim that vaccination prevents all infections.

Smallpox has been eradicated and TB virtually eradicated thanks to vacinnations, hopefully the same thing happens here.

The point of vaccines wasn't to end COVID just limit the impact of it.

The end goal is surely rather than eradicate it, weaken it to the point that it doesn't warrant press conferences and daily rates and just becomes something that makes you feel a bit shit in the winter
