It does make for sobering reading. 534 is of concern. There may be a lag but it is not good. As for the govt deciding to stop publishing figures, this just gives off the wrong message. The other day it took them hours to put their scores on the doors.

It took hours the other day because they've just started publishing reinfections, they're hiding nothing.

I hate the Tories but the data the government publishes is world leading between the dashboard and the ONS infection survey. At a point in time publication of daily data does become meaningless if it hasn't already.

As stated pages and pages ago .. these people have been treating people from the get go , none of you gave a fuck .. nothing has changed.. they choose to get jabbed or not they will be under strict guidelines and will have measures in place that have been in place for 2 years already that have been good enough .. move on .. this forum is completely wrong on this subject and I don't care what youshit says , against what the majority think for sure

All it is now is people fighting back against their unpopular opinion which they thought for sure would be implemented , let it go , you were wrong

Vaccines haven't been around since the beginning. When they came on the scene I was pretty clear I thought NHS staff should have them.

What does it say that this many people working in the health service don't see the value in vaccination despite having been surrounded by Covid for 2 years? Same goes for care homes. Call me a bad person or whatever

Maybe they had the slightest hope their employees weren’t selfish morons? Also most people weren’t able to get vaxxed over a year ago, that was only a few months back that everyone had been offered a vaccine.

Its being cancelled because Johnson had a party not because of some great moral victory. I’d expect new hires to be expected to get it eventually like the other vaccines they require.

Yeah, I’m sure they will be too.
As I said before, it feels like general anti-vaccine skepticism will be a legacy of covid, which is weird in 2022.

These selfish morons have been helping to save lives , I'm guessing you've given more to society over the course of the pandemic ?

The vaccine rollout was done in order of need, NHS staff were put joint top of the list. Why?

Like I said , you are all free to choose who cares for you , if the NHS no longer satisfies your needs because of this .. then you're shit out of luck .

Best get people less selfish to care for you

It was painfully obvious that the NHS would never manage , you all pinned your hopes on people being blackmailed into having the jab .. once the government realised that wasn't going to happen and the NHS would fall , they backed off .


Don't need a degree to work out this was a terrible plan from the off , just common sense was enough

Why are they still allowed to work in hospitals if they are a risk to life .. that's the answer to your whole question .. they have been for well over a year.

Like i said , speaks volumes

They work with the vulnerable , it's that dangerous to patients that for well over 365 days they never made their staff take the vaccine , when they could have and now its still that dangerous they've backed off forcing them ..
Pretty soon we won't be isolating with this virus

I’ve only ever met one proper no vaxx (any vaccine) person and they were off their head - I’d rather not be treated by someone like that because they’d probably favour fucking crystals.
Depressingly, I expect more widespread anti-vaccine sentiment will end up being around for a while after the pandemic.
Click to expand...
I was speaking to one I know today and he claimed that on the NHS website it says that the vaccine doesn’t work after six weeks. Turns out he thinks the word efficacy means stop working. Tried explaining that it means the point that the vaccine becomes effective, even tried to show the definition of efficacy on an online dictionary and he just wouldn’t have it.

25% of covid infection is picked up in hospital. I’d hate to have been the person that passed it on to a vulnerable person vaccine or no vaccine

That's not strictly true from what I remember. Seem to recall there were a lot of people calling for NHS workers to be given priority access to vaccines and testing to ensure the safety of patients.

Lets be honest here the u-turn hasn't been made on any scientific basis its been made as the NHS is already screwed with tens of thousands of unfilled positions and now has to deal with struggling to recruit EU workers, with the added bonus that it distracted for a moment from the seemingly never-ending parade of leaks about parties.

Its an easy game: if you’re making money off this nonsense you’re scum, if you’re believing the scum you’re a moron.

We’re going the way of the States where diseases we’d eradicated are going to come back because of fucking TikTok and people who still haven’t grown past the “you can’t tell me what to do” stage of adolescence.

I think some context would be useful both ways. I remember being shocked at how many daily deaths there are every day in the uk
