I'm confused now with all of this stuff ...

I had a little look again and a quote from somebody who's done some digging on his name...

"Key Account Manager for Computacenter - apparently they supply the IT equipment for the vaccine programme. A contract worth £96 million. On LinkedIn he classes the government as a client."

 

**** know what to think or who to trust.

An anti-lockdown/anti-vax protester punched a police horse in Sydney today.

So I'm not that keen on them either.

 

If you didn’t qualify for any then you were possibly in the minority.
But then you would qualify for minorities day.
So you maybe wouldn’t be in a minority so…

 

Yeah. But you can't label all anti lockdown protestors horse punchers (just Geordies)...
Same as you can't call everyone associated with left wing politics crazy when a far lefty drenches themselves in animal blood to protest the meat industry.

Personally I'm against lockdowns and should be up to the person to decide weather they want to risk the 0.1% chance of contracting a dying from coronavirus if you're a healthy below <35 year old like me... Heart disease contributed to ~30% of total deaths in the UK last year, coronavirus was 0.8% just for some perspective

 

I also know more children who have been taken to their GPs for depression (4) and now are banged up on pharmaceuticals than people dying solely from coronavirus (2).

So, from my personal experience not only do I have such a nominal percentage of dying from covid, the chances me or my family will suffer from depression if the current situation continues are far higher.

I feel like I've robbed my kids of a year of their lives and counting, when they aren't even at risk. I've seen my friends businesses in ruins, their careers gone, credit, savings and hobbies crushed.

But it's only for two more weeks to save the NHS... And you only need 2 jabs... Oh wait, Pfizer and moderna are now saying, from yesterday we need a third maybe fourth booster jab...

 

A lot of people are confused but I don’t know what we can do about it.
Another example
Approximately 130,000 deaths spread between 1250 hospitals over the last 52 weeks works out less than 2 a hospital.

 

I despise lockdowns. My industry was ravaged by them. My agency shuttered. I lost my permanent job and have had to get by on inconsistent contract work since.

When my wife fell pregnant, I couldn't help it but once or twice a day I got the very real urge to slash my left wrist with a knife. Not self harm. On some level I was just desperate for a way out. Kid is here though so that's just not something I can entertain anymore.

On vaccines, I just haven't really seen a good reason to not get a one as of yet.

And I've seen a lot of crackpot conspiracies involving sterility and mass execution/control which makes the entire argument difficult to comprehend.

I get that people think it's fearmongering but they're saying an unvaccinated person is a potential host in which the virus can mutate and become vaccine resistant. That means it's not a choice of deciding your own fate, it's deciding the fate of countless others.

On the off chance the scientists are right. I'll be getting the vaccine when it becomes available to me.

If it kills me. I'll be dead. And I won't give a ****.

 

I'm just waiting for it to be approved. Its still in the trial stages.

The flu mutates most years, that's why old people get the an updated version of the flu jab every year. Unlike old people I have a very low chance of dying from the flu (like covid) so I don't need to get boosters.

As for depopulation, millions of people have died, millions of people will die around the world from starvation. Since the pandemic, worldwide starvation is up from 850 Million to 1.2 billion, going not just hungry every night but starving. People suffering from cancelled hospital appointments/operations, the mental wellbeing of billions of people lockdown I think all outweigh the chance of me dying.

We haven't even whitenesed what true inflation looks like, the job market will take years to readjust.

I'm glad me grannies still alive, but she wants to die, she's 98.

 

Consult your doctor. If you don't trust him change doctors and get a second opinion. Don't listen to me or anyone on TV/Internet.

It's not going to wipe the world out, it isn't airbourne cancer.

I spoke to my doctor and took my sisters advice as well, she's a biomed scientist. I'm under 35 and healthy, the drug is still in the trial stages. I have no need to get it so far so I'll just wait and see what happens.

 

No problem with that mate, not quite sure what it’s got to do with what I wrote though?

 

Ah, I read the "we" as "I" while I was cooking a roastie... I thought you were on about you don't know what to do regarding vaccination...

 

Confused again

The news channels have been going on all day about Tom Daley and so they should, Gold Medal winner!

What I don't understand is why, every time they mention him, they have to say HE'S A HUSBAND!!!

 

Pandering

 

As you say no need, the bloke had been a great diver from his early teens, he finally has an Olympic Gold... good on him...everything else is irrelevant..

 

I never had a bloody clue if Brendan Foster was married, single, gay, bi, trans, Mag, Mackem, Catholic, C of E, Methodist, Muslim, Communist, Labour, Tory, pro-life, anti-vaccine or whatever ...


... I didn't care ffs, he was a decent sounding bloke who put his heart into what he did.

That was all I needed to know.

 

I knew a few lads who were supposed to be in Fosters 6th Form class at school. They reckon they got lousy grades cos he was never there... always training!

 

It's all just a bit much. Everyone knows the lad is gay. Great, good for him. Who the **** cares who he sticks his dick in. It's 21st century.

The constant reminder is tiring and it does absolutely nothing for equality. If anything it does the reverse of normalising it.

 

Just on the subject of the olympics I have switched BBC on a few times and never seen any male presenters yet - has anyone seen one?

 

I think you're right, it's counter productive.

No one would be so glowingly proud if an athlete said they'd moved to Germany because the age of consent is 14 years old and they like 'em young. I'm not interested in people's religious, political, sexual, whatever preferences and it doesn't make anyone brave by saying they're Gay, you could say it makes the ones who don't cowards.

But if course you're not allowed to say that as it would be deemed homophobic.

 

One thing I don’t get about our country is the “equality” form at the back of most letters you fill in, they use these for stats and planning.

If they really want equality in this country maybe they should sack these off and treat everyone as if they’re the same, and stop dividing people into groups based on skin colour, religion or sexual preferences.
