Off Topic Corona virus

Well, he's not a personal close friend of mine like i would imagine Joe Biden or Donanld Trump aren't friends of yours, so yes, i do get my views on him through the media.
i generally take no notice of those opinion poll ratings to be honest, if they are true though there must be a lot of useful idiots in Victoria

 

Righto Este, apologies my friend

 

OLOF won’t like those figures and I note how he swerved the main content

 

Being a Queenslander I wouldn't want to comment on the intelligence levels in Victoria

 

My daughter 15, said to me this morning,
Dad I'm really bored of coronavirus, wearing masks at school, restrictions and endless testing at her basketball club etc.
I think she is right, it’s time to be done with restrictions masks etc.
Everyone has had the opportunity to get the injections now.
If you have fine, if you haven’t your choice.
If you want to wear a mask, well you can.
If you don't agree with busy places don't go.
We have to get 'Our Lives Back', we can’t go on like this forever it’s already been 2 years.

 

What figures were they then?
You've done nowt but swerve my questions all the time tuppence
Did you like the figures from the ONS or do you want to be perpetually kept in fear?

I don't really give a **** whats going on down under and i can't be arsed searching google like Eric to get graphs and stats in that way.

 

Generally agree Este I still have concerns about unvaccinated people clogging up the health system so our rules at the moment are simply there to limit the rate at which the unvaccinated go to hospital.

 

Are you a native Australian Eric or a Brit, er can i say that. i mean British?

 

It's complicated, I'm an Australian but not indigenous

 

Any British roots?

 

Yes, my Mother was from Otley, or there abouts

 

She more than likely wasn't sent there for being naughty... so
Ten pound pom by any chance?

 

True but,
They still let fat bastards into macdonalds,
You can buy a car or bike that goes 150mph,
You can smoke, drink take drugs,
Go skiing rock climbing etc.
The list is endless.
Oh, and you could also catch the good old flu.
This omicron is no worse than the above, unless the virus mutates into something extremely lethal it’s time to get our lives back.

 

The omicron has got it in for the Aussies Este, the rest of the world its ok with

 

Nasty, vindictive spikey virus

 

You'd better let the experts know, they're saying its no more than a common cold, highly contagious but just like the common cold, its worse for the jabbed apparently

 

Maybe you could tell the people who are dying here to pull themselves together and so being so soft.

 

People die everyday all over the world, its been happening ever since we've been here,

 

A'int it true

Not correct in the UK according to the BMJ. The most important thing to remember is that Omicron is highly transmissible but the symptoms are much less severe so someone could have been admitted for something else but tested positive within 28 days, and they would still be included innthe figures. It's the nonsensical way the WHO wants the data collected.
As has been posted before, a huge amount of deaths that are attributed to Covid weren't actually Covid deaths.

Where is the flu this year?
