Off Topic Coronavirus

Riots in Amsterdam and Eindhoven.....a centre burned down in Urk.
Second week running there has been disorder.
Yeah the cultural thing about vaccinations is very strange. I’ll see what anecdotal evidence of non compliance I can find when I get back to work....most of our patients are Asian so will be interesting to gauge some opinion.

 

Scary to think that anti-vax ignorance could lead to a less effective immunity outcome.

 

Im not too sure if the minority in the country who are anti vaccine (their choice of course) would be enough to effect immunity.
I might be wrong though

 

Cheering for something that does you or this country no good but probably leads to the deaths of a few thousand Europeans isn’t a great look.

 

Stop being an idiot. It has nothing to do with that and you know it.

 

Some better news today.

You have got to be the most boring F*****g *****r on this site with tedious remarks against anyone or anything that has been put up this site, god just F**k off Watford

 

Still going great guns with the vaccinations, was there any indication as to when we are likely to be slowed down by supply?

 

Cheers Jeff. Hope you’re well.

 

The MSM must be really pissed off, we're getting ahead of the curve on vaxes, the number of cases has dropped off by half in two weeks and the EU is having a hissy fit over their dire figures. Good news doesn't fit their narrative...

 

I don't see how the EU doing badly can be seen as good news.

 

Absolutely...the longer it goes unabated the more chance of new variants....and our program will be in vain

I am very glad ( selfishly for myself) we are doing vaccination so well. But until it is conquered worldwide life won't get back normal.

We are all in this together

 

I’m old enough to remember a poster crowing about France catching us up on deaths.

We’ll pass 100k in the next day or two and 1000 in a day is barely news any more. If the MSM (quite a broad term to lump The Express and Guardian together) has a particular narrative they’ll presumably be delighted.

 

Mostly good news then

 

They've been hoisted by their own petard, a few months ago we were being told we'd regret not buying into their vaccine deal. Their red tape and strategy shows up everything that behemoth represents and why we're now in a far better position than we would have been otherwise.

The government has made far too many mistakes and been deservedly monstered for them, on this occasion they've played a blinder and deserve the credit.

The EU are only just beginning to realise, like they did with PPE, that some things are far better dealt with locally. Hungary have approved a deal with Russia for the Sputnik vax which says it all...

 

I'm not saying that Britain doing well with vaccinations isn't a good news story, it plainly is. What I find bizarre is how some people seem to be revelling in the fact that the EU is struggling, often as justification of Brexit.

Some things are indeed better dealt with locally, Test & Trace for example. The government does deserve credit for the success of the vaccination programme, mainly for the fact that they resisted the temptation to hand it to their mates to make massive profits out of. More credit should go the NHS, the Army, St Johns Ambulance and the hundreds of volunteers that are getting the job done, though.

 

Come off it, it's not revelling.
It's an example of being better off out of the EU.
EU supporters on here are forever asking for examples of this and this is one.

Sorry all, wrong thread really.
