“I’m not like your average 18 year old”.
No you’re 16 ft tall

A lot of us work in healthcare and trust me, I have lived and breathed Covid almost 24/7 for 2 years. Including catching it, losing people and people struggling with long Covid. If anyone is sick of Covid, it’s def us.
She’s some gobby pleb who sits on TV in a sparkly eyeshadow
I can assure you we wish it wasn’t here, but it is, and we need to just do what we need to do to get through it.

I am so glad there is a thread on this woman! When I worked in PR she was THE most vile person I came across and I worked with some well known names who you would expect to be 100x worse.
The problem with her views at the minute on COVID are that it’s her way or no way, as someone said above does she not take into account how her rants are affecting those on the front line. Example. My mental health is being hugely affected by the news/ threats of lockdowns/ more restrictions but my best friend is an ITU nurse and her MH is being affected by the rising cases/ peoples behaviour. Neither of us are bad people because we want different things but I feel that with people like DW if you’re not on her wavelength you are wrong. Not just with her but with a lot of people lately there’s no 2 way conversation it’s just one side shouting their opinion.
The loose women panellists are paid £3k per episode which in my opinion should come with a level of professionalism but 99% of the time I see her on there she is talking about herself or her experience EVERYTHING has happened to her or someone she knows, she uses the show as a personal therapy session.
She’s a narcissist bully

Yeah, between Denise Welch and Chris Witty, it’s the medical professional who is the “brainwashed idiot”, as opposed to the rent-a-gob 90s soap actress.

I am excited, yet dreading this. The show is so legendary - I am hoping and praying that they stick to the original format.
We don't want to see Insta influencers and Gen Z Tik Tokers.
Please give us housemates like a dinner lady from Salford, a cardiac nurse from Birmingham, a deaf mechanic who strips in his spare time from Glasgow, a socialite who has never worked a day in their life who has distant connections to the royal family from Buckinghamshire, an artisan chocolate entrepreneur who resides in the Cotswolds but also has a holiday home in the south of France, a stripper who was once homeless and now volunteers with numerous charities and is only on BB to raise awareness, a former drug addict from Cardiff who has transformed their life, a single mother from Luton with 14 kids.
I know this is wildly detailed but this format is what made BB what it was - real people from all walks of life.

A cold? I (was) a healthy 38 year old when I contracted covid, it was a horrendous 3 week flu and 8 week cough - yep, I got better, but the virus thickened my blood and I ended up with a blood clot in each lung, which in turn weakened my heart. I ended up in acute care struggling to breathe on the verge of a heart attack. It might be a 'small cold' for some but the after effects can be horrific. It's in no way as simple as you suggest.
this in itself is just such a good example of unresearched misinformation. Diseases, virus’s and bacteria mutate and change. Every year, flu vaccines are adapted to the new mutations. It doesn’t stop people catching flu and it doesn’t eradicate flu, but it reduces the possibility of hospitalisation and serious illness.
measles can be such a serious illness. If I can only ask one thing, educate yourself? Google the history of measles or something. Which, FYI has been around for thousands of years and killed millions of people in horrible deaths and took many years to tackle as science Wasn’t as advanced as it is now.
I don’t know if you do know, but feels right to tell you - one bout of Covid won’t protect you from ever having Covid again, or getting it seriously and the reason you aren’t catching measles again Is because so many people have had a vaccine now that it’s unlikely you will be exposed to it. Covid is still very new, so much higher chance you will be.
Your ethics mean your morals stand for not caring about anyone else but yourself. That doesn’t make it unethical for vaccines to protect others. It doesn’t work like that. You have your own ethics, and you have ethics for the good of society, usually decisions made by the organisation who governs society. This is also thousands of years old, it’s why we have law enforcement, laws, rules and courts.
You can opt out of being part of society, sure, but that doesn’t make the government unethical. You just don’t agree
The way I can explain this simply is, say you caught Covid version 2.1, many months ago, you will have had antibodies to that version, which over time wear off
Everyone who has had vaccines has had periods of immunity over the last year which keeps being topped up. Like oil in a car engine.
I’ve had 3 vaccines, so I didn’t catch any of the other versions because the vaccines were made before omicron version, which has different spike proteins. But I did catch omicron. I was sick, like a bad cold, because I had some immunity to some of the elements of the virus. I didn’t pass it to any of my family. Now I have some more immunity to omicron. This might not last forever, and new versions of virus and vaccine will be adapted. Every year, flu vaccines are adapted to the most common strains of flu. Flu is very old, been around a long time. It knows what it’s doing and we know a lot about it. COVID is new. We know less. We are learning more. Science tells us from experience of flu, to vaccinate and help the immunity of those more vulnerable. To protect vulnerable people, it is a good thing as a human being to do what you can to prevent harm to others, and having vaccines and wearing masks is one way you can do that.
you can also choose to just do what you want though and not care about anyone else’s life and that’s your choice. I don’t want friends like this though, or to be around these types of people so it’s going to be unfortunate that people may choose to shun you or have an opinion that you may be selfish. That’s ok too, our choice

Because anyone who doubts the efficiency and science of vaccines is an idiot, quite frankly.
is this meant to be sarcasm
as you just listed literally 6 has beens, who would love a chance to resurrect their dying careers!none of whom are doctors, scientists, lawyers etc.
you win the Internet today for saying we should all listen to Right said Fred
paragons of virtueI’m ok also, I don’t want to take away anyone’s sense of power. You go do that and I will stick with my job in healthcare looking after all the unvaccinated sick people
