The name scans correctly too!May as well have Mickey mouse address the nation at this point.
Really odd, maybe to reinforce importance of booster?Starmer is to address the nation at 7pm. How exciting.
Considering we only starting sequencing what 10 days ago?Someone has died with Omicron not OF Omicron. That's the thing they forget to tell us.
Just seems very convenient that we have our first death not long after Boris is telling everyone they must get their booster. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but even I can see there's dodgy goings onConsidering we only starting sequencing what 10 days ago?
Quick turnaround there mind. Infected to death AND sequenced
And not just ‘our’ first death. The first death globally!Just seems very convenient that we have our first death not long after Boris is telling everyone they must get their booster. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but even I can see there's dodgy goings on

Has there not been deaths in Africa?And not just ‘our’ first death. The first death globally!
Nope. There have so far been no recorded deaths due/with the new variant anywhere on this planet. Until today.

TheI’m glad there are others on here who have had the 2 jags but won’t get the booster. I’m the same - I don’t really want a booster every 6 months! Especially when the new variants are obviously getting weaker it’s pointless, also how are they going to define “fully vaccinated”? 1 booster? 2 boosters? I’m still going out to my clubs and events with no anxiety, I’m aware I could very easily catch it in those environments but that is a risk I am willing to take.
I don’t see the point in putting your life on hold for years now in fear of a virus that isn’t going away anytime soon! If your scared stay at home but national lockdowns solve nothing. I became increasingly suicidal during the past lockdowns and didn’t ask for help seeing as the NHS MH services are non-existent. The strain on the NHS is caused by underfunding and people abusing the system, covid is clearly not as big as an impact on the NHS as the media makes it seem. It’s all just deflection from solving the actual problem.
My husband hasnt. Has worked all through in hospitals and isnt vaccinated. Son has never had it either.Has anyone on here not knowingly had covid yet? I've been lucky and managed to avoid thus far
You live off grid? That's amazing. I always used to think the idea was better than reality but the older I get, the more it appealsMe I live off grid, don't have anyone in my life, just me and nature as its been all my life. Highly unlikely to ever get it and I'm very fit and healthy so most likely to be ok if I did.
Hope you continue to be healthy, I'm sure a positive outlook goes a long way too
I do like how he refers to Boris as aCummings is singing like a canary again
My friend was consistently negative on LFs but had positive PCR. Sadly the tests aren't reliableI potentially have it now… I was in contact with someone last Monday, who tested positive on the Wednesday. Coincidence or maybe not, I started getting cold symptoms on the wed, still have now. I know I should get a PCR but I haven’t, I’ve done lateral flow tests since Thursday and they have all been negative. I know they are not as accurate but I would have thought if I had it then I would have been infectious enough since then to show as positive on atleast one of the tests. I have been to a local shop but worn a mask but not really been out anywhere else. My feelings are.. and so is my mams… that my parents are fully vaccinated (plus a booster) and have had covid, and wear masks when in shops, they have done all they can in regards to what they have been told to do, and are as protected as they can be… they ARE going to come into contact with covid again at some point and understand that, but have done what they can to protect themselves and want to keep living. If they avoid everyone now who ever has a cold/cold symptoms then it just starts to get ridiculous. Yes, if I see my mam in the next few days I will wear a mask, and I wouldn’t purposely go near someone really old or who I knew had underlying health problems.. but I am not getting a PCR unless I show as positive on the LFT. I know some people will think I am selfish, but on the other hand I know a lot of people will be the same. I am fully vaccinated by the way and have my booster booked.
My boyfriend had covid back in July who I live with, and I stayed negative (PCR and ten days worth of LFT) despite sleeping in the same bed as him (although I did have funny pains in my arms and legs so maybe I did have it then, who knows)
