Im the same, and I wont do a PCR now unless I have a positive LTRSame here, tested my daughter yesterday as she was around someone with covid and it was negative. Unless she starts showing any symptoms then I'm not testing again.
Not read the whole thread so apologies if someone else has asked, but is this legit? It doesn't read like something that would be sent by a GP surgery. There are also a few mistakes with punctuation (lack of spaces after fullstops and that second apostrophe shouldn't be there), which makes me dubious.
No, what’s fucked up is that we are prioritising booster jabs over all gp appointmentsThat's some super fucked up logic right there
This is exactly what I mean about statistics out of context. Headline news is highest cases ever. But in reality the number of tests conducted is much much higher than usual and positivity rate hasn't increased much from last week.Saw this for you all. Seems similar positivity rate to us in the US, with testing panic or requirements as well.
Latest UK Covid figures: 78,610 cases from 1,319,891 tests, hence 5.96% positive test rate.
Previous peak cases: 76,128 cases on 4 Jan 2021 from 464,611 tests, hence 16.39% positive test rate.
Today’s figures show 3.3% increase in cases over Jan peak, but required 184% increase in tests.
imagine all the cash wasted on testing was put into hospital capacity and hiring especially with an older population we have with the boomer generation. But nah, that’s not important!
Yeah reporting positivity rates would be much more useful than raw numbers.This is exactly what I mean about statistics out of context. Headline news is highest cases ever. But in reality the number of tests conducted is much much higher than usual and positivity rate hasn't increased much from last week.
Depends when his symptoms started I think.My nephew has tested positive anyone know if I have to isolate if I saw him on Sunday?
That's just collateral damage. It's ONLY covid deaths that matter.What will locking down achieve though? More deaths through loneliness and depression?
But cases mean nothing as long as hospitals don't become overwhelmed.
He’s only 8 and has two lateral flow positive tests he’s away for a PCRDepends when his symptoms started I think.
Girl at my work had been in the office on a Wednesday, symptoms started Friday, then tested positive on LFT/PCR on Saturday - NHS didn’t need her work contacts as it was pre-symptoms!
This is what i don’t understand, its doing what viruses do, it’s becoming less lethal, they scientists know this,surely they were expecting it?Cases literally mean fuck all. In fact, if it is as mild as OMICRON - it’s a fucking good thing! We want to all have it, that’s how pandemics end, it becoming a none entity. They are hyping this with 0 context to purposefully rile people up.
Fucking sick of even thinking about it all at this point.
Stop handing it to them and stop testing FGS.
The hair.He ambles in for the briefing 7 minutes late, the lazy git!
Ofcourse they do. But if they told people that they’d stop making money off their vaccines.This is what i don’t understand, its doing what viruses do, it’s becoming less lethal, they scientists know this,surely they were expecting it?
The Government can do what they want. We don't have to comply. It is on each and every one of us who needlessly tests, needlessly stays home. You have to be the change you want to see.stop being angry about people who want a lockdown and be angry at the government who put us all in this neverending hell hole instead
