You'll need to show me, however, where I said the vaccines would cure someone who currently has covid. You appear to have entirely fabricated that. BTW. Talking of last year? Can you think of one big difference this year? Anything at all? Begins with a v. Rather than being a dick, why don't you enlighten us all on how YOU think the endgame for all of this should work out. If vaccines aren't the answer then what's the f**king point? Where are we going? Zero deaths? We already have that. Zero hospitalisations? Pretty close to that. Zero cases? Well, we're pretty close to that too. At what point do people like you stop pissing your frillies? Why say “ok, I’m a dick” in four simple words when you have 5 column inches kicking around spare?

faraway saint Posted May 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Despite the media continuing to stoke the scaremongering fire cases, including this India variant, have been in decline for months. Makes you wonder why there are no fans allowed into Hampden today, a shocking situation and sad for both teams and supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it's no surprise to me that you can't answer any of my questions. You knicker wetters have been struggling with these perfectly reasonable questions for months now.

You know it all. You're not to be taken seriously. Well. What a surprise. Why don't the pair of you come back to the topic when you have an opinion you've given more than 20- seconds of thought towards. Preferably an opinion which doesn't collapse like a flan under the pressure of a couple of simply questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrin Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) You didn't ask me any 'simply questions', IIRC. Just warbled about your belief system being different. I was very on-topic with all my posts except when I've had to respond to you. I'll stop doing that - you just carry on copying your hero, fartaway, with your ageist irrelevancies.

FTOF Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Caught a very interesting discussion between Professor Linda Bauld and Dr. Chris Smith (A virologist at Cambridge university) this morning. Apparently due to the public health measures like hand washing, face masks and social distancing, Influenza has all but disappeared during the pandemic. Flu Has Disappeared Worldwide during the COVID Pandemic - Scientific American As influenza hasn't been as prominent as usual, it has meant that there has been little or no opportunity to work on predicting and formulating flu vaccines for the inevitable return of influenza when things "open up" worldwide. There's also a worry about lack of opportunity to build up immunity to the influenza strains, particularly in toddlers. Predictions seem to be that we're going to get hammered with a bad flu season. However, they were saying that it should be possible to deliver influenza jags along with Covid boosters, if required. Another intriguing twist to the great virus v human competition.

Aye, seen that, these two have been very good in their Saturday morning appearances. Straight forward, no scaremongering, very refreshing.
