Sue Denim 537 Report post Posted July 26, 2020 Flu will kill at least 20,000 people in the U.K. this winter. In a bad year it could be up to 50,000. Far more people will die of flu this winter than Covid, and that’s with a flu vaccine. Why don’t we test for flu as well while we’re at it and isolate all asymptotic flu carriers? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good news all round. It wouldn’t surprise me too much if Clangers had caught it. Then immediately let it slip through his fingers... 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sue Denim 537 Report post Posted July 26, 2020 Unless you are in your 80s, living in a care home, beyond the age of life expectancy and have dementia and heart disease, this isn’t really an issue. If I was in that category it wouldn’t be an issue to me either ffs! So why the f**k is thus affecting football and everyday life? We’ve put life on hold for a bad cold enough is enough. We’re all going to die, many of us with a respiratory illness. That’s life, that’s the way it’s always been and always will be. lets cut the crap and stop all restrictions now if we stop testing for it then the problem goes away 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meanwhile in the real world the rest of us will continue about our normal business taking the self same life precautions we always do. The media / social media lead hysteria is off the scale. Imagine if a real plague emerged in the developed world, it would be armageddon stuff. Let's just concentrate on making it to Hampden. 23 hours ago, Ayrshire Saints said: I see the resident moon howler is now spamming the threads outwith General Nonsense.
