    It would be futile as the endless font of molten drivel coming from the lads would only serve to explode them out of it and back to us like two huge radioactive slurry-comets

      I was watching a panel of experts (one from U.K. , Netherlands and somewhere else) on some news channel over here and they were noticing the public are getting fatigued with the idea of worrying about covid.

      They said whilst the vaccines are less capable than normal of stopping people catching it all together, when people are vaccinated it’s more or less coming across as a bad head cold.

      But what we don’t see and what breaks their heart is that - even with Omicron - there are severe hospitalisations from people who were too scared / believed the hype about being unvaccinated and many have died.

      They are working on modifying the vaccine for the latest variants but their many worry is that the first line of defence may be waning if people get complacent about the fourth (or any) vaccine and they couldn’t overstate the urgency that we do keep boosting until a longer term solution is found.

      There are 2 million people in the U.K. alone severely debilitated with long covid (jobs lost, a shadow of their former selves) and this scares me most - i know a few people personally with it and it’s a really grim change in quality of life.

      It was a bit of a wake up call for me hearing this as I have definitely been in the ‘completed it mate’ cocky group for a while having had it in April - but the rates here are absolutley jumping here again as they are around the world - and I’m sat in peak summer cyprus where we are so much more outdoors so not looking forward to winter!

      This is exactly why I got the second booster

      Should I be getting a 4th jab?

      The answer is yes, alongside a few right hooks and a few uppercuts.

        And one of these…

          I love Mallorca. Helps to have a lovely little place I am always welcome in a lovely part of the island. Port d’Andratx. Stunning place

            Two years plus on from this and this thread is still providing. I’m chuffed to bits.

            I honestly think COVID is basically here to stay and we’re going to be dealing with it like we deal with the flu - which in itself kills large numbers of people a year. Governments will get behind pushing people to get vaccinated during winter months as new variants and such emerge.

            Any politician within their right mind - whether or not you agree - isn’t going to lock us back down again.

            I got my ass absolutely handed to me in March 2020 with first wave COVID when they weren’t testing. The only reason I know this is because when I got my second vaccination, it made me feel the same way but not as severe. I’ve been a bit cocky since thinking that if I got it again it couldn’t be as bad, but considering my sister and brother in law have Long COVID, I’m not sure I should be.

            Since things opened up again this past winter here in Canada, I’ve gone out more than I have in the last five years combined. I’ve desperately needed to get the rave out of me after this nearly three year disaster.

            In summation; we’re all fucked.

            Day 3 here, and feeling fucking awful. Mrs Vin’s fever broke on day 4, so hopeful I follow suit tomorrow.

            Broadly the same symptoms as when I had it in March 2020, but noticeably milder. Not fun having it in 32c heat though. Have got a weird kinda buzzing headache as well. Not painful, but more a weird sensation. That can fuck right off n all…

            My third shot was in January, and won’t be getting a fourth yet because I’m not over sixty. Had covid in February, totally asymptomatic. Covid is everywhere right now, so I’m kind of got to the conclusion that by attending Flow-festival in three weeks I’ll get it again.

            More like the Rapid Flow Festival, am I right?

            Dubman if 100% proved correct then can countries around the world claim compensation from China for the damaged they have caused. I’m guessing that’s a non starter, but something needs to be done to prevent this happening again due to these dodgy markets in China.

            Hopefully any signs of a repeat of this in the future the whole world immediately shuts down it’s doors to China so we can all carry on whilst they deal with it
