Mad_Cyril thank you. I think a nominal donation to a charity of my choosing would also be appropriate.

      Along_the_Wire yet most of continental Europe, including Germany, continue to either maintain or intensify lockdowns, despite generally plummeting cases, citing “worries over Omicron” . It makes little sense, they should be letting Omicron take over. They seem to be wilfully sticking their fingers in their ears regarding the evidence on Omicron to keep this nonsense going.

          Mad_Cyril i was going to recommend Resident’s Experiencing Homelessness Due to Eviction by 140bpms, LLC but if you have another in mind that is fine too.

            I have several bids on the go for (worn) articles of Nina’s clothing.

            But can chuck a few quids to the Hobo’s too, no problem

            alistair Let people go to Mcdonalds and not the gym still getting my head round that one.

            How about instead of wasting money on adverts regards to covid they actually educate people on how to look after their physical and mental health to take the strain off the NHS.

              zackster most of the time I look back on my US college undergrad education, it just hurts thinking about what a monumental waste of money it was. However, the side hustle phd in drug consumption and fist pumping power prog was crucial in my development.

              It’s a shitty system, but now I find myself complaining about the masters/mba glass ceiling in corporates.

                hugopal yeah it’s beginning to feel like omicron is some click baity scaremongering by the media. At the same time, after seeing what happened in India this April, I think it’s better to be safe than sorry. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t scenario for the politicians.

                  hugopal It makes little sense, they should be letting Omicron take over.

                  Up there with some of the most idiotic shite ever written on this board. Savage ignorance.

                      Will anti vaxers ultimately mean there are no anti vaxers?

                        I could not give a single shit. I understood some hesitancy in some groups initially, trust wasn’t there, but it’s been a year since my first jab and my head hasn’t fallen off.

                            LT42 So is there no science towards herd immunity for this much milder variant?

                                    Mask mandates across the board reinstituted for all nine Bay Area Counties. This should be a rough few weeks but we’ll get through it. The vaccines are holding up very well but the positive cases are through the fucking roof. We might top 1,000 a day just in San Francisco.

                                    As for herd immunity, not happening.
