Am hoping I don’t get the dreaded call from the nursery to say they will be shutting down due to a positive test.

I was talking to my brother over the weekend and between me, my family (around 15-20 of us) and my closest friends and their families, not one of us actually knows anyone who has caught Covid throughout all of this. Obviously it’s out there and people on this very board have caught it, but it still surprised me when we thought about it

If we’re testing 200,000 people a day and only 3% of those that think they have it have got it, it’s not widespread, is it?

If you’ve got a cold, you don’t need a test, or to shut down classes and schools

My mate has a horrific infection / cough at the moment. He’s saying he can’t go to the docs for antibiotics or any help until he’s got a negative covid test back so even though he knows he’s just ill, he’s done a test anyway otherwise he’ll be on his back for weeks.

How does he really know he doesn’t have COVID unless he has a test, Wally? There are so many varying degrees of illness that come with it from people being asymptomatic to dying from it. At the end of the day, if they want to slow down / prevent the spread of the virus , these are the types of measures that have to be put in place.

Well he doesn’t ‘know’ definitively I suppose but according to public health guidance he’s got none of the symptoms - high temp, loss of smell / taste and a hacking continuous cough so shouldn’t be taking a test but he’s being pushed into it anyway by his GP.

Parliament bars aren’t subject to the 10pm curfew? Lol

They’re literally laughing at you all.

    Have we any bat shit mental weed smokers on here who could help me work out if the global elite, who are running this fake virus scam by all accounts, are also members of the hollywood peado ring? Or are they entirely different groups, like the PFJ and JPF?

    LT42 it’s been quickly reversed apparently.

      Wally I don’t buy all the hoax theories and Bill Gates is an alien globalist etc etc but I’m really starting to question whether it’s as serious as they say, only because they seem to be writing rules for themselves. It was the same in Ireland a few weeks ago, 100 politicians went on a Golf weekend to a hotel, few rounds, big dinner etc, some travelled from the continent too. Makes you wonder considering they have family like the rest of us.

        I have. It’ll fail because thick fucking cunts will refuse to do for an unspecified reason, or one they definitely don’t understand. Look at Germany and Italy. This island is full of thick, selfish utter fucking cunts.

          I’ve just had an Android pop-up from the app, potential exposure.

          Clicked on it to see deets, it disappeared.

          Cant find any way to review alerts in app itself.

          Splendid!

          Spot on from Darius. Nighttime economy is on its last legs and getting zero help from government

          Along_the_Wire do you trust government developed technology? And I don’t mean big brother aspects - do you trust technology developed by a bunch of incompetents? Imagine the app pings every time you walk past someone who has covid… that’s not how you develop the disease (you need to standing next to them for a period of time) but you will be self isolating for 2 weeks despite very low risk. I’m open minded but I want to understand how it works and that I’m not going to be spending the next 6 months at home isolating due to an app that doesn’t work properly. Most people I’ve spoken to so far (who are pro-masks, pro-distancing) are wary…

            Apparently coppers aren’t allowed to have it installed on police phones or carry thier own phones with them if they have it on it. Not sure why. Location data and it’s not annonymous?

            Not installed it yet. Waiting for the first data scandal to break.

              That isn’t how the app works though mate. Close proximity for 15 minutes triggers an alert.

              If you read the facts, rather than imagine them, it’s easier to get a better grasp of these things 🙂
