I didn’t drink much in the plane as I still can’t taste shit, but waiting for my flight to Puerto Rico, I forgot about the taste thing and just spent $15 dollars on massive can of Hazy Little Thing IPA and was really excited about it - can’t taste even a little bit of the cunt.

    The violins will be out soon Grant!

    Let’s see what the charts look like in a week, as there is a lag, I can see mandatory 10 day self isolation for all inbound travellers very soon

      And so on we go in perpetuity. Ever had the feeling you’ve been cheated?

      The usual length of a pandemic is 2-4 years. We’ve only just gotten to two years if you count by when it appeared in China.

        Let’s hope so Hursty, give the fucking plebs in the press something to spraff on about

        Let’s get bang on it Dubbers, triple jabbed rave up for the old and infirm 😂

        I’m guessing to try and flatten the curve?

          Hursty what curve? Cases mean nothing if they do not translate into hospitalisations.

              Also the 7 day incidence for hospitalisations in Berlin is only on the so-called ‘yellow’ traffic light.

                Jules72 they are always full up. They are not currently full of covid.

                Covid survival rate globally as of 9th September 2021 98.39% no doubt closer to 99% due to vaccine and anti viral drugs now, Hepatitis A is more deadly.
