Will the insanity never end?
- Gap between second dose and booster reduced from six to three months
At the risk of going all Victor Meldrew, I don’t believe it. These people are insane. It’s the only explanation. We get Penfold wibbling on about football…
We know Prof Van-Tam is a fan of a football analogy when used to describe the battle against Covid.
He says we started with 11 players on the pitch – there have been a couple of injuries now and now some subs are off the bench.
We are “well in the game” and vaccines are holding up and largely “keeping us out of trouble”, he says.
But Omicron is giving “yellow cards to key players” he adds, saying we are “starting to feel at risk”.
It is the time for everyone to up their game, with the risk we could go to 10 players, he adds.
Everyone has to play their part. In terms of boosters, he says it has “never been more vital” than at this point to come forward the moment you are called.
I’ve not come across such utter bollocks in a long time – and there’s been plenty to choose from here (football analogies usually are). This is pure, unadulterated, stupid, moronic wibble. It is meaningless nonsense. We are talking about a virus that is becoming less virulent as time passes. A virus that only at its worst, killed around 1% maximum – like flu and we don’t engage in such stupidity over flu. But I save the best for last.
Prof Van-Tam says on global supply of vaccines, public health officials say none of us are safe until we are all safe.
What utter cack. This man is standing on the world stage and spouting this ignorant, stupid, moronic guff. There is no such thing as absolute safety. We will never all be safe. It is not possible. Risk is all around us and covid is not a significant one – indeed, I’m not convinced that it ever was, despite the initial wave of illness and deaths. The black death it wasn’t. But this pandering to the idea that we should all be “safe” is pure ignorance of life and the world at large. If we adopt that approach to everyday living, we wouldn’t get out of bed in the morning and even then might die of malnutrition.
The man is a cretin.
No. I won’t be taking any boosters. I haven’t taken any of their jabs, not worn a stupid mask and not engaged in anti-social distancing and the more they press, the more I’ll resist because resisting is what is needed right now.
When I saw the headline “Three Months” I assumed the post was about how long the “Only for 3 weeks” mask mandate is going to last for…
Do they seriously expect anyone to believe this rubbish? It is laughable – I don’t know how they can read it out and keep a straight face! Oh I forgot, the other one is facing away from the camera!
They clearly don’t care. And why should they, when the Opposition is unelectable?
We have an opposition?
Who are they and what do they stand for?
And a fourth booster in January, I suppose.
“Do they seriously expect anyone to believe this rubbish?”
The problem is that millions do.
“Starting to feel at risk”
I suspect that most actual football players are starting to feel at risk of suffering heart attacks, thanks to the “Jabs” they’ve been coerced into receiving…
Look, we just have to get all the elderly and vulnerable people vaccinated and we can get back to normal.
Erm, actually we need to vaccinate the over 40s as well
Erm, and the over 30s
In fact, all adults
And teenagers
Oh, and children
But once we’ve vaccinated all the babies, then we can get back to normal
If anybody can remember what normal is.
He might want to rethink using football analogies, now that the number of young healthy sportsmen suffering sudden heart attacks is in the hundreds.
And they’re not in he least fazed by putting out this cack.
Only about 60% of compliance with mask wearing this morning in Morrisons. No attempt at any enforcement either.
Sounds much like here in sunny Jockland, where the mandate never ended.
The covid screen is back at the petrol station. FFS!
Sure, but that might be to protect from the militant Buddhist’s with their suicide belts. The COVID screens seemed to have worked well in Liverpool.
I heard something good yesterday on Joe Roagan: the acceptance of the covid restrictions by most people is how cowards react when confronted with adversity.

Unfortunately we are surrounded by idiots
Yup and this pandemic has exposed them. It depresses me.
Yes, depressing indeed. Could the paper only find one person, a student, who regretted going back to masking? I don’t think I believe that. The most depressing was the one who likened Covid to flu and said ‘what’s another jab’ apparently forgetting that we have never worn masks in a futile attempt to stop the spread of flu. A couple of weeks ago Daniel Hannan wrote a piece in the Sunday Telegraph saying he feared that rather tha treating Covid like flu we could end up treating flu like Covid . I fervently hope he is wrong but these pathetic and ill informed responses from the public make you wonder.
