    My personal viewpoints are a different thing to linking to stuff because it coincides with my views as though it carries weight. Matt Le Tissier.<laugh>

    I guess I’ll have to wait until I become a miserable retired old **** like yourself before I can give an opinion that will be FACTUALLY considered an expert one.

    I do know about arrhythmia being caused by a "cardiac event" as they put it as I had the same some years ago. Now everything is connected to covid jabs, even when the people haven't had them, and some dim folk believe any crap spouted by non medical people.
    Thinking of changing my car. Must consult my doctor for his opinion on the best one to get.

    I agree that having the vaccine shouldn’t be mandatory but we are getting to a point where normality needs to return & the quickest way to this is though a vaccination programme.

    Nobody has said the vaccine will eradicate the virus but it will subdue it & minimise the risk to an extent that we can continue with our lives. We can’t eradicate influenza but we keep a lid on it spiralling out of control via an annual vaccination programme that subdues it & minimises the risks.

    You’re correct that vaccinated people can pass it on but to a much lesser degree than unvaccinated people. The symptoms are also a lot less severe once vaccinated.

    There is no valid argument why people, who are able to, should not be vaccinated.

    If I ever suffer from arrhythmia issues you can be assured, despite your self proclaimed knowledge, that I think I’d seriously swerve your advice, no offence.

    As regards changing your car, please never darken my doorstep, I envisage you being an absolute nightmare, before, during and after the sale. In saying all of that I consider myself safe as we don’t sell motability scooters <ok>

    I didn't say I had arrhythmia knowledge. I said from experience that it can be caused by a cardiac event. Something I discovered by accident when a scan for something else showed it up. Didn't know I had suffered from one. When they found that out they changed my medication and improved it no end. Nowadays it would no doubt be blamed on covid vaccinations.
    Don't worry, I won't be coming to your garage. My doctor told me the cars at your garage aren't very good and gave me some better ones to go to.

    A week ago the numbers were on the rolling footer of both SKY and the BBC at around 5ish each day that's stopped. A google search would pull up newspaper reports giving the numbers.

    A google search now shows reports from days ago (1 on the first page is a BBC story from the 13th Dec) , if only I could do a screenshot. Yes you are right that there are government sites and these are blended into the google search page often these show that they are in PDF form which turns out to be pages and pages of stats, tables and graphs. It was one of these where i got yesterdays figures. My point being it is not as easy as it was a week ago

    In case anyone was wondering why scientists aren't generally sharing the same optimism as the right wing papers this morning about these figures on lower severity of Omicron, it's worth reading this thread on Twitter ...
