    I’m still waiting on the answer to why the people like me the so called pandemic of the unvaccinated didn’t die off when they pulled testing face masks gatherings…….

    let’s be honest here the figures were huge during the testing phase yet most people were only playing the game to get time off work I knew that at the time throughout because I observe actions by them around me and if most are truthful they would admit they played a part in the figures happily banded about by the end times news bulletins

    I'd say that was pretty obvious from the word go.

    Unfortunately, large chunks of the world seized an opportunity to down tools and expected everyone else to go with them.

    Common sense seems to evade out government unfortunately.

    Agree, but the opposition were pushing them for lockdowns before they even did it.

    They all wanted it. Baffling.

    not baffling from my perspective….everyone was in the right position this time which was one place they failed to achieve during the last attempt at ripping up the Nuremberg treaty

    How do you just lockdown the vulnerable? They're not an isolated group. Covid critically affected those with respiratory conditions and weakened immune systems or heart conditions.

    There are nearly 6 million ppl with asthma alone in the UK. About 300,000 with active cancer. 7 million with coronary disease.

    That's someone's father, mother, son, daughter, husband, wife, partner living together in households with those who were fit and healthy so supposedly should've been out without a care in the world.

    There's a lot I've criticised the government for, and it's easy to say we should've just lockdown the vulnerable but in reality it would've been an even bigger joke, and completely unworkable. The governments (not just here but in most countries) had to do a blanket lockdown.

    How it was managed probably deserves the scrutiny, not the who.

    I think it's a lot more sensible than what happened. Care homes and wards is self explanatory. You then give people with asthma or any other condition the choice of working from home and minimising contact. Prioritise deliveries for people who need them. Better to try and control certain groups than just lock down everyone.

    I think you missed the part about those vulnerable ppl being part of households with perfectly fit and healthy people. The very same fit and healthy ppl that should be allowed to go out and mingle then come home and pass the virus onto their vulnerable spouse or children or parents.

    Unless you think the 13 million I mentioned (and that's just 3 areas of covid vulnerability) all live together?

    I can't see where the sensible part is, or where the control would be, or how it's been thought through tbh.

    covid or no Covid there’s always someone in a vulnerable health situation where they need a sterile environment yet I don’t see the care for them now from the same people that claim they did it to protect the vulnerable bollox

    let’s be honest you stayed off because you got paid and if we’re a little bit more truthful you tested constantly so you could have some extras off without it questioned

    I don't have all the answers but locking down everyone didn't work so maybe formulate a plan and consider all the options before jumping in with total lockdown. There could well have been an option that would have made the whole situation better for everyone but they were too busy looking at how they could make money from it all while not listening to their own rules and regulations to consider it.

    Oh and eat out to help out! Wtaf?

    I didn't stay off. Worked throughout.

    Neither of us know if ppl stayed off for any other reason than their place of work was closed. I wouldn't want to assume anything.

    Love working from home, probably the only good thing to come out of all this. Tbh though I think it brought forward something that was always going to happen anyway. The only people struggling with it is those in power as they feel they have less control.
