I do like food, drink and a bit of environmental graft whilst walking my dogs.

Keeps me fit.

I mean, what kind of **** throws a barrel of oil in a beautiful burn?

Keeping on topic.
I've had a tickly cough since last week when we were sent home as one of our team leaders was diagnosed with covid.

I'm not concerned, should I be?


Stuff an old mattress in that oil drum, set it on fire, and it’ll make a handy “potato oven” for jacket spuds.

You probably have pneumonia from climbing about in that river btw.

They just moved her to a non-clinical part of the hospital so she’s managed to work all the way through. Certainly wouldn’t have thought she’d be classed as ‘extremely vulnerable’, but suppose you’ve got to trust the science dudes.

Well I am pleased they are taking care of her.

Interesting that she only had a few days to option the vaccine and then back of queue.
 
My Dad came off the ventilator on Friday, he's making small progress every day. He's still not out of the woods as apparently some patients have been known to go downhill again rapidly. He's doing well, though. He's back on the oxygen and he's currently getting 80%, I think. That's come down since Sunday. I'm away down to Liverpool to stay with him and look after him when he gets out. We both live by ourselves anyway so it makes sense. If it turns into a long term thing then I guess I'll have to rent this place out. It's all guesswork, at the moment. I can't even look at the medium or long term, just every day as it comes but it's been pretty dramatic.

Then I'll deal with, Les.
 
How was Mo Salah allowed to travel back to the U.K. when he tested positive for Covid? Am I imagining that this happened?

Great news mate, hope he continues his recovery and gets back on his feet soon.

He was asymptomatic and flew by private jet I imagine.

I feel weirdly sorry for her! This is what happens when you spend too long in an online world watching brainrot videos insisting you can proclaim yourself a free man of the land... without realising that eventually the real world is going to hit you with a court summons.

<rofl>

That is good news. Hope his progress continues and you are coping OK and looking after yourself too.
 
The vaccine wouldn't get lashed out to a significant percentage of the world's population if it wasn't safe. Imagine the ****ing law suits <ok>

Saw an interview with one of the lead scientists at Oxford Uni who worked on their Vaccine. When asked about the speed at which the vaccine was produced, she explained that usually, the process takes so long because each stage has to go through a funding criteria which attracts reams of red tape and slows the whole process down. She then went on to explain that because Govt had thrown tons of cash at them to develop a vaccine, they could bypass that entire process and just get on with the science.

The actual testing, efficacy and safety tests have taken exactly the same amount of time as another vaccine that might have taken 10 years to get to the market.
 
In another blow to the anti-vaxers/5G/Bill Gates crew. AstraZeneca, the pharma corp working with Oxford Uni on their vaccine have said that they well sell their vaccine to countries in the developing world at cost price and not for profit <ok>

however under that scenario the initial group of vaccines may have been given years earlier which allows for an effect that takes a long time to make itself known though suspect this is less of a risk than new drugs .
