:covid_19: 😷 šŸ„ Corona Virus the thread for all your fears ā“

This pinging thing got us this week - lost the entire IT dept - not a issue from them logging in, but no boots on the ground to do the physical stuff. Now I have to do it whilst being instructed by face time ā€œTake out that wire, no that oneā€ FFS

No, because they are sensationalist cunts

Seriously?, there must be a fuckton of them then.

Ooh, there are tickets available for Lords Sunday, could take Grandkids.
Wembley, Covid, says Daughter may not be allowed to fly home.
Bugger not going

I’m probably missing out on a paid trip to the US unless Biden makes some sort of announcement.

It’s fucking unplayable. If I wanted to do it I’d need to fuck off to Mexico or Cuba for 14 days before transferring in. Can’t afford the time out, much as I’d love it.

Covid cases have fallen back this week

Ah, no…

Tbf that was yesterday- today’s cases dropped below 40k - 8k less than last week

Poland already announced schools wont reopen in September
Delta variant is now being used - 4th wave will close us down again unless you get vexed
:man_facepalming:

Well last week there were restrictions…this week we’ve had a free for all…I’m not hopeful. :neutral_face:

What a difference a week makes. Was out at ASDA today and mask wearers were a minority

Tbf a couple of weeks ago we had the football - that was always going to put pressure on the numbers

Went to Sainsbury’s today and virtually everyone was wearing a mask. Not sure if you can read anything into that though.

On my occasional trips to Tesco I have been very disappointed, and somewhat worried.
Even before requirements were done away with, I observed older people (50 upwards) religiously cleaning their trolleys, wearing masks and hand sanitising, while younger folk (say 25 to 49) just don’t do any of this.
Don’t they read the statistics which show the majority of cases here are people of their age group?
Stupid people - they are tomorrow’s sick people, but they put us all at risk if they get sick and allow this virus to mutate again.
They are all cunts.

Lol

Making up policy as they go along :roll_eyes::man_facepalming:

And in other news, staff shortages are not widespread :roll_eyes:

They could do nothing and just let it play out

Which seems like what they want to do but face a backlash and then back track every single time. Good? Bad? I dunno, I’m not an expert on what Covid will do to the population if left unchecked - I fall into the cautious group though so naturally don’t agree with the open up everything now and sod the restrictions argument which seems to be the mantra of ā€œleadersā€ of some businesses and Conservatives.
