Re: The Coronavirus Thread
I've used all the others. Small case delta was actually typed out in many experimentals. I have never even seen Omicron in text.https://esapolitics.blogspot.com

Said Peter...what you're requesting just isn't my bag
Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late
Turn stone to bread, said Daemon Duncetan
Turn stone to bread right away...

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Over the past week, I've been showing the printed version of my vaccination certificate a lot. Bars, cafes, restaurants, even our local Bunnings hardware store. The requirement doesn't worry me a bit...

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
I know that it has echoes of a police state, but there are rational reasons for such systems at the moment. However, there must be a grandfather clause - QR codes, vaccine certification for the general public (as opposed to health workers, for example) must finish sometime next year...

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
It's not 'echoes', it's a full blown police state kind of measure... there are still a few people here who remember how hearing a German demanding 'Ausweis' could be the last word you heard as a free person if your damn papers were not to his taste.JimC wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 4:17 amI know that it has echoes of a police state, but there are rational reasons for such systems at the moment.

Omicron not worse than delta. So far it is milder.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Some data suggests that this Omicron variant emerged in Europe in late summer, not in Africa. That would mean that it is potentially not more infectious than Delta.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
UK govt rejects disquiet from it's own benches that wearing a mask on a bus is a "gateway to lockdown over Christmas," as well as pooh-poohing independent public health advice for people to scale back socialising over the Xmas period. Basically, Xmas isn't going to be cancelled no matter how much those looney leftwing dictators bleat about it!

I suppose I'll occupy a lower circle of hell for continuing to enjoy a slight frisson of grim satisfaction from these stories. I'm a bad person.
