âwhich probably isnât any worst than the other worst flu years of the last 20 yearsâ
The point was plain. Flippancy comes easily to the callous. If nothing else, the deflationary repetition of âworstâ implies something that occurs periodically in fairly mundane fashion. So does the reference to a 20 year stretch.
Whatever about Covid 19, obtuseness is clearly highly contagious.
Nay be bothering me further. I have plenty of tinfoil in a drawer somewhere.
You are nuts. And karma will come after you, on a pale horse.
I will reply to you as long as you sprout utter horseshit.
You clearly donât understand what immunity is, let alone herd immunity, nor how a vaccine works. I donât have time to educate you, but such information is freely available.
âLong Covidâ. Christ, letâs shut down society for something there is no evidence of because a few people feel tired after contracting a virus. Youâre a rube.
Now fuck off back to Mad Max world, where you can feel macho. The space is really a menâs shed, turpentine and halitosis and body odour. You are a fool, a dangerous fool, one who cannot even parse the difference between death rate and infection rate.
Iâm caught in two minds in whether schools should be shut for longer. Will it decrease the spread of the virus? Yes but the cons I see to it are some parents will have to take time off work. Another con is that the distance learning will not be done by some students despite the best efforts of thr teachers. A 2 week extension of the winter break with a shorter Easter and extra week may be a good solution
Post your evidence of âlong covidâ you clown. Or how about another naff analogy a 6th year would be cringing at? As someone else pointed out, you canât even grasp the meaning of herd immunity.
Shutting the schools is no guarantee of reducing the numbers. Might as well try and let the kids live some kind of life at least while the rest of us patiently await the needle of truth
@Malarkey is sending karma after you because heâs had a few too many whiskeys and canât get his head around little tricky concepts like evidence and reason.
But infection rate doesnât translate to sick or hospitalisation either. Itâs one of the really odd/frustrating/confusing things about this virus that lends itself to fuel âdebatesâ as seen here.
Weâre reporting on average about 1500 cases a day for the last week or so yet ICU numberâs are barely rising. I agree you donât just sit there and watch numberâs climb but going in and out of severe lockdowns surely creates as many problems as answers? Human nature being what it is you also lose an amount of compliance with each lockdown unfortunately. Fuck knows what the answer is but weâre getting a lot of arbitrary rules to our lockdowns about what can open and distance you can travel etc. And itâs leading to much frustration and non compliance⌠Young people really seem done with the whole thing.
