Itâs this sort of ageist bile that has us in the mess weâre in. You need to stop discriminating against that group of people whose median age is 82. They have just as much right as the next person to go out and build a house, start a family, etc.
Really? It seems to me that cat is misreading her own figures? It looks to me like her figures are a cumulative total? Not 7 in one week. That seems utterly bizarre. What do you think?
The following scenario seems as plausible to me as any. That Ryan came into contact with Covid, and tested positive, but the vaccine induced antibodies inside him neutralised the virus in him almost immediately, hence a negative test the day afterwards.
I would never try to take that from you. You walked that road, and only you. Nothing I ever say on this matter is an attempt to demean or detract from what you went through.
There is. Itâs called data. People succumbing to this virus are by and large, very old (i.e. already past the average life expectancy) or they are very sick (i.e. they had comorbidities). The ones that do not meet those tests are what are known as outliers. They are the exceptions to the rule.
I can go along with that. You would also have to accept, however, that there is very strong evidence out there to suggest that the worldwide Covid case rates and recovery rates have also been massively underplayed. It is all relative.
The governmentâs continuing response to Covid will make sure that there is a much worse health service for all. Whether itâs missed diagnoses of very serious illnesses like cancer, or young babies being diagnosed with tonsilitis by doctors but being sent for swabs before a prescription is handed over, the health service is an unmitigated shit-show.
Edited my above post. Even if she is including 18 and 19 year olds. Iâd like to know where the figures are from though.
I canât interrogate her cos Iâm not on twitter. Are you by any chance? Could you ask her?
