I'm now told I should have a flu vaccine to minimise the risk of flu and CV19 combined

I'm getting so ****** off with it I'm starting to think if I saw a poster , CV19 injections , take your chances I might give it a go

Just read this online

I make no comments on the political motivation, but point 6 seems a little suspect according to the paper this morning.

The rest of the data I'm rather broadly supportive of. It's rather nice to hear another voice (apart from Carl Henghan and Suneta Gupta) challenging some of the assumptions.

If Covid-19 statistics and government messages were consistent people might have more faith in them. As it is, I think that folk are fed up not only with the pandemic itself but also with certain people spouting any old nonsense for their own ends.

Personally I think if people weren't behaving like kids and being smug about the logical edge cases and carping about them on social media, then complaining that the measures (which they delight in picking holes in) don't work <breathe> then results would be a lot better.

NB I am not suggesting that you are one of those, @Phil H , just making a statement on my observations on social media and behaviour in the real world. Legal disclaimer: Other opinions are available and my perception does not equal your reality.

Now C here:

The only participation I have in social media is this forum; I'm not on Facebook, Instagram, or any others so they don't contribute to my views.
I am old enough and wise enough to treat other media with caution, as I do politicians.
In short, I don't believe everything I'm supposed to!

That said, I know from personal experience the stupidity of Covid naysayers who risk not only their own health but that of others. IMHO there is sufficient legislation in place to deal with them if the will is there to do so on the part of the authorities but all too often the will seems to be lacking, and mixed messages from politicians don't help one iota.

WRT to my being the only Phil on the forum you know that I'm not. I do claim, though, to be the first having joined the forum in the first week (or maybe the second) when I was so much younger and a little more sane; luckily my good looks and charisma remain with me, although after so many years of Maserati ownership the bank balance is somewhat depleted.

Take care mate and keep safe.

Though we would try a quick pint after work - having been stuck in a non ventilated floor all day with 50 plus builders who I have no idea where they come from or how they live - 5 of us went to the pub

you must wear a mask when walking to table - you can remove it when seated

you must wear a mask if you need a pee

you must wear a mask when you leave and walk past the people you have been sitting next to for an hour

you cannot walk out the same door you walked in - so must walk past loads more people to get out

the group of 5 sitting at a table for 4 people is a hanging offence

I won’t bother again

OK, @Phil H my attempt at de-barbing my comments have failed, for which I apologise. No offence was intended, but I recognised the possibility that it might happen anyway, and did not take sufficient steps.

My post was very much not aimed at you, your post simply triggered my reaction. No more, no less.

As for the Phil, I was actually seeking to suggest that @philw696 was 'one Phill too many' and in no way meant to suggest that you were (a Phil too many)

My unreserved apologies for any offence.

Phils and thrills and belly-aches.

I'm not a Phil but I'd also like to be offended. Must I make an appointment, or can I just turn up?

Hey C, no apology is needed as my hide has thickened with age (you really don't want to witness it - no honestly it's not a pretty sight) and it would take more than a bit of banter to pierce it.

Phils and thrills and belly-aches.

There is a fee......

Well, you're a regular users of our services, so you can simply turn up if you want to partake of the FOAAS located here:

https://foaas.com/back/:Adam/:Chris

Or, if you want a more detailed offence, we can make an appointment early next week ;)
