Confusion of VIs Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 6 hours ago, Mikhail Liebenstein said: This is kind of back to my Darwinian point, over time we can damage the collective population by enhancing the survivability of traits we might not desire. That said, if all the new entrants are over 50 and less likely to have kids, then the trait will only get passed on a more latent form. But I guess a younger person has more time to fix their diet and exercise routine, which could hide / prevent a predisposition. By the logic expressed in your posts, those fat, idle and junk food eating kids are actually driving forward the creation of a fitter stronger race. Selflessly weeding out genetic weaknesses that continue to be propagated by their skinny gym bunny wholefood eating peers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In its apparent 'cutting corners' plans to admister single doses only and delay second doses. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jan/19/single-covid-vaccine-dose-in-israel-less-effective-than-we-hoped Its about time this government were more cautious. I'd be mad if I'd consented to taking the 1st dose on the agreement that the 2nd dose would be given within the timeline of 21 days, as per the trial study of the vaccine supplier. Then the government decided to delay it, and my 2nd appointment then cancelled. (as we have heard has been happening). As already mentioned on here, the government may even mix and max vaccines, again not recommended by their trial study. Does anyone know if the UK is the only country doing this?

ticket2ride Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 (edited) 8 hours ago, Peter Hun said: Priti Patel says government should have closed borders last March to stop coronavirus Home Secretary says she wanted to close borders last year but appears to suggest she was overruled https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/priti-patel-close-borders-coronavirus-travel-b1789926.html So she's not entirely stupid after all. It was reported back in March that the Home Secretary wanted to close the borders. This must be a case of ideology over ruling logic. Remainers would generally be opposed to closing borders because free movement. And Brexiters wouldn't want to close borders because it would show that we could control them if we wanted. Maybe that's why they've waited till now. Edited January 20 by ticket2ride Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Northern Ireland had 22 deaths today.. https://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/health/coronavirus-northern-ireland-22-further-19663656 Scotland had 92 deaths today... https://www.gov.scot/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-daily-data-for-scotland/ Wales had 44 deaths today... https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/coronavirus-infection-rates-cases-wales-19662688 Not sure of the figures, but even taking into account population, isn't a death rate of 1662 for England very high compared to the others?

Even if it carried on at that level for a year, that is only 664,300, which is less than 1% of the population. If the population replacement rate matched the death rate for a duration, and people only died of COVID, the average age of death would be 100. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank God for all the armchair epidemiologists and denialists on here who know better. Apparently we can end lockdown completely. Everyone can go around licking each other as a celebration. Not only that but docs and nurses will be able to put their feet up, maybe puff away on a few cigars. Ending lockdown somehow frees the hospital beds and the NHS will be at it's lowest patent numbers in it's entire history. You can't beat getting your expert Covid facts from HPC.

I wouldn't. MonsierCopperCrutch should though. Not that this hasn't been mentioned here before: Animal testing (virus challenge) phase was skipped on these mRNA vaccines and past studies of mRNA vaccines didn't get past the animal testing phase.
