Coronavirus

[V8Druid]

Here is Essex we are in Tier 2
BUT a few larger towns no where near us have the rates of infection going up
The review due on 16th December could see us go into Tier 3

they are going to have to get far more selective with their tier-ing, or folks're just going to ignore it, especially when you have these isolated anomalies forcing entire regions into irrelevant/undeserved tiers

The FDA says Pfizer’s Covid vaccine is safe and effective. But trial participants warn of intense symptoms after second shot

The FDA says the Pfizer Covid vaccine is both safe and effective. CNBC spoke with Pfizer and Moderna trial participants about what side effects you can expect.

So just been chatting to She who knows best about the article as I didn’t understand why you would get symptoms of Covid if it doesn’t contain the virus.
Her explanation is that the symptoms are caused by the immune systems response to the spike protein that the vaccine generates.

The auto immune comments I made before are starting to show with today’s news that the 2 NHS workers with allergies suffered a reaction. The problem is going to be when this is rolled out in the masses that they want to vaccinate. Covid is killing most people due to there immune system over reaction to Corona virus. It is possible that the vaccine will over stimulate the immune system of people that would be most likely to have a severe to the actual virus. Whilst they won’t have Covid, it may well be that the side effects are going effect people that may never have actually caught Covid in the first place. As a doctor this gives her grave concerns about the ethics of injecting everybody. Doctors oath is firstly “do no harm” and the patient must always have the right to refuse.

[Lancs Lad]

Same with Blackburn here...
But are lockdowns working? Rates seem to have gone up during the last one?
Use your own judgement they said yesterday... Yes thanks have been doing that for ages
Lancs has been in lockdown since Aug now....anyone who thinks folk don't do what they thinks best round here is deluded and yet we see London folk moaning about it non stop... Fk it all.

another way to display the data
(adjusted for "cases per population", sweden is screwed)

 

[Smiffy]

Christmas is cancelled for the south east then

 

[Jimoz]

Bring it on. These idiots are still deluded that lockdowns work. If we were all robots and could be locked away with no need for Elec, water or food never mind other essential services and most of all human interaction then maybe they might work. But that's not the case.
I think I live in the area that has probably had the longest lockdown in the world (genuinely). I'm happy the more draconian these restrictions get now in the hope they will encourage political change and normal people to not only ignore but resist them.

 

[craig]

Not to be outdone, the first minister has brought Welsh lock down forward to midnight tonight.
On the plus side, a good excuse for not buying Christmas presents

 

[Jimoz]

Welsh firebreak did the job then...

Tier 4 here. Saving a fortune on Christmas this year.
