Quote: vastman "Yes but that’s the difference now.
A huge upturn in cases but nothing like in terms of death or even hospitalisation.
We are being held back now by pure hypertheticals rather than Boris beloved science.
Truth is we are being held to ransom by people who refused the jab. In many cases a community that was known to be vulnerable. As ever it’s political, Boris knows he will be accused of racism if he states the truth and as ever he lacks the back bone to do so.
The Asian communities in particular were well within their rights to refuse the jab. As indeed were the whites and others who did the same. However it was a risk and it hasn’t paid off, the rest of us shouldn’t have to pay the price.
If that makes me racist in some eyes so be it, but I have two Asian work colleagues and that’s exactly how they feel.'"
Perhaps there should come a point, when everyone had had the opportunity to be vaccinated, that things can open up further and we can get on with living our lives, close to where they were, that, people are told "you had you chance - unlucky".
THE biggest issue for me is that, with the UK being an island, we have utterly failed to control people coming here or returning home from overseas who have the virus and different strains of it.
All we hear is that "The UK is an international hub", which in the middle of a pandemic, it utter, utter nonsense.
Even now, "we" are desperate for everyone to take a foreign holiday - WHY
As for refusal to have the vaccine, there is so much misinformation that some are genuinely concerned and I accept that the "pro vaccine" lobby also withholds some of the negative stuff but, in a crisis, the latter can largely be forgiven.
