I replied to a post that said some people fucking loved lockdown with ‘yeah lazy cunts that didn’t want to work’. I didn’t berate people forced to stay at home. Nobody should have ‘enjoyed’ being locked down though. Nobody should have wanted to be locked down but it was essential. I'll let you off then 1 Link to comment

Its not about 'doing as your told' its about having common sense and empathy for those that are more at risk. Fucking weird that some people still don't get that. It’s a fucking flu, only really a threat to the elderly. Straight from the horses mouth on the video posted earlier. Stop being a blouse 1 Link to comment

Stop being a blouse Ooh the founder of Microsoft said so… who gives a fuck. Even if it was only a threat to the elderly (which it’s not), younger, healthier people could still catch it and pass it on to the elderly… so any measures put in place for everyone to follow should have been followed? 1 Link to comment

Hey if you’d rather have been locked down, unable to see family, go to the pub or go to football matches then fair enough. I didn’t get any enjoyment from lockdowns as would rather have had life carrying on as normal. Each to their own though. Link to comment

I’d have loved it, loved it to have been told to go home for a few weeks . That’s not laziness. That’s just wanting a few weeks off and being paid for it. Pandemic or no pandemic, Stoke City needed that trophy room carpet. Link to comment

Selfishly stocking up on items leaving fuck all for others, folk grassing on their neighbours, nurses filming themselves crying and publishing it on twitter, people doing that ‘wide berth’ thing on the pavement, 5G conspiracists ( the absolute worst of humanity). See folk that just got in with shit (eg me) they are the real Covid heroes. Poor cunt getting blasted for sunbathing in Victoria Park Or getting fined for going paddle boarding in the North sea. Hopefully all the snitches got stitches. Link to comment

I don't see any evidence to support that claim, quite the opposite when you look at the history of viral outbreaks. It's not at all a certainty in the long term. The point I'm making is that as far as viral evolution is concerned, we're still far short of the long term, the wheel is very much still in spin. I'm not a medical expert, I look at it from the epidemiology, as a maths guy. As you suggest, extremely pathogenic strains will tend to die out, because anything that kills its host immediately is not going to be a "successful" virus. There tends to be a fatalities "sweet spot" where the virus is deadly enough to kill certain individuals, but mild enough that large numbers can wander around unaware they're spreading it. For example - Spanish Influenza. Case fatality rate 2-3%. Global death toll 70 million. Bird flu - remember that one, not so long ago? Case fatality rate 60%. Really, really nasty - right up there with Ebola. Global death toll? 456. You get it - you die, noticeably - transmission vector ends there. Unfortunately, COVID started out much nearer to that sweet spot of 2-3%, which is why it's killed more than six million people. The problem we're facing atm is a lot of wishful thinkers presuming that because the currently dominant strain is relatively mild, the whole thing is "over". That simply doesn't follow - and complacency could be very dangerous. A lot of them are the same people who told us it was all fake news in the first place - well, that error has cost hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths globally. 2 Link to comment
