Dementors can dement but we'll keep it positive here

Oh yes my favourite FB dementor posted this, they also said that if you wanted lockdown to be lifted you should put the names of 100 friends and family into a bowl and randomly pick out 5 to die. I was tempted to respond as with the number of untested 5 seems a rather high death rate and let's be honest with 92% of deaths being over 70s and other linked factors, it's also not random, but it seems having us in a state of perennial fear to walk the streets is the goal.

Oh good grief - just in case people wake up feeling hopeful eh? Wouldn’t want anyone to experience anything other than terror and misery!

@rookiemere
You should have picked hers 😆

@rookiemere She sounds a ray of sunshine.

@rookiemere have seen the same! I've been sharing how many people are recovering and even that 92, 95 etc are! (It's on social media with permission so no breaches!) No one wants to hear about this!

Ha! I mostly have work people on a social media. I can def think of 5 FB friends I’d choose to die.

Only five????

I really hope the government and pharmas haven’t over egged how close a vaccine is as every dementor in town seems to think that by the end of the year the whole world will be vaccinated, simples

But there are also the dementors who won't be taking a vaccine yet, thank you very much..

Except for the dementors who think a vaccine will be impossible or take years and years.

Well we will ALL need to stay in anyway as NO ONE will want to go near a shop/cafe/garden centre/tip/restaurant again (apart from most people I know!)

I have just realised what is happening. Now that the numbers have turned round and they can no longer dement about bodies in the street they are dementing about other people's fear.

I never understood the “people will be dying in the streets” thing. Why would they be in the street if they were that ill? With Covid you don’t go from well enough to be walking around to dropping dead in a matter of minutes. Were they suggesting that families would be banishing sick members to the streets in a kind of reverse quarantine?

Lovely post on the ICU there!

Reading about this app today in the Times-

"False positives risk gumming up the testing system, while false negatives could give people a false sense of security" Yes

Because it would be highly dramatic to be dying in the streets. maybe that's why the ambulances keep lurking around the park and in town atm.

@rookiemere I replied to a very similar comment and said it was insensitive towards people who had actually had family members die. The post got deleted.

I do think we should start picking the dementors to die when they demand it though. They'd die properly, following THE RULES.

My post was meant to be 92/95 year olds are recovering from it. But that just gets met with 'was probably just flu then' 'but they had a positive test' 'so they'll definitely die in the SECOND WAAVVVVEEE' 👻

Back in January there was a story in the Guardian (and presumably in the other papers too) about some poor chap dropping dead in the street in Wuhan. Dementors love that kind of stuff. Yesterday on here we had refrigerated articulated lorries full of corpses.

After my dad dying in the street, I can still find that funny.

I've been having a good nosy at the interactive map showing deaths by neighbourhood, and by combining the neighbourhoods/ parishes I run through, I can happily report that I have KILLED no more than 7 people from the RECKLESSNESS of touching gates and stiles in those areas
Somehow, I doubt that I was actually responsible for any of those.

Had a great Horrible Histories marathon on iPlayer yesterday. Stupid deaths, stupid deaths.

Well, if they've been following THE RULES but they've still CV they've slipped up, so they deserve to die. Sorry, DESERVE TO DIE. And as such will not take up an ICU bed that could be occupied by someone more worthy and innocent.

Interesting headlines on the Beeb this morning: Woman says coronavirus saved her life, Coronavirus patient 'back from brink of death', Psychosis 'worsens in isolation". It's almost as if they're trying to persuade readers that lockdown can't go on forever and CV isn't a death sentence.

The Dementors will not be pleased.

I've found my people :)

Oh yes library if you get 'the covid' it's because you are not RULE FOLLOWING PROPERLY so therefore you should not be entitled to ANYTHING!! That's the gist of the dementors posting on FB that I see!

I'm so suspicious of how the BBC seems to follow the lead of the gov. Maybe I'm getting paranoid! But when it was about washing hands and singing, it was all 'most cases are mild' and the few sad deaths 'mostly with underlying health conditions' all very reassuring...did wonder at the time if it was maybe a bit too reassuring, anyway...then it swung the other way...

still it's good to hear they are getting a bit more positive in their reporting.
