As you agree on point one I’ll answer two and three.
Every single winter the CEV and CV are at risk of getting extremely poorly by viruses. That’s why they are priority for flu jab and then will take their own measured ways to go about their lives.
Also I obviously do understand it’s a highly transmissible virus I’m not dismissing that fact. The fact that you just seem to blindly assume I don’t is quite frankly rude and very telling, coronavirus is a normal virus and is behaving exactly how a virus behaves.
Why are you so scared of it? When every other virus you’ve ever known lives exactly like this.[/quote]
You don’t get it
Point 1, there are MORE people waiting than ever before because of covid
Yes there are viruses each winter, hence the flu jab, this is a NEW virus, ok we have jabs that make delta anyway less transmissible, but they don’t know about omnicrom and how the jabs will or won’t help what they do know is that it’s far more transmissible than delta, that it’s very possible hospital cases will go up, and that this year flu is around, which it wasn’t last year due to lockdowns and SD etc. How many times does the NHS have to say we won’t cope. CEV and CV can’t just hide away, many work, many don’t get paid if off sick, they are not all elderly
Your comments show you don’t understand or you would never have started the post. It’s not that it’s just a virus, it’s the effect that ‘just a virus’ is having across the world including on the NHS, businesses, school kids etc. And letting it rip across the country is not the answer. There’s a very good post up thread from @heldinadream that explains it very well
As to being scared, where have I ever said that? I haven’t, however unlike you I can see the much bigger picture and the massive impact Omnicron could have if we don’t try and stop cases now
As you can’t teach stupid I won’t be engaging with you any more
