You should have warned about the bad swearing at the outset of the video clip - it doesn’t bother me but I had my two granddaughters with me in the room when I opened it :x

 

[Flyingfifer]

I dont do trigger warnings :idunno:

 

[ronk]

Well you should

I’m asking you politely to put a retrospective warning on your post that contains offensive spoken language.

 

[Deleted member 32480]

I think you two need to hug it out.

His post was overheard by my two granddaughters
4 and 6 years old

Not acceptable in any shape or form.

Doesn’t bother me but a simple NSFW is a forum requirement

A simple request to put a warning to save others .

I’ve had some serious explanations to the girls I can tell you.

 

[Flyingfifer]

I mean personally I wouldn't have played any video in those circumstances never mind one from a public forum but that's me :idunno:

NSFW rules/guidelines dont apply in this case from reading them.

Besides the man is Australian, like the Scots they are basically incapable of speaking without swearing

I was just about to add something but it seems its been done for me... top tier service from the mods

Wonder if the BBC will ever tell these chaps that even when vaccinated they can still catch and pass it on.

Probably a couple of weeks before there are more double vax'd cases of covid than there are vax free.

I was wrong. I said a couple of weeks and it was less than one.

 

[Smartbear]

So? That’s just because there’s a lot less of you, if you catch it you’re much more likely to become seriously ill than a vaccinated person though.

I don't think the young and healthy are "much more likely to become seriously ill" when they aren't very likely to become ill in the 1st place.

But if you have any links, studies or anything to the prove that theory, then I am all eyes and ears.

Agree with what you say there with regards the the over 70's and the immune compromised. Spot on.

You can make figures and graphs say exactly what you want though.

For example, my assumption (Note! Assumption!) would be that as there are many more people vaccinated than not now, and given that we were always told that vaccination would not stop it, merely reduce its impact, then it seems pretty obvious that you would reach a point where more vaccinated than unvaccinated people will test positive.
Let's face it, the best possible outcome would be if every single person in the country caught it asap, but with only minor effects.
Just like the common cold has done for generations.

I agree. I think it would be much better to get it now rather than winter flu season.

With regards to figures I agree but it's hard to fiddle them when it's two binary questions. Have you had a "vaccine" and are you infected.

Completely agree Rob and why I've never being able to get my head around those who deny the vaccine because they think they will be ok and fine if they unfortunately catch it, something you simply can't predict. Whilst being in a younger age bracket seems to help its no guarantee you won't become seriously ill or suffer from long covid. Its like playing russian roulette which ones health, still its their health, just unfortunaley it has a knock on affect for others which can be pretty much avoided.

If I was an unvaccinated person at this moment it time considering all restrictions being lifted tomorrow I would be quite worried and in many ways you're going to stay in a a kind of twilight world or just risk it and hope for the best. I certainly don't think your average Joe in the street will continue with the masking, social distancing, cleanliness etc after tomorrow, all that will simply go out the window next week.

Will be interesting to see what pans out over the next 2 months with positive cases shooting up and hospitilisations slowly creeping up albeight slowly.

Not saying it is fiddled, just pointing out that, as time goes on the answers to both will increase positively, meaning that that the orange line on the graph will continue to move away rom the blue one. Tbh it's a logical outcome that didn't really need the expense of a survey.

How? What will the "knock on affect" be?

Simple, by everyone accepting the vaccine, it won't stop it spreading but those that catch it will most likely have far less symptoms resulting in hospilisation and death. The knock on affect is the unvaccinated.

But an unvaccinated 20 something has a better chance of survival than a double jabbed 80 something.....

True to a point but that is simply not a guarantee, I guess we will find out.

I’d like to see the same graph but with the orange line displaying data for fully vaccinated people instead of just one jab.

This is a serious question, the long covid that you mention, can you only get this if you are unvaccinated or can you also get this if you are vaccinated?
