Cancel those parties.

Boris can't cancel my Christmas.

He is fop-haired chancer who may be running out of luck.

[Sir Tigger KC]

The 'experts' reckon that thanks to Omicon there will be over 1000 hospitalisations a day in the New Year. 

These are the same 'experts' that predicted disaster if and when all the restrictions were dropped back in July.   

100,000-200,000 cases a day I think they said?

Had ours today , well met up with some friends for pre Xmas meal & drinks at a great country pub got another planned next week at the same place, so Boris can go f**k himself, ( in fact he probably already has)

Johnson, Whitty, and Vallance were suitably apocalyptic in their appraisal.

Anyone know the current number of fatalities from the Omicron strain.

[dave the builder]

Boris is implementing "plan B"
pity his mum didn't do the same

His mum and her sisters are not to be messed with.

Conveniently not.

I only had time to watch the first 10 mins, so far, and I found one statistic very interesting. Out of the hospitalised patients in SA with covid, the vast majority were 'incidental'. In other words, they were not hospitalised because of covid, but found to have covid when routinely tested. I wonder if this kind of patient is included in the figures released daily over here. If so, if would really skew the numbers.

Bigger picture is that the new variant is still an unknown quantity. Early signs suggest it could be pretty mild in comparison with previous variants, but its too early to tell yet, so we need to err on the side of caution until the picture becomes clear.
If that means wearing a mask, so be it. If you wont / cant wear a mask, dont go out and breathe over everyone else.
Its possible you might kill them without even knowing youve done it.
The word doesnt revolve around you and you alone.

Simply carry on being sensible , if you are someone who doesn't care or believe hope your demise is swift.

We in Andalucia have been sitting pretty , with the lowest infection rate in Europe.

However Malaga gave us all a shock when the hospital had a xmas party lunch for 173 and at least 70 later tested positive. A lot of the 70 in isolation werethe ICU staff.  Raises numerous questions. Needless to say other hospitals have split their does up into smaller groups or have cancelled them.

We will be having our lockdowns at Easter when sun starved North Europeans will be coming out of theirs and looking for a beach holiday!

I suspect that they are, after all they've long included numbers of people who have Covid but died from unrelated things.
