....when only 20-22% of people even have any symptoms?

I suspect for the under 30s it's closer to 1%, no wonder they are having their shindigs.

I'm in a high risk group, I'll take my chances, lets get back to normal.

[iluvmargie]

Hear hear TTT.

[Old_Geezer]

National leaders failing to think for themselves and wanting to show they go as far or further than the others do. National leaders need to be more courageous and use some "common sense" rather than be followers of other leaders.

[1ozzy]

Lets forget the multitude that have died and those that are suffering.
Party on, until you suffer yourself, then maybe a change of heart may happen.

[ToraToraTora]

what part of "I'll take my chances" is confusing to you 1ozzy?

[Old_Geezer]

If one catches a dose, then, that's life. Need to accept and get on.

[1ozzy]

The part that you will quite possibly infect someone else TTT.
Is that difficult for you to understand?

[Cloverjo]

It’s not often I agree with TTT, but I do here.
A minuscule percentage of this country and the world has been affected physically by C19. Of course every death is very sad but there will be many more unnecessary deaths if we don’t just get on with life.

[ToraToraTora]

1ozzy, if I get it I'll isolate, simples, the "cure" is considerably worse than the disease. How many deaths will result from a world wide depression? The world economy is being deliberately run over a cliff at the behest of 1 dimensional experts and politicians terrified of being accused of doing the wrong thing.

[Old_Geezer]

And if they haven't protected themselves and catch it then that was the chance they took. Same as with any virus. Is that difficult for you to understand ?

[bobbinwales]

Its because over a million have died in six months. Its trashing it for a short period to slow the spread and stop million's more death's and million's off work ill with corona symtoms.. And peopel who have it without symtoms can infect others who can die or be seriosly ill. Hopefuly it will slowdown and a vacine will help thing's get back to normal and are economies can recover.
But who know's- in a year if its still spreading and theres no vacine goverments accross the world might decide that we just have to axcept a few million extra deaths a year which might help keep the worlds population which is to big to a more managable level

[ToraToraTora]

if people are worried, isolate, if you get it isolate, let the rest of the world get on.

[ToraToraTora]

"And peopel who have it without symptoms can infect others " - no easily, it's spread by coughing and sneezing if there are no symptoms they'll only spread it via surfaces and hand to mouth which is very difficult.

[dave50]

Who will be the first politician to put their head above the parapet and admit we need to get on with life and the vulnerable to isolate themselves. Don't hold your breath, they would rather carry on destroying the economy than, heaven forbid, admit they might be wrong.

[bobbinwales]

in the flue season peopel cough, sneeze and anyway peopel spray droplets from there mouth when ever the laugh or talk or shout specialy after a few beer's

// what part of "I'll take my chances" is confusing to you 1ozzy?//

the bit where you ignore the possibility that you will infect others and kill them(*)

(*) sozza NJ - he doesnt like that - - - what about "and people die from something and test positive for the cause"

typical AB - "look at me everyone, I dont have a different moronic idea - I just repeat what I said yesterday"

[youngmafbog]

Typical AB, PP pops up to call someone names he disagrees with.

[youngmafbog]

The problem lies with the mad scientists who are well paid and feel no pain from this. Indeed in the case of the 600k of GSK stock Vallance stands to make a few bob.

Couple this with the Covid worshipers who simply wont look outside the propaganda and you have the situation we are in.

In addition it seems to me the sneak Hancock is enjoying this too control too much. He will not want to give that up hence stoking up the fear with bogus data.

Unfortunately Johnson has lost the plot. He needs to be removed.

[youngmafbog]

"Who will be the first politician to put their head above the parapet and admit we need to get on with life"

Well that is starting to happen. Tory MP's are not happy with the way the diktats are issued with no Parliamentary debate. Also a mayor only yesterday stood up and said it was all rowlocks.

[Zacs-Master]

Oh well if 'a mayor' said it, it must be true!
