 Quoting: Cock Goblin


Yeah Boris fucked up bad. He needed a excuse to shutdown before Christmas despite earlier promises, It seems they used this "new" strain (which isn't really new) and the claim that it's more virulent (Contagious, the claim is supported only by case numbers to my knowledge) to do just that. The backlash has been a bit more fierce then I hope they expected, cause they hastened a no-deal Brexit worst case scenario with these shenanigan's.

Let me be clear I am casting doubt on the 70% more virulent claim because it is politically beneficial as a excuse I haven't seen anything to make me think it's actually true though it could be. Even then the amount of speculation is excessive.
 Quoting: Dutchy20


I think that's a bit of a stretch because you'd have to say the group of scientists advising gov are all in on that conspiracy as well. They've said there is very, very strong correlation with the new strain and rapid increase of cases. Rapid increase has coincided with at the exact moment as the new strain has become more dominant.

Not just London/South-east England either. South Wales is seeing the explosion in cases as well at the same time the new strain has become dominant there. Other areas of the UK where the new strain isn't dominant aren't seeing an explosion of cases.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79041524


-Nods- I agree with all you are saying, that said we found the said variant in The Netherlands as well and have seen a similar increase in cases. The US has also seen a increase in cases following thanksgiving. Temperatures are colder in all three locations. I'm hard pressed to put it all down to a new mutation that is X% more virulent. I'm sure there is substance to the claim but it's being overhyped and oversold.
 Quoting: Dutchy20


Interesting thing is during the lockdown last month cases went down in all the areas except where the mutated strain was spreading. So I don't think the increase can be put down to any poor adherence to the lockdown rules.

Once again, I agree. It's hard not to. If you have the data please share it, the charts make things more clear. That said, I've not seen a quicker then usual spread in the data I have reviewed (If you have it please share). Locally it can be more defined then over national figures but we have seen the same with the unmated virus.

I don't doubt it's more virulent, and the fact it is gaining prevalence underwrites that. If it's significant is still a question.

Shit runs down hill

If you've got apartments, even just ONE house uphill from you?

Your place will fill with their shit.

They DO make a "One Way" Shit valve. Better hope you septic has one !

If you have an apartment building, or housing "Complex' uphill from you?

Better Install a fukking valve, or better a Shut Off !

Removed above qoute's, follow through to read.

There will never again be a protection from catching this bug. The mindset of this will have go through the population and kill those weak to it has ensured that. The mindless ignorance that this thing will not go away and at some point those that made that choice will become weak to this and die from it seems lost on most.

The vaccines are great, but it's to little to late. We, as a species, will have to explain why grammy died because we couldn't sit on the couch for a month or two.

 Quoting: Texan Buckeye



Oh, TB, that makes me so sad. Lifting you up in prayer, friend. hf
 Quoting: Serenity Now


It goes in spurts. I try to stay really busy, so I don't have time to remember right now. We've lost 3 parents in 3 years. That doesn't count all the extended family and friends...before Covid. It's just that time of life, I guess. We're lucky we had them all for as long as we did. My grandparents didn't have their parents. They passed before we were born. My mom barely remembered her own grandparents. My dad was a little luckier. His grandmother passed when I was in high school.

Anyway, thanks hon. I really appreciate it. I'm a bit bah humbuggy today. No sun today and it doesn't feel the least like Christmas. The give away thread was fun, but it's over. Is it January yet? I'm ready. I'm going to hibernate.
 Quoting: Texan Buckeye


I haven't "celebrated" Christmas since 1998. My little girl was 5. We never had another Christmas. I hate this time of year with the heat of a thousand suns. And even to this day I can't watch a movie or a TV show involving a man and his daughter without ending up in a fetal position. Some days I can control it better than others, but it never really goes away.

So I get it. When it cuts that deep, feeling nothing is better. You be as humbuggy as you want to be. You don't owe anyone the facade of enjoying the holiday.

I wish you the best, TB. Just wanted you to know I really do understand.
 Quoting: Riff-Raff

Either way..... all we have left is our HUMOUR!

Your a silly American, It's spelled Humor.
 Quoting: Dutchy20


Actually - you are incorrect.
Humor is the popular American spelling.
Humour is the popular British spelling.
Both are correct and accepted.

Also, it is “You’re”, as in “You are” not “Your”, as if possessive.

-Hides and withers in shame- Gj on the research!
 Quoting: Dutchy20


Lol!
I wasn’t paying attention and thought the comment was from an AC!
I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be such a prick.
However, now that I think about it - you school me on the numbers all the time. So I’m glad I got one!

They Locked Down England

 Quoting: Cock Goblin


Yeah Boris fucked up bad. He needed a excuse to shutdown before Christmas despite earlier promises, It seems they used this "new" strain (which isn't really new) and the claim that it's more virulent (Contagious, the claim is supported only by case numbers to my knowledge) to do just that. The backlash has been a bit more fierce then I hope they expected, cause they hastened a no-deal Brexit worst case scenario with these shenanigan's.

Let me be clear I am casting doubt on the 70% more virulent claim because it is politically beneficial as a excuse I haven't seen anything to make me think it's actually true though it could be. Even then the amount of speculation is excessive.
 Quoting: Dutchy20


I think that's a bit of a stretch because you'd have to say the group of scientists advising gov are all in on that conspiracy as well. They've said there is very, very strong correlation with the new strain and rapid increase of cases. Rapid increase has coincided with at the exact moment as the new strain has become more dominant.

Not just London/South-east England either. South Wales is seeing the explosion in cases as well at the same time the new strain has become dominant there. Other areas of the UK where the new strain isn't dominant aren't seeing an explosion of cases.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79041524


-Nods- I agree with all you are saying, that said we found the said variant in The Netherlands as well and have seen a similar increase in cases. The US has also seen a increase in cases following thanksgiving. Temperatures are colder in all three locations. I'm hard pressed to put it all down to a new mutation that is X% more virulent. I'm sure there is substance to the claim but it's being overhyped and oversold.

Well it's never as advertised

Oh, TB, that makes me so sad. Lifting you up in prayer, friend. hf
 Quoting: Serenity Now


It goes in spurts. I try to stay really busy, so I don't have time to remember right now. We've lost 3 parents in 3 years. That doesn't count all the extended family and friends...before Covid. It's just that time of life, I guess. We're lucky we had them all for as long as we did. My grandparents didn't have their parents. They passed before we were born. My mom barely remembered her own grandparents. My dad was a little luckier. His grandmother passed when I was in high school.

Anyway, thanks hon. I really appreciate it. I'm a bit bah humbuggy today. No sun today and it doesn't feel the least like Christmas. The give away thread was fun, but it's over. Is it January yet? I'm ready. I'm going to hibernate.
 Quoting: Texan Buckeye


I haven't "celebrated" Christmas since 1998. My little girl was 5. We never had another Christmas. I hate this time of year with the heat of a thousand suns. And even to this day I can't watch a movie or a TV show involving a man and his daughter without ending up in a fetal position. Some days I can control it better than others, but it never really goes away.

So I get it. When it cuts that deep, feeling nothing is better. You be as humbuggy as you want to be. You don't owe anyone the facade of enjoying the holiday.

I wish you the best, TB. Just wanted you to know I really do understand.
 Quoting: Riff-Raff



Jesus Christ, Riff Raff. I have no words. I thought you just didn't have kids, like me.

I am praying for you with all of my heart that you will get through this week with as little pain as possible.
 Quoting: Serenity Now


I am sorry for your loss. Sorry doesn't really express how I feel, but it will have to do.

When an opportunity presents itself just like infamous Lying Australian Pizza Shop Worker.

Opportunity or not - make the data public.

Scientists, MPs Ask "Where Is Evidence Of 70% More Contagious Mutant COVID?"

Transparency yes. Given the "plunge" in stocks (Nasdaq is down less than 1%) But not for that reason. I really want to know what their numbers are based on, purely on their spread is not god enough.

Yep, sos, I could barely type that, the tears were flowing so much. We are here for you, Riff Raff.

Thank you, sos, for your nice words to me last night! I think we will be able to get on a military flight on February 5! Fingers crossed. I will definitely keep everyone updated.

Bastetcat, you always post about five minutes after I go to bed! Thank you so much for your kind comments. I will still be here on GLP....just in a different time zone! You can't get rid of me that easily! "Greenland" was a good doom movie, but it might not be for you.....I think you need to watch funny things!

I love all of you guys more than my luggage. [Steel Magnolias]
