    Look at any hospitals admissions graph and you see normal seasonal upswing within normal parameters. You just want to plant a Covid flag in everything.

    Staffing? That’s another issue.....back to the dodgy PCR test sidelining people.

    I am concerned Cal, you’re starting to wiggle in-sync with Tom and both losing your rag too. Are the two of you period-syncing?

    Yes they do. As it says in the article you linked:

    Mass testing of people without covid-19 symptoms is “not an accurate way of screening the general population,” a senior figure at the Department of Health and Social Care has said in a letter seen by The BMJ(see Related content).

    The comments were made by James Bethell, one of England’s health ministers, in response to a letter from an MP raising concerns about blanket polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing on behalf of a constituent.

    In his letter Bethell stated that “swab testing people with no symptoms is not an accurate way of screening the general population, as there is a real risk of giving false reassurance.” He added, “Widespread asymptomatic testing could undermine the value of testing, as there is a risk of giving misleading results. Rather, only people with covid-19 symptoms should get tested.”

    So the key is to limit use of PCR tests for those with symptoms, in which case the risk of error is much less.

    So if the testing is wrong that the stats are based on?
    BTW it’s hard to find anyone in this neck of the woods who believes any of the figures/stats pumped out by government and media regarding Covid,especially the death and infection rates.
    There are lies,damn lies and then there’s statistics.

    The truly sad thing is a childlike faith in politicians who have suspended centuries old freedoms in an improbable attempt to suppress a respiratory virus. You might as well try nailing a blancmange to a wall.

    When those same politicians like Hancock and Bethel have no relevant medical qualifications and take their advice from a group like SAGE which is itself full of mathematicians and psychologists......then throw in an utterly supine MSM.

    And they won’t engage with genuine respiratory specialists? Even if you don’t think it stinks it is a recipe for serious errors in public health policy and ruinous to the economy that supports the physical and mental wellbeing of the 99.5%.

    We are 54 weeks into the 3 weeks to flatten the curve.

    You ought to toddle off back to your Johnny Halliday tribute band (no, me neither) because you are embarrassing yourself.

    Surely with your attachment to all things Times of London you have picked up on the Edinburgh headmaster story on the lockdown impact on his pupils? You don’t let countervailing truths intrude? I am no denier but this is utterly disproportionate and unsupported by reliable science. So why?

    I've played with one of his drummer once. Great artist. Not my playground but a great man.
    How much is you evaluation of the embarrassment percentage? 91% ??
    :joy::joy::joy::joy:

    I've put a "like" for the effort finding a french artist, even if you spelled him wrongly.

    I don't moke that, conspis are probably in a kind of. It's not something to joke about. Moreover they usually are the ones that don't know about.

    Studies are starting to raise about. really interesting

    I remember we were “told” at the beginning of the first Covid outbreak how infectious it was and how careful we should all be.
    Now we’re being “told” that the latest mutation is even more infectious.
    My question is at what point do rna viruses reach the peak of their infectiousness?
    Or are we being fed more of the indigestionable codswallop?
