I'm a bit of an idiot so can someone explain why we don't do it sooner than Monday? Surely an extra 3 days gives it more time for it to be carried into the country. Or am I overlooking something?Tweet

Hopefully, your parents will be alright in no time. Also while it's easier said than done, try to not worry too much about things that you can't control.So I've recovered from Covid. Still having lingering symptoms of headaches and being really easily winded (feeling as if I were running at altitude instead of sea level).
I find out this morning that my mom and dad have both tested positive and are having more serious symptoms than what I experienced. Then 15 minutes later, my wife tells me that between 7am and 10am in her ICU, they'd had 4 patients die, coded another, and had put 5 more on ventilators.
Just... wtf man
Fecking horrible, all of it.So I've recovered from Covid. Still having lingering symptoms of headaches and being really easily winded (feeling as if I were running at altitude instead of sea level).

That's the biggest thing I'm trying to do. This is going to sound crazy, but it is the situation I'm living in... but the school team I coach has a wrestling tournament tomorrow that will at least get my mind on something else for a little while.Hopefully, your parents will be alright in no time. Also while it's easier said than done, try to not worry too much about things that you can't control.
I appreciate it. It is awful for sure. We're living through a train wreck of a pandemic response in this state. It's crazy, it's just all crazy.Fecking horrible, all of it.
Thoughts are with your parents.
And with your wife, must be hell going in to that and knowing its not a car crash or something, its a virus thats going to keep causing havoc for a long time.
Sorry to hear that pal.So I've recovered from Covid. Still having lingering symptoms of headaches and being really easily winded (feeling as if I were running at altitude instead of sea level).

Just... wtf man
My wife has had this happen.
Do that report form, it's ridiculous.Just watched Boris and Whitty telling people to stay home and save lives and my next door neighbours family have arrived for a holiday in Anglesey again from the North West . They come and go without a care in the world.
Thank you. It's just unreal. This whole situation is just unreal.@Carolina Red, I'm so sorry about what's happening, how worrying for you. x
Holy smoke! So sorry to hear about all your troubles. Thoughts are with you for whatever the heck that’s worth. And for your wife to be threatened too ... no words!So I've recovered from Covid.

I'd say unbelievable, but there are a lot of thick cnuts in the UK - plus, grief does all sorts to a person.
Agree with the rest here CR. I hope your family gets through this difficult time.Thank you. It's just unreal. This whole situation is just unreal.
i’m normally the sort of person to let people get on with it. One of my neighbours is a home hairdresser. Their house backs on to ours. Normally they’ve got the back curtains to her “salon” open. But recently they’ve had some nets installed. Doesn’t stop us seeing the steady stream of customers rocking up.Just watched Boris and Whitty telling people to stay home and save lives and my next door neighbours family have arrived for a holiday in Anglesey again from the North West .

Is it to give people a chance to get home/go elsewhere or make arrangements so they don't get stranded maybe?I'm a bit of an idiot so can someone explain why we don't do it sooner than Monday? Surely an extra 3 days gives it more time for it to be carried into the country. Or am I overlooking something?
Difficult one there!i’m normally the sort of person to let people get on with it. One of my neighbours is a home hairdresser. Their house backs on to ours.

Boils my piss. Just one of those people being infected could mean 15-20 people heading home with a lovely new haircut. And an infectious virus. which they then pass on to their family.
But if I report them, they lose their income and might not be able to feed their kids.
Does anyone know if includes people who are transiting through London?Tweet

I might be flying to the US in a few weeks..
The US will now require a negative covid test proof before I can board the flight.. so if I do travel, I will have that anyway.. the flight I was looking at transits through London..
Yep - https://www.heathrow.com/customer-support/faq/coronavirus-covid-19Does anyone know if includes people who are transiting through London?

Very very wise indeed. Humanity's worse enemy is humanity itself.Years ago, a much wiser man than me told me that if you give people enough rope, most would end up hanging themselves.
Older I get, the more I realise he was right.
I'm so so sorry to hear that. Stay strong bro. Your wife is vaccinated. You're recovering. I just hope your parents are milder cases. You're almost at the promised land (no not that one. The end of the pandemic). Just a few more months.So I've recovered from Covid. Still having lingering symptoms of headaches and being really easily winded (feeling as if I were running at altitude instead of sea level).

Something to cheer you up.That's the biggest thing I'm trying to do. This is going to sound crazy, but it is the situation I'm living in... but the school team I coach has a wrestling tournament tomorrow that will at least get my mind on something else for a little while.
I appreciate it. It is awful for sure. We're living through a train wreck of a pandemic response in this state. It's crazy, it's just all crazy.
I got past Covid and my wife just got her 2nd dose of the vaccine and I'm thinking "okay, breathe a little" and then wham. Both parents. But hey, at least the economy is open, right?
I hate this place.
Sorry. Rant over.
Can't you report them or something? Or is it within the rules?Just watched Boris and Whitty telling people to stay home and save lives and my next door neighbours family have arrived for a holiday in Anglesey again from the North West . They come and go without a care in the world.
Urgh, I hope they station trigger happy policemen to protect the hospitals. Seriously, wtf.
Not really.. I might. Will decide on it in a few weeks.do you really have to fly?
my job usually has me flying every few weeks, i havent flown since fen last year
Thanks.. so if I was getting a negative Covid test anyway (US needs it for all arrivals), it should be fine.
Is 'at the coalface' alright then?This habit from some of saying they are on the 'frontline' in the job they do is fecking annoying and dramatic. Teachers, postal workers and essential retail are all doing a great job but less of the battlefield dross.
The staff working 14+ hour days in covid riddled hospitals are the frontline so to speak.
Miners?Is 'at the coalface' alright then?
You would think so but it's an expression used by a whole variety of tossers trying to get across how hard they work. It's a favourite of teachers believe it or not, although some of them have the decency to say chalkface instead.Miners?
I've never heard it if I'm honest but I do agree these groups need to pipe the feck down some what and take what they do into context.You would think so but it's an expression used by a whole variety of tossers trying to get across how hard they work. It's a favourite of teachers believe it or not, although some of them have the decency to say chalkface instead.
My very best wishes for your parents and of course your wife. Words cannot describe how much I admire those brilliant people in our NHS for all their care and compassion.So I've recovered from Covid. Still having lingering symptoms of headaches and being really easily winded (feeling as if I were running at altitude instead of sea level).

And if you don't report them, they could loose their lives. And so could you...i’m normally the sort of person to let people get on with it. One of my neighbours is a home hairdresser.

Is it this story? From a couple of weeks ago thoughWhat’s this about the US confirming it came from the lab? Is it true? Lost the tweet now
Don’t think so. Seemed more specific. Could have been bollocks though.Is it this story? From a couple of weeks ago though
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...avirus-outbreak-says-government-official.html
If it is found that the virus was indeed manmade, and China have known this and not disclosed, what action should be taken against them? If any?
A quick google finds a couple of stories, one i'll link below.Don’t think so. Seemed more specific. Could have been bollocks though.
Im not sure anyone would dare do much against China
