I am an NHS worker (medical secretary). It really does frustrate me to see people being so blaze about the rules and blatantly disregarding them. Hopefully though, there will now be light at the end of the tunnel with this new vaccine.

Coronavirus - The Thread :(
The best thing one can practise in 'mass media' and 'politician' distancing.
This article from the Executive Editor of the British Medical Journal summarises the situation, titled 'COVID-19 - politicisation, corruption, and suppression of science':

Youngest grandson got sent home from pre school with a cough and daughter told to call 111. he then had to go for a test and now has to stay home and wait results, pretty sure he only coughs there because they have the heating on full blast,
Thinking about it, the number of cold callers at the front door has reduced to almost zero. A small bonus.
The one caller we had, just before opening the front door, I started to cough loudly and repeatedly. On opening the door, there was no-one there.

Eurgh, from December 1 Taiwan is bringing in regulations that you have to wear masks in all public places, despite us having no infections here for over 200 days.
It doesn't make any sense - and people are not very happy about it.

A paranoid response but completely justifiable as Covid 19 is unpredictable.

Remember - just because you're paranoid doesn't mean it's not gonna get you.
My wife was speaking to our daughter yesterday, a charge nurse, and she said that a man with covid 19 traveled from London on public transport all the way to Raigmore hospital in Inverness. 
Nothing booked accommodation wise. So now he’s probably infected people on his journey up here, and now in a bed being looked after by hospital staff who should be seeing to other people.
Seriously you just couldn’t make this up.

If he survives, he should be prosecuted for recklessly endangering lives.My wife was speaking to our daughter yesterday, a charge nurse, and she said that a man with covid 19 traveled from London on public transport all the way to Raigmore hospital in Inverness.

Covid might be a cure in this case, but sadly it isn't selective.
Sadly following the example set by members of government... :bang:My wife was speaking to our daughter yesterday, a charge nurse, and she said that a man with covid 19 travelled from London on public transport all the way to Raigmore hospital in Inverness.

Hes not come from Westminster,London has he..?
On the last friday before the England lockdown I had an errand to run in our small town.
It was like Xmas eve.. absolute pandemonium.. cars double parked..etc
Pavements were heaving.. as I was driving slowly-looking to return .
I noticed a woman on the path
Shout and rush over to an elderly woman and give her a 'bear hug'
Thats not generally how you greet somebody from your own household .. 'long time no see' no mask of course

It is 30 minutes, and initially takes a bit of perseverance, but I found it quite interesting.
Summary: MMR combined vaccine seems to have triggered the body to create a stronger response than if the three vaccines had been administered separately. Also a stronger response than having had any, or all of the illnesses. Those who've had the MMR vaccine, seem to have a stronger response to Covid. This guy is suggesting there needs to be more research, as it seems the MMR vaccine may help us resist covid.
Great for those who got the MMR vaccine. Not so good for those of us older, who got all our vaccination before the MMR was created.

I'll wait for the peer-reviewed research, thanks. Having a gazillion followers on your YouTube channel doesn't make you an expert.
And then you have that well know quack Andrew Wakefield who used "dodgy data" to put so many parents off having their children vaccinated so that now we have a dangerously low take up of MMR. My fear is that Measles will make a return and will cause huge damage not just to children but to their teachers, parents and adults too.
O'h for the days of discussing a misfire or the best way to weld up a rusty floor pan!
