If none of the hundreds off work have done that, you'd have a right to moan about it ;)

Yet some are prepared to make accusations based on an unknown percentage

It would appear to be guilty until proven innocent, when it suits of course

Flu's quite serious and can kill. So not much better. (Or was it a cold?)

Clapping for the NHS is wrong? :confused:

I mean I know it’s virtue signalling, and it’s not as good as a pay rise for our key workers, but wrong seems (ironically) a bit extreme!

Seeing as nobody else has mentioned this one of the pioneers of mRna technology is now being banned off of social media platforms because he has questions and concerns about the covid medication. His name is Robert Malone he was and is a respected virologist but social media has slapped the misinformation label on him. If a person who pioneered the technology and is a virologist can't be trusted who the hell can.

.. or take an LFT.

Also, you only need one for large venues (in England anyway).

Here you go

"However, the NHS has been helped by lower pressures elsewhere. Flu is at rock-bottom levels. There are fewer than 50 patients in hospital with the virus in England."

Here’s a fairly even-handed bit of research into Dr Malone - btw, he’s an immunologist, not a virologist.

Can you point out the "even handed" parts.

Malone, who did not respond to an emailed request for comment, received a medical degree from Northwestern University in 1991 and specializes in immunology, according to his license with the Maryland Board of Physicians. As then-chief medical officer for a Florida pharmaceutical company called Alchem Laboratories Corp., he was involved during the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic in research looking into Pepcid, the heartburn medicine, as a potential COVID-19 treatment.

Malone markets himself as the "inventor" of mRNA and DNA vaccines on his website and LinkedIn profile. His Twitter account, before it was suspended, said the same thing.

There’s some merit to that claim, as several reporters and fact-checkers have documented.

Malone contributed to important early research. A pair of papers he coauthored with two other researchers in 1989 and six other researchers in 1990 showed that mRNA could be delivered into cells using lipids, and that doing so with mice could trigger the production of new proteins. The two papers were the first reference in a 2019 history of the mRNA vaccine technology.
