No I haven't left the UK since lockdown. But if everyone is scared of the new lambda variant and it threat of killing us all wouldn't it be better to keep it out?

You need to leave it long enough to get plenty of infection in before blocking travel. Can't go upsetting the voters.
Put some red chiles on me curry to0night .

Do they need to be hand delivered or something?
I thought the science was saying it was more an airborne virus and didn't last on surfaces. Were the BBC talking shite again or has there been a new discovery?

You wouldn't be doing a very good job of closing borders if you let lorry drivers in.

It's a variant of interest, not concern.

That's good to know. Updated today, I see.
Thanks.

But what's more important? People getting what they want or others dying. Bit of a moral dilemma there for you. A couple of people who don't want the vaccine may die so surely the country should be closed down to stop the arrival of this devastating lambda strain.

I think we live on different planets
I must admit, I think I might of liked living in the 1600’s but I can’t make that happen.
Actually quite enjoying it , if I didn't have to cut that bit of wheat off I'd probably put in for residency .Worried you’ll be stuck?

Interesting to note, without being overly specific, the age range of our positive inpatients has shifted a fair bit. Locally it is close to 60% "over 50" and 40% "under 40".
77 inpatients.
15 on mechanical ventilation
Deaths are now relatively rare occurrences just the odd one or two so a much lower percentage.
On the bright side I`m isolating having had a PCR yesterday ahead of surgery on Friday.
Took a late cancellation appointment as the consultant has a waiting list of 1,500.
Sometimes being "in the job" has some perks, it`ll get me put on a "sickness target" but it's a small price to pay.

Who has to pay for the side effects of vaccinations that have been untested? I certainly am not.
