To mask up or not?

Funny how pretty much all governments all over the world are doing pretty much the same thing to protect those people that they believe are most susceptible to this virus, one hell of a conspiracy if that's what you are daft enough to believe!
Still who cares about those poor buggers as long as you're OK?
It's not a conspiracy, it's not strange that people all over the world are prone to fear, stupidity and selfishness.. they are all humans

Have they really started on the 4th already?
Thought they might get through new year!
Clearly if they saying(which they are) that the boosters reducing cases then they should have given sooner.
Maybe it will become monthly?
Some of the at risk groups who had the first jab very early on are being told they will need a 4th jab asap to protect against the new strain.

That is why it looks pretty much a conspiracy as they are all doing the same thing!

Take this new strain, a complete over reaction to it at this stage!

And a nonsense to today tell everyone to get a third jab with the current vaccine when only on Sat they were saying the current covid jab does not offer much if any protection against this new strain!

Would make a lot more sense to hold fire on the third jab untill they can rejig the vaccine to cover this new strain unless you are in a at risk group!
Course it would, let’s wait until we know it’s a potential killer for some folk & do something when it’s all too late, can’t for the life of me why all these governments don’t just listen to you?

Its no more a potential killer than the previous strains!

And given they have known about this strain since last July its strange how all of a sudden its such a big problem!

To be fair if the government actually cared about its population and wanted to save them, they'd ban smoking to save you from lung cancer, they'd ban sugar to save you from diabetes and they'd ban sex to save you from STDs. But no they can't have you dying from covid without being able to cash in.

And ban cars/ stairs/ swimming and so the long list goes on!

But not all governments are doing the same thing.

Also debate is being shut down.

The level of it now is that people are wishing illness on others if they refuse to comply with the dubious and unproven methods of control. Tell me what has been the purpose of Irelands lockdown over the whole of the past year? I honestly do not get it.

Find it a bit muddling. So mask mandatory from tomorrow to go in the village shop - OK. But then next week I am off to see The Charlatans at the Engine Shed. Where there will shouting, singing etc. No mask required. some logic I presume!
 
Mmm Given the vascular damage side effects are likely permanent and cumulative it's a worry.

This is the stuff that could have potential implications. Again I'm not anti vaccine and I'm pro vaccine for over 50's in general and it definitely seems worth it for over 75's.

But for children? Sorry, I think its really wrong

You get to a point charlie where people have to take your word for it.
, think I have a pic somewhere, of the portal where I logged in to get result.
But If people believe you are going to lie about, then not really going to believe an email/pic etc anyway
Who's asking for antibody test results?
