    The 21st is still on, with social distancing and mask wearing to continue, that's how I see it.

    Even saw an add for masks in the chemists yesterday, stating its the best way to avoid colds and flu.
    Got the feeling masks will now be here to stay in this super clean germ free anti bacterial lifestyle we will all be expected to follow.
    I'm, buying shares in Domestos.;)

      Not sure if anyone saw News Watch this morning on the BBC, a large amount of it was spent about the fact that we shouldn't be calling it the Indian variant because it causes racism.

      An Indian medical student was allowed to go on at length about it, and stating the BBC should have used the scientific name for it, before the name Delta was given to it.

      The BBC oh the BBC, only the BBC, would have given it air time.:roflol:

        From 'The Guardian', that bastion of anti-racism

        "Public Health England analysis finds Delta variant is more likely to lead to hospitalisation than Kent variant"

                I went in four places yesterday - everyone wearing masks but some didn't have their noses covered. To be fair to those people, it's possible they didn't know it had slipped off their noses as all of them had rather large noses - and I'm not being nose-ist :heehee:

                The trade warehouse I went into won't allow you in without a mask. You have to get through reception, to present your trade card, and they won't allow you any further without the mask.

                  Classic...:loll::roflol:

                  Dr Wolf, well known for her acclaimed third-wave feminist book The Beauty Myth, posted a wide-range of unfounded theories about vaccines.

                  One tweet claimed that vaccines were a "software platform that can receive uploads".

                  She also compared Dr Anthony Fauci, the top Covid adviser in the US, to Satan to her more than 140,000 followers.

                  Shortly anyone over 70 who has not had the vaccine can go to any centre and walk up, show ID and immediately be vaccinated. Age is priority over appointments. We shall probably go.
