Fed up of the restrictions now.

It is, long term, the only way. It can never be eradicated.

 

I think @Barry Haynes often visits the The Dandy Cock when he's in Brighton.

 

That is far too logical

 

Exactly, the vaccines look likely to be needed once or twice a year, alongside flu vaccines and 'next crap disease to come out of people building cities where the few locals used to just die occasionally from animal viruses' .. dont go in the Bat Cave kids, your uncle died last year...

We are now in the mid game, where the aim is to avoid massive death this winter, in the hope that some vaccine may appear.
Otherwise we may just have to have lockdown periods every 6 months for the next few years, as the pool of people who are going to die or suffer anyway from Covid are worked through.

I dont do a lot of socialising - sailing club in summer, nothing much in winter, dont need to go down the pub or visit people, so the lockdowns just mean my employer cant try to gently insist I come into work to do nothing except relocate my camper van office to the carpark.
The last 2 times I went to work I was in the office for 20 mins each day. Once because endless meetings overloaded rooms so I did Zoom conf. calls from the carpark. And the next day, the customers said they were canning the sea trials as the new lockdown counted R&D trials as non-essential.

 

It won’t be over by then, this will be years maybe 10 of years, i find it funny that fed up ness is of any importance considering the gravitas of the situation

 

Who told you that!?
I think a lot of folks, mainly the younger ones and the deniers don't bother with masks or social distancing. Funny how covid has ripped through so many universities. Blame it on our freedom to do what we effing like.

 

We are social animals and we are not allowed to be any more. It will drive people mad, seriously, we need other people to bounce off, talk to, cry with, hug and so many other things. Meanwhile, people in China are having massive parties and not a mention of a vaccine anywhere.

 

but that’s the problem, that’s not rational decision making , it’s emotional, I was asking Ethan if school had changed and how it was etc, he said he will just adapt to the new situation and get on with it.

 

Soon as they get the Gloria Gaynor on, he's burning up the dance floor...

 

no no no , this ***** of blaming the younger folks , nope , I see people of all ages doing it, as I keep saying , it’s apparently everyone else

 

Thing is though snotts, when he starts strutting his stuff it's more like Sophie Ellis-Bexter said, "It's Murder on the dancefloor!"

 

how does it one cure a pandemic , oh and overnight?

not grovel fur benefits, prove they are entitled, why has working hard got anything to do with asking for help when required, should more people die so some people don’t feel slightly uncomfortable?

of course it’s far from ideal , but blaming a group of people for it is ridiculous, I’m sure folks who’ve had people close to them die aren’t quoting statistics to prove it’s not as bad as the need to stay home for a few weeks

 

Yes, I said mainly, not entirely. If these students are all such goody-two-shoes, who is spreading it around the campuses?

 

If everyone behaved like your lads, we wouldn't have a problem. I agree it's too complex to generalise. Perhaps I should have said it's the naughties in every age group who are causing the problem. Our daughter and her two children have all got it, they suspect from school where it's rife.
