    it will. If you think just one kid catching covid at school can force me to close from today to January 4th, how many small companies will be in the same situation in January when the kids go back to school? The NHS employs 1.3 million people. I reckon 10% will be forced to stay at home...

    wait for after Christmas. I wouldn't be surprised to see the positive cases hitting 200,000 a day. We managed until last week without any of us catching it. Then last week, a child of one of us brought covid home, 3 days later, her father tested positive. Now all of us have to isolate at home...

    give me mo to think about it. Big breakfast at McDonald's, lunch at KFC with a large cup of cola and pizza and beer for dinner?

    it's a relative risk calculation. Some professor came on TV the other day and gave 50% protection factor against severe covid to natural infection, 30% to first jab, 70% for two jabs and 85% for three jabs. After 3 jabs, if you don't wear a mask, you'd come into contact with Omicron within half...

    I usually get 2-3 blood tests a year to monitor my diabetes and PSA so I spend half an hour each time to read the results of the blood work. If I ever feel anxious about any indicator, I always talk to my GP. 95% of the time, I come home without a prescription.

    There is a hassle factor but there is also a genuine health concern associated with booster jabs. Every time you get a booster jab, your immune system is stimulated. One more cycle may be OK for most people but repeated boosters? No. For some, there is a risk to cause blood clots, and for most...

    the article on the sciencedirect website is interesting but most of the ground work was done last year, 2020, so it's not new*. When you look at the practical therapy side, telling people that the pathway to cytokine storm may be in the way the virus affects mitochondrial DNA may just push some...

    . it was me who replied to you about Ivermectin. I still maintain that Ivermectin is not good enough to be used as Covid treatment. About 440 antivirals have been tested in hospitals against covid as possible repurposed drugs (including Ivermectin), only 4 were successful enough and Ivermectin...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    he got that because the ERG put him in No 10. The right wing press in this country works with the ERG for a few very rich people who are only interested in lower taxes and deregulation. BJ can't deliver either so those rich folks and the ERG are not happy with him. The right wing press will talk...

    you are wrong there. The more people fear Omicron, the more they think KS is right and BJ is wrong. If it turns out Omicron kills 100,000 people, it's BJ's fault. If Omicron kills only 10,000, then the Covid Recovery Group will send in their disapproval letters. Either way, BJ won't have anyone...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    BJ has not made brexit work for those who made him PM. He has not lowered taxes, nor deregulated. Brexit hasn't worked for the remainers either, trade with the EU keeps dropping off a cliff, 25% export to the EU have already gone, way past the point of no return. 44% of financial firms in the...

    I don't think Omicron is weaker, just that we are better prepared to face it, resulting in milder symptoms and fewer hospitalisations. The main danger is the number of NHS workers told to stay at home and self isolate.

    Apparently, they have already arranged for another booster for the aged in the new year. The shot only gives about 3 months worth of protection and people in my age group (most of whom would vote tory) had our booster last September/October. Trust me on this, another shot will annoy millions of...

    I am surprised that the public rated Sunak so highly. He is remembered for 'eat out to help out', borrowing 400 billions and stupidly lent billions to fraudsters without a single check nor collateral. He's hardly better than the rest of BJ's cabinet.

    Yellow cards are only the raw material, you can use them for detecting relative trends but can't count the number of deaths following the jabs as solid evidence of vaccines causing deaths, same with government counting deaths within 28 days as covid deaths. I think the government has accepted...

    this year, not locking down is less dangerous than last year. Those currently being in hospital are mostly unvaccinated or over 75. I reckon that the level of hospitalisation will peak at around 15-January with less than 30,000 being treated at the same time.

    it can knock 10% off the staff level of the NHS. I don't think they have much choice if the number of covid related hospital admissions go over 2,000 a day.

    I thought Labour did alright, Libdems benefited from vote lending. Bad only for Johnson although Labour need Johnson to stay in post until the next election.
