Are you talking about those who would rather see people go without health care, suffer so as not clog ‘their’ hospitals? Or the soulless selfish animals who mocked others misfortune and passing? Maybe those frightened little children who will call the police if people don’t get a vaccination? Those goose stepping mandate Nazis?

Yeah I guess few of them would want to acknowledge natural immunity turning out to be the best defense against covid after all.

Beijing has reported its highest number of Covid-19 cases in 18 months, five days ahead of the start of the Winter Olympics in the Chinese capital.

After 20 more cases were reported in the capital, officials announced that some local areas had been locked down with residents being tested.

Separately, organisers of the Olympics reported 34 new infections within the event's "closed-loop" bubble.

Officials said it included 13 athletes or officials arriving at the airport.

Anyone testing positive is being put into isolation and only allowed to compete after getting two negative test results in 24 hours.

No plans to visit Chyna anytime soon. LOL


Don't much like the idea of being in a building with all the exits welded shut.

Ministers will meet later to decide whether to end mandatory jabs for NHS staff in England.

Patricia Marquis, head of the Royal College of Nursing England, says mandatory vaccines are "not the way to go"

Front-line NHS workers would need a first vaccine dose by Thursday - health bosses say the policy will cause a staffing crisis.

Restrictions are being eased in care homes in England, with self-isolation periods reduced and the limit on visitors scrapped.

In Scotland, work from home advice is ending, but the government wants a "phased return to the office"

It's two years since the first Covid patients in the UK were taken into hospital.

More and more experts in Germany raise doubts on that Omikron marks the beginning of the endemic "end game" of the virus, saying that the immunity quality of various strains of Covid 19 differ and may not be such that that gained by one infection may prevent the running of another strain pandemically. They say that it is absolutely possible that if Omikron is fought back down, Delta will raise its head again - or another mutation. "We simply do not know what other variants will appear in the future", they point out. They also indicate that we nevertheless must learn to balance the protection of the vulnerabel with the affordability of measurements for the economy and civil society. "Pretty much like we learned to accept a certain price to pay during every yearly flu season."
They also say however that immunity gained by triple jabs and/or natural immunization by infection will alter chnace sin faovur of the newly infected, no matter whether the nimmunity is "idela" for the infection strain, or was raised by another strain. If it is not a perfect pairing, the protection is reduced, but still relevant.

Fourth jabs are seen critical so far, after early study results from Israel are not enthusiastic about it. "Maybe the elder and vulnerable in autumn this year, but not generally all of the population", it is said. Longer intervals between jabs seem to be more efficient anyway.

An infection with a normal, mild cause of Omikron only gives you several times less antibodies than a proper vaccination program, a new US study finds. Thus your gained immunity is significantly weaker.

In a Danish article it says that the new B.2 variant is far more infectious than Omicron and B.1. They still don't know if B.2 is worse than Omicron and B.1 which isn't as deadly as Delta variant.

Re-infections make up one in 10 of cases in the Omicron variant wave, UK government figures show.

They are likely to be people who had Alpha or Delta more than 90 days before, and have added another half a million cases to the total.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson takes Sue Gray's report into parties in No 10 during Covid restrictions seriously, says Dominic Raab.

The government must now get on with the vaccine rollout and dealing with Ukraine, the deputy PM says.

But former Tory cabinet minister Andrew Mitchell says the crisis won't go away and is more corrosive than the MPs' expenses scandal.

Sue Gray's report identified "failures of leadership and judgment" in Downing Street.

The Met Police are investigating 12 events and say they have more than 300 photos.

Meanwhile, the government has scrapped plans to make Covid jabs compulsory for frontline NHS staff in England.

I am sure he will take it VERY serious, indeed he will apologise and take FULL RESPONSIBILITY. Again.
