As far as I can recall bojo spouted something about some appointments having to be cancelled, although I assume this isn’t urgent cancer appointments/treatments.

I do think it’s all a bit mental to make it harder to see a dr or nurse considering how difficult it is already. Luckily got my sons year jabs last week (about 4 weeks late) but struggled last year to get him his first ones with covid as an excuse.

Now that you are calling me a liar , please provide the proof.
viewtopic.php?p=239976#p239976

If you've found proof that the lie that Omricon is just like a cold then please present it and I'll retract

But you won't, because it was bollocks
Shortly before 8.30 this morning on Radio five and in an interview with a professor at UCL studying the impact of Omicron , he stated that symptoms reported so far are similar to the common cold and unlike delta. This is as I reported .
You can listen to this on the BBC website I expect. Once you have , perhaps you will be man enough to apologise for the liar and dangerous comments.
If you have heard evidence to the contrary, please post it
All these people being hospitalised with common cold symptoms need to man the fu*k up.

Dunno.

But the cock will still vote Tory* next time around because they’re all the same and it’s the least worse option and doesn’t want to go back to the 70s etc etc

*Im assuming there isn’t a UKIP/GBNews candidate in his constituency.

Whilst that may be the experience of some people, if it was universal we wouldn't be seeing hospitalisations from it

Dunno but merely retracting the statement won't help.

He should have demanded that Johnson reverse the latesr policy of diverting medical staff from routine treatments to giving booster jabs. But then isn't that Catch 22. I don't expect a simpleton like Gilso to understand complex medical issues.

And why is nobody pulling him up for being rude and all shouting to the PM. He's doing his best in a difficult environment.

Not quite the apology I was expecting. I think it has always been accepted that with the numbers of predicted infections, there will be some hospitalisations.
No part of what I reported were my views. I was simply passing on information that I had heard / read. It was neither dangerous or fabricated

Yes. It’s a numbers game now. But we are in a better position now than with Delta because of our vaccination programme.

People are still dying from COVID everyday. On average around 150. You are hearing of one death , presumed from Omicron , with no age or health conditions attached to it. No need to panic yet.

Think I am correct in saying 20 million have and the acceleration of delivery will mean everyone who wants a booster will have one within 6 weeks.

I do love a coward that doesn’t have the grace to apologise when they have been proved wrong , as you demanded the evidence to do just that.
As Tuffers says , add something to the thread or bore off.
If you are that worried about it , I suggest you stay indoors. One less idiot to bump into

Nobody is scared mate

They just take issue with you calling something a cold that kills people.
