Masks were still mandated this time last year. Only selfish people didn't wear them then. And, erm, now. Johnson's idiocy, and peoples selfishness, caused the subsequent rise in infections that resulted in tens of thousand more people dying unnecessarily.

How do you explain covid almost being eliminated last June with minimal mask use and no vaccine?  I have never been able to receive an answer to this elephant in the room.

"It now seems that protective measures such as masking and distancing leading to lower exposure (getting a lower infectious dose) correlates with risk of death. So if you’re exposed to less virus the course of the infection is less severe. This has been long-suspected but the data is now supporting that. The decreases we’re seeing in morbidity and mortality are in part due to a very steep ...

What I do remember is that between March and June last year masks were not required and most people did not wear them in shops or on transport, yet by June cases and deaths had flatlined without a vaccine even in sight.  At that point masks were inexplicably mandated, but they did nothing to prevent cases rising in the autumn and winter, which indicates masks are useless and covid is yet another ...

I'm not sure that I have read anywhere that the vaccine is seen as a cure all.  It has been made clear that having the vaccine will not necessarily stop people getting the virus.  The vaccine will, however, stop people getting as ill as they might have done if they had not been vacccinated. And if vaccinated people can still get the virus then they can pass it on to others. But if more and ...

@burnside Your right on both counts the vaccines dont work simply because people have been miss-led into believing they are now immune from catching or passing on the virus by a corrupt government controlled media, and yes the money spend on the vaccines and the ppe has been wasted. Also it never has been just about a virus the virus itself is nothing more than a flu derivative that just ...

Why shouldn't people travel to the south west - or anywhere else - for a holiday, not everyone is fortunate enough to live in a nice place like Dawlish.  And if there is another lockdown it will either mean billions have been spent on vaccines that don't work, or this is not just about a virus.
