Is Coronavirus as serious as they say?

But we already know this. And it's not just the UK, many nations are considering this. I'm not worried. They may try to implement it but I doubt it will last.
I should clarify that I’m not referring to a passport to secure international travel (which is being widely considered) the ‘passport’ being discussed in the UK is for access to cinemas, theatres, concerts and sports venues and possibly pubs and restaurants.

There is (in effect) already an ID scheme for football, but what’s being discussed is on a different level and it’s a more thorough electronic surveillance scheme.

I might note, as Mozmar stated, there is in any case a further degradation of privacy (around medical records) about to happen in the UK—I’ve just found out that the ‘opt out’ isn’t as easy as was promised.

From what I’ve read the state is about to sell more personal NHS information to private data companies; guess what—the Covid passport scheme apparently being proposed is an extension of the NHS app.

right FC, taking a 5 min walk to buy 15 yr old cat food is really living it up:rolleyes:
BGV is busy making up chick/residency/D stories that nobody will believe but
radish....you will make it look like you believe while subtly undermining his made up stories🥸
you desperately want to regain your position as forum top artist in residency, pontificating and dispensing non sensical advice:hammer:
Try living in the real world instead of your shell....

If you go out you could meet some c*** who really loves you...

The Telegraph’s website is now running a story which should be surprising. Sadly, it’s anything but: “restrictions could be in place until spring”.
 
That *might* be true. But what is also true is that the Delta variant is VERY deadly. You lemmings don't have to believe the science. But get vaccinated so you don't die.
‘Get vaccinated and stay locked down anyway, just to be sure—and to save our NHS’ is surely what your script said?

Look, BoJo f***ed up rolling out the vaccinations in the UK. Thats on him.

Here in NYC people who are vaccinated are living the f***ing dream.

I am at the fancy restaurants EVERY day drinking $15 water and setting my Chanel bag down on HIGH TOUCH SURFACES without worrying about dying from COVID.

I'll go to ZARA without using hand sanitizer. I'll leave ZARA with two bags.

I might stop by the bakery and pick up tarts for the house.

I haven't worn a mask in a month.

It's been grand.

Next week, I'll fly Jetblue Mint back to Los Angeles for 3 days of meeting and will stay at the Palihouse in Santa Monica. I'll keep my mask off.

This is all because I've been vaccinated. It's a choice, just like free riding is a choice. Do it or not.

Please keep your insane and technically incorrect anti-vax comments to yourself.

You don't know what you are talking about, you don't know what mRNA
is, and you're spreading idiotic lies. Maybe you do so unwittingly,
because of bad education. Maybe you do so because you've talked to
"experts" or watched youtube videos by charlatans that don't know what
they are talking about.

But dammit, regardless of where you have gotten your mis-information
from, any Linux kernel discussion list isn't going to have your
idiotic drivel pass uncontested from me.

Vaccines have saved the lives of literally tens of millions of people.

Just for your edification in case you are actually willing to be
educated: mRNA doesn't change your genetic sequence in any way. It is
the exact same intermediate - and temporary - kind of material that
your cells generate internally all the time as part of your normal
cell processes, and all that the mRNA vaccines do is to add a dose
their own specialized sequence that then makes your normal cell
machinery generate that spike protein so that your body learns how to
recognize it.

The half-life of mRNA is a few hours. Any injected mRNA will be all
gone from your body in a day or two. It doesn't change anything
long-term, except for that natural "your body now knows how to
recognize and fight off a new foreign protein" (which then tends to
fade over time too, but lasts a lot longer than a few days). And yes,
while your body learns to fight off that foreign material, you may
feel like shit for a while. That's normal, and it's your natural
response to your cells spending resources on learning how to deal with
the new threat.

And of the vaccines, the mRNA ones are the most modern, and the most
targeted - exactly because they do *not* need to have any of the other
genetic material that you traditionally have in a vaccine (ie no need
for basically the whole - if weakened - bacterial or virus genetic
material). So the mRNA vaccines actually have *less* of that foreign
material in them than traditional vaccines do. And a *lot* less than
the very real and actual COVID-19 virus that is spreading in your
neighborhood.

Honestly, anybody who has told you differently, and who has told you
that it changes your genetic material, is simply uneducated. You need
to stop believing the anti-vax lies, and you need to start protecting
your family and the people around you. Get vaccinated.

I think you are in Germany, and COVID-19 numbers are going down. It's
spreading a lot less these days, largely because people around you
have started getting the vaccine - about half having gotten their
first dose around you, and about a quarter being fully vaccinated. If
you and your family are more protected these days, it's because of all
those other people who made the right choice, but it's worth noting
that as you see the disease numbers go down in your neighborhood,
those diminishing numbers are going to predominantly be about people
like you and your family.

So don't feel all warm and fuzzy about the fact that covid cases have
dropped a lot around you. Yes, all those vaccinated people around you
will protect you too, but if there is another wave, possibly due to a
more transmissible version - you and your family will be at _much_
higher risk than those vaccinated people because of your ignorance and
mis-information.

Get vaccinated. Stop believing the anti-vax lies.

And if you insist on believing in the crazy conspiracy theories, at
least SHUT THE HELL UP about it on Linux kernel discussion lists.

I was reading Assault on Truth by Peter Oborne & he said he got dropped by the Daily Mail, The BBC & C4 for documenting Boris Johnson's lies. He can't get any mainstream work anymore.

There's a lot about the Covid response in the book - it's worth a read.

Did you get the Dior vaccine????

Or did you unfortunately have to slum it with the AZ like the 4king rest of us ??????
