  1. I did say I would let you know shat happened and when: here goes. As a result of having caught the virus (we think in September) all 3 in my 'bubble were tested and full of antibodies so my inje3ction was going to be delayed a little with a possible 5 month period of possible protection. I got a call on Thursday and given a time this morning. The place looked like total chaos - 10 or4 so stewards directing traffc with 2 police officers at the surgery and one of the normally unused entrances wide open. Those able to walk were directed well away from the building so that those in chairs etc were able to park near the doors. In effect the total chaos was exactly the opposite and the organisation inside was amazing! There are a number od Surgeries in the building they were all combined so that there were many cubicles for injections - these grew whilst I was there and a number of staff were manning laptops for details of who and when - details of any problems and a young guy showing where one should go . I did not get chance to sit down before I was pointed to a nurse who within seconds of sitting down had injected the Pfizer in my arm and sent me to sit in another area for 10 minutes 'just in case' she said - smiling! After that I joined a small line and was given a card with an appointment for 1st April for part 2 and gently ushered out, into the car and back home within 30 minutes of having left! Saturday morning and unbelievable the way they have it organised. I cannot find the point on my arm where it went in and - so far - not a single feeling or after-effect - only not to drink alcohol for a couple of days although that was advice not an instruction. Anyone in any doubt then accept that this injection does not have any living organisms so no fear of that and everything is very, very simple - do not be daft and refuse it if your turn comes. Will let you know in a few days time if anything changes or happens. Stay safe all!

  4. There is much more to it than this. First off, the right information is out there, literally everywhere. I haven't had to read an academic paper to relay what I told you, it's on Sky News and the BBC literally every day for the past year. If you're curious about the different measures that I described you can look it up pretty easily and find the information I posted above. I follow a lot of news and politics stuff on Twitter so maybe I know a bit more than the average Joe but the people who spout the shite we're talking about have chosen to commit to the conspiracy that the mainstream media, or the 'lamestream' media as many of them call it, are complicit in the con. Don't ask them what the conspirators' motivation is, because they can't name it. They've been given the information and rejected it. This isn't like Brexit, where the right information was drowned out by the shouting of lies and false rhetoric by a number of prominent and reputable public figures to the point that you could understand why a lot of people voted for the option of something that was clearly worse. This is people rejecting cold, hard facts that every reputable source is in agreement on. And there are plenty of phone-ins where people ring in with this nonsense and get taken apart. More of them prefer Twitter and Reddit where they can block people who rip them to shreds with science and evidence or hide in a sub-reddit of like-minded dangerous individuals, that's the bigger problem. I honestly wouldn't waste your time and energy worrying about these people. Give them the facts, that's all you can do, if they reject the facts then it's time to move on and it's on them if life teaches them the hard way the lesson of listening to science and people who actually know things. I am interested to know, though, what the take of the world's leading psychologists is on why people end up in this hole. I'm yet to see a convincing explanation but the best one so far is that people in the Western world especially have just lived such a comfortable life and taken it for granted for so long that they're simply incapable of processing this lose-lose scenario where lockdown is terrible, but not having lockdown would have even more terrible consequences.

  6. By how much? Less than a thousand and that's being generous for me. Roughly 1% of people might have died anyway, I wouldn't even say that much. That's not enough to cede ground to the anti-sciencers I'm afraid. It's a method of counting that includes a small but acceptable and insignificant possibility of error which is quite common in statistical analysis.

  7. Hopefully, I can be around a lot longer to see all the space adventures until I end up above in the heavens and looking around me 'Space, the Final Frontier' for me when it happens

  9. Have fun. Still have the N64 cartridges of both, though I will warn you that Goldeneye has not aged well at all. For me, I've finally completed Kiryu's journey with Yakuza 6 and while I have Judgement ready and waiting, I need a chnage of pace after going through 3-6 in succession. Crash 4 is next @Mpache.

  13. They don't believe that the government should interfere in the market much, they think laissez-faire market = free people. They are so obsessed with resisting government tyranny they are openly bootlicking corporate tyranny. Which is ironic because they elected a business man because he '[isn't a politician]' and will '[run the country like a business]'. They worship the entrepreneur to the point of money being enough for fame. An American would be mortified if their high fructose corn syrup beverage was farmed at a government facility (it's okay that the government subsidises corn farming though), it would be stigmatised for not being a fancy 'designer brand name'.

  14. This is taken from a twitter chain and a reddit user made it a little easier to read. Basically the guy compiled and timelined alot of the events and players involved, If you have some time it places alot of pieces of the puzzle together that you might have heard before. It doesnt get into the information side of things or the slow response time theres even more to dig into but it paints a real good picture. heres the guys twitter as well for reference if youd prefer https://mobile.twitter.com/SethAbramson/status/1349142068061478912?s=07
