All I said was 'did you not fly to Germany a few months ago?' 

Happy for feedback on how I can make that less confrontational. 

Most of the confrontation has actually come from some of the more sensitive regulars on here.

Hi Fraybentos1....  my post was deliberately not directed at anyone in particular, sorry if you took it personally. 
Sending much love, take care of yourself and others, hope to enjoy a cider with you in June. x

I think on a music festival message board it’s a legitimate question to ask. It doesn’t suggest the OP doesn’t give a shit about anything else. Of course there are much bigger things to be worrie

So...OX/AZ, blood clots, suspension of vaccinations, politics, vaccine hesitancy, convoluted data, PR problems, Brexit, EU procurement naivety, poor logistics, national identity...there’s an awful lot

A while since I/we posted because just like everyone else we get fed up of this shit. So just like to say..... For the first time since last March we are free of covid patients 😊

Genuine question: why do you come to this thread when everyone who posts in it just seems to wind you up? I don't get it.

It's often good source of information especially from experts like Toilet Duck. But yes, a few people do wind me up of course and I largely ignore them.

I also only brought it up again cause you asked me two questions which i answered.

Fair enough. Time for us all to move on now then!

The fish issue just won't go away ...

People suffering from 'long COVID' are reporting a strong smell of fish, sulphur and a sweet sickly odour, as further symptoms of the virus emerge.

Maybe I've got long covid. I assumed the weird smell was one of my housemates. He's never had the best personal hygiene, and sporadic work and lockdowns really hasn't helped

Over a long enough timeline then yes, of course your chance of getting it will be 100%, assuming the virus never goes away and you never get vaccinated.

If you mean on a one off visit to a pub? Not anywhere near close.

Cases are considered at a high level (Tier 4 restrictions) at around about 400 in 100,000. Let’s be generous and double that to allow for the untested cases. So even now with cases at what are deemed high very high levels about 1% of the population have it right now, how could your chances of getting it be anywhere near 100%
 

But if we relax restrictions and that number doubles then it’s 2%. Which is 1 in 50. So at least one in every busy pub. And if the new strand can spread easily in a pub to others in the pub without contact.... even if not, the exponential growth is real. From 1% it only needs to double 8 times to hit 100%.

So on another note..... I’m stepping out for a bit (thread beginning to stress me again!) Going to fix my sons car. In the cold. It seems to have deposited most of its oil on my drive over Xmas day. Back later with progress update.....

That was a bit crude...

Tiers being reviewed again in only 3 days. Doesnt appear to me that any area not in tier 4 is seeing any decrease in cases. In fact the opposite, even in Cornwall cases are now more than doubling every week. Do we think all areas to go into tier 4 on Wednesday? (Or at least announced wednesday)

Zero chance, Northern Ireland are in what is basically Tier 5 - same as Tier 4 with  no outdoor exercise with people outside your own household allowed, for 6 weeks from Boxing Day - with a review after 4.

It’s never, in any situation going to be a 100% chance you get Covid, however much it mutates and however high case numbers per 100,000 realistically get.

The highest risk setting for spreading Covid is within households, even then the chance of a symptomatic person spreading it to another member of the household is only 20%: (asymptomatic 3.5%)

Just read an article actually and it says no outdoor exercise with people outside your own household, luckily not a ban on leaving your house at all
