Why would travelling be more dangerous ? - do they mean travelling to the shops ?

Is this 'variant' any more dangerous than all the others ?................ not so far

Why the panic ?

I’m triple jabbed under 65 yrs in a self contained motorhome away from the UK ….. risk assessment says GO

 

[Dutch 68]

Boris follows the science, so next week the announcement will be made, travel ban for all over sixties, and just like mask wearing, adherence will be expected, now that would be a serious unpopular measure……, but nothing surprises me anymore

Oh I really hope not

 

[Sandancers]

Maybe the Gov. will bring in a £200 fine for any over 60s found more than a mile from home.

So if your 1.5 miles from home and without a mask that's £400 thank you.....Kerching !! Soon pay off the National Debt that way.

And on an unrelated subject. Doctors are now to be paid £15 per jab they do. £20 on Sundays and Bank Hols. 400 Army personnel will also be administering jabs.............................no information as to if they will be getting the same rate of pay.....................Any guesses ?

 

[EuroTrotters]

I would give my honest opinion on that. But last time my post was removed.

So…………………..

On the News tonight it stated 400 Army personnel to assist in the Vaccination Process, not that they will be actually jabbing ?

 

[Colino]

I think its because the government realise that the over 60's are the ones with the money, and they would prefer to see them spend it in the UK.

 

[EuroTrotters]

And would say it’s “………………,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,…………”.

I'm 63 (next week) triple jabbed, and I have had covid..
No one has advised me NOT to travel to work in a Care Home even when there are active cases..

 

[Kirsten]

Is it Me? I am over 60 but don’t identify self as ‘ vulnerable ‘ and certainly hope I do not resemble the stereotypical people in the photo attached to this ‘fact laden ‘ ooops mean fact free - article.
I think a trigger warning ( whatever that actually means ) should be attached to such spurious information and a guide with flow chart diagram showing us feeble minded oldies whether it is best to shoot selves or start a revolution ....

The Army is full of well trained Combat Medic’s, putting a needle in someone’s arm won’t be an issue to them.

Follow Greece in issuing a fine of one hundred euro's for over sixties who are not vaccinated. This fine will be followed up each month until you have proof of vaccine.

 

[Janine]

The WHO report seems to state over 60’s who haven’t been vaccinated. Sloppy journalism again?
