Ain’t getting tested, where are all the positive cases coming from?
Obviously no link to the none mask wearers who refuse to get tested. DurrI am sure you will find a link.
I meant a link to the story...Obviously no link to the none mask wearers who refuse to get tested. Durr
They can still transmit it to other people who then do get tested. I have to do the lateral flow tests twice a week for work. If I encounter someone who is asymptomatic and not wearing a mask there is the, admittedly slim, chance that I could get it.Ain’t getting tested, where are all the positive cases coming from?
So folk who are getting positive tests have caught it from those who don’t wear a mask etc etc. Can’t be many left who haven’t had it that don’t wear a mask.

There is no real evidence that asymptomatic transmission of Covid-19 is a thing. For someone to be infected from person to person contact, they would need a level of infection high enough to overcome that persons immune system.They can still transmit it to other people who then do get tested.

Your profile pic - not a good move.There is no real evidence that asymptomatic transmission of Covid-19 is a thing. For someone to be infected from person to person contact, they would need a level of infection high enough to overcome that persons immune system.
Like all viruses, the SARS Cov 2 is everywhere but the concentrations are small and the immune system shrugs it off, for you to be infected enough to make you ill you need a high concentration, ie a substantial viral load. For that to happen the viral load in the person passing it on would have to be very high indeed which would put them at home, in bed, feeling rather unwell.
Christ SF, stop looking silly and read the post...So if nobody is well enough to pass it on, it must be all an elaborate hoax?
That's cleared that up then.
Meanwhile my friends in India somewhat disagree with your analysis.
And nice cultural misappropriation for bonus points.
It is certainly provocative. It is something I feel quite strongly about.Your profile pic - not a good move.
How come all the dickheads on here quote friends that always live on a different continent.So if nobody is well enough to pass it on, it must be all an elaborate hoax?

Careful, you’ve triggered em!Your profile pic - not a good move.
I had staff in India. Your point?How come all the dickheads on here quote friends that always live on a different continent.
Either liars or boring cunts that anyone they come in contact with fucks off as far away as possible from them
You don’t seem to think it is? Not wearing a piece of cloth over your mouth or not taking the jab, is really not equatable to what happened in WW2.It is certainly provocative. It is something I feel quite strongly about.
I'll change it if to really feel it is inappropriate.
Anti vaxxers have been told on this forum that they 'should be in jail', 'barred from pubs and restaurants' and 'forced to work in a covid ward without PPE'.You don’t seem to think it is? Not wearing a piece of cloth over your mouth or not taking the jab, is really not equatable to what happened in WW2.
Surprised that someone like yourself that claims to take all things into consideration before reaching a conclusion, has decided to do something so attention-seeking.
They will be threatening to break your windows next. It’ll be interesting to read what the responses are, whether they will address your comments or just throw in a lot of whatsboutery or disappear up their own arsehole (which is the norm)Anti vaxxers have been told on this forum that they 'should be in jail', 'barred from pubs and restaurants' and 'forced to work in a covid ward without PPE'.
The final solution started with 'everyday' street attacks and boycotting the wrong sort of peoples businesses.
We all know where it ended. Believe me, I did take 'all things into consideration'.
Getting lectured by an Irving fan-boy...I'm sure your mate would have a lot to say about the origins of the badge in AFC's profile pic.They will be threatening to break your windows next.

I’ll get the popcorn ready.
Just answer AFC’s points.Getting lectured by an Irving fan-boy...I'm sure your mate would have a lot to say about the origins of the badge in AFC's profile pic.

Guess I’ve always been classed as left wing. In my day the left were the ones who opposed the establishment and the right upheld it. Embarrassingly it’s turned full circle.It is interesting, we have people, on this very forum, who seem to support 'cancel culture' and are happy to see people with the' wrong opinions' have their careers, their lives destroyed.
I consider myself to be 'right wing', but my reality is that I support independence of thought, self reliance, free speech and, equality of opportunity.
Those kinds of thoughts put me in a minority at the present time, sure some of the problems arise from some serious and very nasty government propaganda, but rather a lot of people are buying into this narrative. This may well start with simple social exclusion, but we all know where it ends.
That is a very astute observation.Guess I’ve always been classed as left wing. In my day the left were the ones who opposed the establishment and the right upheld it. Embarrassingly it’s turned full circle.
I handed the baton over to this lot and they fucked it up.
Reality is there is no left and right any more. It’s the establishment that needs opposing. Maybe that was always the case but it’s much more clearer now with the platforms we have due to the internet. I think this is how the woke generation has grown. They’re still stuck in the 80’s and need a cause, even if they have to make one up or take a lead from the establishment to be given a cause.That is a very astute observation.
Rather foolishly (as it turned out) I explained that I stood against the NF some 40 years ago in demonstrations that were, in the main, organised by the left with the SWP (or its predecessor) at the forefront. The issue was so clear and straight forward that supporting some of my friends who were more deeply involved was a 'no brainer'.
But things have changed, as they do, authoritarianism is the enemy, whether from the left or the right. I am not a socialist but I have no problem with supporting people 'of the left' who genuinely want to help people, promote equality of opportunity and encourage people to be the best that they can, there is definitely a place for that, even in a mostly capitalist society.
Of course they are. What they say on social media and what they do in real life is different for so many people. I sometimes think some people might be liars and hypocrites occasionally. I'm a bit cynical like that.Back to OP, who says non maskers / non vaxxers are not getting tested?
I understand why they don't wear masks and don't get vaxxed, but why would they not get tested if they thought they had symptoms? Or if they were required to do a test for other reasons?
Those that I speak to or read on Twitter (you can only go on face value) are absolute that they will not get tested or have the vaccination. But more to the point. I’m sure many many tens of thousands who claim to have tested positive who have religiously followed Boris’ advice and stayed home, washed their hands while singing happy birthday and wore a mask. How on earth did they catch it if those that haven’t done any of it have not. (Yes I’m generalising buy the numbers that the MSM keep throwing about something isn’t adding up.Back to OP, who says non maskers / non vaxxers are not getting tested?
