jamiedimon, who is this large drunken crowd of disorderly people you refer to?
While I'm here, what is the relevance of the c5% drop in a volatile aim share got to do with anything?
Well said totally agree with your statement Property. This is Johnson just trying to win back the people.
USA is where we will be properly recognised.
Skippy,
'Look at the USA! India! Europe!! Everywhere. How many times have we seen waning Covid numbers for them to come back up again.'
Exactly this! The situation here on Covid Island is so incredibly detached from the rest of the world. Hard lockdowns and travel bans are still in place across the most of the planet. Trillion dollar industries are still on their knees, hospitals are still overrun and the need for Therapeutics so we can 'live with covid' is stronger than ever.
HPHQ.... I think you misunderstood my post..... I have said
Covid is not going away...we have to learn to live with it..
so treatments are key to that..so I think we agree...!
follow up... I also agree though we need to get back to normal ASAP. Choosing the time though will be important and therapeutics like SNG will give people the confidence to do so.
Hope somebody might know the definitive answer to this..... if I were to test positive for Covid and then unfortunately 2 weeks later was involved in a road traffic accident in which I was killed would I be counted as a "Covid death" in the government's statistics?
All the comments about the UK. synairgen have already done an RNS stating they are focussed on USA. They are in big trouble. Less vaccination. Also huge stock piling for future variants and pandemics. Add in COPD, asthma, other viruses around. Add in USA have a huge insurance culture and can afford this. Thank god they are not focused on UK.
@Oak, I am always very wary of posters who see the need to try and give their post some semblance of credibility by stating 'I've been a holder since.....' (or similar).
As if claiming that you have spent some cash on buying a share or two confers some kind of divine insight! Spoier alert, it doesn't.
Had people been wearing proper face masks (not face coverings) then I think things would have been very different. The philosophy that face masks are there to protect 'others' is only partly true. If people had been wearing properly fitting FFP3 (or even FFP2) masks, transmission would have been very low. I think the main reason this didn't happen was the lack of availability of PPE, so the government told us what they needed us to hear. Also, they are not the most comfortable things to wear so public adoption would have been difficult.
I completely agree with HelloSanDiego on this one.
I also think stopping face masks prematurely and say Covid is over now (just to suit a political narrative) is a mistake.
Manifesto
I couldn't disagree more. I believe we MUST go back to pre-Covid life and it'll be companies like Synairgen that allow to do just that
manifesto. Completely agree with you.
The emperor is naked but at the moment the people don't want to look silly and have convinced themselves that it's all going away.
Mood is transient. We have seen it all before. Covid has not gone away (we have more deaths than we had this time last year) and with 100k new cases yesterday and getting all the commuters back on the trains and the kids without masks at schools - we know what will happen next.
Honestly and I know its anecdotal but where I live it is rife in the schools and amongst parent of school kids.
Those who say masks don't work don't have the desire to investigate whether that is true. Any barrier has some impact on the distribution of the virus. I have seen so many illustrated examples of how masks work to reduce transmission that I can no longer be bothered to argue with anyone who says they don't work. Bojo gave them an excuse not to bother yesterday.
Some very daft comments here but just proves that Poly are still working the board hard and therefore still buying. Migs, you've never once said anything positive about SNG but yes, you have been around for a long time. THEY WANT YOUR SHARES!!!
The 'boat' has not been missed.
wyndrum......Sorry but you are talking absolute nonsense..
Most deaths from Covid are a result of Covid....A minority are underlying conditions..
Face masks do make a difference..Not a complete defence but certainly a difference..
What evidence do you have to support your claims???
It's certainly not too late, Look at the global Covid situation. We can ignore UK government policy for now as it's short term - they will have to plan for next winter when we will either have Omicron breakthrough wave or another variant or both.
Look at the USA! India! Europe!! Everywhere. How many times have we seen waning Covid numbers for them to come back up again.
This was always going to be a very volatile time for the SP - it's actually holding up very well considering UK Covid sentiment. Positive P3 will make this fly. It's hard to wait and I share everyones pain but the boar has not been missed.
Daaaaamn,
Sandiago just broke some ankles!
wyndrum - "Face mask make little or no difference..."
You've been proven wrong time and time again. Most people have known since Victorian times how germs spread.
I see your point but many of those deaths are coincidental. So although 350 covid deaths sounds a little high, many of those were severly ill with other things too and died with the 28 days of positive test.
Time will tell what the landscape will be like in a month or two, as no one on here can concretely tell, I was just giving my thoughts and feelings on where we are.
I've been a holder now for 2 years without selling a share and I don't want my patience to go unrewarded.
Face mask make little or no difference, a great level of reported Covid deaths have been with covid rather than from it.
All society will live with it and while testing will be the biggest casualty from this move to endemic status anti-virals then become the naturally first line of defence for people who are hospitalised with it.
Migs we really have no clue when it comes to Covid19 but as we saw from Delta and Omicron the rules surrounding Coronavirus are anything but simple. With thousands of people dying each day, there is still a great need for SNG001.
You could say that with a lessening of restrictions there will actually be a greater need as most the super pills require you to take them really quickly and with Omicron I know from experience you test positive around 5 days after you catch it.
Years of coronavirus to come unfortunately
350 fatalities a day from covid. Yep the pandemic is over. That's like a jet plane crashing every day, killing everyone on board and no one giving a damn. Whatever ones political stance, Johnson needs to step down. How on earth can a pandemic be managed when the leader of this country has lost all credibility.
I'm not so sure. I'm heavily invested (for me) and I think we may have missed the boat for the more severe covid stuff. I think this is creeping towards the end of the pandemic and that our hope is sales for future viruses and putting SNG on the map for the COPD usages more quickly (stock piling)
The omicron variant was never going to be cause a massive death toll or overcome the health service, the detriment to the health service was staff isolation.
I hope we get the positive news soon because as the weeks slip on I feel we are losing out on the rewards we've hoped for for 12-18 months.
We have someone with a background in Econmics as our Health Secretary...
Medics/Scientists and not politicians should be making these decisions...
I agree we will have to learn to live with Covid and future variants..But
I see face masks as a part of that...We cannot go back to life pre covid...
as it will not go away.....Treatments are crucial to the future, especially
those that limit long covid.....We surely know by now we have to
keep people with Covid out of hospitals ......If P3 are successful
we really are sitting on a gold mine....
"The UK is entering a new chapter in its fight against Covid-19, as Plan B measures are dropped, Sajid Javid says"
I'm not so sure this is good and feel that they may have jumped the gun (politically motivated, maybe). But, with the reduction in mask wearing and other restriction along with the clear move towards 'living with' may well produce the best environment for SNG001 to be the countries goal keeper!
Another, easily transmissible, variant popping up could be really bad news for the UK gov.
Hopefully we can be in place in time!
