This New COVID Varient23 Dec 2020 11:48
Does anybody find it weird that whilst all the focus today on the news is about ""this new varient", they are showing every few minutes that there is no suggestion that the varient will make the Pfizer vaccine any less succesfull.
I understand the need to rduce panic and negativity from the public at large whilst they are arranging to get so many people injected as fast as possible, but seriously how can they say that, at this juncture?? And all the while they have any number of Labour spokespeople criticising every move the Government makes, which IMHO serves no purpose other than to breed contempt and destroy trust and respect for what they are doing as news changes very frequently , and you never get alternative stratagies what the Opposition would do if they were in power.
I guess I have been saying this for the best part of a year now, how wonderful it must be to be able to critice everything whilst taking or having not to deal with the consequences of every decision made. And the biggest same old criticism is reserved for making what they call U-Turns, but surely as the scientists uncover new information and this really sounds a pretty serious discovery, we have to change stratagy to combat it??? How the hell can the Government make decisions which suit the entire population, it is impossible, and coming now to mutations, which we have discussed here for some time, they just cannot predict what form the mutations arrive at.
I think the social media and press have a lot to answer for turning this into a political battle field just at a time when we all seriously need to follow guidelines as best as we can, regardless of the short notice we are being given now in a situation which is clearly more serious than many could ever have imagined. I understand everyone has there own opinions and grievances, but regardless of that the point I am making could be over any decisions made. Got that off my chest (a little), but it really is diabolical, ""freedom of press""??? Without a judge and jury, yes,, and none of it IMHO is for any consideration of the people just political ambition, well I think there is a time and place for that. Sorry to bring this up today, rant over, for now...........
