Coronavirus

I think I might have anticipated this coming. I think a lot more of my fears which were voiced in this thread for the last 15 months will also prove true in time.

Imagine this is where we are at. Coercion? Nah

Isn't that going to be the way anyhow, no vaccine no doing anything?

Gone beyond a joke now.

Update: Woke up this morning and went from the being hit by a bus feeling yesterday to feeling relatively normal today.....mental!!

First jab yesterday - Pfizer - no problems - didn't even feel the needle. I was talking through my hole to yer man though so that probably distracted me. 

Don't have a sore arm or feel ill. Only thing I could say was that I get a dull sensation when I lift my arm over my head.

It'll be like trying to get served when you were underage all over again, sticking your photo on your mates vaccine pass to get in and have a cheeky pint.

This will be some fuckin' craic to enforce.

"Hi, I'm on €8.50 an hour. Can I see your ID and vaccination info? Please don't thump the shite out of me."

"It's just 2 weeks to flatten the curve" has certainly grown legs. If I can be arsed to find it, I said in a rant here sometime last year that everywhere we saw the words "Face Covering" that we would soon be replacing it with "Proof of Vaccination".

Make no mistake, this is a very fucking slippery slope from here, even for those who are vaccinated. It is only going to get worse once this gets in the door, if we all simply accept it. The whole point of this charade continuing to this day is to get those vaccine papers through. Otherwise it would have ended in Feb or March.

Has anybody actually looked at the laughable projections that were used to justify the 2 week delay? They are beyond fucking laughable and if I made them here I'd be laughed off the board. To say that we would have another couple of thousand deaths by September and a couple of hundred thousand cases is actual fucking madness. Seriously.

Not a hope is all of this still about a novel virus. Not a hope. The profiteers have their foot in the door and they won't be taking it out any time soon. Watch.

It's depressing how timeframes have been lengthened and what's been required of us is getting more and more.
I only go out to do shopping, there's fuck all else to do.

If you don't want to get vaccinated, just go out of your way to get infected instead: if you can show you've recovered from COVID within the previous 9 months, you'll be eligible for indoor access too!

Holohan has been itching for years to kill off the drinking culture in Ireland - he probably gets down on his knees and thanks that Chinese lab every night for giving him this opportunity.

Y'know I've thought about that. Getting an antibody test to see. But then what happens after 9 months, or indeed if vaccinated what happens when it's booster time? That's right - more shots for all! I had 50 doses of the Janssen in my hand the other day and I really got down to thinking about how small and yet so massive those 10 little vials really were, and I pondered the whole situation for quite some time and really I'm still none the wiser as to how as a society we have all come to accept this situation so readily.

I have a great book "The Coming of the Third Reich" and it describes the inexorable descent into madness in great detail and how subtle it all was at the time vs simply reading of the massive and main events. It was so subtle and so many side roads on that journey that it's almost amazing how it all came together. Not the war itself, just the situation that allowed the rise of the Nazi party. I see now how subtle it all is, the change in mentality in people at all levels, the Us and Them, the distrust, the propaganda and fuck knows what else.. frightening stuff.

This whole thing of being sick until proven healthy is one of the most fucked up notions we've ever come to accept, and yet here we are..

Don't give up man; carry on kampfing.

"This whole thing of being sick until proven healthy is one of the most fucked up notions we've ever come to accept, and yet here we are.."

YEAH, it's absolute bullshit, "All you people who are well, you stay indoors away from people and then get a vaccination to continue not being well". BOLLOCKS!
