He was Wednesday through and through, this is the first person I know who's passed away. So let's not get complacent, time will come when we can go and enjoy it properly, like we used to. Keep yourselves safe. UTO!!! Sorry for your loss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could then still catch another strain that's doing the rounds. With covid-19 the vaccines specifically target covid-19 so the efficacy rate will be far far higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, I think the powers that be are very concerned. If covid gets well out of hand, may as well put closed signs on hospitals and gp's surgeries. That is what they are trying to avoid...no idea if the route they are taking is the right one... Seems to me though, most of the world are taking the same path.
