Alan Murray Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Things are looking very good long term with this virus. Looks a strong possibility a vaccine will be deployed tail end of this year. The Oxford vaccine has a 91+% proficiency according to phase one and two trials. If this is correct and gains approval then we can expect things to look positive going into the New Year. Questions though, people who have had the vaccine do they avoid any restrictions with gaining entry to stadiums? What happens to players who refuse the vaccine? I am sure there are plenty of other valid questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Aye less of this talking crap (tho' I don't know who is). On this day of all days. For today's the anniversary of the death of the Temptations'papa. OK he was an itinerant sponging work shy con man. And a suspected bigamist as well. Still a shame all the same. Altogether now.......

After 50% of the population have the vaccine the virus struggles to find hosts get that up to 80% and it will probably be gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he never, your making your own crap up. Uk classes numbers who have tested positive for COVID not those who have died of it, hence why the 1st minister states “With COVID mentioned on their death certificate” so do they measure of or with? Norway (Unlike UK) carry’s out postmortems and only counts deaths off COVID. We have 264 in total, of that 13 are under the age of 60 (11 men and 2 women), 24 are from 60 to 69, 61 deaths from 70 to 79, 92 deaths from 80 to 89, with the remaining 74 in the age bracket 90+. This is from a country the same population as Scotland, we are given clear and transparent information to allow us to make judgements, no daily broadcasts, no PR slogans, no gimmicks. Unlike other countries we have been fully transparent, and not whipped up a government led panic via the media with false data points. The government breaks all data (tests, cases, admissions, ICU’s, deaths) down, by location, age and sex.

Auld Jag Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Due to the current lockdown measures in Glasgow, no test games will be allowed in Glasgow until these measures are eased again. Meanwhile in England Cambridge's home games against Fulham U 21's in the EFL trophy and league 2 game against Carlisle will have crowds. The EFL trophy game will have a crowd of 1000 and the league 2 game will have an attendance of 2500. I look forward to @elevenone confirming the crowds once the games are played. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CDR is a US agency dealing with US contagion. And I quote from YOUR link White House coronavirus advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci debunked online theories promoted by President Donald Trump that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has changed its guidance for tallying coronavirus deaths, showing a fraction of total Covid-19 fatalities. On Sunday, Twitter removed a post retweeted by Trump that claimed the CDC had “quietly” updated its guidance to indicate only 6% of the country’s coronavirusdeath toll — roughly 9,000 deaths — was actually caused by the virus, according to a CNN report. The tweet said the remaining 94% had “other serious illnesses. “So the numbers you’ve been hearing -- there are 180,000-plus deaths -- are real deaths from Covid-19. Let (there) not be any confusion about that.” “It’s not 9,000 deaths from Covid-19, it’s 180-plus-thousand deaths,” Fauci said. “ If you can’t understand the article you quote and the context it is written in I’d advice not to quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Anybody else a bit suspicious about how pharmaceutical companies appear to be developing anti-Covid vaccines at amazing speeds, apparently in months, and have them tested and presumably approved for sale by the millions...... when normally it takes years for vaccines to get through all the pre-clinical and clinical trials and safety checks to ensure that there are no long-term negative effects on people, or on their as-yet unborn children? There is a lot of money at stake for these companies, possibly their biggest ever bonanza. Just a thought. Not a vaccine, of course, but remember Thalidomide?: "Perfectly safe." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of money at stake for these companies, possibly their biggest ever bonanza. Just a thought. Not a vaccine, of course, but remember Thalidomide?: "Perfectly safe." You make a good point. No one has developed a vaccine or is close to realising one yet. Remember we were told by via the media a couple of months back that one would be ready by September? Well its September and nothing so far (unless you fancy giving the Russian vaccine a go). The best case timescale was 18 months to 2 years which means maybe by the end of 2021. The Pharmacy companies have made a lot of money out of politicians who throw money at any indication of a vaccine but then again the politicians are the one who created this market by saying a vaccine is just around the corner rather than telling the public that lifestyle changes were long term. I would hope that in a few months time a public enquiry is launched into what money was thrown at pre-ordering vaccines before they had been tested, the relationship between the politicians running those companies and the government. Whilst they are at it a close look at what money was flung at IT companies to come up with apps to help with test and trace would I think be an eye opener. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) I'm at the stage where I'd volunteer to catch this. Be a battery hen and ride it out with medical support. Bored of it. Going mad. Looking at economic impact and more worried about that. Looking at other people's actions and despairing while understanding how teenagers and yoof are not socially distancing. I'd go to football with mask on, socially distanced and promise to be quiet. Anyone who shouts out gets chucked out by full PPE wearing bouncers then hosed down outside. Was even tempted to stand outside Hampden and listen to game on radio tonight. I'm 42. That's not normal. Luckily wife is going out so I need to stay in with kids. But maybe I could get them into the double buggy and sleep?
