It's good to hear that members of CT are receiving their vaccinations, good luck to all those yet to have theirs. It seems like a long haul till we get everyone sorted and hear the results of the present vaccines.

I'm leaving this open for non political comments as per the guidelines. Hope you can add your own experiences and thoughts.

My first jab comes up tomorrow, I'm so glad we have research institutions that have got us this far! And I am planning breaks away in the hope of improvements on the horizon.

DT, I have no problem at all with you or anyone else having a different opinion to the mainstream view. What I do take issue with is the attempt to spread misinformation and posts made with the deliberate intention of winding people up.

I am a person, not a gang, and find the use of that term, and the implication behind it, offensive. I wouldn’t dream of using it to define you and any like minded people so please have the courtesy to treat those who do not agree with you with respect.

Did I mention you as one of the gang? If the cap fits then wear it. What misinformation am I spreading. If the fact that not agreeing with you winds you or any one else up I can’t help you

I am afraid that at the moment the NHS are only concerned by covid deaths and no other illness matters.

Posted on 16/06/2021 20:09

That is a total load of balloney, and an insult to all those that work for the NHS.

Why is suggesting hearing aids silly when you are hard of hearing please explain. Another one with the trolling accusation. Please explain trolling

Posted on 16/06/2021 20:11

It just shows how ignorant you seem to be with no concept of real life ,hearing aids are not the be all and end all of hearing loss, as I do have hearing aids and they are not from the NHS but a well known specialist hearing aid company and is what they would tell anyone who suffers hearing loss,

But Dave, you conveniently quoted those daily figures when you thought they supported your point of view (remember - "10 deaths today, not bad").

I'm glad you said that, Nellie, and far more politely than I might have done.

We have 3 family members who work for various parts of the NHS and, although things are slightly better right now, they have been stretched to the absolute limit over the past 18 months - not one of them works on a "covid ward".

Yes I do remember and from what I have just read from a reply on here that total could be les than 10 from covid. So they support my point of view even more now
