as johnson/sunak have proved 3/4 times the short term efforts of late action to keep london economy open has resulted in worse health and wealth outcomes,
sunak now throwing billions more 7,500 at those supposed 3 million self empployed whove missed out, sunak who,d closed the purse strings in nov has now opened them again to stop people talking about his catastrophic EAT OUT TO DIE OUT AT 50% off,which stopped numbers reaching a lower plateau country wide |

"I've read on here that 20 million are 'at risk'. Is this correct, and are a lot of them at risk simply because they are overweight?"
Nobody should be expected to be locked down just to protect some lazy fat slobs. They have all had time to diet now and the fact they havent shows how little regard they have for themselves. Why the rest of us should give a damn ive no idea. Its time for compulsory diets for the obese and forced marches (socially distanced of course) to get them into shape. |

We know it is 13 million from the vaccination target.

Fattest nation in Europe, most deaths in Europe, coincidence?

Lib Dems and Greens would win every election if you got rid of all the overweight folks.

I think Malta is fatter than the UK
 |

By:
I’m fat , and I can’t speak on behalf of anyone else
but in my case it’s down to greed and laziness |
|
By:
It is mainly self inflictd to be sure, now they want all healthy people locked up to save themselves.
|
|
By:
Quite right

Don’t forget some fat people might have a medical condition
The rest of us are just gluttons |

We won't see over 200 reported deaths in the UK again on a single day, unless it's a backdating of missing data. |

Almost a third of the population' at risk' is a shameful indictment of the health of the UK.

a lot said about the elderly and children,has anyone thought about the 20-39 year olds who are going to work coming home eating sleeping and repeating.these young people are going stir crazy and have already lost a year of their life.

By:
Yep 19
The 20-39 year olds are the real victims here. The feelings of the millionals are not being considered. It should be number 1 priority to make sure Glastonbury happens this year. All those heartless people going on about 120,000 people losing their lives or 500,000 needing hospital treatment. Time for a big fund raising effort for those who are missing out on a trip to the nightclub. |

you wonder why everyone thinks your a clown.

Went to hospital t'other day. Lots of fat health professionals. WTF are they playin at?
|

By:
Everyone 19?
Or just everyone who dropped out of school, don't have a job but do have a large collection of shiny hats? Define everyone. Oh those poor 20-39 year olds. Bless them, they have suffered. Shall we forget about the 120,000 who have/will die of covid. We "need" Glastonbury for the real victims, those aged 20-39. Poor loves. |

When we have social distancing then cases decrease, hospital admissions fall and deaths decrease. It has been tried,it works. Tier1 a d tier2 are not fit for purpose. |

By:
We have had social distancing for 10 months.

If you want your oven cleaned you can go on the internet and someone will be around tomorrow. Yes he is trying to make a living too but essential?
Ireland has shut all construction this evening. Has the UK? No, they are getting on the tube/buses mixing with other trades. The take up of nursery/school places has been staggering,it seems they are so many "essential" workers. Traffic volumes in London are high, emm haven't people been told to work from home? Whatever about March, is it really a "lockdown"? |

Next you will be saying going to Starbucks or a garden centre isn't essential. But but but what about the poor 20-39 year olds. They are the real victims , not the hundreds of thousands in needing hospital treatment. |

I think everyone feels this Mexico,i'd be loathe to separate age,picture of a party in Blarney Co Cork doing the rounds with over a 100 at it last night.
Fair to say this "wave" has been driven by the age group,i won't be a hyprocrite and say if i was young i could have been a part of it. I don't know what it is as said last week on another thread,whether cold weather,variant a lot more transmissionable but i can't fathom why the numbers are so high,measures were lax and slow but 50/60k for over a week and not going down has me puzzled. |

Plus, of course, excess deaths are compared to years without covid. The human race has a new disease, which isn't included in the benchmark (obvious, but never mentioned) Er....that's why the increase in deaths is down to COVID and therefore excess deaths versus previous years !!!! |
|
By:
Yes. So the point is that in a five years the five year average will include five years of history with covid, whereas it doesn't include any now. In March, it will begin to have an impact on the benchmark.

Mexico has gradually been losing the plot for weeks. Throwing out silly examples like Glastonbury to put down the younger generations sacrifices does him no credit whatsoever. For a man of undoubted intelligence its embarrassing.

"Why should the youngsters have their lives ruined when the virus causes them little harm ? Love this one. They're not having their lives ruined. They're getting a valuable lesson in privilege and understanding that the kind of freedoms we regularly enjoy aren't to be taken for granted"
I stopped reading the thread at this, how can anyone reason with individuals that think young people are privileged simply because they are young and the basic freedoms any human being outside a concentration camp has of walking the streets implying it is some kind of honour that shouldn't be taken for granted. Apparently " they being taught a lesson" by having educations wrecked, businesses going under, social lives ruined, futures damaged. People with this type of ridiculous mentality are the type to clap carers on the doorsteps like demented seals screaming save the NHS and then go indoors for a drink and a cig. |

By:
I said it on a different thread, millions sacrificed in world wars to preserve the future for the next generation. Now the next generation are being sacrificed for the people that have already lived longer than any time in human history.

In my view, predominately down to social media and the 24 hour corrupted news cycle.
|

By:
Both wolf 23.47 and Cider 23.57 are spot on.
|
|
By:
I don’t think young people are having their lives ruined . Imo they should be leaving school at 16 and starting work
|
|
By:
It’s also their job to come up with new ideas , we’re waiting
|
|
By:
Maybe they will decide en masse to get on with their lives.
|
|
By:
I suggest they decide to try and do something that hasn’t been done before . I know that’s very difficult
But that’s their job |
|
By:
So you dont mean **** up the climate spend all the oil money and run up the National debt to unsustainable levels?
|
|
By:
No , I mean something like bill gates and his friend steve Wazniak , working in their parents garage at the age of 14, designing things tinkering and changing the world
Or maybe like Lennon and McCartney or the wright brothers That sort of thing |
|
By:
Yes you are right. Do something really positive as those few did rather than the generation as a whole.
|
|
By:
Well you know it’s surprising once the Beatles had shown the way how many more hundreds , thousands of young people from all walks of life
found to I’m sure their own amazement they could also do something that had never been done before |
