I'm particularly interested in his views on the vulnerability of people to covid who have depleted B cells and CD20 protein.Quote:

nightclubs are a easy target, not many middle aged ( or older ) will care about them shutting and will just say " yes its them youngsters who are spreading it, that'll teach them " ( forgetting maybe they were young once and did a little dancing in the disco and forgetting how the last 2 years have been for these youngsters who should be having the time of their lives enjoying being young )Quote:

The trouble is this sneaky virus has a clever way of mutating fairly quickly Matt so as to evade the body's defences. Scientists are fully aware of this but it seems not all politicians are. Caution has to be our byword.Quote:

Of course, I agree with you but I prefer to listen to impartial scientists rather than politicians. I'm not sure if anyone could ever get this perfectly right; it's an awful situation.Quote:

I always had the feeling he’s been holding stuff back ( boris saying dont tell them this whatever etc…)Let’s hope he’s right about covid becoming more manageable as time goes on, treatments improve, and the virus mutates into something not so serious (like hopefully omicron might be). Like Matt says, clubs, pubs, restaurants and hotels can’t go on like this.
I often think he's holding back because he doesn't want to say something that could undermine the Government's message being delivered that day.Quote:

I reckon he knows it’s going to take about 3-5 years before we get back to anything like normal, but you can’t tell the masses this as they might freak out. Better just tell them little snippets, stay at home, then the vaccines we should be fine, then a booster, just keep it ticking along and before you know it a few years has gone without any anti social behaviour or protests…..Quote:

Yes it might take 3-5; years. We've just got to grin and bear it. If we keep calm well beat itQuote:
