OMG! What an alarmist crock! Shades of the 1700's!
there were plenty people who didn't comply here in 20/21 ...and they were arrested... now they have a criminal record...If they had to stop because people stopped complying, you could go anywhere.![]()
Did they ever ask you to wear masks in school? I think not...think about that, then tell me some in government are not playing with us...I will do whatever i need or am asked to do. The outrage about government control rings so very false to me. I grew up with mandatory school vaccinations and a draft. My….how twisted it has all become.
That really is sad, especially since most all medical practices agree that masks do NOTHING to stop viruses. Masks are only worn in medicine to avoid bacterial infections...there were plenty people who didn't comply here in 20/21 ...and they were arrested... now they have a criminal record...
Who knows...beggared if I do... but believe me it happened... also people were being arrested for sitting on a bench in the park. Why couldn't people sit on a bench in the park?... a huge park no-one near anybody.. why could people here only go as far as their nearest park when they were allowed to go out..why did people get stalked by drone by the Police.. and some arrested for rambling in the huge outdoor Peak District..essentially a national park... why were people fined for not wearing a mask on the train or tube to work..?... giving them criminal records...?That really is sad, especially since most all medical practices agree that masks do NOTHING to stop viruses.

So why would your leaders "arrest" someone who chooses not to wear a mask?
Your country has fallen a long way since WWII....Who know...beggared if I do... but believe me it happened... also people were being arrested for sitting on a bench in the park.

welll tbf WW2 was 80 years ago... a great deal has changed in the world since then...however in the last 15 years in the UK... we've dropped further down the well than we've ever dropped before... It's not the country it was even 20 years ago... nowhere near !! It's heartbreaking to see a once mighty , proud nation, evolved into what it is todayYour country has fallen a long way since WWII....
I have always loved the English for how they stood alone against Germany! I am sorry to see all that has changed. As you know the USA has fallen in many of the same ways. I hate seeing it here also.welll tbf WW2 was 80 years ago... a great deal has changed in the world since then...however in the last 15 years in the UK... we've dropped further down the well than we've ever dropped before...

I agree but there are lots of us willing to fight for those freedoms still. The world has changed a lot. In WWII young men lied about their ages so they could enlist and fight for their countries. Now boys lie about their gender so they can beat girls in girls' sports. It's a sad change for sure. But I really don't feel like this is anywhere near done. We need strong people to emerge and organize and guide.I have always loved the English for how they stood alone against Germany! I am sorry to see all that has changed.

I fear something may happen in time that will again threaten our remaining freedoms...it seems like the whole world is walking towards socialism...
tells me a lot...I got itEverybody I know caught covid at least once whether they took precautions or not, were vaccinated or not. Sadly this doesn't tell us much.![]()
You mean you caught covid? Some people seem to catch it more than others and I really do wonder why.tells me a lot...I got it
there is no way on this earth that my parents who were born in the 20's and 30's could ever have imagined the world as it is today...I agree but there are lots of us willing to fight for those freedoms still.

well I'm 68... and I can tell you it's only in the last 20 years things have changed massively... I could start telling you why, but it involves politics and other subjects that are not PC these days.. so i won't..I have always loved the English for how they stood alone against Germany!

Holly, by the way, I am in my 70's and 80 years ago doesn't seem so long ago from my perspective...and yes much has changed...
I get it! We are going through much of the same in the USA.well I'm 68... and I can tell you it's only in the last 20 years things have changed massively... I could start telling you why, but it involves politics and other subjects that are not PC these days.. so i won't..
Boosters are designed to deal with new variants of the Covid virus, variants that are not defeated by the original vaccines. Some of us, me included, may still get the disease, but it will be weakened by up to date vaccination and less likely to be lethal or require hospitalization. There have been more than a million Covid deaths in the United States. Don’t be one of those.I had a Phizer shot and then got Covid
so why would I do that again?

Exactly! I find it shameful that as seniors we are told if we don't comply with vaccines or masking, that we a making a big mistake for ourselves and endangering others.El Castor, with all due respect, I think we're all educated on this topic. It's now a personal choice to get a shot or not. Now that there is a new "up-to-date" Booster shot, some intelligently weigh the pros and cons of what might be discovered down the line that could be harmful to us short-term or long-term. We now have a long history of ongoing improvements to medications of all sorts that constantly evolve in the hopes to find a winning combination.
Aren't you at all concerned about putting "new updated" poisons (for lack of a better word since it's truthfully what boosts our immune system while compromising other good stuff in our systems) that they may one day discover, yet again, that it is harmful to us?
I agree with @StarSong regarding wearing a KN95 mask...no harm there. But I think a lot of us are just tired of all the new negative and serious findings of shots and meds that turn out to cause worse symtoms in the long run...like Miocarditis in children for one. My son almost died of Miocarditis after a helicopter ride to Children's Hospital in Washington DC and a 2 week stay...it was a complete nightmare with lasting affects.
I'm not saying this new Booster isn't better...but only time will tell. It's a risk some are not willing to take based on what we now know from experience. Plus, some have been told by their doctors that they must not take it. We don't know other peoples business.
I'm certainly not trying to deter you from taking it....it's a personal choice. Please do your own thing. Life is all about choices...everyday. What's good for one may not be good for another. So, I wouldn't try to push others to take a road they haven't chosen. They are smarter than you give them credit.
