We've had a few doctors who were signing forms saying people couldn't have the jab when there was no reason for them not to, they've been struck off.

I was amazed to read of a young GP in France who has had to shut down his surgery as he was frightened of the vaccine.

Sylvia not only can you not go see your daughter, now you can't dance the night away at your favourite nightclub!! :-D :-D

Our numbers are hovering in the 3000's after a day in the 4's which sounds incredibly low compared to the UK I know, Quebec have called the army in to help again I believe they're in the 4's.

I agree Zzz anyone that thinks this isn't real should be on the front line with no PPE and give others the break they're so overdue.

Anyone who feels that Boris has made the wrong decision is free ( unless they work in the emergency services, the nhs or service industry) to construct their own lockdown.

There are jab protesters, people who refuse the jab because they think it doesn't exist so put them on the hospital wards to help help the nurses but they and I don't mean the nurses won't get it because it doesn't exist.

Yeah the English have the omniprescent Boris Johnson who has decided to ride things out rather than take undue notice of unelected health experts. New cases are running at 90 000 / day but hey ho .....

'So I commended enjoyment, because a man has nothing better under the sun than to eat, drink, and be merry; for this will remain with him in his labor all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.'
