Its Sabbath

Our neighbour believes God has a plan
A cross on your door will save a man
But COVID-19
Has its own routine
Culling the daft as fast as it can

I suspect when COVID-19 runs out of the "daft," it will give up! They're saying it's a pandemic of the unvaccinated now. I believe that. What's the big hullabloo about requiring vaccine, masking, etc.? They mandated the polio vaccine for children. Nobody complained when the smallpox vaccine was required. We have become a nation of wusses, me thinks! For once, get a small prick and be done with it!

I shall never forget waiting in the queue for the Salk vaccine! No matter what after-effects the current vaccines may establish, one must still be alive to suffer them!

so true Rico, we will be over run with it soon over 2000 cases since the border opened and it will only get worse with folk from gren and amber countries free to come over if they are double jabbed - no requirements to wear masks or have tests on arrival, its infuriating as we were on 0 cases on 21 june:-( hugs Jan xx

People confirmed double-jabbed are testing positive for the virus during the Olympic games, very clearly establishing we can all pass the virus on to others, so it seems reasonable to me that all unvaccinated adults should immediately be quarantined ......

Ah! That may be the problem, i.e., they all want a bigger prick?

Socially irresponsible adults care less about your unvaccinated grandchildren although COVID-19 can cause lifetime disabilities, so do not fret about losing your temper!
