    It’s a notifiable disease so it’s supposed to be monitored through NOID, but checking the latest report there were supposedly only four cases last week, which seems like obvious nonsense.

      Covid-19 is ravaging several continents. To suggest it is located in one country alone is simply incorrect.

      I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, you’re absolutely right.

      Everyone has had the opportunity for multiple vaccinations, people also know that the chance of COVID affecting you severely is correlated with smoking and obesity, everyone has had plenty of time to lose weight and give up smoking.

      Honestly, if COVID is still an issue for you, it’s on you at this point.

      Then you also have to ask “what if we see a huge rise in COVID numbers?”. Do you want another set of lock downs? Do you want the government to print another £250 billion and spend it on things that have no intrinsic value and then act surprised when we get 10% inflation and no payrises? Literally, what is the point of recording COVID numbers?

      The flunis endemic, we still report on it. Hiding or ignoring information is just foolish when managing public health.

      It’s manages with vaccines, and other measures.
