Boris to tell over 50s to lockdown..

Fool is a good word. It's weird how we both agree that this government is turning the country into a dictatorship. Yet you can't seem to comprehend that there is a deadly virus out there. A little hint for you, maybe look at what's happening in the rest of the world? Maybe, just educate yourself on that?
Point me to where I've ever denied the virus exists.
 
I don't do civil disobedience but I might just start.
Look at the pubs and restaurants on a weekend, they are full of people in their thirties and forties not observing social distancing. The club I go to take your details, take your temperature and require you sanitise your hands before entering and have sanitising stations all over. They also have signed routes for walking around. Two people have been barred for frequently and purposely breaking the routing rules. They also just happened to be in their early forties.

I said "can't seem" as in a lot of your posts see some sort of conspiracy theory, be it posts about masks, or posts about lockdowns.

You could surmise from that you don't think the virus exists, or the very least you don't care about it being spread.

You mistake not caring with not panicking.

How long in lockdown have you been going to your club and how many pubs have you been to in the same period?
 
Not sure who you mean by boomers. Do you mean the people born in the 1940's, 50's and 60's or later than that?
In my experience it has been the people born much later than that who have been flouting the guidance, albeit it has been when they have been p*sssed. People of my generation, even when drunk, have been managing to stick to the rules.
I really hope this does not turn into another battle between generations.

Easy. Some people of ALL generations have flouted the rules. Just as some people of ALL generations have followed the rules,
Change generation for religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, class... and that’s pretty much covered it, and is pretty close to the truth I think.
Battle over.
 
How long in lockdown have you been going to your club and how many pubs have you been to in the same period?

Just the one club and after it was deemed to be allowed. What is your point?

Added to that I was lucky enough to be employed delivering medication to people during the lock down and appreciate my good fortune in being able to get out of the home for good reason
 
Not panicking, not worrying about vulnerable people getting infected.

Did you worry in December about the 8000 vunerable and healthy people who died from flu? Do you worry about the kids in Yemen dying of starvation?

Whataboutery, look I saved you the hassle of typing it out, yet you are guilty of it just as much as me.

"What about the covid-19 positive deaths?" "Won't somebody think about them, **** every other death"

Life is for living. Everybody takes precautions going about the daily grind. Please don't scare yourself to death thinking about one way you could die each morning. Couldn't even tell you how many people died directly from covid-19 in the last 24 hours, haven't bothered looking and feel way better for it mentally. You should try it.

You’re just not getting it and that fine, ignorance is bliss. Don’t get upset when people try and educate you though

Upset about what?
Happiest I've been in ages. Work is slowly getting back to normal, nobody I know or know of has died from the virus (commiserations and rest in peace to those who have), my eldest starts school in September, the Boro didn't get relegated, Man City didn't win the premier league, F1 is back, Tories are effectively self destructing and rumors abound that Johnson is on his way out and I've discovered a **** load of new music recently too.
Take a couple of days without obsessing over the news or reading Billy and Bears updates. You'll feel a lot better for it.

Wash hands.
Cover face.
Something about space.

Virus isn't going to end the world. Is that what you believe or are worried about?

Quick edit, are you above or below the 50 year cut off?

You were telling us about the lack of social distancing in pubs by 30 year olds.
 
enough with the flu comparison, this isn't the flu, it far more contagious and far more deadly due to their not being a vaccine
Wooossshhhh.
It was an example of comparing different deaths, which you would have realised had you read the second comparison before you got twisted up.
Stay safe.

whadayamean "whoosh", you've been telling everyone that our reaction to covid is overblown and we should all just get out and have a life for weeks. You can't claim that it's some kinda joke alluding it's no worse than the flu

You get upset when I point out all the things you are saying about dealing with Coronavirus that are wrong. You don't have to be. You confess yourself in this thread you're ingonrat to it, so don't get upset when I point out your errors. Maybe, given your ignorance, you should stop commenting on covid threads? Or, if you do, don't get all huffy when people correct your errors.
