Corona Virus: How Are We Doing?

[ColinJ]

Not forgetting, if you see someone drop a £20 in your garden and you can/want to go and pick it up, you don’t have flu

Or as I put it in a quote in post #3,957 above - "I would definitely have passed the 'unable to take advantage of free bag of banknotes on doorstep' test!"

When, I wonder, will we stop letting Covid 'ruin our plans'?

As already stated if you had it bad enough to knock you off your feet then clearly you'll be stopping in, if however the symptoms are simply cold like would we all be having a week off work and not going out just because some stick has a red line on it?

I've been fortunate to have had neither Flu or Covid, I assume anyway, so just find it all a bit over the top myself. (the testing).

Precisely because the virus affects people differently. It's called responsibility to society.
But you knew that anyway. You just don't acknowledge it.

Yeah. Stuff everyone else.

If you want?

Not got an opinion on what I asked then?

You haven't got an opinion on what I've asked either then?

Basically, you've never had the virus so don't see it as a problem. If you're not that ill, crack on. We've got to live our lives so who cares about the next person.

Is that about right?

Is it, where did I write that then?

I've asked a straight forward question and instead of giving us your opinion on testing and what the future is regarding Covid you seem to be psycho analysing me?

Try re-reading my post and telling us what your opinion is on the question asked, obviously if you haven't got one then that's fine.

I'm not getting into a argument and I'm not psycho analysing anyone. That's the basic premise of what you wrote.

If I get a cold, I avoid passing it on to other people too

But, what do YOU think?

Will YOU be still testing in a year from now at the first sign of a cold and if so for how long, 1 year, 5 years, forever?

I would too, when do you think you would stop testing yourself if feeling unwell?

I’ll continue to test if my company requests it before I go to the office. Or if I have symptoms - especially if I’m due to see elderly parents, vulnerable friends or have a medical appointment for example

No. What do YOU think?

If I get the tell tale signs of Rona, I'll be testing for the sake of others and isolating if I need to. For however long it takes.

Rona?

When did that happen? 🙂
