I am thinking of setting up a business that tests equipment to give folk an idea of what one to choose. A bit like "Which" so newbies can get an idea before spending money on something that's not much use to them. Probably charge a £1 a month subscription and have around 5 items to test but really concentrate on the top three. I have had the domain name for a decade but never done anything with it because I must have about 50 domain names. Every forum I have been on, I have noticed folk asking plenty of questions when deciding to buy something to work with. Will keep you posted if I decide to set it in motion. 😉

Please don’t.

But the sad reality is they are! Its just a cold hard fact. 

 

We're so focused on the ethics of shielding the people who are on average 82 years or older over the ravages we're doing to the young and I find that grossly out of proportion and wrong. 

 

My 17 year old is at a very critical point in her education and her acceptance into Medical School to train as a Doctor hinges on her grades this year. How well do you think that's going from her bedroom? She was a previously outgoing girl who studied hard but still found the odd hour for her friends. Now she's a depressed wreck. 

 

My three year old has had no interaction with anyone her age for almost a third of her life, the very stages she needs to be. She seen a woman walk past the house and she asked if that was maybe a friend for her.  

 

To say that I am seething even thinking about this is an understatement thats constantly brought to the fore when I see my work collogues here in Norway proponing meetings as they are dropping the kids off at barnehage. 

 

And not one person here has come up with an even remotely valid reason other than ''its different over there'' for why the approaches in Norway and the UK are vastly different and yet the infections rates are still lower than the UK. 

You can see with your own eyes the problems these restrictions cause but think it's ok for the vulnerable to be locked away as long as you and your own can go back to normal! Wow.

 

It would be far more devastating for the vulnerable and their careers/immediate family who will also have to shield if they were locked away while we all got on with things. 

Thankfully no government has gone down that route and non will, except many North Korea. 

 

No doubt there are big differences between Norway and the UK as there is obviously something seriously wrong here in the UK. We have basically the worst death rate in the world even with all our restrictions. Do you not think that if we followed Norway's plan the death and infection rate would be far far worse than it is now?

I’ve repeatedly answered your questions but it seems nothing will give you what you consider a satisfactory answer. My thoughts align with that in the link and there is simply nothing further I can nor wish to add to that. 
 

Another member here is obsessed with the word dogmatic yet you seem to fit the bill rather well here. I’m sorry I can’t give you the answers that would leave you howling in faux-rage that you so clearly and desperately crave. 
 

This will be my final response to you on this matter. 

Yes my last response here too.

 

You haven't answered anything at all!

 

You suspect that members of sage are making decisions with their own interests at heart but you don't know who is doing it, why they are doing it and more importantly what it is they are doing. All you have done is point to an article that asks for more transparency so we can see if there are any conflicts of interest. The fact that most of the medical profession agree with sages decisions should surely make you think your theory is unfounded.

Just wait for the well known apologists here scrambling to come up with a reason why this is a great idea. 🧐🙄

I really, really hope this isn’t true.

I’d happily contribute to the cost of a repatriation flight for Abdul 20  from the Sudan.

Looked into it Mark before posting and there is a lot of info regarding it out there already so I’d say it’s genuine.
