In fact, the subject has been fair done to death. Best keep you opinions to yourself from now on!

what? LOL. it's a post on Covid! the whole point of this is for people to blow off steam and give their POV. i truly cannot see why you would post that comment unless you were the OP and the topic was on how fiddly it was to replace a carb on a husky 455.

 Considering these people are at the front line of Covid and see day to day the actual effects it has on people, not the media driven hysteria and still would rather wait and see, or have taken stock of the actual victims does make you pause and think.   

 

 

 

Yep and the majority take the vaccine, bit of a no brainer really.

And a sizable portion do not. Claiming that the majority do could mean anything, could mean 51% take the vaccine. The reports indicate a large percentage do not and considering they are on the front line and see the the actual coal face and not media driven hysteria and still choose not to take it leaves a lot of questions unanswered. But since we're looking at this from completely different perspectives we'll draw our own conclusions as to why. 

 

Anyway, Im off down to the Supermarket, without a mask to grab a few beers. Then  I'll drop past Domino's and grab a pizza again, like 90% of the people in there without a mask. 

 

And just look at the audacity of these people in Stavanger! Going about their lives and enjoying the moment amidst a pandemic. That sneaky Covid, it knows its not in the UK so does not spread here.....

That’s fair enough Andy, Stavanger is not Oslo.  But you know that Some in Oslo are protesting against the restrictions, closed gyms etc ?
 

Even NRK have been doing articles about the Norwegian Lockdown and it being the toughest of times since WWII.


Another NRK article.

WWW.NRK.NO

Regjeringsmedlemmer og helsetopper har nå forklart seg for regjeringens Koronakommisjon...

 

So the picture you are painting isn’t entirely correct.  Yes it is less than the UK but it isn’t all business as usual.

 

You know they closed the Vinmonopolet and it lasted 3 days?  Basically the government loosing money was enough to reopen it, plus the complaints from the people ‘who needed wine and spirits’.  
 

Yet the gyms are closed, youth training and clubs have only just resumed as off today and adult training is not yet going ahead.


You can get pissed but you can’t go to a fitness centre or sports club.

 

So again the picture you are trying to paint maybe true for the area you work but certainly not for the Norwegian Capital.
