    Brexit, for once some facts.

    https://www.who.int/ Fair point Danidl, but surely WHO could offer more than "Omicron could change direction of Pandemic" It's almost a useless quango. It should have power to shut transport down from regions it sees as dangerous. Leaving it to individual countries has proved ineffective... So...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Anybody else think WHO have been utterly useless during pandemic. Always give advice post event.. Originally said travel had been responsible for spreading Covid(you don't say) and that corridors should have bern closed earlier. Shouldn't they have told everybody that when it could have done...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    There is contradictory evidence emerging from SA. Hospitals still reporting no deaths from Omicron but government figures showing exceptionally high excess deaths, increasing in proportion to Omicron infection rate. As JA says the faster spread and apparent much increased potential to infect...

    Agreed, Johnson should thank them, for honouring contracts. Was very good of them. They nearly didn't tho... So credit where credit due.

    Giant e+ 29 3 feels notchy

    I, ve just got same bike... Replacing Haibike (which I, m currently repairing) Mine feels fine.. Not quite as powerful initially as Haibike but think that more to do with delivery than outright torque. (it's same motor) Both great bikes. Crank bearings went on Haibike.. After 6000 miles.. Shop...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Afraid I, ve got some humble pie to eat for quite a few meals. Thought Boris was almost OK, had right sentiments but going about it wrong... I was wrong. He, s lying, conniving and sneaky.. He really shouldn't be pm. Watched him over last few days, he's an embarrassment. He, s ruining any...

    Think you asked earlier tho. Who will, could replace him? Sunak? Gove is universally disliked.. Raab untrustworthy.. Rees Mog... Might aswell go. Hancock could be brought back in spite?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I really think this entire episode has been one big distraction technique. Boris would rather face questions about parties than stalled vaccine programme, dangers of Omicron, secret deals with Pfizer... Yep, fine take him to task over this but 2 weeks now... What lies have gone under bridge now...

    Think this party issue might actually bring Boris down. Something good might come out of it ?? Perhaps it wasn't a dead end after all.

    Come to think of it that's what dad called ours... Was a green enamelled think with a folding wind shield. (actually a fire shield on its last journey)... Was hotter and far easier to light than ordinary Primus. I believe it was ex army..???

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I see all that but that doesn't explain why Omicron is predicted to both become dominant strain and reduce Delta infections. There is a massive assumption been made that having Omicron will prevent future infection by Delta?? But we already know the reverse is not the case, so it seems to me...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Back to Covid.. Why is it assumed if Omicron becomes dominant strain earlier strains will disappear. Surely for that to happen they must share mutual mechanisms that destroy the virus..? They don't? Do they? Could we end up with Omicron all over country with Delta still spreading?? ( being...
