Taken down by it a few days ago. Bit naughty this one…flu like symptoms for a couple of days which wasn’t very pleasant at all.
However, as I’m isolated from my family I’m now in control of the remote control just in time for a great sporting weekend. Plus my meals are delivered! 😀

I attended an out patients department in Morriston Hospital today (won't say which department). The clerk was looking at her computer screen and remarked to a colleague that there appeared to be high numbers being looked after in the hospital. | | | |

Not necessarily that bad, my mother, who is 87, was in hospital recently and caught it like many others on the ward. Most were over 75. She had no symptoms at all, was gutted as she couldn’t be released whilst testing pos. If it had been the initial strain it would no doubt be very different. |  | | |

It's probably still here in large numbers, but we don't know as we aren't testing. Thankfully it's weakened and not causing deaths | | | |

We had war, climate change and 15 minute cities beofre covid. But as covid hasn't lived up to the conspiracy nutters predictions they've reverted to other stuff.
None of it is a conspiracy. | | | |

Funny you should say that, there is a massive surge in sick days for my team in work for those that are fully zapped (don't like to use the real word) it's like their immune systems have gone into retreat and they pick up everything that travels around the air con system. Very concerning. But when pointed out you're called all sorts | | | |

It's not any 'weaker' than the original Wuhan strain. Causes fewer respiratory issues but more problematic systemic and vascular problems. We are as a population immune due to vaccination, infection and a combination thereof. As vaccines only reduce and cannot prevent transmission of later strains, the need to boost has become restricted to high risk groups.
Will be like flu vaccines in that is you are 50+ or have another condition you will be offered boosters. | | | |

Your last line is pretty much what’s happening here now. I believe the forthcoming spring booster programme will be limited to the Over 75s only and those individuals who are immunosuppressed for example people who are undergoing/undergone chemotherapy, taking high doses to steroid medication for medical conditions etc.
There is likely to be an autumn booster programme like last year which will follow the same rules, but it may be extended to and include the over 60’s like this years was. | | | |

There's a nurse in Morriston who has had all her jabs and just caught the vid for the 4th time | | | |

Getting silly now, there will always be colds and flu around, if she didn't take a test, most probably she wouldn't know she was positive |  |

Simple really. The vaccinations do not prevent you from catching covid, they just help to ensure the symptoms are not so severe. Proves a point really when she is alive to catch it the 4th time. | | | |

Covid is not the flu or a cold. Apparently, last time she was quite ill with it.Medical staff can't go to work with Covid for obvious reasons. | | | |

Proves nothing, except different people have different immune levels to different viruses, as with you and the flu. | | | |
