ahhh poor fella, he was unlucky, most people seem to have a mild reaction to latest strain of it

Delta is long gone in the UK

He's fine now....to be honest I think he possible has a stomach bug too....the winter vomiting one is going round his school and I think he might have picked both up. Back to normal now so symptoms lasted around 24 hours.

You are wrong.

DO you have any evidence that anyone is being hospitalised by Delta now in the UK?

omicron has completely displaced delta in the uk. Additionally, omicron immunises you against delta. There are no new delta infections in the uk anymore

So what is killing 100 Brits each day in Covid wards ?

Coronavirus Outbreak
 

None at all ??

I understand that omicron is the main variant but surely there will be some new Delta cases ??

november 2021

respiratory disease as normal

a couple of weeks ago it was 98% omicron. Delta cant compete gainst omicron because it is so infectious. That's scientific fact

There will still be some delta cases in hospital, but there wont be any new ones

2% is still around 1,700 new Delta cases each day though ...

where?

but that was 2 weeks ago, not now and delta just doesnt infect people the way omicron does

Fair enough ... still feel that it was successful enough to still be getting a few people though .. there must be pockets of people the length and breadth of the country who are still passing Delta on ..

"Displaced" does not mean "gone".

that becomes less and less likely. Omicron gives you delta immunity, so delta just doesnt have anywhere to go

That’s interesting.., I haven’t heard anything about Omicron giving immunity against Delta .. I just thought it was infecting people before Delta could so Delta was falling away ..

Netherlands: health minister Ernst Kuipers has said we are on course for 100.000 cases a day

but that we had to get rid of the lockdown because of the UK ordering us around

In the Canadian province of Quebec, novel curbs are being introduced for people who haven't had a coronavirus vaccine.

From today, alcohol and cannabis stores will ask shoppers to show proof of vaccination to secure their purchases.

Health officials say they hope the measures will encourage more people to get their jabs.

That's a different approach :laugh:

How have the UK ordered you around?

You need to be more careful with wording Bots, I honestly thing semi-misinformation like this actually ends up bolstering and driving the skeptics more than anuthing else.

Omicron doesn't "give you immunity" to Delta or any other strain, it does increase immunity levels overall in the community which increases herd immunity which is of course vital to ever overcoming Covid, but saying "Getting Omicrom gives you Delta immunity" is at best a massive exaggeration. It makes it far less LIKELY that you'll get any Covid strain in the short term and increases your chances of any infection being mild in the medium-to-long term. Phrasing it like this makes it sounds like it gives full immunity, which only takes a few examples of people getting it twice for the skeptics to declare it all lies.
