This Witch doesn't burn
|
So my 85 year old Aunt went to a garden lunch last week, think there were 7 or 8 of them, but now the hostess has contacted all of those present to say that one of the guests tested positive for covid, so i say to my Aunt you will need to test just to be sure as she is going this week to the opticians, the dentist and has a hospital appt for which she has arranged transport, oh no she says, we all social distanced I don't agree with this, the tests are free, available through the post or from a chemist, so why not just do it for reassurance that you are not passing anything on to anyone else?
I am annoyed!

yeah i think it's responsible to take a test if you are going to be mixing with other people

Yeah that's very irresponsible of her if she's going to be going out (especially to places where there might be vulnerable people like the Hospital)

if she had the app she would have been pinged as a close contact and would have to go and have a PCR test, like literally she can do a 10 second test at home with a lateral flow just to be on the safe side, I am very cross about it tbh,: she will be up close and personal with the optician and dentist as well she kept telling me the woman who tested positive for covid was a pyschologist...like that mattered

yes its the educated virus , honestly I give up, we will never get cases down because despite having all the tools to keep cases down some people think it is not their responsibility, I asked her if she had any lateral flows in the house and she said no...

I have a mind to go online and order some to be sent to her house, but she might cut me out of the will

If she has been double vaccinated she doesn't have to self isolate....but the test kits are free so it doesn't hurt to be sure.

I thought you only have to test now as a close contact if you have symptoms?
I ordered some to be sent to my Dad's as he hadn't tested either. He is now testing once a week just to be safe as he is off out and about again. I got used to testing twice a week during term time and now my office has asked we test if possible once a week to ensure we remain covid free in the office,

If you've been in close contact with someone who's tested positive for COVID-19 you can get a PCR test, whether or not you have symptoms. What does close contact mean? Getting tested can tell you if you had COVID-19 at the time you did the test. If you test positive, you can help the NHS contact people who may have caught the virus from you. They can then self-isolate and avoid passing it on to others. Logically it would make sense for her to test as she could be asymptomatic

wanting to relax even more measures, stupid moron Rutte, i am swearing at my tv everytime i see him i know everything better, but ok if cases go massively up again, we know whose fault it is, Rutte and those irritating freedom loving moron anti-maskers freedom is irrelevant, mental health is irrelevant when it comes to a pandemic now on the news also something stupid: mental health problems among youths rise all in all, stupidity here in my nation annoys me a lot |
