BBC Text:
[Boris Johnson "faces cabinet deadlock"
over more Covid curbs before Christmas.
The paper says the PM faced a
"wave of cabinet opposition"
to new restrictions which have forced
him to shelve decisions including
a potential post-Christmas "circuit breaker"
until ministers have seen new data.

Heard one of those friend of a friend rumours last night..

Apparently loads and loads of young people (under 35) are having strokes and / or blood clots after having a vaccine jab BUT as soon as it’s reported on social media the authorities take it down ...


One of our friends is seriously scared now despite all our reasoning and reassurances .

It sounds like a load of complete bollox to me plus the idea of the government having a system in place to delete any damaging rumours also seems preposterous


Thoughts please .. or any arguments we can use to try and calm her down

Thanks

Yet they can’t monitor the ‘inappropriate’ porn sites and the dark web ?

On the face of it THAT looks good but I’ll be happier if that’s the same in three weeks or so when the massive new wave has gone through its full cycle

I was hoping you’d all give me some facts or links to counter argue the claims

You cannot counter-argue unsubstantiated claims

because they are unsubstantiated

The whole basis for their status is where they came from



"Its going to snow in Falkirk on Christmas day, 6 inches"

really who said so?


"The Met Office" - so if we find out it is the UKMO then we know it has a good chance of happening

or

"Dianne Abbot was on GMB and she said it"

then we know for sure its utter bollocks

sooooo pfizer booster jab apparently only protects you 75% against omicron, for ''3 months'' and then down to 25%


and first two jabs protect up to 70% and then 40% against omicron

Sure, some places ensure all staff have a mask
that helps.


But too many have already, lost staff.
Hence the current debate on LBC
