Doomsday scenarios from SAGE.
A doomsday new Covid variant that could kill up to one in three people is a ‘realistic possibility’, according to the Government’s top scientists.
Documents published by the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) today warned a future strain could be as deadly as MERS — which which has a case fatality rate of 35 per cent — could be on the way.
No10’s expert panel It said the likelihood of the virus mutating is highest when it is most prevalent — as is currently the case in Britain.
And a downside of Britain’s hugely successful vaccine drive, it appears the country’s greater levels of immunity could help speed up the process.
These arseholes just can’t help themselves. But note that last sentence. Those opposed to mass vaccination have been saying this all along.
Scientists said Britain should bring in booster vaccine doses over the winter, minimise new variants coming from abroad and consider culling animals — including minks and even cats, which can harbour the virus — to prevent the mutant strain occurring.
Okay, now that crosses a line. No one is coming anywhere near my cats.
‘Without stricter border control measures we risk importing vaccine-resistant variants while uncontrolled spread here could lead to yet another UK variant.’
You couldn’t make it up. What fucking border controls?
If SAGE says that something is a realistic possibility that pretty much guarantees that it isn’t.
Well, yes. Given their track record so far.
Are there any actual medical people on SAGE, or is it the usual collection of rent-seeking quango nincompoops?
Errrrrrrr…..no?
Behavioural psychologists I believe. You know, people who are really clued up on how to scare people but totally fucking useless when it comes to risk assessment.
Apologies for swearing.
Behavioural psychologists are nothing more than gaslighting charlatans.
I trust that’s a rhetorical question.
I wonder if there is a connection between this and that massive culling of mink in Denmark last year, after which it was found that mink do not carry the wuflu. There’s some other agenda going on here.
“Okay, now that crosses a line. No one is coming anywhere near my cats.”
I don’t have a cat myself, but yes, I’d like to see them try to kill the estimated 8 million pet cats in this country. Massive civil disobedience would occur, I expect.
I’m sure the MSM and politicians will accuse cat owners of being selfish and claim that they don’t care about the nhs and saving lives
No one’s getting their hand on my pussy. Black (kitty) Lives Matter.
“No one’s getting their hand on my pussy.”
Any relation to a Mrs Slocombe?
Yep,’ loll
Yes, sorry LR, n Pen. Was being, well, trying to be funny. But if anyone tries to get my Purdy, their dead.
Ironically if a more lethal strain appears its the vaccines themselves that could well have helped to create it, by reversing the normal viral evolutionary trend towards more infectious but milder strains.
Yes Jim it is, this an experiment, I’m a normal person. My OH has had these vaccines (which I refuse) ,he’s experiences really nasty side effects, but refuses going to our doctor (well doors are closed).
So what do you do?
I give up, but my children on board. There is no way my grandchildren are having this blood/clot
