[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1080493, member: 74121"] Of course, although I remain optimistic about future variants. My concern is more that I consider pandemic management and media coverage in much of the world to be completely abject; so further poor decision making seems likely. Our dentist in Scotland who is the main spokesman for pandemic management says he isn't concerned by Scotland's the second Omicron spike, but shows no sign of grasping that this is internationally unique and may necessitate a revisiting of removing all restrictions on March 21st and considering expanding spring boosters beyond the over-75s to include vulnerable age groups who got boosted 5 months ago. Just ostrich syndrome. At least if another mess is approaching as a result of idiocy it'll be less catastrophic this time. And why on earth a record breaking per capita Covid death rate in Hong Kong isnt seemingly worth reporting on major news outlets in the UK I do not know (although I see the FT and Independent have finally woken up). Lessons learned nil in terms of observing things that happen in other countries. I'm not predicting calamity but a lot of people aged 65-75 in particular will die unnecessarily this spring in Scotland if we remain asleep at the wheel. [/QUOTE]
