It's the lack of concern for others that worries me, sometimes. And yes, it happens everywhere. It seems the old fashioned values of fair go and look after the less fortunate , and take responsibility for your actions belong to a different era. We'll probably never know why those who disregard the COVID restrictions did so, some probably thought they had a valid reason, some just thought they would get away with it. But not one seems to have stopped to think of the consequences of their actions. We still don't know the full story of the first two, who came up for work. Perhaps they were told they could, but whatever happened, we must hope that the reason is sorted , and doesn't happen again.

A couple of Easters ago we found ourselves camped in a caravan park next to a family of ****wits. They parked their cars on our site, their unleashed dog **** in our campground, it snarled at our kids when they went to use the toilets, they had loud music going continually, they built a bonfire the size of a small house, used a chainsaw to cut up timber in the park itself and when I asked them to shut up - at 2.00am - the husband jumped into his 4WD and threatened to run over the tent with my kids in it. Oh, and the wife took photos of my car's number plates and said that she was a lawyer, that I was obviously a paedophile and she was reporting me. They were kicked out of the park the next morning for their infringements the previous day and that was before park management knew about the overnight issues, which park management were horrified by.

Anyway, I'm betting that those people don't pay much attention to covid rules.[/QUOTE]


Unfortunately, I think you may be correct. It's a pity they can't get the disease by wishing it on them with Wi-Fi.[bighmmm]

Well, apart from the whole tens-of-thousands-of-people-not-dying thing.

So what you are saying, is stop ALL medications, and just let people die?

"Companies Desperate to Reopen Ask: What’s Your Vaccination Status?


Companies are sending surveys, offering cash rewards and requiring disclosures to find out how much of their work force is vaccinated."

As an employer I wonder how long before this is a issue here? 99% of mine are. the 1% worry me[bighmmm] Above is USA of course.

I agree the world is over populated with people, but until there is consensus on that a few mill have died an ugly death because of this virus.

It'll happen very fast because employer's insurers will demand it before you can get public liability.

Doesn't matter about the 'efficacy' of the liability limiting effect of vaccination, the insurers lawyers will be drafting stuff up now.

Why on earth would you be a fiery if you have such scant regard for human life?

The USA has approved vaccination of children from 12 years and up. They have vaccinated about 600,000 and are in the process of authorising a vaccine for younger children. One of the dangers of not vaccinating children is they can spread Covid, and herd immunity is more difficult . Children have died from Covid, but it is rare. We have to have the discussion about vaccinating children, the Authorities have been very quiet about this.
