What the next scheduled series for Zimbabwe?

Except the UK..

We're going backwards over here. 1,800 deaths yesterday. It's a joke. We have a South African FC fast bowler due to fly out for the summer as our pro, 15K worth, but this pandemic might put a stop to it.

Sick of this s**t

15k for a 5 month club contract? You could probably get Kohli for that. 😂

Ivermectin fixes Covid most times, Regen-Cov cures it 100% of the time, Ivermectin costs 3c a tab and they're selling it here for $5!!

They're trialing medicines and not releasing them when they've been around 40 years and they work!

Its evil and disgusting and politicians need to face a firing squad.

I accept UK is hard hit but if you've had Covid within 28 days of your death and you get run over by a train it reads Covid on the death certificate. UK deserves to know the real stats.

Here's a proven one- if you're hospitalised with Covid you have an 8% chance of dying, if you take ivermectin as a treatment its 1%.

If you take it as a prophylactic you're highly unlikely to get it in the first place.

We're being conned and manipulated by truly evil people.

The world needs to get onto it and Regen and let's start living again. These vaccines are not proven and only have a 50% efficacy against the new strains. They want people to take an unproven vaccine that may only work half the time and long term effects are unknown for a disease that will kill you 0.003% of the time if you don't take a 3c cure???

Oh and these b*****ds need to go to jail for the rest of their miserable lives.

Why is that?

Theres a hard lockdown.

My sisters stuck in london as we speak.

How is it THAT contagious with such a lockdown?

I think i heard 1/10 people in london have got it or had it

The government allowed a couple of days grace at Christmas which would have categorically contributed to the rising cases and deaths. Coupled with the fact a lot of the country are entitled, arrogant and selfish, the virus has spread beyond control and the NHS is now on its knees.

The vaccines need to be rolled out quick, that's the fact of the matter. The summer is coming up and this winter has been a really miserable time for us in the UK, not being able to see family. People will want to get out and enjoy the summer but they can't without a jab in the arm.

The UK government have been dreadful in dealing with this.

I'm a teacher and have to go into school and teach key worker kids, but I won't get a vaccine until October due to my age.

Absolutely f***ing ridiculous.

Yes, European countries and the US are still struggling despite vaccines being out for almost one and a half month now.

So many conspiracy theories flying around here.

UK really messed up without having hotel quarantine Sloandog. Having a lockdown but still allowing international flights is like allowing p**sing in the shallow end of the pool.

What do you teach Sloandog?

Nice analogy

Ivermectin has not been approved or proved Googly.

Its 20 minutes long but well worth the time.

Well it seems to be working right here and most people I know are taking it and doctors have been given the go ahead to prescribe it, the fact is many were prescribing it illegally anyway. Most of southern Africa is turning to it and when they can't get the human version they're taking the liquid animal version. I'm yet to hear of a death of anyone that's used it.

Here's the other one-

https://mol.im/a/9189845

which we will never see here as its a first world drug, as are the mRNA vaccines.

The difference is through bitter experience we don't believe one word that comes from the mouth of anyone in authority, particularly a thieving politician, I guess you lads have a ways to go in that regard, hopefully the learning curve is not too drawn out 😂

No conspiracy theories, just whats happening right here in front of us. Simple question- would you take a 3c tablet a day for 3 days that can do no harm if you were on your death bed in hospital or would you say it hasn't been approved? 😂 😂

Why won't governments issue them and see what happens? What is there to lose? Sometimes its worthwhile living in a shithole where you can bend the rules without having to wring your hands in anxiety that you might get into trouble if you survive.

I teach in Wales these days (Economics and Politics), lockdown has been much stricter here than the rest of the UK even though rates are fairly low at the moment. The biggest issue is the lack of hospitals with the majority of Wales being rural, which reduces the number of cases needed to put the NHS under pressure.

Unlike Sloandog our schools are closed to nearly all but the very vulnerable kids with teachers not even being classed as key workers. The one good thing about Covid is that it has proved that online learning although much improved, is very limited in its impact, no chance of being replaced by robots in the near future.

The restrictions around my own club side last summer were ridiculous, had to sanitise the ball every 7 overs with no spectators allowed (not that it stopped anyone from turning up).

I see light at the end of the tunnel, the vaccine programme appears to be going fairly well (although a little behind in Wales), I am hopeful that life will be different by the start of May but we shall see.

Why can't you have a covid test upon arrival instead of a 10-14 day hotel quarantine? That's effectively saying the covid tests don't work very well. When they spit out the stats on how fast its spreading they should attach the proviso that the figures are bullshit. My mate was doing business in Addis, was tested positive for departure, forged a negative certificate, got back home and had 4 tests over 4 days here and they were all negative.

Are all African countries going to sell their countries to China for cheap alternative vaccines because as sure as hell we're not going to see the fancy mRNA vaccines any time soon unless they develop a freeze dried powder form that can be reconstituted. At what point will these big companies make them affordable, how many billions do they need?

All indications are that immunity doesn't last so are we in for bi-annual or annual boosters? That's not happening in any African country, it's unaffordable and impossible to implement.

The virus is mutating, yet they're saying vaccines should provide a defence, there i smell bullshit. They're saying the mRNA vaccines attack the protein envelope which remains the same, yet antibody counts decrease rapidly over mere months and there's already evidence that its only 50% effective against the SA strain.

Its here to stay for the foreseeable future and its going to keep mutating. Do First World countries prevent travel from Third World where prevention protocols will never be the same?

For me one solution to safe travel is making the airlines responsible. An immediate and accurate test needs to be developed. You test at the airport on departure and at arrival. The arrival test to be administered by the government and if anyone is positive the airline is fined and is responsible for repatriating the traveler or paying for their quarantine. Payment for testing being the responsibility if the passenger.

There's only one reason i can see for a low risk person to vaccinate against a disease that they will barely notice , and that's to prevent a high risk person from contracting the disease, but if the high risk person has already been vaccinated then what's the purpose of the low risk one getting the jab? This does not stack up at all.

Somebody explain to me why they would not release Ivermectin (for example, and more drugs will surface), a medicine that has been around for decades and is completely safe and may well fix the problem. These f#$% ridiculous trials of 2000 people are a disgrace when people are dying. Give it to the sick alongside any other "legal" medicine and we will know in mere days if it works on European and American people. Nobody is going to die from taking five 3c tablets over 5 days when they're about to die anyway. It works on us African and Indian folk, but maybe you guys are different. 😂

Are the Europeans waiting to see if the African guinea pigs do well on Ivermectin? 😂

My suggestion is they recommend other cheap stuff to take as well because we will try anything. If I'm in hospital and the outlook is not looking good and my quack says let's try hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, colchicine (yes!) crushed and chopped into a line and snorted through a $100 bill and chased with a Johnny Walker then I'm up for it, I'm not going to say the NHS says it might be dangerous and it may not work.

I might try that concoction anyway, sounds interesting.

The first world quacks just need to say "this old fat f%$ has got scabies, head lice, pin worm and early onset river blindness and administer five 3c tablets, charge the NHS £200 for the consult, the pharmacy sells it for £25 thus making 33000% profit and everyone is happy. Worst case is the patient dies of covid, but worm free and his head doesn't itch.

It will never be possible to accurately measure fatality rates because its impossible to measure the number of covid cases, particularly in Third World countries where most go untested and unreported. The rate constantly changes anyway, varies from country to country, with age, with co-morbidities etc etc.

I've had friends get really sick and a couple have died. These are people I know personally. I still don't believe in lockdowns, whilst a percentage of people continue to

ignore instructions Covid won't be contained. Australia and NZ for example seem to have done well, but that ain't happening ever in a Third World country or many others. We have to learn to live with it, end of story.

If you guys out there aren't seriously questioning what's going on then that's proper sheep mentality.

You cannot shut the world down for years because it may kill 0.5%(or whatever it is) of the population. If you're high risk then isolate and hope it blows over or there's an effective vaccine you can take coming your way. If you think everyone needs to be vaccinated then you don't understand the concept of vaccines or the problem. You can shut it down for 6 months, but we're heading into year 2 and the people with a spine want to live. If the world was taken over by aliens and we all had to live underground like the movies, there would be groups that figured out how to get about without dying up top, I'm one of those guys. If the alien lazer scorches me then so be it.

Cancer will probably get you in the end, but nobody is screaming for results on cancer cures, yet a particularly virulent flu-like virus that you have a 99% (at least) chance of surviving is enough of a reason to change the course of human history? If you're lucky enough to live a long life you don't die of old age, you weaken and something gets you, Alzheimers, cancer, heart etc etc. The death certificate doesn't say old age. If a lion escapes from a zoo, catches you walking down the street, f$#s you up the arse until your nose bleeds and then unceremoniously eats you and you happen to be Covid positive then take a wild guess what your death certificate reads.

Take a teaspoon of cement and live your lives.

In SA Dlamini Zuma stopped booze and cigarette sales. Take another wild guess who is the King Pin of illicit alcohol and cigarette sales? 😂 Pfizer may end up owning the Western World and China the rest of it.

Let's list the number of active cricketers that have had covid and who've subsequently died. 😂

Either shut the world down completely or open it up. You can't be half pregnant. If you're a bit scared wear two masks like Fauci suggested, one mask worked really well. 😂

I'm primary mate

Here's the latest Danish study on mask efficacy

https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/2020111 ... rotect-you

Their study showed a 16% lesser risk if you wore those blue paper ones which I like to use. Basically not enough of a difference to be statistically significant. The researchers were reluctant initially to release the results. No wonder Fuckcheese recommends 2 😂

Other studies are way more optimistic.

Yeah I'll wear a mask in a public building just because it feels like the right thing to do and I'll put one on in the car driving on my own when approaching a police road block manned by c&$#s wanting to charge me $50 in case I infect myself.
