I especially enjoy watching him gently caress up on his "walk across x country in a straight line" videos. I particularly enjoyed him nearly dying alone in a bog in Norway

Yeah, pretty sure the same dude, and I once again highly recommend kicking back and watching his "mission across" series This is my favourite. He nearly dies multiple times in this one, especially in the bog, it's brilliant https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_japiE6QKWoP-qPQ3wXuOtLkZeYumJRH

It's a shame, they were doing really well too. My heart was in my mouth when they were going through the factory

TACD posted:Vaccine question: what’s the point of the little cards? My understanding is they don’t actually count as proof of vaccination for anywhere that matters, are they just like a receipt or in case a restaurant or somewhere wants to check vaccination status? I guess just to remind you when you had the vaccination or something, easier than logging into your NHS profile or whatever

andyf posted:Hello! Walk-in booster question. I'm not quite hitting the date mandate (6 month / 182 days since shot 2), about a half month out, so should I not waste anyone's time trying to see if the local walk-in clinic can do a booster for me, or are they a little relaxed on being strictly 6 months past a jab? They're pretty relaxed, apparently, IIRC several goons ITT work at/have gone to walk-in clinics and they've been sticking needles in whoever. It's good that you're being proactive about it!

It's not looking good re: transmission and vaccine escape, at all Basically this thing is going to be a tsunami, and we better hope by some miracle that the virus is much, much less severe than Delta

Yup. Seriously, y'all, invest in KN95 (FFP2) masks, get boosted ASAP, and change your behaviour, because this is probably going to be a nightmare

Grey Hunter posted:According to this, so far no one has died of Omicron (that have been tested.) To the first - the "health experts" saying that are loving insane. A less lethal virus that spreads more quickly is going to kill far more people than a more lethal but less transmissible one. It would be social murder unless, by some miracle, omicron causes no fatalities whatsoever (and then there's the other, non-death outcomes to still worry about) To the second - that's old and discredited science, there is no selection pressure on covid to become less lethal because it kills long after it's replicated and spread. It could happen by random chance, but there is no inevitable curve towards being less severe.
