So you are saying that significant numbers have gained immunity by catching Covid instead of getting vaccinated against it?
Seems a bit of a gamble, but at least it follows Darwin's natural selection theory.

We haven't stopped being aware and careful since the original one hit Europe. We still wear a mask (correctly positioned) and carry our own hand gel when shopping. Haven't had any close social contact for over two years now. I know the feeling. |

Like many others on here, we've been aware and careful. It's got us this far without coming down with Covid, so masks and gel will continue for the foreseeable. It's habit now anyway.

I say that as a fully vaccinated person and I believe I have had it and recovered without being tested.

Every single test twice a week since February last year, ibis, necessary as we were in a support bubble. |

It's time now to live with it folks, if to you that means wearing a mask when you go out good for you, if it means cutting yourself off from the world thats fine, no-one is going to question your reasons or criticise you but should that not work both ways? France and the UK are in a very different situation than when the virus started in spreading in its deadly virulent form amongst an unvaccinated population, the drastic measures were necessary then and it was clear how well they worked by the rises during holiday times and on relaxation of the measures, now 90% + of the population are vaccinated, in the UK more than 50% of the population have already contracted Covid(dont know the number for France) further strengthening their immunity if vaccinated or giving immunity to the unvaccinated, some of the latter sadly will have passed away but in most cases they had exercised their choice and probably will have been not protecting themselves and socialising, I think of the demonstrations and football matches here. Living with it without mandatory restrictions is the only way to give immunity to those who chose not to be vaccinated. Like living with seasonal flu and for most people currently catching the Omicron variant its less debilitating than that especially if they have been fully vaccinated. A good summary. |
