    Like I say that’s just how things are right now. If the new mutant covid starts straining the healthcare system again measures to mitigate it will come back. There will be protests again because the Tim Pool grifter types are everywhere to capitalize on it.

    Could happen again this winter, hopefully not, but we should be ready for it. The anti-vaxers are certainly being prepped to make shitshow out of things again.

      Are you talking about in the UK? I disagree. I just don’t see that happening because there won’t be anything to protest. I don’t think we’ll go back into lockdown again no matter how bad it gets. At most they‘ll recommend wearing masks again, tell the vulnerable to shield, put capacity limits on indoor venues, and restrict visits to hospitals and care homes. Very worse case scenario they might urge people to WFH/stay at home and maybe reintroduce bubbles at schools.

      I can believe it of American because antivaxx views correlate with political views and the US is so divided politically that it almost doesn’t matter what it’s about, people will argue over it. But without that aspect to it in the UK there just isn’t anything to protest.
