Official - less dangerous than flu.... 4 Years, 3 Months ago

This is clear and should be the last word but I fear it will not be. Signed by 22 scientists: "Covid demonstrably now less dangerous than seasonal influenza viruses" and must be dealt with in the same way given the damage lockdowns cause.

However, I suspect Auntie won't even mention this; and just bore us with India's crap health service...

Your first link is dated Dec 20 - clearly the letter from the scientists refers to now in the UK that we have vaccinated the vulnerable.

I am fully aware that "others" consider Covid to have been at one stage more dangerous than flu, thanks.

Do you have an opinion on the substance of the point and lifting of restrictions?

deeprootsathome.com/webmd-not-trusted-health-information/ Even Vox hates Webmd Barney, www.vox.com/2016/4/5/11358268/webmd-accuracy-trustworthy I have never heard of health.org.uk but if it’s a charity then they care more about coffers than you.

Most experts and official information sources (UK and worldwide) agree which virus is the most dangerous. www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/f...us-than-seasonal-flu www.ons.gov.uk/releases/deathsduetocovid...nfluenzaandpneumonia Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Oh grow up Barney; Covid when new was far more dangerous than the common cold but Spanish Flu years ago killed tens of millions. Are you deliberately stupid or simply a moron? Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Don't forget also that what most people call flu is just a cold. Comparing it is not trivialising covid at all. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Fair enough JK. But some posters seem dictatorial, cannot accept being wrong (sometimes) and take great exception to being challenged. We all can get the wrong end of the stick occasionally, and sharing opinions and reports, will go some way towards finding the real truths.

Different opinions are valid Barney. Consistent idiocy is not. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Good point Honey. Flu can be a killer (50 000 in 2018) as can Covid. We are not trivialising Covid by comparison just putting it in a less hysterical context. I have had flu once in my life. It was appalling; I couldn't move and genuinely remember thinking "I want to die..." Thankfully I was a young man & not an old man. I will always take the flu vaccine when I get older.
