Leicester faces local lockdown

[RAPTOREX]

Small world hey! My home town is Whitehaven. Moved away at 19, I go back as often as I can. My family are still there. I have family in Keswick too. I guess we could find a common acquaintance If we were to go back far enough. The water, yes freezing and quite delicious. Did you move far away from Keswick?

lol. We could well be related, as well as having friendS in common. I'll pm my family names from the aria.

I want to return to my comment on vit D. It seems that those with low vit D intake are much more likely to succumb, to the worst ravages of Covid. This is born out by looking at figures. The largest numbers of serious infections come from care homes those recovering from illness and The Black and Asian community. All of these groups have restricted Vid D uptake.
A little research into vid D reveals it has an important part to play in respiration. I wonder if @vapesmarter might have a comment here.

Vit D is really important to the Immune system and can reduce of inflammation. I've been talking D and C ever since this all kicked off. I don't usually bother in the summer but it seemed wise to continue at the moment.

Nothing to do with living in overcrowded substandard housing, being poor, and just coming from a BAME background then, it's all down to the protesting is it, it's all down to the minorities, white people didn't protest in Leicester?

At least some of them wear masks, this is the Leicester protests:

The white people wear masks as well, same day, same protest, same place

No mate you taking it out of context. What i meant was anyone protesting for BLM. but i did take a look at the pics not many generation x there almost all of them Millenials. The generation that have never had the cain at school, the generation allowed to run riot because parents are not allowed to punish them. The generation that feels so hard done by, yet they have it easier than anyone over 40 more so than anyone who lived through ww2. At the end of the day the protesting has caused the spike, where else in Leicester have thousands of people got together, to cause the spread. It's a disgrace. They should be rounded up and punished no matter what age what race etc they are all commiting the same offence. what's the difference between killing someone with an object to killing someone by spreading a deadly virus. Both are the same crime both have the ability to kill whether it's classed as murder or manslaughter etc it is still people causing the deaths of others. It's all lives that are effected, the Bame community are apparently more at risk so why are they protesting on the streets. Why not stick to the usual and use Social media etc to protest. Too many folks will use any excuse to justify their actions but not one reason stands up. Too many folks are ignorant to the facts. No wonder the second spike is about to start. Should those who Protested be treated for Covid. Many will say no because they caused it themselves. Will the hospital give you a second liver transplant if you carry on boozing after they give you a transplant?. No otherwise George Best would be alive. It all works out to ignoring the advice given. Ignore the advice you must be willing to except a punishment.

There is a lot of research into vitamin d and c as well there is Hope it can be used to boost the immune system

but there was a good deal of talk of zinc and blocking the rna getting into the cells of the infected person

but two videos come to mind

the first is YouTube and the media in all this



It’s long winded but it speaks volumes to how people watch and talk online

the other is a new study about the virus rna being found in sewage @ 12months before the outbreak in the U.K.



but this is the thing we don’t know how long this has been about

we laughed at work when people said at work they had the worst flu in there lives last October now I’m not so sure

It didn't, or at least wasn't the main driver. If I can be candid, it's the wrong demographic that's falling for Covid, in Leicester, atm.
It's far more to do with Vit D, than BLM.
Mind you, as time goes on, the effect of the BML gatherings my come to the fore. But it's not just now.
Glenfield is one of the ares, affected. It's solid white middle class, It's the one group, around my area, that mostly ignored lockdown. It's also, virtually, devoid on non white or non British born residents.

Fair enough mate. You can bet those middle class twots went protesting hence the spread. All protestors where willing to risk there's and other lives so none of them should be bothered when Hospitals say no it's your own fault, problem is they can only prove it by watching hours of video footage to try and see. Covid affects all colours and all ages ignore this and it should be a criminal offence

So it's ok for the white folks to protest and not the minorities, they should stay home (if they have one), shut the fuck up and know their place? Seems you are advocating racial segregation (apartheid) to me.

Nobody should be out protesting in large groups, nobody should be out in large groups for any reason.

That's a very serious accusation you are making too. Maybe you could read what he wrote again with a little more generosity and without automatically thinking the worst of people?

 

[Mr Ripple]

Lets look at this again for @crustyfolker and @andi52.
Leicester was one of 18 cities across the UK that were well behind the rest for their covid infection and were along with Doncaster only just peaking when the lockdown restrictions were eased a few weeks ago.
Leicester hadn't started seeing their cases reduce as far as I know so it isn't actually an increase in cases nor has it been caused by anything else other than lifting lockdown too early for the good folks of Leicestershire.

 

[crustyfolker]

Do they? My children have never said they feel hard done by, neither have their friends or others of the same generation. I tell them they've got it harder than I had it, because that is broadly how I feel about their situations, and it's backed up by the stats, stats that haven't been manipulated (unlike the unemployment figures).

The thing is not all Millenials are ignorant etc but the majority are. Like i mentioned a few days back, i must encounter loads more crap ignorance etc from under 40's than you do and because of that i say what i come across nothing more nothing less nothing made up. I begrudge the comment about racial segregation all people are people i don't have a racist bone in me mate. Like i have said all along ALL LIVES MATTER. Colour , race, sexual orientation all included in this. I want people to be safe and stop flouting the rules. I think if people have family who have had or even died from Covid 19 those people understand where i am coming from more than some.

This is life today mate. People trying to spin whats been said to suit their ideas. I think a pole would be good to see what the forum thinks about both sides of this debate. My views etc are based on what i hear on TV. I don't believe everything but when the protests where on the media proved they where protesting. I base my views on that. I stay home as much as possible due to being High risk. But i am alone and sometimes have no option but to go out. I just hurry up and get home i do not stop to chat etc.
