I’m starting to get the vibe that perhaps much of northern Europe’s covid panic right now is really a case of seasonal Christmas distemper.
It’s midwinter, cold and dark and it’s the festive season, which means everyone is basically looking for an excuse for being on edge and miserable.
In essence though, as long as you have had some sort of valid vaccine, it’s the sniffles, not the Black Death. Get over it.
However, if you have not yet been jabbed and boosted, happy travels...

"My suspicion is that they were in a position to do this before December 23, but needed some residual panic in the air to get Britons to the 44% booster level they now find themselves at".
Boris and his crew are not that clever, they are flying by night before radar to say the least. My leadership as well.
We've thrown money at the problem but are still short on basic medical supplies. The idea that it will be summer before the new antivirals are available to treat all who might fall sick makes this old man wonder where there head was the last two years. Did they not know that making pills of any sort requires infrastructure? A relatively modest sum invested in a large scale laboratory/manufacturing center, ready to incubate and punch out hundreds of millions of pills, might have been prudent.
