Re: Coronavirus
My Father In Law got a Covid jab the other day, so they're still offering protection, he was shielding as he was diagnosed and fought cancer through the pandemic, so if it gives him peace of mind fair doos.
I don't know anyone else that has bothered with it since things re-opened.
Reckon I maybe had it the run up to Xmas 2024, was floored for about 5 days then wasn't right for about 3 weeks in total.

Is Covid over?
You hear nothing about it now,
Weird how no government official (from anywhere) has ever came out and declared the pandemic as over.
Don't think any government is going to say Covid, or any virus is over when it still exists... they moved from it being declared a pandemic and having restrictions in an attempt to prevent it spreading at a rate that would be impossible to deal with, to a state of "living with it", just like the Influenza I guess.... On a personal note. I first had it in October 2023, floored my for a week; my mum got it in January 2024 and passed away in April of that year.

That's not what i suggested though SA.
I just find it odd that there was never any acknowledgement that we were finally out of the pandemic stage of the disease.
Unless, it's because there is caution in scientific fields that a 3rd wave could be possible, but it would be hard to differentiate it now from the common flu because no-one tests for it anymore.
P.s. sorry to read of the loss of your Mum. The pain never goes away, sadly.

Aye, I suppose that is correct but perhaps most government were too scared to say "its over". Not sure if any other places around the world actually did that though.
