That compares to a total of 93 closures up to the end of July for all other infection incidents combined
The true figures will be higher, however, as NHS Dumfries and Galloway has not responded to a FOI request & NHS Lothian said it's unable to provide data

Sooner or later, the truth always comes out.
I usually say it's not the lie but the cover-up, but in this case the lies cost thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of lives. They knew it would. They did it anyway for "feeding the base".
So yeah, the lies were pretty horrible. #COVID19 #PublicHelath #ScienceMatters

Regardless of occupation, gender, or age group, sickness absences rose, with the likely cause being the lingering effects of the #COVID19 pandemic.

The contrarians have no clothes
As the COVID pandemic has ravaged the world, a collective of "free thinkers" turned contrarians have revealed themselves as pied pipers leading lay people off the edge of rationality ...

Another cool vaccine fact:
Vaccines do NOT stick around the body.
Like a great teacher, they do their job, step away & let the student body soar with the knowledge they have imparted.

Here is how I judge politics of any type :
Does the body of peer-reviewed science support this political position?
If yes, then the political view is valid and worthy of discussion.
If no, then it's invalid and generally not worth discussing.
This should be a basic litmus test for any political stand. If a hill isn't supported by science, then it's not worth dying on.
