I like the strange ones who think its a way of tracking where everyone is, yet at the same time continue to plaster their whereabouts with pics/vids all over social media each and every f**king day. 100% the 2nd one. Must be British thing From my experience it's not just a British thing. Maybe. but most countries did adhere to COVID protocol well. Whereas over here the slightest bit of sunshine everyone filled the parks and beaches without any masks or social distancing. Then moaned when another lockdown hit...

But then we are known for that anyway, not just because of Covid.

Most of the people that aren't taking it fall into one of the following categories (or maybe all 3!) from my experience: 1) conspiracists about everything 2) don't like being told what to do (this seems common nowadays) 3) on the wacky backy Deary me 😂😂

And then 70,000 turned up twice at Wembley. I'm ready for my Thursday night clap for the NHS.

And you're quite right. They are nice enough blokes basically but have some hangup about authority. I've seen some of the b*ll*cks they believe. It's comedy gold.

Must be British thing Here’s a few , what about the people who are genuinely frightened to take the vaccine as they’ve seen others have adverse reactions Or the others who have severe contamination health anxiety so crippling that the very thought of anything entering their blood stream would actually rather be dead , these are of course extreme cases but who the hell are you to judge people’s reason and make out they are all conspiracy theorists ? Not everyone is ‘selfish’ just because they don’t think the same way as you

Regrettably it transpires someone I considered a friend falls in to category 1. Only difference is it appears to have started since Covid and is (currently) limited to Covid. I.e. he doesn't have any doubts about 9/11, princess Diana, the world being round etc. We're actually no longer friends as a result of it. No regrets either.

You’re actually no longer friends with someone because of their views ?

Got to agree with Okebourne, for some it's not quite as simple as that. Whatever their reasons for their decision, it their decision. I doubt Oke's decision isn't on your list.

Must be British thing i bet if the govt offered them £1500 for each jab they would take it.. £1500 is the cost of one bed per night in a hospital, it goes up to a lot more if in ICU

Not from my experience, no. I was talking from my experience and haven't met anybody that falls into that category. Anti vaxxers will use anything to justify being anti vax.

Not when you have family etc working in the NHS. Not saying that is the case for RoverDrive but it is for me and why I feel so passionate about it.
