Restaurants have been open for months but with no alcohol - this isn't new. Gyms have been open as well. The only thing new is the sports stadium part and them being somewhat more generous with opening hours. Anyone who lives in CM knows that. Clearly, Asean Now writers don't live here and have no idea. 

Manager finger not exactly on the pulse is it?

Oh, oh.

 

Israel was 80% vaccinated, loosened restrictions and threw away their masks and now the Delta variant is raging there.

 

This won't turn out well.

If you have had the correct course of the vaccine you may still catch the virus but you are much less likely to be seriously ill or hospitalized . In other words your immune system is given a boost to help protect you , not 100% protection but not far off at 70-80% . The unvaccinated are fully exposed to the dangerous covid virus . It has been rumoured that the unvaccinated should be made to pay for any covid treatment in the UK . There is no scientific or medically proven reason to reject the vaccine , in fact quite the opposite with realms of medical data . The non vacs have only conspiracy theories to argue their side .         Why are there so many of these so called conspiralists around today ?  Sure that vaccinated people will still get the virus but they will not be the same burden on the medical services as the unvaccinated .

The Palestinians and most of the arab world will be happy about that, they should thank China and India. FYI I did not say I was happy with that.
