How many members of the public were actually asked about their trust in the Government before this story broke? I'm betting none. So whilst it may be true, it's the press driving the narrative rather than reporting on it. Report the resignation of course. Report the FACTS as best as they can be gleaned. But don't push the narrative. It's up to us if we decide to trust them or not and we don't need influencing by the press. We can make our own minds up based on the facts... And yes I do appreciate the flaws in that argument BUT the press are not helping us here, as usual.3 points

T cells (lymphocytes (white cells))form the major part of your immune response. After being exposed to an antigen (covid or otherwise) the t cells can respond to that antigen several years and even decades later. The difficulty arises when the antigen structure mutates slightly. Then the t cells dont recognise the challenge.1 point

As a lot of us are facing lockdown 2 and some people might be struggling with it, I thought as one of the quietest members of the community that I should write in this post because it feels relevant to me. I often want to reply to threads and be more active but often just lack to confidence to type anything and I feel I want to explain by sharing with you all. Where would I begin to even start, I'm sorry for droning on but maybe me, sitting here typing this may one day help. I hope someone will actually be interested enough to read this and that this part of my life that I'm going to share will help someone else who feels like I do. I got diagnosed with bipolar disorder quite a long time ago 15 years ish now, I actually was assigned an amazing psychiatrist that quickly found me some medication that kept me balanced out and thought that was it. I guess for me all the trouble started when I met someone who changed my world totally. We'd met through work, she'd just come out of another relationship and what both of us didn't know when we did meet was that she'd just fallen pregnant with her ex's child. So I stayed with her I adored her and nothing would take me away from her, I helped her to make her pregnancy as comfortable as possible, helped her raise the little boy and treated him like my own. Things were really difficult but we found a way or I thought we were, my work meant I was in London most days and living in Essex on weekdays and our place was near the Welsh border, 3.5 hours in the car each way. A bit further down the line my mum collapsed one evening, she was rushed to hospital and had suffered a massive hemorrhage type stroke, the doctors put her chance of survival at 10% and scarily her chance of surviving without major disabilities at 3%. A month into this my Girlfriend decided she'd be better off without me and ended our relationship, but she wouldn't fully let me go. Between her and all what was going on with my mum I became exhausted, my average day with work included became a 20 hour day after I'd gone to see mum and I certainly couldn't give my girlfriend the time I needed to. So I moved back in permanently to my parents and nearly exactly 2 years to the day my mum got sick, she came back home!. She made fantastic progress and became one of the 3% of cases that made a good recovery. She still needs a mobility scooter to go any real distances but truly a miracle how well she's done. So after a rough few years I decided to start chasing my dreams in life, I felt I'd given up a lot in life to help my mum so it was time to enjoy life, I ordered the westie to fulfil a childhood dream! One of the dreams of mine was ever since it launched was to go on a specific cruise ship. Independence of the Seas, It was home porting in the UK so I took the bull by the horns and booked my entire family aboard for 2 weeks to explore the med. It was a really special time however all I could think about was having my ex and the little man with me. I was there, lucky enough to live my dream, yet I hated every minute of it because it all felt empty. We then went to Russia on another cruise this time following one of my mums dreams, and once again the huge hole of the pair of them dominated everything. Once again I felt totally empty and alone in a void. As time has gone on, the emptiness stays it never goes, the more empty things feel the less I feel able to talk about things. I can be pretty good at hiding my emotions to most people. I got back in touch with the ex because my boss told me she was in a spot of trouble, she sends me pictures of the not so little man now, I even got to see a video of his school assembly, and I'm so incredibly proud of him but that's overwhelmed by the huge amount of guilt I feel for not being there for him over the years. I wanted to be but she wouldn't let me be there and its difficult because no matter how much I wish I am I'm not his dad. It's broken me to just know he'll never really know me or who I am. Life to me has seemed to evolve into a struggle everyday between two massive forces of wanting the emptiness to stop and ending it and the will to keep on going. So I just try to keep things in balance, even right now the westie just seems like a mistake, it failed its IVA because of emissions and brake balance, just feels like the end of the world. Hopefully I've fixed it to get it through its retest but I don't feel confident in myself at all. Just emptiness and a lack of anything inside. Anyways if anyone has read this thank you for taking the time, I wish I could write more on here and feel more part of the community, most days I don't feel I belong anywhere really and I hope you all understand a bit why I'm so quiet. So if I can ever be a friendly non judgmental ear to anyone then my door will never be closed and I hope everyone is looking after themselves through the new lockdowns as they can be somewhat tough!1 point
