As to how true this is I don't know but I saw an article earlier that said since the emergence of Omnicrom, 8 people worldwide have died with an average age of 83 yet there's been nearly 300 suicides ages between 20-55 who had previously struggled with anxiety and depression from lockdowns.

I'd say testimony of family and friends in that situation is as reliable as saying anybody who died testing positive for covid died of covid.
I know somebody who killed themselves through financial worry and somebody's husband/dad dying of a missed cancer diagnosis, I don't know anybody who died of the virus (except word of an old boy from the shop who had a bug eye, crook arm and breathing issues because his parents were 100% cousins). My missus spent every appointment of her pregnancy alone except the birth, some women were being told their babies had miscarried or will be born with disabilities without a partner at their side. The social impact on those with their whole lives ahead of them has been huge, were we not a nation of fat ****s reared on turkey twizzlers with a semi functioning nhs it could have potentially all been different.
Was on site today, 70-80% of people coughing and spluttering. This when the ‘experts' said if you live in London and have a cold it's probably covid. Nobody says anything but right the way through all this you can just tell that people can't afford to not work, hence they didn't try locking us down.. who's going to enforce it on 000s of big hairy louts?

The number are not as straight forward anymore. The deliberate goal post moving and confusion, creating divide and frustration.
Now, if someone is double jabbed and tests positive, they go down on the statistics as “unvaccinated” same goes for hospital admissions. Someone double jabbed rocks up at the hospital with a broken leg and tests “positive” they are thrown into the “unvaccinated” numbers.
Smoke and mirrors, deception, untrustworthy statistics, untrustworthy governance.

How does that work? think you may have that wrong. Basis that every one rocking up in hospital for what ever reason would be "unvaccinated"

Noj, I think it's probably correct to be honest, I know people that have really struggled this last year, whether it be financially or emotionally feeling completely alone.

Me (28) and a mate (31) had a conversation on this the other day, between us we know of three blokes that have killed themselves over the last couple of years. One of them was drug related so can't be included but the other two are out of the blue.

How it works, if you aren't “up to date” with your inoculations you are no longer in the class of vaccinated.
So every time they “offer” you another booster the goal posts change.

So technically on the first day of a new booster being available everyone in the country is unvaccinated

As i understand it that is right. Remember countries started saying if you don't have 3 jabs you are not classed as vaccinated. ****ing wrong on every level.

So this year i have had a pneumococcal booster(no spleen), flu jab, and 3 covid jabs but won't go near any business that requires a vaccine passport or a negative LFT as I don't need to show or explain my medical history to any Tom, Dick and Harry. But i have just realised on that i have just disclosed it to any Tom, Dick or Harry on here.

If people don't want vaccination thats fine by me, they have their reasons and should not have to explain to anyone why they don't want one.

And as for that **** Blair calling people "idiots" that helps the situation doesn't it. Absolute clown and war criminal.

I did some research into suicide for a play a few years back

It's the biggest cause of death in young men (18-45) in the UK and has been for some time - predating the pandemic. The financial worries, increased isolation, loss of friends and family etc. as a result of covid must have made things even worse.

My friend committed suicide this year. He had no one to turn to in the end. COVID closed down all avenues. Really sad. He got picked up by the police (losing the plot in a public space) 3 times in a week only for them to take him to the hospital and just dump him in the waiting room (it says on his history notes not to leave him alone) he then of course just stands up and leaves but on the third time he got taken home where he had to listen to the police and ambulance service argue over who should help him he then got taken by ambulance to A&E where yet again he got left in the waiting room and so of course just walked out. This time though he got on a train to Manchester where he found a building with scaffold up around it and climbed to the top and jumped. Spent a week in intensive care where he looked like he was getting stronger only for a blood clot to travel up to his brain one night and was pronounced brain dead in the morning.
These kind of stories will be told for many years after this is all over.

Absolute must watch documentary on BBC2 about the Covid-19 pandemic, tomorrow night at 9.00pm. Two brothers from the Wuhan Research Centre, where Trump suspects it was engineered, were due to get on Flight MH370 that mysteriously disappeared. It seems they were the guys behind the development of the new strain, and intending to use it as a weapon. Someone caught wind of their plans and purposely downed the plane. BUT... neither of them got on the flight and no-one knows what happened to them. It's really interesting....

Don't miss it ...it's called 'Two Wongs Don't Make a Flight'

And never underestimate the value of a phone call or message to someone just to say hi / how are you?

Even on here, people who you have never met take a moment to send a pm - and I don't just mean the young Russian lady who wants to share her photos with us.

I can tell you from personal experience it is hugely valued and appreciated.

Publiclife - sorry to hear about your mate. An awful story that as you rightly say, won't be unique.
