False results could happen for a number of reasons. It's well known that some people can have a negative response but still pass the virus on. Additionally, all the COVID vaccine manufacturers are shielded from liability. Why would it be any different for a testing lab? These people are absolutely crackers. The middle road, surely, would be to limit the liability to, say, the fee paid. That way Govt tick their box, ie. TG are held to account if they screw up, but the extent of the liability is handleable and probably would be acceptable to insurers. But that is only musing on the outside.

You do wonder why these kind of statistics are not readily available? I don't suppose it's in keeping with the narrative of fear that must be peddled within the mainstream media these days. They are almost desperate for it to kick off at Biden's inauguration tomorrow. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is good to see but sadly for them they also have 4 times the death rate we have, so I guess we must be doing something right 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmanxpilot 491 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I think that is the first time I've ever seen any official statistics showing a distinction between death from covid or death with covid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The other difference in Gib is they probably have a very porous border with Spain. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Instead they write off the last 10 years of developing a sector of our economy at the stroke of a pen or the click of a mouse. Edited January 19 by Andy Onchan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Death within 28 days of a positive Covid test you mean (not necessarily of Covid)? Edited January 19 by Nom de plume Quote Link to post Share on other sites
