As one would expect with all centrally planned systems, Britain’s “ping” system for tracking Covid exposure is breaking down.
Britain’s supermarkets, wholesalers and hauliers were struggling on Thursday to ensure stable food and fuel supplies after an official health app told hundreds of thousands of workers to isolate after contact with someone with COVID-19.
Yeah, no thanks to the government tracking app. I had a “cold” a month ago and there was no way I was getting a Covid test. Why would I have an app that quarantines me just for being in the general vicinity of a Covid case? As much as I dislike NDP politics, BC has done things mostly right under their watch. If we go all Australia, though, there will be violence.
Yup, the last headache and runny nose I had, I worked through it.
Just like the 40 or 50 before it. As long as I’m thinking clearly enough to drive, I’m in good enough shape to work.
The NHS app used by so many sheep in the UK is not secure and has been hacked a few times already. Many people have been pinged even though that had not recently been to any places where it was even remote likely to get pinged. Plus, the numbers being pinged have sky-rocketed almost perfectly in time with the so-called freedom day on the 19th. How is it possible that the number of positive results as a percentage of tests has gone up so dramatically.
As always, concidence on this level is not coincidence. The app is the perfect tool to create a supply chain crisis, you can even tailor it to region and type of worker.
When are people going to start questiong the PCrapR test?
I have a client who had to take a PCR test along with one of his employees (business with regular human contact and travel, so I think they are asked to take them every week or so). He lives near a notorious traffic bottleneck, so he is driving in with his employee and there is an accident ahead, he is delayed from his 6.30 appointment by over 2 hours. The testing centre closed at 8. So they go home after all this wasted time.
Two days later they have the results. Both tested positive.
Yes, they tested positive to a test that they did not participate in.
That is totally crazy. Time for normal people to start waking up.
But when the government PAYS you to NOT work … I wouldn’t count on the average bloke complaining.
The great reset doncha know
Yup. What’s wrong with a little inflation, as long as it hurts someone else more than it hurts me. (/sarc)
LindaL, I await the awakening of the “normal” people so far I have not seen enough to make a difference.
At this point, anyone with the sniffles who goes for the WuhanFlu test is just as moronic as the idiots who took the not-vaxx expecting they’ll never catch the WuhanFlu. Give it six months and there won’t be any more incidences of WuhanFlu because people won’t bother getting tested anymore, knowing that positive tests even if you have just a bit of sniffles means endless, deadly lockdowns and other fascist measures.
Who installed that spyware on their phones in the first place?
If you did, do what the article says most Btitish working people are doing, Turn IT Off.
I didn’t. So they then ask us for contact details. Which we tell them. And they take on trust. Obviously I tell them the correct details /s
Why do these Brits think they deserve to eat? They’ve freely given up all their other liberties. Starve to save the NHS or be deemed a selfish bastard!
All a feature, not a bug
“To avoid disruption, many have simply deleted the app from their phones.”
The “Pingdemic.”
Of course.
The latest monument to bureaucratic incompetence.
This is rather funny, to put it mildly.
LOL, the fuckers haven’t had control of this from the start, ” we are contract tracing and we got this”. fk them all.
Worse than it sounds. I am in the UK, and both safety manager and instructor at a small vocational training company. One of the students in my class tested positive the day after he’d been in the classroom (PCR test, after a negative lateral flow test so almost certainly not contagious). We still have not heard from NHS Test and Trace. The chief instructor and I have done their job for them, advised the students of the situation and advised them to voluntarily self-isolate, putting all teaching online until ten days after the contact. Not really a big deal as it happens, it’s a tough course and most probably don’t go out much at the moment anyway.
We’re till waiting for the central planning to do the job that I can do locally in an hour, as long as I write the risk assessment up later.
D R, it matters not whether they isolate or any other idiotic thing surrounding the whu who flu. It is time to get up, get out, get over it.
