I recently attended a small dog show,
It really isn't fair that they wouldn't allow large dogs.

If the vaccines don't work, why is everyone having them?

No proof the vaccination works

Have you had yours ?


I am afraid there is proof
It reduces serious infection, hospitalisation & death
There is evidence it is reducing transmission too

Mmmm?

Let me nip this in the bud.

We have spent in the region of 10K on covid health and safety risk assessments for the ABR Festival.

Members of ABR staff, our Covid health and safety consultant and I have been in two CAM (Covid) and SAG (general health and safety) meetings with all of the local authorities professionals present. This includes, health, environmental, police etc, etc.

Our health and safety documents – which extend to over 250 pages – have been read and scrutinised by all the professionals involved in these meetings and been given the seal of approval.

Every supplier and exhibitor at the festival must have their own covid health and safety risk assessment by law. That includes security, traffic management, toilet suppliers, caterers, exhibitors, manufacturers etc. etc.

Risk assessments are not for public consumption however if anyone wishes to read our Covid Health and safety risk assessment I’ll have a copy at the main ABR festival office.

I’ve just banned Jennie from this forum, not because of the disingenuous nature of her post but because of the constant abuse she has subjected my staff to over the past two weeks. I am done with tolerating that.

I certainly over inflated that, still a lot of money wasted so far from PPE procurement of non existent items to ones that aren't even compatible, as well as 35 billion on something that had a minuscule affect on transmission rates. I was asking a question about the vaccine, if it doesn't prevent infection or transmission & only helps to reduce the risk of death (stated by others) it's hardly the magic pill all those considered high risk have been waiting for! Still under clinical trial and only issued under temporarily authorisation at the moment, let us hope they got it right first time.

Anyway enjoy the festival those that are going, it's a decent site with plenty of space.

What hard scientific proof exist they work or is it a case you believe what you read and hear
