I guess that then relies on people being honest about the situation.
Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

I'm somewhat surprised at that!I'm much the same with their 'opinions' but I've found their verifiable facts to be reliable, if 'selective'!
I don't care if you find their facts reliable.

Here is a good chart re your question

GAF-IND = 'N'
If that isn’t an incentive for people to get fully vaccinated I don’t know what is.

No idea what that means.
I'll try again for the hard of reading.
''Has anyone ON HERE who has been triple jabbed been hospitalised with Covid?''

Should inspire older folk to get boosted! Also slightly distorted as only Critical Care cases.
Oh, and apparently OP isn't interested in those not 'on here'.

The Management is going in to have a procedure on Wednesday afternoon and she's just had her pre-op PCR
Isolating until she goes in....shame as they've let trolleys back on the course.....

Our eldest has just tested positive and is now upstairs isolating, whilst we are all boosted I guess that the sensible thing is to probably skip arranging any golf for next weekend

2 of my kids had it , the younger has just tested negative on day 6 . They didn't isolate about the house and for me and Mrs life goes on as normal. Out and about etc.Our eldest has just tested positive and is now upstairs isolating, whilst we are all boosted I guess that the sensible thing is to probably skip arranging any golf for next weekend

If the employee wants to be off on full sick pay then I'd suggest they need to show it to Ikea; maybe Ikea can't force them, but equally the employee can't force Ikea to pay them. My employer has created a folder on my personal profile for me to add my vaccination date, which I have done. I really don't have an issue with them doing that; we are in an absolute
storm and I think the responsible thing to do is get vaccinated.But presumably if you test positive you'd need to show your vaccination status to get full sick pay?

Why? You’re under no obligation to self isolate now merely because of a close contact, as you are boosted. If you really wanted to be cautious then maybe do a lateral flow test, or avoid the clubhouse before or after your round, but I would be perfectly happy playing golf in your circumstances.

The title of the thread is
''How is it/has it affected you?''
My question was an attempt to steer the conversation back to the people on here, to find out how they have coped with hospitalisation. Nothing to do with what Twitter or the Daily Mail thinks.
I stupidly thought it was a closed question that wouldn't start another argument.

I know that I am under no obligation but I won't be playing with other people and if I do play a few holes on my own I won't be going in the bar as you suggest. Call me over cautious but it's only 1 week. The rest of us have all tested negative today, long may that continue

I'm concerned about a guy that bought a pair of speakers from me. He paid for them the week before Christmas and they were ready to go pretty much there and then. He mailed me on the 26th to say he'd had a positive PCR but wasn't feeling terrible and would collect on the 4th Jan when his isolation was up. Heard nothing and emailed him on the 4th and again yesterday without reply. Hoping that he is ok and that it's not Covid related and it's something else that's kept him incommunicado.

I admire your sense of caution but, given everything you have said, I’d say get out for a few holes. You are not doing anyone any harm and, if you are exercising caution in other aspects of your normal routine, the fresh air and exercise will do you good.

I've been generally cautious, but I'd have no issues playing golf with someone in your position. You just wouldn't be taking a slug of rum from my hip flask on the 10th tee or getting a handshake.I know that I am under no obligation but I won't be playing with other people and if I do play a few holes on my own I won't be going in the bar as you suggest.

Oh the hypocrisy!
Check your own early posts! Nunber 337, 340! A couple of earlier ones get a 'maybe'.
If you are really serios about posts being solely as per the title (good luck with that!) then there are better ways to get the message across!

The weekend is still quite some time away, if you're really concerned just take an LFT on Friday and Saturday to reassure yourself. Even if you were unwittingly positive, you're outside! Just avoid kissing or hugging anyone you might come across and enjoy your round.
