Popular Post colinneil Posted May 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2021 How absolutely crazy.... Airport staff getting the vaccine, hospitals closing because staff not vaccinated, and in close contact with people who possibly have covid everyday. Time this excuse of a government got their act together, and stopped messing about. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
