And it forms these little cyst-type things in your lungs where it lies dormant for years/decades, so trying to wake it back up again to culture isn't going to be very straightforward. And if your swab/sampling isn't very consistent, well, it takes 3 months to find out and whoops nobody's keeping a body around that long.

So doesn't that imply that if it's dormant then Geronimo could have just taken the cure regimen rather than getting merked?

We needed Matt Housecock MP to dramatically arrive and suggest making the llama immunocompromised to get the sample.

I don't think there was any accusation that he had an active infection. But animal disease control isn't like human - we care about the health of the herd, not the individual. So in the case of a dormant infection you don't know when its going to suddenly become un-dormant, so hippity hoppity, lets get choppity.

Starmer was asked "Do you think Johnson should resign?" and the first time around his answer of "He's unfit for office, and because he's unfit for office he won't resign" is a good soundbite, but then the interviewer asks "but my question was do YOU think he should resign?" and Starmer then enters a loop about 5 times just saying "He's unfit for office, and because he's unfit for office he won't resign." JUST SAY YES YOU STRANGE loving BELLEND. YOU GOT YOUR SOUNDBITE NOW JUST SAY YES

It really is so loving tiring that politics is just filled with assholes who have people think up "cool" lines for them and then immediately run them into the ground. And worse, that there is a loving pile of hooting morons who absolutely lose their poo poo about how amazing they are. You should get bullied out of the room if you do that, not given high office.

Isn’t that standard advice given to anyone (e.g football managers) dealing with a hostile press? They are not asking the same question you just answered as part of a normal human conversation. They are trying to get a quote of you saying some words that don’t contradict the headline they are going to run with. And they’ll keep asking until it becomes clear you won’t cooperate. Corbyn need got caught by that several times; it’s a key part of the explanation for why a substantial part of the electorate came to believe obvious nonsense about him. He’d keep trying to explain his point to journalists as if they were human beings. And then one of those 5 explanations would lack a qualifier in the right spot, and bang there’s your headline. Apparently, the ‘fix’ to that is to good friends with the journalists asking the questions, so you talk naturally. And then trust them work to pick the best, not the worst, version of what you say.

It's true that journalists are often trying to lead you into a mistake, but in this case unless Jaeluni's hypothetical is true, you can say anything negative about Johnson and the public will side with you.

Funny that Barry attracted a bunch of mithering itt in part for using the term "tsunami" to describe the dangers of a new surge, and now Nicola Sturgeon just made a statement about a "potential tsunami". I guess doomerism must be the dominant ideology in Scotland, which kinda makes sense I guess.
