Thought it was going to land in my garden at one point
Blimey! How big is your garden!
Grow up for God sakes
Take your booster, it’s perfectly safe and effective…
You need to start watching real news on YouTube
then you will realise what is going on
Amen
“real news” ? You are having a laugh. If you think it confirms that having an approved vaccine results in more deaths than not having one, then you need to come into the real world.
If we knew who you were, you probably wouldn’t be quite so keen to show us all how immature and uneducated you clearly are, you sad little troll.
Please wait until you know the full facts – covid and vaccine nothing to do with the incident
You are a idiot. I think Island Echo should ban you for your pointless comments and poor taste.
Best wishes to the casualty.
People are dropping like flies, people have been dying with white blood clots
it is alarming.
John Campbell on YouTube an honest doctor tells the truth.
Disinformation methinks.
Wishing the casualty all the best .
Thoughts with all family and friends.
And as for the lunatics on this site, show some respect ….
And if you don’t know what respect is look it up in a dictionary……
