I'm very guilty of going into the office when I've been unwell. I won't be doing that again.

How often do people actually get unwell?

I cannot remember the last time I felt ill bar a hangover. 

I think it might have been when my appendix decided to go aged 10.

Does any one know if Germany have cancelled that 5 day thing they had planned? I've only seen in mentioned 4 times. I need a fifth for confirmation.

Daily Cases Update:   Another reasonable day in that the infectivety rate has dropped again to 3.0%.  Bit disappointing the gap between Scotland and the other nations in cases per 100K.  West Lothian is now the most deadly Council in the UK.  In Dundee 1 party in 1 flat now contributes more than 50% of the councils active cases.  Ayrshire seems to be doing the well recently while Lanarkshire is on the rise again. Down at the bottom the Borders have a grand total of 6 active cases which is more than in some houses in Livingston Village.  Oh yes and Brora beat Hearts in the cup for the minter of the day. I saved a penalty from Kevin Bremner at Dudgeon Park.

Scotland peaked at 301.9 for figures 29th Dec to 4th Jan, (UK was 642.1)    Cases that day were 16,496 and test positivity rate was 11.9%

Yeah I find myself doubting that number. It may just be me, but I don’t know a single person who attends church regularly, and only a handful who will attend over the Christmas period

I know of around 10 of my near neighbours who still attend regularly plus I'm sure the local BB's and officers will still be attending church and Sunday Schools / Bible Classes regularly (when able of course).

Ah fair enough. I imagine there will be areas dotted around the country where church attendance is much higher than others. My grandma was from Dalry, and there were certainly a few churchgoers there, but after she passed away we’ve not really kept in contact with anyone from the town.

Today’s figure has 63% of 55-59s in Scotland already vaccinated so you should surely hear soon. If not it’s my understanding you can make contact with local Health Board if you think you might have been missed.
Edit to add I’m in Fife and the folk I know in late 50s have already had first vaccine.

They said they didn't like it, but had to go along with it.

There is a big difference in % of adults having the first dose when comparing the NHS boards and Local Authorities.

https://public.tableau.com/profile/phs.covid.19#!/vizhome/COVID-19DailyDashboard_15960160643010/Overview

Click on the Vaccinations tab and scroll down so Vaccinations by Health Board / Local Authority.

Select Local Authority, currently leading the way is Western Isles with 72.2% of all adults having 1st dose.

Aberdeen currently at 40.1%, all the cities are lagging behind the rural LA's.

Yes, we're all good God fearing people in the Garnock Valley.

Either that or we're all praying for something better in life !!!

Brazil having their biggest nightmare since the 7-1 semi final pumping from ze Germans.

The stalling of Glasgow's numbers and Scotland as a whole is a bit disappointing, although, when accompanied by declines in deaths and hospitalisations, not overly concerning.
