Make of that what you will Yeah, my partner is currently seconded to T&P and she's back to her normal job full time at the end of May, and she's the last one they've kept on from her department. A few months ago she was doing 12 hour shifts on the phone for the whole day, now she's making about 4 calls on a busy day and watching a lot of Real Housewives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the odds are stacked against you and the rest of us on that front, due to an attitude of outright snobbery towards those who enjoy such things, IMO.

Despite the #data Perhaps but there is no accounting for businesses deciding to shut early, I would out in Edinburgh the night before and that was ruined by Scotrail. Roll on normality after the election and the new government coming in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 In better news Spain are holding test events in May with the hope of getting tourists back in June I assume a lot will hang on the EU ruling if you need a vaccine passport to travel and if that requires 2 doses, if so could rule out significant proportions of young people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medical records show that where a mix of pancuronium bromide and potassium chloride has been administered, the typical subject has contracted ZERO diseases over the subsequent decade. Why don't the authorities want this to be more widely used? Control, people. They use fear of disease to keep us in line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends how old they are I guess under 16 you will be fine between 18 & 16 it depends what the EU rule is the age for vaccination passports, probably 18 in all likelihood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And your opinion is likely to be shouted down by Ur YoU a ViRoLoGiSt LiKe??? types, but the issue isnt that its happened. The experts can and will study that, its the pish poor reporting of it thats been rife throughout the seemingly never ending fear campaign. Ask no questions, seek no details, just fire it out in a punchy wee tweet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I think Scotland is actually doing pretty well at the moment. Wales aren't that far ahead. I was looking at the Scottish stats and noticed Glasgow and Edinburgh lagging for first doses. I've just assumed that it's because 'major' cities have a higher proportion of their population in the age groups yet to be vaccinated - probably way off the mark though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) If the people that got it become seriously unwell, I'll worry about this development. 4 cases is a tiny sample and at any rate Israel does continue to report a small number of cases a day, of which at least a few must be amongst the vaccinated. Until serious illness is reported, this is yet more sensationalism. We know the vaccines don't stop every case (even of a non-variant) - the trial data told us that!

mizfit Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 There will be concern about the Indian variant because of how out of control Covid is in India. Would we be as concerned if India was in the position the UK was with vaccines? Probably not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Has anyone who has had their second dose had it much earlier than 12 weeks? My dad got his second dose after 9 weeks which seemed to early for our strategy of rattling through the first dose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
