Travelling Tabby shows that in the past 7 days, there have been the following hospital admissions: 

0-4.     2

5 -14    3

15 - 19.  0

20-24.   1

25-44.   28

45-64.   24

64-74.   7

75-84.   2

85+.    0

So it's not only perfectly plausible that

"The vast bulk of hospitalisations are occurring in groups where full vaccinations has not yet been completed"

is true, it's also highly likely.

Thanks.

The distancing at Rugby Park is ridiculous.

I really do not understand the 500 limit in an 18,000 seater stadium. I understand even less why they cannot at least have 500 in each stand.

They had wee painted circles on the terracing at Brechin yesterday. You were supposed to stand on one and not move. Everyone ignored them completely.  Despite the result it was brilliant to be at the match and it was almost normal.

This is what a fan zone should look like , not 3000 people all spaced out in a massive park in Glasgow.

To put it in context when this picture was taken there was a game in the stadium with another 80000 at it (Russia v Spain round of 16)

Where would you propose holding that in the vicinity of Hampden?

Why the f**k hasn’t she been sacked from her role yet. 
 

The SG need to get her to f**k.

When I phoned I was about 400 in the queue. Took less than 10 minutes.

will need to tell her that She thought she would be on hold for hours so she put the phone down

My wife's she was told on the Friday her appointment was on the Tuesday and we left for a week away in Plockton the Saturday.
For me I'm interviewing for new staff members and for me to make my appointment means rescheduling interviews for 3 people.
If it comes down to it I'll get someone else to do the interviews but I'm just annoyed the system is shit. Or, if you think it's doable. I'll just go down in the afternoon... ill say you said it was fine.
 

If you can get in the same day you'll be fine.

That’s why I posted it.  I’d go beyond plausible and highly likely to “virtually certain”

It's genuinely infuriating how far behind we are

Sorry I wasn't sure which angle you were coming from.

I agree.

That doesn't tell you anything about vaccination. Large numbers of 20-40 year olds were in groups 1-9 and people without underlying conditions are very rarely hospitalised.

To quote a phrase we just don't know. The Scottish government do but they aren't giving much away.

Scotland is like the Lovejoy Democrat States in America, and England is slowly looking more akin to Republican States.

Most (wise) people can look at a range of sources and draw the most likely conclusions from them. This is one such occasion.

If vaccine efficacy, rather than absence, was a driver, we'd see hospital admissions weighted towards the older population.

It's pretty obvious to me that hospital admissions are occuring mainly, as Oaksoft suggested, amongst those who are not fully vaccinated.

That gormless c**t could make winning the Euromilions, shacking up with Margot Robbie and scoring the winning goal in the world cup final sound shite.
He's a gimp.

Gambling, Shagging and Fitba aye that's his perfect day !

Theres just so much more we could do to stop wasteage. End of the day, 70 doses left? Have a section on the app whereby an alert gets sent out notifying people of extra doses and allowing booking for the first 70 people who can attend in the next hour, that even avoids queuing outside venues. All doable. But no, get them in the bin. Want to get young people done, do vaccinations in the college and university assembly halls. Take a fucking bus to large scale employers, set up in the yarrows canteen, get a bit of fucking initiative about it. 

My GP does that - they set a reserve list and anyone, any age, can go if they get contacted. Only catch is you need to be available at short notice on a Saturday afternoon. 

I was feeling quite good about progress here as I got my first vaccination and didn't even need to be on the reserve list - I just got a slot. I'm 31 so assumed we were rattling through. Today I see that we're the worst affected area in South East England (45 per 100k so not a disaster) but also that we're on 51% for first doses. I guess there are a lot of students here but I thought given I'd been vaccinated that perhaps we'd be at c60-65%. That was a bit disappointing to see.

Yes! A lot of GP practices have grabbed the initiative with it, it just seems like such an easy goal for the bigger centres to do it, easy PR win too!

Another win for fantastic 'public health' messaging! High fives all round, guys - another incentive for younger people to get it!

Meanwhile, back in the real world, absolutely nobody will be abiding by such nonsense, save a handful of Lovejoy weirdos.

[Billy Jean King]

Errr...

A sure way to get millions to delete the app. Perhaps that's the plan, app is getting deleted ....we need to revisit vaccine passports.
