Marshmallo Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 24 minutes ago, Honest_Man#1 said: Both hopefully completely ignored as ludicrous. After vaccination, it needs to be back to normal completely. Don’t really care about wearing a mask in some places and hand washing is just what any normal person has always done, but social distancing to continue forever is utterly ridiculous. No large events/gatherings, can’t touch or hug loved ones etc for the rest of time? To stop a tiny number of people getting mildly ill? f**k off Professor. ^^^ could do with making his own sunshine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in for a scope yesterday and they have oxygen on standby just in case. Thousands of these done every day. Shows how easily (and necessarily) routine stuff can need to be binned if any kind of strain at all on the nhs. Def makes you think differently about it all. And that's not lockdown that causes that, it's just the prevalence of the virus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 I could understand it in busy areas, which there shouldn’t be many of anyway, but anytime you’re out? Seems ludicrous. Most of Europe has had the outdoor masks rule for months it's not exactly new. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 1 hour ago, djchapsticks said: We won't. People who seek any sort of confirmation bias though? At the end of the day, even 90% efficacy means that 10% of people who get the vaccine won't have protection. That of course is very effective but when you consider that there will presumably be a huge lift of restrictions upon vaccinations being administered, then IMO, it's going to be absolutely unavoidable that there will be an initial rise of cases for a month or two. The potential impact should be researched and communicated in advance as failure to do so is unfortunately giving the anti-vaxxers and conspiracy theorists, something substantial to use. We need to remember that despite us living with more access to information than we've ever had at any point in human history, ignorance, wilful or otherwise is probably more rampant than it's ever been. As well as what's already been said about the severity of any infection, the 10% will benefit from others being vaccinated and reducing the chances of them coming into contact with it at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither did banning the people from going out for a wee walk and having the stormtroopers stop every person they saw in the street to check their papers were in order.

vikingTON Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 1 hour ago, doulikefish said: Going to be a lot of folk pissed off when hancocks "over by spring" comment doesnt happen.I file it in the same box as the "better by june" "over by xmas" comments,lets just get it rolled out and everybody vaccinated that needs to be before in a timely manner The 1 million that the SG pledged would be vaccinated by the end of January would be a start. Having another vaccine is obviously good news but this chat of oh I guess we should wait until everyone in every vulnerable category has got their two jabs and then drum our fingers waiting on the impact before we can possibly lift restrictions is concerning. We already have objective criteria in place for the tier categories in Scotland: these should be applied again, with greater emphasis on ICU cases over time, rather than positive cases among the general public which become increasingly irrelevant. Progress in vaccinating vulnerable categories should therefore feed into the ending of restrictions in various parts of the country, it should not be a pre-requisite to start doing so. Absolute NAP that Sridhar starts playing up 'but... but... long Covid!!!!1111!!!!' to maintain her crusade for endless restrictions*. * Spoiler a cushy elevation away from Edinburgh Uni 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Apparently UK capacity for the AZ vaccine production is 150,000 per day, 5 days a week.

It plans to produce 150,000 vials a day, five days a week - as soon as it gets the green light. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1375917/coronavirus-oxford-vaccine-rollout-latest 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is pathetic. In the middle of a pandemic where we are under the tightest restrictions of people’s lifetimes and they won’t work weekends to produce more vaccines.
