mizfit Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 That’s one of my friends confirmed with it. Picked it up on Christmas Day. Whole family infected. Said he’s over the worse but still can’t smell anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will ultimately be irrelevant as we won't have enough vaccine anyway. Jeremy Hunt is claiming Pfizer's stock will run out this month and we won't get any more delivered till March. Don't know how many AZ can deliver but I doubt there will be any point in going 24/7 or even 12/7 until there have been more vaccines approved. I hope the MHRA haven't been told not to look at the Russian and Chinese versions for political reasons if they have stock available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and 4 other's from work were struck down with this in March, utterly fucked us and I was off for weeks. Currently this thing is ripping through my team. Of 35 people 20 are now off, 16 went in one go and are suffering the typical no taste, no energy just laid up with it. Meanwhile the 5 of us fine, it's hardly scientific but personal experience. I know my work is riddled but I know we are in contact with the general public. However was really the last 2-3 weeks its went to many people being off. 16 going off in one go we havnt had happen. Wherever you are that is pretty fucked up. Presume its been in the paper? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) English teaching union on the brink of advising members not to return to work on Monday. Their claim is that the workplace is unsafe and under the employments rights act 1996 they are not required to work in an unsafe environment. They are using the government’s own SAGE pronouncements to support this claim. Edited January 2, 2021 by Granny Danger 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 24/7 programme would be needed I'm not so sure, we are cracking through more than 400k COVID tests every day. Does a vaccination take longer than a COVID test to administer? What qualifications do you need in the UK to administer a jab? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much in European society is organised on our Mon-Fri 9-5 schedule. We have incredibly expensive medical equipment like scanners that sit idle most of the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Pfizer now claim there is no problem at their side delivering as per their agreement with the UKG which suggests now the UKG have been bullshitting about their volumes ordered. One side is talking shite clearly given only this morning a govt minister was saying publicly Pfizer couldn't deliver to our promised schedule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
