I see Italy are threatening them with legal action. Surely supply must meet demand here unless there is a problem in the manufacturing or they simply can't keep up? Pfizer say they have to pause production so they can make changes that will allow them to scale it up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Heads should be on pikes for any suggestions longer than 2 week rolling reviews.NI health minister has followed up yesterday's extension to 5 March with a statement today "warning " it's very unlikely to be ended then too. Not sure what's worse, being drip fed extensions in 2 week rolling reviews or being given the harsh longer term reality ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not false hope. The truth is sometimes hard to take but sugar coating stuff like this helps no one. If the organisers of these events think it's remotely possible they will delay a decision. Clearly Glastonbury organisers didn't. But my question is centring on "when?" Surely NS has brought this up herself among her advisors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite that although it was a factor (along with a 20% boost to bottom line, greedy b*****ds). They want to make changes to manufacturing to ultimately speed up the process which means decreasing current supply. No idea what these changes are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I'm no expert, in fact I know nothing about how big events are planned and how they are insured but I'm wondering if there is an issue at the moment securing any kind of insurance for cancellations due to Covid. You would imagine insurance companies wouldn't be touching them with a barge poleCan tell you right now most insurers will be looking to explicitly name a pandemic as an exclusion going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accept your point but my figures do paint a decent prognosis going forward. Still 2 weeks till a review. Have a look at the NHS figures on the East Side trusts.

vikingTON Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, renton said: So the plan is to vaccinate with first dose somewhere between 1.1 and 1.2 million by middle of February. Is the argument then that the two weeks difference between using 1.2 million doses by January 31st and doing so by February 14th somehow critical? If you are interested in not burning endless piles of money and punting restrictions into the sea at the earliest possible moment, absolutely. Wee Jeanne dithering along to retirement in May clearly doesn't though, which is why she should be emptied. 44 minutes ago, Billy Jean King said: 46 minutes ago, Steven W said: in that case we're fucked Why ? When it's safe enough to hold mass participation events then we will. It's no different to any other sector affected. You can't just magic up events after burning through two years' worth of cash across the industry. The live event sector is going to be a shadow of itself unless governments get their finger out of their arse and provide as much as support as they chucked at feckless Scottish football clubs, if not more.
