They have, rightly, taken stick but deserve some credit. Probably because that wee fanny matt hancock hasnt been involved Theres no real skill involved in the pay lots for every vaccine approach. Its kinda like buying every house on a street and celebrating when only one goes on fire. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone says 'i hope we are all vaccinated soon', what they are really saying is 'hopefully we can go to the pub soon'. I think we are quite far from the latter. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Quote As of Saturday a total of 8,977,329 people had received a jab, and 491,053 of those have had a second dose. Health Secretary Matt Hancock said he was "delighted", adding each vaccine "brings us one step closer to normal". Start acting like that's the case then, you cretin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy boo Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Heard the delivery at Ayr hospital was less than a straightforward operation, shambles was how it was described, not good after 10 months of planning. Had my 1st Pfizer at Ayr hospital 2 weeks ago. It was the opposite of what you've heard. In and out in 30 minutes. Arm was tender the next day then wore off. (The pain...not my arm) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But lets not pretend that the UK have played a masterstroke in terms of business acumen by buying large amounts of every vaccine like its some kind of outstanding stroke of genius. They did the same with shite quality PPE and shite quality IT equipment and outsourcing for track and trace etc. What they’ve done is have an absolute shit fit and thrown massive amounts of money at every aspect of this they can, thats not skill. When you f**k up as much as our government have through this you’re bound to get at least one thing right. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you f**k up as much as our government have through this you’re bound to get at least one thing right. Literally the only reason we've taken this approach is because we fucked up everything else so badly. The only possible thing that could save us was vaccines, so rather than wait and see which ones worked / were most effective, we had to just chuck everything we had at every single vaccine and cross our fingers they were ready in time. Turns out we've been lucky and it looks a good move. Really really genuinely pleased at that, but if it had taken another, say 18 months to get them up and running we'd be completely and utterly fucked with not much else to do but actually properly stay inside forever or get on with it with hundreds of thousands dying and hope to f**k herd immunity arrived soon.

No im not saying its ‘bad’ or ‘good’ its just what everyone should be doing in western civilisations. Yes we can congratulate them on getting ONE thing right, they got ONE thing right in this entire thing. You’ll be able to go back a few of my posts and see where I actually did say the EU fucked up, but see given im only really bothered about how much my government has fucked up. If my house burned down partly and you tried to comfort me by saying ‘but the neighbours house completely burned down’, i wouldnt be comforted. The tories are responsible for 100,000 deaths because they failed to act, they got 1 thing right by a pure fluke, im sorry, im not impressed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
