Billy Jean King Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I don't think we are to be fair. We so far haven't seen the vaccine hesitancy they have in their younger cohorts but we are not at that stage. There will be no need for any domestic passport system if take up holds up. Why we're following Israel on anything is beyond me. An abhorrent almost apartheid state, who treat certain members of their society as well as they treat dog shite on their shoes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare to Jan 25th to Jan 31st. So Jan 31st we were at 132.9 cases per 100K. Feb 28th we are at 76.5 cases per 100K Reduction in last 4 weeks of 42.44% Who have been the shakers and movers. Well East Lothian & Stirling are the only areas with actual cases increases. Some of the falls in just 4 weeks are remarkable. Good to see so many of the Western areas now outstripping the national average. Even Glasgow has quietly dropped at national rates.

madwullie Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Reading an article in the guardian there that has a couple of bits of info I didn't know about: Firstly, they claim it was New Zealand's billionaires who drove/backed their covid strategy. Secondly, apparently asymptomatic infections are now estimated down at ~20%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a link to two studies that looked pretty thorough. Maybe it's just more facts about the disease becoming available now we've had longer to study it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I’ve seen reports of them opening things up in the last couple of weeks. They had supporters in the ground certainly for the last test match and I think the one before that as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I see the EU is now gracefully sending 100k vaccines extra each to Czechia and Slovakia, which I'm sure is in no way connected to the 2 million Russian vaccines that Slovakia's government ordered just last week. Not sure how many cigars the ordinary Russian chews on, but Putin has certainly benefited from the UK and EU trying to play a pandemic like the 1950s Cold War. The EU has practically no authority at the moment: some of the internal borders are arbitrarily closed, while most of the Med will open up for tourism in the summer regardless of Brussels' advice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HibsFan Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) I know we talk a lot about cigars and all that at this point and good for us, but on a serious note, it's still not really sinking in just how impressive and downright miraculous this vaccine creation and rollout has been so far, think it won't really hit me properly until a good few years down the line. Every previous thing that we (the people on the street not the eggheads) typically thought possible regarding timeframes has been ripped up and completely rewritten. God bless the nerds.

Yup. I am very much pro-EU, but without stating the obvious, going beyond the health implications the pandemic has really not been a good thing for the bloc. This has only been amplified by the vaccine rollout and members now breaking rank to file in supplies from Russia and China. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
