Every day the vaccine rolls out

Angus, fewer than 45 cases per 100,000 and over 41% of the population vaccinated but still stuck in lock-down for another 6 weeks or so. 🤔

See with posts like this, it does take away from one of the reasons i wanted this thread to stay, in that its a bit on the negative side. Although i do think there is some weight behind the thought that there is something political behind some of the announcements recently, there are figures that i follow that make sense to me at least.

Last May/June when we emerged from Lockdown 1, we were seeing New Daily Infections in the 50s and falling, and once in the 20s, stayed there until into August, which seems to have disappeared on the WIKI i look at?

Compare that to now,

New Daily Infections are in the 500s, still too high but have fallen dramatically recently.
We have a vaccines that the evidence is gathering that it are dramatically reducing transmission.
But we still have the dominant Kent Strain of this virus with its higher transmissibility.
We have new mutations that we dont know enough about in regard to the vaccine.

Although i had to make a quick visit to repair my dads car at the weekend, i will very soon be able to sit with them in their garden and there is a chance my work will be returning to normal, something i never thought would be something to look forward to.

We have done bloody well to get where we are, we just need to hold in there for a wee while longer, then its fecking party time!
