O/T. The Government's handling of Covid

Never heard of him.

I have.

Fergus Walsh...BBC’s ‘Medical Editor/Senior Correspondent’. My personal choice of most trustworthy source of information throughout the pandemic.

Mine too

Now Germany, you couldn't make this **** up, you really couldn't.

That has now convinced me more than ever, that this is political.
Perhaps they will cancel all operations next then? Seeing as you have a 1 in 10 000 chance of dying under anesthetic.

Laughable.

I concur.
It makes the triggering of article 16 even more pathetic now.

Fraid not, they are still taking receipt of the vaccine, just not injecting into victims

I stand corrected, AZ are reducing deliveries to EU so if they are keeping overall production at hue same level it could impact favourably on U.K.

I really do hope you guys are right and not just guilty of complacency.
Amongst all the back slapping let’s just remember that we in the UK are potential ‘guinea pigs’. The vaccine has been developed astonishingly quickly and hasn’t been tested to the same extent as others.
I sincerely hope, and believe, that you’re better off having it than not having it...but let’s not forget than most of those in charge have screwed up monumentally in almost every other aspect of handling the pandemic.
It’s very early days...less back slapping complacency and politicking about other countries please.

It’s not politicking when the only one of my Spanish friends to be vaccinated is (as mentioned a while ago) a nurse friend who got it done in Belfast. Even my ex gardener Michael is unvaccd and he is 67 with a heart condition. Do you understand the numbers here rA?

Dogs and mangers in close alignment comes to mind. We dont want it, but you who might usefully inject it cannot have it
