Every day the vaccine rolls out

[Chick A Saw]

You think zombie loonies will go for testing?! Don't think so mate. Most of the idiots dancing about in George Square were young so will probably be asymptomatic. The issue is when these people go and visit granny and grandpa a week later. The real numbers from the hun party will show up in a couple of weeks.

They have at least been answering their phones to Track and Trace according to the CMO chappie on Monday who mentioned that some were admitting to have been at the epicentre and associated parties.

Watching Peston tonight, something i try to avoid normally, but he quoted AZN who say the UK.GOV stance on restricting new appointments next month has nothing to do with supply. Be interesting to see what Nic has to say about it, and what Ruth has up her sleeve to deflect the issue! I may have picked up that, while UK.GOV is claiming big numbers of vaccines delivered(or is it offered?), it appears that uptake may be lagging way behind in the percentages up here!

Today in Scotland has seen vaccine dose 1 No 2mil administered today. Tomorrow should see vaccine Dose 2 no 200k administered as well, so fantastic effort from all.

Vaccination progress by age group.
Over 80s, 97.5%
75-79, 99.6%
70-74, 100%
65-69, 97.3% (97.2)
60-64, 66.5% (59.2)
55-59, 42.5% (41.5)
50-54, 34.3% (33.7)
40-49, 25.8% (25.4)
30-39, 18.4% (18.2)
16-29, 11.5% (11.3)

I'm probably being thick here and maybe it's been explained before but what does 100% mean? There's no way that all 70-74 year olds in Scotland have been vaccinated so what does this figure actually signify?

Your gonna have to get in touch with the NHS, but to me 100% can only mean that 100% of 70-74 year olds have been vaccinated. This is only dose 1 info i bring to you, but once i see sufficient progress in Dose 2 reporting, i will start showing that as well. For example, 80+ is now at 9.1% dose 2 and rising quite slow because the bulk of care homes are being dealt with. Because 70-74 are in that no mans land of not working and less likely to be in care homes, they are only 1.2% dose 2 vaccinated, where age groups between 16-64 are showing higher percentages because they are of working age.

Nah, don't buy that. I know people who have refused the vaccine and others that have said they will do. Also there are people with health risks that will be offered it and choose not to take it. I find it very hard to believe that any category will reach 100%.

To be fair chick can only go on what wee nics people are telling us they are saying all 70-74 have had it I have never believed everything polititions tell us but to be fair I don't know anyone in this group that has not had it but if you do then obviously they are lying not chicks fault for believing them though.

My issue is with the figures and not Chick's relaying of them which I think is perfectly clear. Also if the figures are directly reported by the NHS I don't see why it has anything to do with Nicola Sturgeon. I am also not saying that anyone is lying, just stating that there is no way 100% of any age group will be vaccinated.

If they are saying 100% have had first vaccine and 100% have not had first vaccine that to me is a lie?Boris and wee nic have took all the plaudits for the numbers we are getting of vaccines done so if the numbers are not true then they should take the flake for it.I am not saying the numbers are not true though do you know anyone in that age group who has not had the vaccine?

In the old thread, myself and Offshore in the very early days, questioned the deaths reporting, and my thinking on this is no different. Do i believe the figures? No, but its a set of figures that is available from the NHS, which should be removed from political bias, that is based on estimates for each Cohort and age group, so while it says 100% for the bar graph, it may not actually be 100%. To me, Estimate Exceeded in the way they reported the Cohort progress is a better term.

JJ, i dont know anyone who has so far said no, but that does not prevent me from agreeing with you. But like Brian has said, i can only use the figures that i have in front of me, and as i have noticed, it is from the same places others on here look at.
