O/T. The Government's handling of Covid

[Ramshank72]

I've just had my 3rd jab, so UK gov can't be doing too bad on that front.
One major fk up though, is that faulty pcr lab.
A colleague of mine (who thankfully for me, works at another office) is just starting to return to work, his whole household, many colleagues, and other acquaintances have been infected, his wife, and he believes others, having received a faulty "all clear" pcr test. Frightening how quickly it can spread, and it doesn't help with fundamental fk ups like that too.

Fair play on the vaccination front...at first, Ramshank. Where initial vaccinations are concerned they did a decent job.
As far as the 3rd booster jab is concerned however...this jab is meant to be given six months after the second jab. The original vaccines were given just before last Christmas so booster jabs should have been started by late June/early July.
I heard several times on the radio today that so far 5,000,000 booster jabs have been given out. We’re now more than half way through October and ten months on since the first jabs were done so that seems very, very poor to me, a sentiment which all too sadly our latest figures would seem to confirm.
