Every day the vaccine rolls out

[AraBrian]

The az vaccine will be rolled out in the EU after their inquiry ruled it safe.Seems they were at it cause of brexit ��

While refusing to use the vaccines they have been supplied with out of spite they are threatening to sue because they are not getting enough to not use

11 cases of Covid at St. Andrews Uni halls of residence. More than 40 now isolating.

Here we f*cking go again.

Seems to me the EU is trying everything it can to make the UK either look bad, or slow down the effort in delivering the vaccine. England are stopping people booking vaccination slots after Cohort 9 is complete because of a supply issue that Hancock skimmed past, and it seems to have a desire to catch those that have been missed in this effort!

All the EU are doing is shooting themselves in the foot. F*ck them. Let them do what they want while we crack on with vaccinating the country.

Think they are jealous of what we have managed to do as a single nation, while they couldnt get an agreement between the 27 and are now using their apparent might to litigate a share of the vaccine supply they were too late to contribute to, and not entitled to!

Heard on Talk Sport and Radio Scotland at work that there is a supply issue with the vaccine again.

There is undoubtedly a political element to how this was all reported. There are significant differences in drug monitoring agencies. The MHRA in the UK can be frustrating at times but is relatively easy to navigate in comparison to the European equivalents. Has been an issue for a long time before Brexit!

Our vaccine roll out has been so successful due to the NHS processes that have been in place for years.
European Jealousy perhaps, but not politically or Brexit related if you ask me

Then why stop our vaccines from Belgium 250K going to Africa after all they didn’t want them?

As ive always understood this, you become infectious to others and start showing symptoms around day 5-7, so everyone who has contracted this should have submitted themselves for testing by now. By day 10-14, you are either in hospital or well on the way to recovery.

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.

That is completely political unfortunately. Reflects to some degree the lack of strategic monitoring availability in the countries in Africa. In effect becomes one voice against another and without a working safety/monitoring structure in place for the African nations it is an impossible challenge for WHO and every other regulatory body to police.

Right to think it ridiculous, beauricratic and fundamentally wrong to not use stock but sadly that is unlikely to change anytime soon
