Nope. Just managed to find out what's going on and Mum's local health centre will *start* vaccinating the highest priority groups on 15th and 16th. They are *starting* vaccinations in the care homes on the 18th. WTF if taking them this long???

This is good news. I hope things don't get ugly with queue jumping etc. Talk Sport did a piece on this but ultimately it sounds like this won't happen. Any immunity passports which are rolled out ahead of the nation being vaccinated can f*ck right off. Whilst the government have said that they won't introduce "immunity passports" we know that they are lying B*stards and there's currently a tender out for an immunity phone app.

Surely you're not that naive to believe that this will not be introduced across the world .
Within 12 months you wont be going anywhere ,unless you can show you been immunized and have the correct documentation.
No government across the world will openly admit too this now, but once they have a certain percentage of the population vaccinated, it will become legislation in every country

I mentioned premature roll out of the passport ahead of the nation being vaccinated would be bollocks. I do believe that roll out would take place once most/all the population has been offered the vaccine. Otherwise it would surely push elitism and be unfair to those who are back of the queue.

Once vaccination has been rolled out then fine, the passport could come in to play and would limit anti-vaxers and allow global travel etc.

Couldn't believe the ginger twat was coming out with that & even worse no condemnation from the wonderful BBC.

Cunts the lot of them.

Sometimes you just let people get hung by their own petard.

No commentary is needed with Dyche, just put it front and centre and pretty much everyone will react the same way.

Care homes need to have consent forms completed before they can begin.

Yes, it's probably driven by a desire to show that something is being done.

I'm not against it, just need to be realistic that it will make near zero difference while we're infecting ~100,000 every day inside the country...

I don’t think that’s entirely the case though. It’s correct to say we have to take measures internally. But the WSL is evidence that people travelling into the country is a problem. Large numbers of players went off to Dubai and returned with covid. Now games are being postponed.

1. It's not about money. If a fit 20yo gets a vaccine, someone higher risk will die or end up hospitalised as a result. Its that simple.

2. If you believe money would go to the NHS from this, I have a bridge for sale you may be interested in.

Most footballers would think it allows them to go back to their partying lifestyles. For that reason alone they should be told to eff off.

Oh, sure, I'm not saying it won't reduce a few cases.

But there are ~100,000 every day within the country. Imported numbers are a drop in the ocean by comparison. That, plus vaccination, is where the focus needs to be.
 
Got tested on Wednesday morning, was told to expect result in 24-48hrs, Now gone 48hrs and no result so rang the hotline and gave details, I'm in the system but was told results are now taking up to 5 days due to high demand. My wife and eldest cant work due to self isolating until result.
