She is one smug looking twat

brought to you by the letter O in police, and the letter g at the end of any word ending in ing.

They won't be present in anything Patel says.

Cant bear this women

Me neither. Not even sure why.

Have you thought that through ?

 

[N1985]

As will we. No way will we really exit until pretty much everyone over 60 is immunised imo. Maybe even over 50.

And rightly so.

5 million vaccinated is bloody brilliant.

Not for everyone. Just the organisers. Who could just recoup it from all those attending. So it was peanuts.

It always should have been a big fine for everyone there.

That is a deterrent not just a ticket fee.

This press conference seems to have a very angry tone, I think they are getting pissed off with people, they are basically shouting at the camera. Good on them, should’ve been done earlier.

Hurrah!. A hefty fine for everyone who attends a party.

An obvious thing mentioned in here that is way overdue.

You want a party you accept the fine as a fee you charge all who attend.

Most will not pay £800 fines each.

Just seen that this is only applicable to parties of over 15 people. I wonder how the cut off was calculated, why not 10? Or perhaps even less. 14 people at a house party is pretty huge and completely out of order in the current circumstances.

Well Patel is doing it
A patronising bully.

No one cares though. There’s not exactly any repercussions for doing stupid shit (like attempting to jump the vaccine queue) so why should anyone listen?

I was going to write all of them, clearly there isnt room for that but we must have room for the organisers with most others in lockdown

Any news on the Janssen vaccine approval/phase 3 trials

Ivermectin is not going away. Financial Times now pushing this, not some crank site. Really seems to be something notable.

Cheap antiparasitic could cut chance of Covid-19 deaths by up to 75%

Researchers hail ivermectin findings but say more studies needed on using drug

www.ft.com

"A cheap, off-patent antiparasitic drug has been shown to have a significant effect in reducing mortality in patients with moderate to severe Covid-19. Researchers have hailed the preliminary finding as a pivotal step towards broadening the arsenal of drugs used against the disease.

The University of Liverpool’s Andrew Hill and others carried out a meta-analytical breakdown of 18 studies that found that ivermectin was associated with reduced inflammation and a faster elimination of Sars-Cov-2, the virus that causes Covid-19.

In six of these trials, the risk of death was reduced by 75 per cent in a subset of patients with moderate to severe Covid-19."

I'm thinking more along the lines of the virus spreading from said gatherings.

Any news on the Janssen vaccine approval/phase 3 trials

Trial results expected at the end of January.
(for clarity, this is also called a Johnson & Johnson vaccine).

Priti ‘quite frankly’ Patel

Regional Scoreboard highlights:


West Midlands, South West up but only by tiny numbers. 38 and 17 respectively

London up quite a bit - by 1545 to 7735.

Every other region down. By between 100 and 500 only.

North West falls the most - by 847 to 4431.

All a show. Schools were told by DfE this week they would lose all funding for nursery children if they weren’t seen to be encouraging their attendance. And they massively widened the key worker criteria. And some parents are selfish arseholes. We had SEVEN kids in during 1st lockdown all children of NHS or care home staff. We have 72 in next week with more to follow. This will kill people. Parents brothers sisters, teachers TAs caretakers, it will help overload the hospitals so forgive me but their shouting is all a facade ( and yes, I do know it should have a cedilla!). They are utterly fucking inept and downright lethal
