Will have to change it to Club 18-100 - I can see those reps dishing out party bags of Viagra and sanitary towels upon arrival

They were doing that on the sly when I was 21.

My son is in his 2nd year at uni. He's had all those things you mention. How ,if I have had my vaccine end of May, does me not going on a holiday if it's available change any of what he's sacrificed. He would have no objection to me going away, not that I will be, just because he cant for a few more months. Life isn't always fair, levelling down doesn't make things better for those you level down to.

That’s pretty much the opposite to what the high risk people have been saying for the past 12 months, when people suggested lock down the vulnerable and let the rest carry on.

I think its fair to point out these young'uns that we are having a go at are the front line workers that have been keeping our supermarkets open. I think a lot of them do deserve to not have their nose rubbed in it

Being reported Johnson and Johnson one jab is set for approval in the U S

It was always expected around the end of this week/start of next week - about a month after submissions.
Good news, as it's almost certain to go through having got this far (and being leaked about!).

Because theres a difference between protecting people from dying and another group not being allowed to travel ( by other countries governments probably) for a few weeks or months.
Besides locking down the vulnerable was a stupid idea, and no more than a sound bite, and for that reason no country tried it. Partly because a big part of the vulnerable group were needed to carry on working.
I’ll ask again what good does stopping somebody that’s been vaccinated,that Greece or any other country says can travel from travelling, do for the person Greece says must wait a few months until they are vaccinated. What does it achieve ? As far as I can see nothing at all.
