Coronavirus (2021) thread

[Eds]

Can someone explain to me this
I live in Sale (Trafford area) and I'm in my 40s so probably have to wait until may for my 1st jab.
I know 3 people younger than me who also live in Trafford with no health conditions and they have had their 1st jab.
Why is this happening?

Could be a GP working through his lists. I know of a GP in Hale Barns who is jabbing people in their 30’s already.People in their 50’s have had both their jabs in his practice. He is doing nothing wrong, he is being given the vaccine and he is cracking on with it

I'm 45, I don't think I have a condition (although I did have fatty liver a few years back). I got a text yesterday.

It could be a number of things worked in my favour - the fatty liver, I've reported hypertension a few times, take meds, have quite a few other mild ongoing things.

But it could just be that like you say, they have supply and it needs to be used.

Find that hard to believe, you have to give your NI number, and how many people know that?

NHS number.

Just 33 deaths reported today. Down from 52 last Sunday. All very encouraging.

It’s sad when we say JUST 33 but I know what you mean mate

Yes. 33 families losing a loved one can never be good news but the downward trend is certainly encouraging especially as the number of cases has now levelled off so it’s a clear sign the vaccine is effective and working as we all hoped it would.

Its impossible and your talking nonsense. I can assure you its because they will have a key word on their records from when they were children. The staff at the health centres are too busy to question the lists they are given.

One of the reasons I don't have vaccine envy. Plus, these things are never going to be perfect for a variety of reasons. I'd rather they vaccinate people quickly rather than spend hours or days going through a database, debating the merits of each case.

My view is that for every vaccination, regardless who gets it, the better. One step closer to the end.

Just had email from daughter's school, shut tomorrow due to a number of positive cases today (lateral flow home testing Sun and Wed). They have hardly been back, mind you watching kids walking back from school and in evenings with no social distancing I am not surprised. I can't see the dates on the roadmap being stuck to.
