We’ve been administering the vaccine for a couple of weeks at least mate. The advert was on St. John’s for weeks beforehand as everyone knew it was coming so plenty of time to get people on board in my humble opinion

Whoosh

That’s 30mins work.
Dentists and military medics will be aufait with most of the mandatory topics and will generally opt to take the assessment straight away.
Sticking a needle in someone’s arm and pressing a plunger isn’t the most difficult task in the world but when something goes wrong you’d expect the vaccinator to be able to manage the situation.

In data awareness?
Really?

Merseyside mayor on BBC now saying he is afraid their hospitals will be overwhelmed. Um then why did you not demand tier 4 instead of acting as a poster child for doing what you were told and accepting the reward of tier 3 when cases were escalating?

Indeed he is now suggesting the testing there be used as a way to help deploy the vaccine.

Is that a suggestion because Liverpool is now badly infected it should get more vaccine?

I'm ok mate.
Criticism where it's due and credit where it's due.
Also I won't be measuring vaccine rollout performance against the mid Feb date given by BoJo.
I regard it as an aspiration and will be pleased if we get close to it.

Local ice cream shop has just announced on social media how delighted they are to still be open and all the measures they have in place bla bla bla.

Frustrating as fuck yet there's nothing I or anyone can do unless the government step in and specifically tell them they have to shut.

Just one example of many businesses finding loopholes to keep their doors open. Food = essential. Ice cream, fuck off. Take some personal responsibility and we might get out of this mess.

That’s part of the mandatory training for most folk working in the NHS. What’s your problem with 1/2 a days paid training to allow someone to administer a potentially fatal vaccine?

Take a breath before you see todays England hospital deaths. The big catch up begins.

582 - it was 365 last Tuesday.

Even worse - the NW long weekend catch up gives the region its highest ever daily total 109.

At least hopefully just the weekend catch up not the new normal for the NW.

Though not the biggest of the day. London had 120.

We have something similar here. I live near Hollingworth Lake and the chippy there is doing a roaring trade today. Yes its food and yes its a takeaway so can't really argue with them being open on those grounds but really, is it absolutely necessary for people to stand in a queue at least a dozen people long on a Tuesday lunchtime to get some fish and chips???

This is going to be similar across the country which is why I don't think this lockdown will be anywhere near as effective as before, going to be lots of stuff open that weren't last time.
