Coronavirus (2021) thread

I guess in some ways this rapid spread through the sections of the community impacted most by this infectious variant MIGHT turn out to be a good thing if it does its bit to create a degree of immunity in the communities less likely to be vaccinated.

Vaccinations plus people catching it combined is really the only way humans will get some kind of long term resistance to this thing - if indeed long term resistance is achievable.

21st June will be pushed back..I'm putting money on it

That glass still half empty isn’t it? You were betting on Monday being delayed and no Everton game earlier

Go on, enlighten me

Don’t worry, he won’t!

Disappointed with the response.

I'm baffled as to how the best use of vaccines is for people who are largely immune to become even more immune when the people most likely to transmit it aren't immune at all.

If people think they’re going to be 5 deep at a bar in a nightclub, jumping round with their mates on a dance floor without masks on on June 21st they’re nuts

i have a feeling the goverment are using the people that have had the vaccine as test dummies knowing the spread of this indian covid variant is happening ? boris has said no fears in its beating the vaccines. but the spread and how it spreads quckily is unknown and the warning bells in bolton and scotland are only small ??

the virus is airborne and can live longer than the others and the truth is nobody know how far in the air it can travel
also the people in the bolton are going to other towns for work and meetting other people and family

i said yesterday a 3rd wave is happening right now ? the goverment know about it and want to use the vaccine and the people as a test because its still unkown if it can work in keep the numbers down

Agreed. What kind of mad head goes to a nightclub on a Monday?

they probably won’t know all they need to about the vaccine until it’s trial ends in 2023 and gets FDA approved

No change unless you like in Jockland.
Only changes in England are:
- Speeding up of 2nd jab to an 8 week cycle rather than 12. By my rough calculation that would mean everyone over 45 would be double jabbed by 21 June.
- More surge testing and increased first jabs surrounding the areas of concern.
Jockland has delayed lifting of restrictions in 2 areas for a week.

Thanks mate much appreciated.
