So people expect the Oxford vaccine roll out to go from 6 hospitals to over 1000 sites without any hiccups. Total bollocks of course.

Some further info.

Really prefer reading it when it's summarised so simply as that, makes it much easier to understand. Thanks for the link.

I'm no expert at summarising this, but I *think* this is a previously infected person being reinfected with the SA strain, and the reinfection being more severe than the original.

Taking a quick look at the case report, she appeared to take prednisolone well before it is recommended for treatment in the first infection which could blunt her immune response. Reinfection was known before I would not be too worried based on one case.

They’re doing it, finally! I’ve been calling for this for months.. they’re finally saying if you don’t follow the rules you will contribute to killing people!

FINALLY!

Boris also said “these people who are outside hospitals protesting and calling this whole thing a hoax simply need to grow up” WELL SAID!

The head of the NHS said “if you’re someone who sneaks into a hospital at nine o’clock and take a picture of an empty corridor and then post that on social media claiming the NHS is not overwhelmed... YOU ARE LYING, and you are contributing to the spread of false information, the virus and deaths” WELL SAID!

FINALLY!

All that was missing there was the army bloke coming in third and saying “we will work with the Police to lock these people up!”

Okay, GM is rising but not yet struggling despite the huge rise in the North West.

As before other parts of the NW driving the big numbers.

Indeed despite the GM total rising from 1583 to 1777 (highest in two months) on a day numbers in UK fell by 10,000 cases - that 194 rise is a modest part of the 1368 increase in the NW.

As a result the % of the NW that GM contributed was down from 27% to 24.9%

I take it this is a prelude to your “look away now if you’re in Merseyside or the Wirral”?

The vaccine roll-out is far too slow.

The vaccine roll-out is far too slow.

Its as quick as it can be with supply chains and quicker than most.Far too early to say it's too slow.
