Not where the general public can come on here and spout bollocks.

I think you have just summed up Bluemoon to perfection...

It’s on North West Tonight now. A Youth Worker from Moss Side is saying he’s had a lot of youth and young adult black people coming to him with conspiracy theories about Covid.

In a recent survey:
72% of black people say they won’t have the vaccine.
Compared to 42% of Asian and 15% of white people.

The youth worker said there needs to be some black doctors and role models coming forward to promote the vaccine to black people.

It’s alarming though! Where are these 72% 42% and 15% spending their time? Where are they getting their information? What are they reading? Who’s influencing them?

I came across an article on this a few days ago. One of the suggestions was a lack of trust in research due to perceived (or actual?) under representation of BAME individuals in the research sample.

I would think there also concerns about contents of the vaccine. Some think it contains traces of pork, and I think I heard, some think it contains traces of egg.

Well Patel is doing it

Either way Up is bad, down is good.

Bury 77- down from 105. Total cases 14, 062. Weekly 655. Snatches best weekly total from Oldham, Pop score up 41 to 7363. Weekly Pop down 27 to 343.

A lot of big falls again from numbers last week show in the Weekly Pop score falls. Now only Manchester outside the 300s where eight boroughs now sit and Manchester only just above as 407. With Oldham at 280 the best asnd only one in the 200s.

How old is he tiny good luck in his recovery

Thank you. He’s 45 but has a lot of heart issues in his family, he’s been tested to the hilt and seemingly doesn’t suffer.

He had blood taken abs xrays, xrays were clear abs blood tests show a bacterial infection. Suggestion is that because his body is fighting Covid and Bacterial he’s really suffered.

Docs weren’t too concerned with his heart rate and were happy with his lungs following the initial paramedic view. He’s been prescribed some antibiotics and he’s home now thankfully. Super scary and my sister is now a nervous wreck so will no doubt not sleep for checking on him.

Sit him up in bed and let him watch thr Dipper /Burnley game on repeat, that should cheer him up and revive his spirits. All the best to you all
