Coronavirus (2021) thread

Right from the start i have said to everyone thank you for working, chemist, the staff in casualty and on the wards, amazon and shopping deliveries, the bank, on the odd trip to tesco, they are all taken aback that they are thanked but to me they all deserve it

what about the property developers?

well that was the original plan wasn’t it vaccinate our way to freedom. Get the most vulnerable protected and then back to normal ish

however based on recent press conferences and statements my fear is they have no intention of releasing any of the restrictions any time soon.

Exactly
The acceptable risk is apparently no longer acceptable.
They’ve got opposition in parliament.
I can’t see civil unrest occurring this summer if they try and do what it looks like they are going to do.
There’s no way the younger half of the population will accept being locked up for another summer

I see Heathrow is copping some stick on Twitter this morning.
If ever you were going to make sure you had every member of staff on duty and were getting people through customs as quickly as possible, surely you'd do it when you knew a plane load of journalists who'd been in Washington covering the US election was landing!

Have a great day everyone!! Chilling this morning, bike ride this pm and a curry and the mighty blues later!!

A RONA FREE DAY!!!

Looking forward to today's game. Will avoid all the news channels today as it is too depressing even if Worsley thinks Boris and his bunch of morons are on top of this

Just received my vaccine and as of yet Bill Gates hasn't made me do anything slightly disappointed

So once the top 9 priority groups are vaccinated that prevents 99% of deaths

what % of ICU and Hospital admissions does it prevent

Reality and carping are not synonymous.

There is no reason whatever why we couldn't have reacted earlier at every stage, and if we had, tens of thousands now dead would be alive.

You don’t know that, you are surmising. It’s a pandemic, how many pandemics have you been through? At a time when we should ALL
be trying to act as one unit as much as possible, I for one, can’t see any value in carping.

Anyone know of any means to request an antibody test?

I’ve started on lateral flow testing with work now but I’m intrigued having never actually been out of school since this whole show started.

In the Oxford/Astra Zeneca trials no-one who received the vaccine but who then went on to contract Covid was hospitalised or died so you would expect numbers in hospital to reduce rapidly.
