My mother in law 81 and not in great health got her letter on Saturday. I went on line for her to book her in. We live in Macclesfield. Option 1 was Widnes, Option 2 was Birmingham!! Luckily I am retired so Off to Widnes we go on Wednesday. Bit of a Fred Carnos but at least she is now getting the vaccine.My mum phoned her doctor this morning, and was given an appointment for Thursday, so get her to phone, she'll surely get one as she's 10 years older than my mum.
I cannot do it for her sadly. I did speak to her brother who lives on the Lancashire coast to say why this matters. But he is five years younger than her and already had his. Hopefully she did what she promised me yesterday and asked her doctor what I told her to ask - Are there really two million people in the UK more vulnerable than I am given the warnings you keep giving me doctor? Or is it that you are just writing me off as not worth protecting? My friend who is journalist told me to ask.My mum phoned her doctor this morning, and was given an appointment for Thursday, so get her to phone, she'll surely get one as she's 10 years older than my mum.
A poster on here seemed to say that on Zakynthos things run well because the residents obey the rules ref masks and distance. Greeks don't do rules very well but they seem to have more commonsense than many here.The deal is that these are extraordinary times which call for certain rules that while they may look draconian on the face of it, are absolutely necessary in a situation like this. That's the same for this country and every other country in the world that is trying to fight this pandemic. If anything, we're proving to be less of police state than pretty much any other country with the exception of North Korea. Go to the Isle Of Man and you don't just get fined for breaking quarantine rules - they throw you in prison. Anti-lockdown protestors in Germany aren't getting the softly softly approach from the police like they are over here - they're getting water-cannoned into the next fucking postcode. You can't leave your house in Greece unless you have a valid reason and even then you have to text a government number first. Brisbane and the surrounding area has just gone into full lockdown with nobody allowed in or out because of ONE positive case.
Bloody good idea , limit shopping to 1 person , let people shop once a weekNicola Sturgeon just said in Scotland they are meeting to consider reducing click and collect retail to essential items only and stricter restrictions onto takeaway food to limit further the ability of people to meet.
