No idea how the app works, the daughter just showed me her vaccination record on her MyGP thing on her phone, maybe speak to your practice to get it unlocked or is it something you can unlock yourself?

Think there are different apps used by surgeries, my mums use MyGP and ours uses a different one, can’t recall the name as I don’t have it on my phone. Have to register for online access, not sure all surgeries are set up for it though.

you don’t actually understand how rude you are sometimes. Every time I come on here you are in a spat with someone. It detracts from a really good thread.

Got my invitation to jab today. Age 72, vulnerable thru immuno suppressant drugs. Booked in for 12 feb. Yay!
The online booking system is a bit rickety. Got to the end and was informed that one of the slots was no longer available, but not which one (you book 2nd jab at the same time). Had to almost start again and, guess what, new chosen slot still not available. Filled in form 3 times, got there in the end.
Tbf, the roll out is going really well. Well done Boris!

I guess the only way to find out is download it and see how far it let's you get?

34,000 was the UK total. England alone last had 34,000 about two weeks ago.

The ones I post in detail daily are for England.

And yes they are as of yesterday unlike most of the ones the media use. NHS England posts the data around tea time daily but it often is not added to the Gov UK site until later or next day. And the other nations data can be days old.

There are about 4300 from the other three nations in hospital atop the 28, 112 for England so around 32,500 in UK as of last night.

Thanks for the clarification

No because the rates will subside in the summer like last year and that was the scenario being put.

should we release restrictions if hospitalisations haven’t come down enough is a different question

Your argument is based on supposition then as, last year we didn't have these new strains to contend with
 
Scotland data update:

6 deaths - was 4 last week

848 cases - was 752 last week

9.5% positivity - was 8.1% last week

244 Greater Glasgow, 167 Lanarkshire, 111 Lothian

1958 in hospital (up 17) - was 2016 last week

143 on ventilator icu beds (same) - was 151 last week

A little disappointing as up in nearly all measures today a little.

Dissappointing indeed. Hopefully an anomaly. Off the top of your head, is this the first time in a while that one of the nations have gone up in both cases and % positive for quite some time? Not the best start to the week however hopefully tomorrow will fall more in line with the recent trend.
 
A friend of ours who lives in South Wales, has received her invitation to attend her GP's practice tomorrow to receive her vaccine. She is 70 and they were doing their groups differently than England as the previous group was 73-75 year olds. Now doing the 70-72 group
 
Scottish Vaccinations Update:

575, 897 first dose vaccinations - that is just 9628 in the day if my sums are right. Very low.

Nicola Sturgeon says she has asked her teams to find out if there is a way to speed up Sunday numbers which dip each week. But this seems the lowest so far even on a Sunday.


She is getting quite a bit of flack from journalists saying NW England is already vaccinating under 70s. Why are Scotland behind.
 
Nicola Sturgeon noted that 98% of all care home residents have HAD the vaccine not 'been offered it' which is the words that England used to describe a lower number.

I find that English wording rather odd too as it creates the impression they are trying to hide the fact many may be declining.

As she argued - being offered it is not much use as a figure. Only actually having it matters!

She adds that aside from the 98% care home residents who have had the vaccine 88% of staff now have too.

And 80% of all over 80s living in the community have too.
