COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[Bluesince1979]

Reports stating 70k new cases in the last few days.
Not sure how bad that is compared to when the virus started.
But it seems a hell of a lot...

Are you trying to neg my out further ?? ;)

Those were my thoughts too.

I was thinking a stamp to the face personally.

then I thought it would be funnier to roll trollies at him at high speed from different angles.

Manufacturing issues mean there is only 50% of the expected supply available would guess they will have to pro rata.

Supply challenges cause Pfizer’s vaccine production target to be cut

Pfizer spokesperson reveals supply challenges and late clinical trial results contributed to its COVID-19 vaccine production target being halved.

That 50% only refers to the anticipated delivery in 2020, so a cut from 100 million to 50 million. At the same time, it is increasing production so should have more available in early 2021.

Quite.
There are about 25 million of 50 or over, plus the vulnerable who are younger.

By the time they try something more nuanced by geography, they should have reached 80-90% of those in the main target area. At that point, as long as there aren't shortages in any region, they should just get on with it.

I highly doubt they'll want to keep London in Tier 4 lockdown until march (the target for vaccinating the over 50s).

As much as there are wankers in the U.K., it could be worse...

Bucket off piss all over the fkwitt.
Or drag the c.nt out for trespassing.

Imagine we had no source of media, we would be completely f*cked!

all the rules on social distancing, hand washing, contagious areas etc have been given to us via the media.

Ive just had a letter through the door sent by the Health Board and local authority about it

Looking at the curve will be a political decision on when to reduce measures a lot of the risk is mitigated very early in programme.

Just had another letter telling me to shield as my area is now tier 4. I live in Rochdale which is currently tier 3.
Just wandering if it has been sent by mistake, or is tier 4 coming during xmas when the poster of said email will be on holiday. Leaving the mainstream media to deliver the bad news.

That's the spirit.

Obviously you’ll be out there volunteering then on your days off for weeks possibly months?
