Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

So you're telling me I can't walk down to my local pub next Wednesday and have a pint without ordering a substantial meal?

Unfortunately that is the case mate.

Option A : Do nothing and watch as they go around with a truck collecting bodies in the street
Option B : Try and save lives

Pick 1.

The only place that A has happened so far is with the Country that caused it. Didn’t take long mind cos very few died.

More excellent news.

Latest infection figures per 100,000 :
Liverpool - 115
Wirral - 98.5, down from 166.4

It’s all gone a bit quiet on the vaccination front.

A couple of weeks ago it seemed fairly certain the vaccination programme would start rolling out at the beginning of December.

 

[TommyDavo]

I don’t really think so. If it was arguments for keeping the cities open, with their high Covid rates, then that might be fair comment. I think this rebellion will be on behalf of those little places, who took the pandemic seriously, have almost no cases, yet are having their lives turned upside down.....

Cities took the pandemic seriously, unfortunately we lack the acreage per person to keep this at bay.

As if by magic - December 7th

Absolute disgrace:

Old people now being told they;'ll have to wait for the AstraZenica vaccine that's not as reliant as Pfizer and NHS workers only getting the Pfizer vaccine.

I suggest you read the detail mate.

If the Pfizer one was shifted to GPs and care homes, by the time it got there, it wouldnt work.

 

[davek]

As predicted: they've ballsed this roll out up. A shower of utter scum.

Months away from any reliable roll out for the vulnerable and even then with the dodgy Oxford vaccine.

In Tier 2? Well they aren't allowed to serve alcohol without a substantial meal if they stick to the rules.

I never said I was tier 2

I've read it. They KNEW that and let people think otherwise...so I suggest you read the comments of the care sector who accusing this lot of betrayal.

Maybe specify that when replying to someone that might be in Tier 2 then.

When a reliable vax is available, the priority will be the vulnerable.

This one isnt able to be moved, nor stored, outside the NHS. So use it or lose it. Not sure why you are against NHS staff getting it.

Sorry, it's like you;re completely forgetting the umpteen times the government told us in the last fortnight how care homes and care home workers will be getting this jab before Christmas.
