There's a lot of people/governments who look extremely foolish now - but the most annoying thing is thinking about just how many more lives could have been saved without this pointless delay when the EMA have been saying it is fine to continue to use the vaccine the entire time. Really shoddy in all respects.

The incidence rate is lower than in the general population. It's broadly the same for Pfizer and AZ.

There's no evidence of causation whatsoever. What this is is a massive overabundance of POLITICS

Which is fine, they should do that, but this doesn't need to be made political. It's a case of being right for the wrong reasons when we're in the midst of a pandemic - this is a response you'd see to a medication in a normal world.

fixed.....
 
Daily COVID cases seem to have stabilised at around 5-6k, which is a bit worrying as it means the R rate must be closer to 1 again.

There's actually been more reported thrombosis cases in the Pfizer vaccine.

For some reason I can't find out, nobody seems to care/be reporting on that though.

Which is... odd.

not really - again, it’s probably who these clots are happening to rather than the number of clotting incidents that is behind these concerns

Yeah I have noticed that in the last few days, but the hospitalisations are falling quite a lot which is good. The lower the case numbers fall, the harder it probably is to get them to fall further, until the vaccine is available to more age groups.

Worth considering that the flattening of the downward curve in cases is occurring at the same time as a vast increase in daily tests performed, so it could be that we're simply picking up more cases that would otherwise have gone unreported.

Good to see this happen so quickly after that certain letter Laura K from the BBC was so eager to mention before any other Juno.

The government dashboard has updated early today. It’s usually at 17:00 on a weekday.

Anyhow, we have today 6,303 new cases from 1,635,141 tests and 95 deaths. This time last week, we had 6,753 new cases and 181 new deaths. 758 over the past seven days, it’s really coming down now. With cases over the past seven days, we are on 39,205.

561,820 active cases according to Worldometer.
 
Hospital figures - 113 deaths were announced today, up 20 on yesterday and down 86 on last Thursday. 97 deaths were in English hospitals, up 20 on yesterday and down 62 on last week. The 7 day rolling average falls to 110.43

All settings - for the 28 day cut off, 95 deaths were announced today, down 46 on yesterday and down 86 on last Thursday. The 7 day rolling average falls to 108.29

For the 60 day cut off, 184 deaths were announced today, down 107 on yesterday and down 93 on last Thursday. The 7 day rolling average falls to 209.71
