Covid: Boris Johnson 'anxious' about Indian variant

UK cases of the variant have more than doubled in the past week, says Public Health England.

www.bbc.co.uk

Surge jabs ?

WTF is going on here. We’re going to balls this up aren’t we.

My understanding of it is, in areas where the Indian variant is prevalent, they`ll take the likes of mobile vaccination centres in, with no appointment system, making it much easier to get the vaccine.

Makes sense to me.

* They`ve already said that the next stage of re opening on Monday will still go ahead, but that they`ll be keeping their eye on the" last one " in June.

What you have to remember is that a lot can happen either way ( as we`ve previously seen ) between now and then.

Just seen the dates for the 'Covid-19 - Keep the People Fearful' UK Tour - Looks exciting

13th May - Indian Variant
20th May - Venezuelan Variant
27th May - Kurdistan Variant
3rd June - Alaskan Variant
10th June - Cambodian Variant
17th June - New Zealand Variant (Limited number of tickets available)

Many a true word spoken in jest and all of that.
I actually do agree with you. Keep the fear factor high
and people will be compliant.

Vaccines seem to work well against coronavirus variants. It's also complicated

Exactly how well the Covid-19 vaccines stack up against different variants — including the new one that’s emerged in India — gets complicated. STAT’s @DrewQJoseph breaks it down.

www.statnews.com

The sooner people get round to the idea that vaccines are only a part answer the better. Hopefully we hobble together a functioning health service that can manage COVID and free social mixing life, well at least something near that reflects our apparent wealth and standing.

Doing good over here, things gone into turbo boost the past two weeks, 38% of the population have dose 1 so far, 14% fully vaccinated.

Got a text to register for a vaccine earlier on, sent an email, booked in for tomorrow for my 2nd jab.

God bless the NHS.
