Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

[JLW]

You're quite probably right. Everyone who has historically been vulnerable to severe complications from the virus will have been vaccinated (bar those few who refuse it), so that would explain the very low death rate we're seeing not just here, but throughout Europe (there are around 350 deaths per day for the entire EU at the moment, with its 450 million people). You've almost got more chance of winning the lottery than dying from Covid, but we better be safe...

"Studies show that COVID-19 vaccines are effective at keeping you from getting COVID-19. Getting a COVID-19 vaccine will also help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19."

As I said above, that ratio of deaths per case is enormously down on all other periods of the pandemic. The vaccines are working. It's not ugliness at all.

Have my appointment for my first Jab next Friday - happy days

How many fully vaxed people are getting it? Anyone know the data?

From the latest report

Plans to redraw June 21 roadmap include social distancing, home working and masks

Any delay to a full relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions on 21 June will come as a body blow to the hospitality sector - it may hold up the reopening of nightclubs and could put the the viability of summer music festivals in doubt

Well the lockdown zealots will be delighted. Of course, their happiness is everyone else's misery.
