ricardo 7,411 Posted January 18, 2022 I got a letter today from NHS saying according to their records I haven't had a second jab or booster. Instead of wasting money on postage they could have looked at my Covid pass App and seen that I've had three. It doesn't give you a lot of confidence when they can't get their own records right.

It's Character Forming 1,167 Posted January 18, 2022 18 hours ago, Well b back said: This is not hindsight please feel free to read my posts about how he did nothing about the variants something Cummings tonight has chosen to make public. Many countries vaccine roll outs were as good as ours and many better ( that is not to say ours was not spectacular ) even if they got of to a slow start. Boris has unfortunately completely f***** up the boosters and his ego will cost the British taxpayers billions over the next few months, with hubs standing empty and millions of vaccine doses wasted. The major countries plan was to vaccinate the world, unfortunately the only countries that attempted that were Russia and China and that was for political gain. We have recently shut our vaccine production plants leaving Europe to manufacture 2 billion doses a year as well as all the proven treatments. Let’s hope that lie doesn’t bite him on the bum come next winter, and likewise by not vaccinating the world we hope again that that is not counter productive. That's dreadful news WBB, I know you're always solid on the news you report but really this is incredible. Why are the MSM not picking this up instead of banging on constantly about parties lat year ? I'm not saying the parties should be ignored, but their non-stop focus on that one issue is not helpful IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it was just a case of the modelling being cautious on severity, you’d think deaths would have been lower throughout. Suggests infections dropping sooner than they thought being one of the main reasons rather than lesser severity? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benchwarmer 625 Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) In September 2021 it was noted in an article in the Times that the AstraZeneca vaccine was being "sidelined" in the booster campaign. If factually correct, why would this be? The AZ vaccine is (or was) manufactured in the UK and has a significantly lower unit cost than the rest. Lack of proven efficacy? or politically driven, based on the company's decision to relocate manufacturing within the EU among other places? (thank you Brexit). Or a bit of both? Just asking.

Essjayess 307 Posted January 19, 2022 Omicron continues its global journey (i am presuming ). Japan, one of the more successful nations in keeping down Covid infections thru the different variants today recorded a record daily high for new infections with 29, 850. Seems Omicron will be dominant all round the world at least until the next variant with high contagion topples it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KernowCanary 214 Posted January 19, 2022 Cannot see anything as spreading as Omicron to be honest. There will be a new variant but I’m sure those in charge will be ready for it for once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
