I think they are placing massive faith in the vaccination programme to drive down hospitalizations and I firmly believe 21st June England will be fully open for business. we shall see of course amongst other things, the roadmap / plan takes into account "behavioural responses to any changes" and assumes "no change in adherence following vaccination" that'll be the biggest factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s why we are still here. But it’s never spoken of for some reason. We all know many people doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end no. If vaccine numbers are very high, the virus is manageable. Just got to get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance. That’s one figure that will fall. Should a large increase in cases actually occur, then there may well be hospitalisations and deaths, but not at the previous rate. The figures for protection, including in the old, from the vaccine are tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjhb Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 in 8 weeks time the vast majority of the 60-79 bracket should be seeing the effects from their first dose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Deaths are always the last thing to move. So the current deaths are related to the infections of 4-5 weeks ago. The drop in infections in recent weeks has according to the briefings exceeded expectations. That alone would be encouraging but infections can happen after vaccination, but deaths should be massively lower. Hopefully the drop in deaths is 'guaranteed' for next 3-4 weeks based on the drop in infections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall, with fondness, the time at my favourite Cretan apartments where someone came down complaining there wasn’t a medium saucepan in their kitchenette. The apartment owner turned to me as I sat with beer in hand and asked if I had a saucepan. I said I think So and he asked me to get it. The bloke complaining turned round and asked if that wouldn’t inconvenience me. Er, no! I told him I’d been coming here for 6 or 7 years and he was the first person who, apart from coffee or tea, actually cooked. Another bloke complained that the kettle was full of limescale. The Greek owner went to their store and brought out a brand new kettle. Bloke asked where his water was! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think that’s the case, remember the target was to offer to the top priority list, but they made it with actual jabs. Something else, don’t know what.

Medical professional think she was something to do with the vaccines task force said there will be daily peaks and troughs due to the nature of batch supply, and to look at the trend over at least a couple of weeks or so rather than daily or even weekly numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
