The vaccines look like they're being pushed out at a great rate of knots as well, so there is finally a bit of light at the end of this very, very long tunnel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For some bizarre reason my ISP put a wank-filter on my connection over the festive period... It took about 48hrs for it to be removed. I discovered, during those dark hours and with an idea sparked unsurprisingly from here*, that if one went on a random twitter page, then used the 'search' facility for various porn stars, they'd often have viewable XXX material that the adult content filter didn't erm...filter. I still think Twitter is used solely by wankers though, in fact probably even more so... * The infamous 'Geoffrey' footage - and, no, I fucking didn't 😉, but that was where I learned that Twatter allows porn...

Some interesting details I learned earlier from Zahawi in his briefing of the committee. Israel is doing a turn up, queue and get your vaccine system. Means things start quicker. We've focused on at risk/elderly groups, which initially (because of need to take vaccine to some) is slower. Two different approaches. Whether one proves slightly better- not sure. One for Peely maybe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes,going of my age it should be mid June but they are hopeful it will be April if everything goes to plan.Even though I've been advised to shield they say I am not at the very high risk level unlike the ones that got the letter but it would be much safer to be cautious Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect all over 50s- the initial block of cohorts- will be done a bit sooner. Just going off the expansion of the system. Presumably the rate of administration of first jabs will not rise as quickly (or plateau) once second jabs come into the set up, but listening to the AZ top brass, I envisage growth in vaccine supply.
