If so that’s really positive and cause for increased optimism. That’s about 7.5m a month so we should all be done (adults) by September if supply holds up.

jmjhb Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) Not far off In fact, the whole tweet was informative: 32,325,993 doses of COVID-19 vaccine have now been administered in the United Kingdom. +559,324 doses in the latest 24hr period. 29,316,130 people have received their first dose, with 3,009,863 of those having a second dose (fully vaccinated) Edited March 26, 2021 by jmjhb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Spider Posted March 26, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 26, 2021 Good luck telling half the country they can go on holiday, and the other half that they can't. Fucking hell Mounts, you think nothing through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know full well it's not about what you leave with now, its about what you might bring back. Also - and I can't emphasise this enough because you seem oblivious to it - there are MILLIONS of people wanting to go abroad. Exponentially speaking, the risks are on the high side.

And test them at the airport on way back and if they test positive the whole family stay in a quarantine facility for until a negative. Test at the cost of the travelers? that’s a fair compromise as I don’t want people coming back into the uk infected. and fwiw im Planning two holidays this year abroad still. But I wouldn’t expect to be let back in or even board a plane home if infected you would be happy with that compromise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hell Mounts, you think nothing through. Absolutely. Genuine questions of discrimination then. Can imagine yoof sitting back in doors whilst grandparents go to the pub etc. That's why these vaccine passport jobs won't be produced (if at all) until everyone vaccinated.

Pure diversionary tactics from their ineptitude. They've made a rod for their own backs by putting the fear of God into the people over rhetoric AZ vaccine. Denmark still not using it (2 more weeks) for example. Hope we've got some military helicopters on standby to fly these vaccines out- absolutely no point supplying them if the public won't have it.

I suppose its about those that haven't had it, but most of those won't frequent pubs! Might need one in future to go abroad, but that's not going to be for a while.

A good piece, and thankfully there seemed to be shit loads of vials still being filled and ready for use. Working 7 days a week and some decent, dedicated staff too.

Id be happy as per last year, took tests both ways, and quarantined 5 days test & trace, by end of august every one vaccinated anyhow so it’s slight overkill but would accept it. No need for hotel quarantine unless it’s red list destination your coming back from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully cases everywhere by end of July are virtually zero so folk can go away should they wish.
