Of course you can’t, but the bottle neck isn’t getting it in the country, as Casino has said it’s complexity after that. GP’s surgeries worrying they might not get through a whole 900 injections, pudding about with consent forms ffs 

I wonder how many of the millions of people who have lost their jobs signed a consent form for that? 

Its bollocks 

No its not.

I posted a good while back about the hoops that have to be gone through. It isnt as simple as you make it out.

Hundreds, if not thousands of new low temp freezers had to be made. Then the mhra impose their own rules which restrict how its it transported and used.

Now there's a new variant, which infecting more people including nhs staff.

But we will be in tier 1 by feb 👍🏼

Fuck off being a smart arse 👍🏻

We were waiving our cocks in the air 4 weeks back that we were the first to approve a vaccine. Mid Feb is another 7 weeks off, by which point the government have had 3 months to vaccinate folk. They only need to do 5m and half the risk has gone, surely as the risk deteriorates we will move down the Tiers 

Normal might well be the summer but people wont stand for being in Tier 4 until summer

Theres no evidence that its worse, same or better

It wouldnt be a shock to discover this mutation has weakened the virus

Id be much more surprised if its gone the other way

Ideally we get some figures to show whether deaths are from the known mutation

Well so far, all the comments have been that its seems similar in virility. Well soon see in a week or two.

Not being smart I just think it’s very unrealistic and probably the most optimistic I’ve heard from anyone even from folk who don’t think it even exists. but hope im Completely wrong. 
 

people can’t really do much about it.

What’s the supposed delay in approval? I mean  given the relative speed of the pfizer approval? 

Not sure its that much longer; but there was the consideration of how to use it- two doses or a half then one. Maybe they're looking into that.

Fuck knows why they are bothering with low temp freezers 

They are sent from the factory in shippers covered in dry ice that lasts at least 10 days (30 days if the dry ice is replaced). They then last another 3 days in a normal freezer 

They came out weeks ago talking about doing 1m injections a week, they have dove 700k so far, complete bollocks by the government yet again

The CEO of the Wellcome Trust was an interesting listen this morning. The one we try and get back to.normal quicker, the longer it will take. He was confident at some point next year we'll be back to almost normal but tonrush to.open thing up too much by March would be foolhardy.

Schools and the health service the priority.

I think your science is wrong.

AZ vaccine will allow many more.

And by the way, it's the nhs doing the vaccinations and I don't think they're fucking anything up.

I think that was what AZ did

The 'delay' was on their side

Its only been with the regulator a few days

Shippers last 10 days keeping the vaccines at the required temp (at least, more if you replace the ice). Then you have at least 3 days in a normal freezer 

At least 2 weeks factory to arm without needing a special freezer

Who are the Welcome Trust? 

This CEO, how many people has he had to make redundant this year? 

?????

The Wellcome trust are the worlds leading genome research facility.

Budget is in the billions.

Best and biggest on earth.

I was there a few years ago, they had a room the size of a football pitch with about 300 dna sequencers in.

Each machine cost half a million.

That’s what I’ve heard. They delayed getting it sent as they had a load of questions to clear up about dosing. You don’t submit, then withdraw, if you find that you got the dosing wrong. That would kill it dead

As I understand it (or what I understood listening to wireless). 
 

When a vaccine is approved it is not a case of saying yes it works. You also have to specify the conditions when it is issued and the anticipated results that need to be monitored and reported on. We all know the AZ had its cock up in testing with the half dose. So the data is not as exact as it should be. That is not to say it does not work but in a number of segments where the data is incomplete the margin of error is questionable. 
The data is needed as when more vaccines are available medical professionals will need to decide that vaccine A is best for a certain patient.
