My mum has had her letter for the Jab which is good so they’re clearly getting through the 60-70’s in bury

also had a letter saying she needs a pacemaker fitted so hospitals are maybe starting to gear up again but assume possibly that’s classed as an essential op rather than elective?  She’s adamant she’s not having it as of yesterday as says there’s nowt wrong with her. As she called me my brothers name and said she needed to send her dad a birthday card next week. He’s been dead 35 years 🙄

Yep that’s non-elective mate

Wish you well with your mum. Sounds like she’s entering the territory that my Dad did. Was reading his Psych reports the other week that my Mum dug out. Scary what a consultant writes down on paper as an assessment. Glad now that I didn’t read them at the time and just treated him as the daft old bugger that was my Dad

Interesting read from Guy Verh

https://guyverhofstadt.medium.com/two-contracts-lots-of-questions-and-not-nearly-enough-vaccines-cf1c2380cf29

"So in effect the EU has helped pre-fund the production of vaccines that the UK only has to pay for afterwards"

Whatever the truth may be behind that piece, it is really difficult to take anything he trumpets seriously, given his record.

Bitchy.

I got told today that it's possible to register and tip up at the Etihad as and when they have vaccines going to waste. No matter you're age, no matter whether you have any underlying conditions.

The person who told me that knows someone who falls into the above category and has already had their jab.

Has anyone else heard that?

I see Charles has been to visit Phil the Greek in hospital, what a fucking insult to all those have have had loved ones, including kids, die in hospital whilst they weren't allowed to be with them.

Not sure about that, as in, I doubt he's on a ward with several others 

No doubt in an exclusive suite away from anyone else, regardless of covid

The other halves nan got put in a room on her own before she died of it allowing her auntie to go see her

Mrs casino says its quite possible as the whole thing has gone to pot

How are you supposed to register

Next door neighbours c70 had theirs this week. Both same address and same gp for 30 years. Both called to,different vaccine centres. One was 40 mins drive away other local. He had to wait an hour and 40 minutes past his appointment time sat in the car waiting. No explanation given. 
 

few of their friends also have experienced problems and are saying it’s an absolute shit show up here.

Don't people in care homes have private rooms? I won't even try to estimate how many minions & security were inside the hospital during the visit.

Probably for the best. You'll only annoy yourself.

I know I'd get annoyed.

Fair point but whether PP has covid or not Id have thought his setup would be nothing like a care home 

In any case it's not really surprising, i bet BJ had enough visitors when he had it

Etihad is less than 2 miles from me. Not heard anything about that and not seen anything on local social media

I am often on call for a funeral director to collect the deceased from either Bolton General, care homes or,  on occasion,  private houses.  Nobody ever stands at the front door refusing me entry "because of covid" but welcome me in with my face mask and rubber gloves.  All the staff also wear face masks too so all no different than walking past then in a supermarket. 

My mum had a fall a couple of weeks ago and broke her femur. She's currently in Wilfred Geere House on Highfield Rd, Farnworth,  a home I've visited on numerous occasions on collections.  Am I allowed in to see her?  Am I bollocks!

It stinks Micky! Mind you I'm not surprised, obviously as ever covid wouldn't dare infringe on the lives of the rich, famous & empowered. 

Lizards can't get corona anyway 

I'm guessing if Charles has been visiting then Philip has also had the Queen visiting but obviously not seen. Wouldn't surprise me that he's Eol and not got long left.
