When are such cretins going to wake up to understand that we are at war, that we are on the same side?

Aye

Ive stated a few times that i think theres a few not covered themselves in glory, probably civil servants as much as politicians

But theres no way the politicians want doctors and nurses at risk

They might not be very good, up for debate, but theyre not deliberately leaving them short

Of course not, but she helps Covid-19 patients every day, direct contact. Plenty of co-workers are off either with it or symptoms. Those self isolating are tested and if negative then they are back to work. So far she has no symptoms but unless I am missing something you can spread it well before then.

We are told testing is key then surely those looking after positive (or likely positive such as care home workers) cases should be tested regularly?

Positives?

The Uk's first vaccine trial took place. (Elisa Graneto) no zombies recorded as of 9.10

B and Q have reopened, meaning husbands up and down the country now have to think creatively why they can't do DIY jobs around the house.

A reporter who went missing in Wuhan, has reappeared..He deffo wasn't detained... 

Virus testing has got to a point where essential workers can now get tested... Doris aged 64 can now get tested and all she has to do is travel 24 miles!

And there is talk that schools may return around the beginning of June Phased, if things continue.. Teachers up and down the country rejoice. In unrelated news.. wine sales have just risen...

Deaths compared to this time last week is pretty level, which although 763 deaths is grim, it's pointing towards light at the end of the tunnel. 

I can't claim to know exactly what it all means, but this seems positive:

Ps. How do I embed a tweet? Sometimes it does it itself but most of the time it's just a link.

I just copied and pasted your link and it's embedded

Maybe your choosing paste as plain text?

It only works for me on mobile for some reason and I didn’t understand a word of that tweet.

I was clicking the link button and then pasting the URL in that way.

I've just pasted the link straight into the post instead and that seems to have sorted it.

Nutshell?

THe corona of the virus latches on using a protein based hook it opens up like a little foot and grabs on.., the antibody part of the vaccine needs a way of making it so that the host cells repel the hooks, basically it can't latch on. (That was one way they were approaching a vaccine, not certain if this is that way or not) ..

I'm assuming there is also to normal way of getting the body to produce white blood cells that can kill it, before the virus gets in there...

Pretty sure that is the way all these viruses do it, clever little bastards

Thanks.

Plenty of people in the replies were suggesting (or maybe just hoping?) it could be something of a gamechanger?

Yeah. got a cracking rendering of the virus clamping on if anyone is interested..  Cleaning industry is going crazy trying to figure out how best to kill it on the outside... but if it can't latch on, it can't replicate itself..
