    There is definitely a good 10% of pure twats out there…..let them suffer the consequences I guess the selfish t w a t s

      Amongst that will be people who've yet to have their jab but still intend to get one. For instance though all young people have been offered one their jab appointment may not have come around yet

      I think 90%+ uptake would be great and probably better than the government expected.

        Happy non-‘Freedom Day’. Here’s how Boris Johnson screwed it up for everyone. https://t.co/BrdS9K4Sai

              I wonder if the Government let this variant in just to make more people take up the vaccine quicker, look at the queues yesterday for example…..we know the vaccine works still which is very fortunate

                Science means knowledge and science is used to project multiple scenarios in advance.

                  In which case I feel there are several times where politicians have ignored "the science" and focused on the "follow" part of the phrase. Some things which could/should have been anticipated weren't - it's very unpopular to take action unless data to back you up, at times anticipatory moves were made (Portugal travel restrictions during Gamma Variant) and were criticised - and action only being taken after clear data had come to light even if that meant action only much after it was needed.

                  Too many inconsistencies to produce a catch-all statement but I feel "follow" has had emphasis during spread of Alpha and Delta Variant - though I accept that may be outcome bias as "follow" or "the science" may have been used throughout and those two are where it went wrong.

                    Thread showing how much of a fiasco PPE procurement turned out to be.

                    We have found that the UK gov paid substantially over the odds for many PPE items during the pandemic - once by as much as 226% - even when you take into consideration inflated prices caused by spiking demand. THREAD from @allthecitizens and @bylinetimes https://t.co/S1wchiE2tD

                        All the numbers are good, no deaths for 2 weeks, hospitals underwhelmed butbstill we are oppressed.
                        It really is time it stopped.

                        Analysis of the past four years, and what are the figures could tell us.

                          No. They need to stop the Delta variant spreading.

                            The original 'need' to lock down was to protect the NHS. Covid is now having a marginal impact on the NHS.

                            It is rising but it is less of a threat against people who have been vaccinated, and it is supressed by the vaccine from passing. If we work as you say we will be locked down for ever, as 1 variant after another comes along. Soon it will be winter and they'll be telling us the weather is to bad to open up.
                            Covid is now the 31st highest cause of death in Wales. No deaths for 2 weeks.it is becoming stupid.
