Especially as there is such stiff opposition.
The Star Leisure centre and pentwyn leisure centre are being set up as mass vaccination centres in cardiff, according to the council.
I’m surprised they haven’t set up a massive tent on Castle Steet yet.
I was hoping for a drive through here....just get the jab as you pass through. Bluetit would love this....
Hope there’s a few more places around the city, splott and pentwyn, a bit Easterly isn’t it?
That's the hospitality quarter, not medical
Over 1,900 new cases today with 400 plus in Blaenau Gwent and RCT and 300 plus in Cardiff and Swansea. I think that might be a highest yet for Wales, but the figure for tests of nearly 20,000 was as the ighest I've seen.

I'll have a word..,....
What's the difference between a push bike and a motor vehicle? Apart from a few tonne and speed.
You haven’t seen the new set-up, have you? Take a look. I’d be interested in your thoughts.
Being hit by a fast ridden push bike can do a person serious damage.
I once witnessed a woman hit by a cyclist on Station road/Bridge road near the school. He hit her full tilt and she was taken to hospital, broken arm split head and unconscious. It is not to be laughed at.
and I have seen cyclists ignoring pedestrian crossings. I saw one guy who fell (was pushed?) off his bike whilst weaving through people on a pelicon crossing, who jumped up and demanded to know why the had got in his way.
I gave my particulars to the police who attended and some time later his solicitor had the cheek to write to me asking if I'd make a statement to the effect that she was partly to blame by moving in front of him as he tried to pass her, completely ignoring the fact that she (and the cyclist) was on the pavement. And of course there was no insurance for her to claim off, as there should be!
The problem is that some cyclist ruin it for others (as in all things) because they think the rules of the road only apply to everyone else and not them.
I will, I rarely go into the city centre, although I have to buy a few presents so I'll take a look when I go in. Bluetit can't even spy from the runner at the moment. #prayforbluetit
In the correct order now

Good to see footage on tv of the first person having the vaccine. Feels like weve turned a corner. Her name escapes me.
The second person to receive it was apparently called William Shakespeare. It had to be (or not) didnt it?
That is the question
After all of the high figures in recent days, just 780 new cases in Wales this time with the number of tests not being as low as you might expect. RCT was the only area above 200 cases and then only by 4.

This is a page I check every day - and you can see the very high rates on your side of the Bristol Channel: https://www.covidlive.co.uk/
There is an interesting quirk of the numbers if you compare Wales with the whole of the UK.
Wales has about 1 21st of the total population of the UK.
Proportionally we have had more coronavirus cases than we "should" have, about 10,000 more than if we had had the average rate for the UK as a whole.
However, we have had less deaths than you would expect compared to the UK population - about 350 less.
No idea if this is a real effect or just a quirk of the numbers, or differences in the way the data has been collected etc.
Welsh death figures do not include people who tested positive in Powys but died in english hospitals. Don't know how much difference their inclusion might make though!
The daily numbers bounce around a lot for some reason, looking at the charts seem to give a better impression of what is happening, and there is no slow down apparent on there yet.
One theory is that Tuesday's figures are always low due to a weekend lag. 595 cases on the 24th, 667 cases on the 1st and now 780 cases today.
667 cases last week shot up to 1,480 the following day, 1,473 on the Thursday, 1,471 on Friday eventually going over 2,000 by the end of the week. I don't have anything to say it will be the case but it's possible that the highest figures on the Tuesday in three weeks will see us way above 2,000 by the Sunday if climb replicates last week.
Again, I don't fully understand what is so hard about it. If you need to be indoors ensure there is good ventilation by opening a window and allowing air-flow (do it for 5-10 minutes once an hour if can't bear otherwise), wear a mask, wash your hands and social distance. If cases keep rising we're going to end up in greater restrictions which no one wants.
I wonder how many people are cancelling their Christmas plans even though the relaxation (currently) still exists? It's a horrible decision which has to be made but hopefully everyone is going to restrict themselves as much as possible to reduce how nasty January could be.
*the graphic shown also encourages people to self-isolate for 10 days before.It seems THE topic of the morning on media is what to do over Christmas.Here’s a good graphic from @SimpleCovid. Maintaining physical distance, spending as much time outside and ensuring good flow of fresh air to replace the stale air indoors: https://twitter.com/hughes_eilir/sta...52276689776641
Yesterday was just a blip in what is an upward trend in Wales, the highest figure I've seen for new cases today (2,238) with 638 in Blaenau Gwent, 411 in both Cardiff and RCT and 382 in Swansea - we'd be heading towards another lockdown within days I reckon if it wasn't for the desire for a as normal as possible Christmas.

I wonder if the recent uplift in positive cases is due to universities carrying out end of term tests before students return home?
Good news about the Oxford vaccine.

A change to self isolation rules in Wales from tomorrow.
