Nobody hates the Welsh more than the Welsh, some people will take any chance to complain about the "gravy train" in Cardiff Bay, but remain remarkably silent on the Westminster government handing out contract to their matesOriginally Posted by Former Labour leader
Bit of a concern that new cases rose to over six hundred, but there were more tests than what has become the norm and the rate of infection was still less than one in ten. Vaccines figure is up to 716,000 which I think means that there were a higher than usual amount done yesterday, while twenty five deaths is in line with the downward trend of this week.

I think there was a bit of catching up with test results, as the 600 odd were spread over a few days. I find it more useful to look at the graph of cases as the daily figure bounces around a lot.
Just short of 750,000 now.
Rate per 100,000 is 99.
Look, you lot.....you spend your time swanning around Wales (or at least very localised parts of it) and harping on about the rate of vaccinations and that you haven't been seen to yet (Ooh er missus). On the other hand, I had a video Skype call on Thursday from a German friend of mine who is 67 next birthday. Having parked all his teeth in a receptacle of some description he gave me a very gummy call and stated that a jab is not yet on the horizon for him.
Bask in the only thing that seems to have gone right to some degree in recent times, I say!
It's all downhill after this.
Is 'bask' your word of the week?
Try Basque insteadIs 'bask' your word of the week?
What?
I was reading the newspapers just now and it seems the statisticians predict that hosptalisations will halve in the next month. That cannot be bad!!! That is UK wide, not just Wales.
RCT doing teachers this weekend if they teach SEN kids.
Great news if I could influence one thing about vaccinations it would be around schools .
I can see at first hand how tough things are becoming for young children , there natural growth and learning instincts are being blunted from education through to natural social interactions , making friends , the joy of playing , and sporting activities .
Bang on there....no team sport for almost a year will have some impact
Heard lots of cancellations in splott today, maybe the weather putting the oldies off? Random people getting a call like my neighbour who is 59.....
Down at Splott now, lots getting vaccinated this evening by the look of it.
Another set of good figures for Wales;-

I'm not sure if it pertains to those in Wales but anyone who is 65 and over can book their own appointment right now on the NHS website. My friend told me about it this morning and I went online and booked an appointment tomorrow morning!
Not heard anything to that effect in Wales, I thought we were supposed to wait until they got in touch with us?
No my mate has had hid done today at the Star centre Tremorfa,he just phoned on Thursday had an appointment today he is 62.
the phone number is02921 841234
Have they opened the Star up just as a vaccine centre? I'm sure it was all closed up previously.No my mate has had hid done today at the Star centre Tremorfa,he just phoned on Thursday had an appointment today he is 62.

I thought the same until this morning. The notifications are being sent out this week and next but you can book via this page (in England at least):

There's no online solution for Wales yet only processes to ask them to contact you (if you are in the top 4 groups and haven't had an appointment).
Not according to some of the ITK people on here.
I have now got my appointment, next Wednesday in Pentwyn, but had a very surreal conversation to get it.
I called the number advised here and after 20 minutes of hearing, "You are in a queue, time to an answer is 9 seconds" I spoke to someone.
I gave my name and asked him about getting the jab as I'm over 70 and the WG had said everyone over 70 had been offered one.
He asked me if I had received a letter, email or text. When I told him no he said, "Well where did you get this number from?" like I'd hacked it or something.
The he asked me my date of birth. He couldn't find me so asked for my address.
Then he asked me my date of birth. He still couldn't find me so asked me to confirm my post code.
Then he asked me my date of birth. Then he asked me my surname and said he had no one of that name registered. I told him I had 4 brothers and a sister all waiting for a jab.
Then he asked me my date of birth. He asked me for my sister's details and I gave them to him. (She is almost 83) He said he had no record of her.
Then he asked me my date of birth. Then he asked me for the details of one of my brothers. I gave him them. (That brother is 74) He said he had no record of him.
Then he asked me my date of birth. The he asked me to spell my name.
Then he found me. Magic!!
I got the impression he kept asking me my date of birth because he didn't believe my age and thought I'd slip up and change the dates.
I can't wait to find out what they ask me next wednesday.
