No it’s like downing half a pint, or something.

Good quote PM! But the first does strategy runs to July is not strictly true. Anybody who got vaccinated in Jan/Feb/March will get the 2nd dose in March/April/May. Everybody in the high risk category will have had two doses by end of April. The rest of the UK adult population will have at least one vaccine by July but I suspect the large majority will have had 2. The main problem is the high % who will refuse it and the new variants that may reduce the effectiveness of the vaccines. But the best you can do now is get everybody who wants one a dose as quickly as possible. In my area in London, some people under 65 with no underlying conditions have been offered it recently as they have extra doses available each day. It’s either use it or lose it. |

Feeling a lot more positive this week with the reports that healthcare cases down by 90% since vaccination, provides evidence that vaccination is our effective way of getting out of this pandemic phase (which we knew anyway but its good to see it in numbers). Also good to see that if the supply holds through we will have a good portion of the population and the most vulnerable vaccinated by summer.
You would imagine/hope that deaths will come right down and we can be in a position to take more calculated risks in terms of opening up even if the number of cases is still in the hundreds (which I think will be hard to get down below that until everyone the vast majority is vaccinated). If can meet up with people in the garden by May and go the gym again I'd be delighted with that outcome.

Good point. I presume it's the same principle for people who put a dash of blackcurrant in their vaccine, asking for BSM.

Added cases and deaths to the dashboard, and share links for facebook, twitter, and email: e.g. rolling seven day average of daily deaths in January-February |

If one dose gives you 70% efficacy and the 2nd dose brings you up to 95% efficacy, then surely, using basic maths, it makes more sense to stretch out the time, to approved limits, to get the 1st dose in to more people.
If 2 x people get one dose each, combined there is 70% efficacy. If 1 person gets 2 x doses and the other gets none, combined there is 47.5% efficacy. I assume this is the reason for the UK's approach, or am I missing something obvious?

Will they? I hope they will, but it feels very optimistic and to go on dates, based on this hope and will anyway. It might work out, like the gamble with the vaccine, but I certainly wouldn't be optimistic. It is very hard to shake the feeling that they want the NHS fail, while at the same time, with the help of compliant media propaganda, making themselves appear to have done everything they can. I really hope this isn't going to be the case.

No, this is indeed the reason I've always felt it makes sense from this standpoint, but I am not an expert and am not qualified to judge if there is a risk of unintended consequences British medical scientists are though and despite me finding the British government revolting, I do trust their scientific community as a broad institution |

Approving the vaccine and the delayed first dose technique for roll out was a decision that was guided by science though The lifting of restrictions gamble - and it is a gamble - is a purely political decision

The NHS are saying it's fine but NPHET are advising under no circumstances let covid know you've a dash of purple in it. Just drink a full pint like any proper man would and there is nothing to worry about. With the L rate theory, we will be out of lockdown my Mid April. But snowflakes will ruin it for everyone. Is BSM a snowflake?

londons transport system is dead. people who are going to work are not doing so in central london unless they are in non-office related workplace e.g. construction. virtually all office staff are still wfh. this was oxford circus last night at 9pm. in normal times the 3rd busiest tube station in london and one of the busiest in the world.
