Looking at the Screen devices shown, they seem no different to a Bulkhead behind the driver cabin in a van? As such, every van should fail an MOT, as I can't get the correct driving position for myself with said bulkheads?

Interestingly, I was contemplating Gaia theory just the other day in relation to coronavirus.

Not the version with a conscious intelligent Earth, rather the theory of Earth's systems striving for harmony that I learned about at uni.

Perhaps we are the virus and coronavirus is actually the vaccine for us?

I'm absolutely not a covid denier however yet again I find myself questioning official figures
Apparently 207,000 people have been vaccinated in the last 24 hours. That's 143 people every minute based on the the centres being open 24 hours which they aren't

So assuming they're open 8 hours a day, you're saying 429 per minute?


https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... -final.pdf

I realise we're not at the end of January yet so not all of those sites will be operational. However, I'm just looking at numbers to see if it's feasible at all so let's ignore the mass vaccination centres to reduce the capacity for vaccinations for the moment. Assuming all the others are now up and running but can only vaccinate one person at a time, then they can meet the target you mention above as long as it takes less than 3 minutes, 17 seconds to administer each vaccination. In reality, we can hope that at least some of the sites can vaccinate more than one person at a time.

When you look at a national scale, with a population of 60 million and a health service designed to service that population under normal circumstances, the sheer number of hospitals, pharmacies, GP surgeries, etc. make 429 vaccinations per minute sound like a very unambitious target but of course supply of the vaccines and other necessary consumables are probably a bottleneck (pardon the pun).

The above won't be precise in the slightest but I only set out to show that 429 vaccinations per minute doesn't sound such a stretch of the imagination when you are vaccinating thousands of people at the same time all over the country.

If those 207,000 people were spread across the whole of the UK and not just England, then it sounds even more believable.

Here's my vaccine tracker, measuring individuals as a result of moving to a single dose arrangement, England only 174,276 reported yesterday. The rate needs to double from where we are now to cover the top 4 groups.

I had my first jab yesterday at my local surgery,very very efficiently run and my second jab is already booked.

I've never believed anything the government has announced in terms of budgets or targets, which are generally constructed to look impressive, even if unachievable.
OTOH I have greater confidence in the "bad news" figures, as they are generated by experts, not politicians.

Politicians don't like bad news, if anything I would expect reality to be worse than the figures, not better!

You would always expect things to be slower at the start then accellerate.

Vaccine availability is the limiting factor at the moment, so not much anyone can do really.

and practiced/competent vaccinators - newly 'qualified' vaccinators will surely need supervision.. you can't magic thousands of vaccinators out of nowhere in a short space of time.

No but the pool of staff who have the training necessary is very wide - nurses, doctors, pharmacists, even HCAs in some circumstances I am led to believe. Not sure that is a limiting factor at the moment but do not know for sure.

Don't trust the "experts" either as they are chosen to support the lies whilst those that don't are ignored.

Depends upon which experts you are getting your data from. Published research data is rather more detailed (i.e. informative) than the filtered announcements on TV.
I was particularly struck by the apparent paucity of data on surface-transmission, so went hunting and turned up a very useful paper from Australia a few days ago. Lo and behold, today the BBC's pet Cambridge epidemiologist mentioned the same paper - so the data is out there, but it's evidently regarded as too indigestible for "headline" presentations.

My friend lives in Cumbria and says that they are only letting one person from a household at one time in a supermarket.
He said they are checking people getting out of the same car.
Can't seem to find any helpful information.
If you go in separately with different trolleys I don't see the problem, obviously not going around together.

Edit, yes I know what you mean.
Trouble is we need different things and some things we are not sure what we want.
