    I might be reading it wrong but isn't that a peak after two doses but with waning immunity drops to 36.1% for AZ and 46.7% for Pfizer.

    Starmer's got a huge Union Flag behind him giving his response and going on about patriotic duty. Victory now certain.

    Singers corner closed for Derby game!

    The club really need to be pushing back against this and demanding some explanation. If necessary have a word with the local media and get them to run pieces embarrassing whoever is making these desicons. Hopefully there will come a point when we can sell out the stadium and if we can't use...

    Singers corner closed for Derby game!

    Over the top response to say the least. All things like this does is whip the supporters up into a frenzy increasing the chance of trouble. Just put proper crowd management in place that happens at every single other ground in the county.

    That's a Times journalist, don't think he discovered Omicron. But he answers the question in his follow up tweets, there are potential issues around the number of tests being carried out. The figures we really need are hospitalisations and deaths and there is a lag in obtaining those so caution...

    There was similar the other day. Modelling was done for various scenarios as so much is unknown with the variant but the media all went with the worse case scenario.

    Its a mess. I've no idea why I could go online and make an appointment for a weeks time, pre-pandemic, but now I can't go online and book a phone appointment, or even book one for later this week if I speak to someone at the surgery. If you phone up and they've got no appointments left today...

    My surgery has 8 doctors and 2 nurses! Also 2 of my 3 covid jabs have been weekends so nice bit of overtime for the doctors. But really its just another thing where covid has highlighted how the system isn't really fit for purpose. Thinks like phone & video appointments should have been an...

    Think you're mixing up two sets of figures. The ones you see on the news every day are the 'deaths within 28 days of a positive test' so will include some people who didn't die of covid but with it while excluding some who died of covid but more than 28 days after their test. There's then the...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Pretty sure they've done 1 stand open for at least one game this season already. From looking on their forum and social media it seems the regulars are largely people who travel from London / High Wycombe. Was always a tough ask to expect them to travel week in week out, you've got no chance...

    You can see why rugby don't segregate supporters, it would be too embarrassing for the home team!

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Why do they set these ridiculous targets. Its like everything having to be world beating. They know they can do 500K a day so why not say we'll get everyone done by mid-january and give yourself a chance?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Capacity and infrastructure is one thing, although it would need to be in place ready to open tomorrow morning which seems short notice. Getting a million plus people a day to turn up and get jabbed is an entirely different proposition.

    To be fair to the government this is the problem. That data isn't there at the moment and of course to get a decent amount of data to analyse they need a lot more people infected with the variant. The time of the year isn't helping as they are clearly trying to avoid putting more restrictions...
