    25% of EFL

    Yeah my mates just text me the same. Full breakdown: 41% of players in EFL still not fully vaccinated, league reveals. *25% “do not intend to get vaccine” *16% are “set to get the jab” *59% are double vaccinated *?% booster

    Fair play mate. Enjoy it !!!! Quickest way to Downing St is probably tube to Westminster then 7-8 minute walk

    The recent modelling on the new variant is all guesswork. There just isn’t the data. As I mentioned yesterday, even when there was decent data on delta variant the modellers best case scenarios were way off (overstated) My issue isn’t the modellers as such, as long as they caveat their work...

    Yeah, agree with the lag, higher hospitalisations are coming. What I’m querying though is firstly, apparently, there is protection from severe illness and hospitalisation even from two jabs as well as natural immunity protection. Vaccines alone just aren’t stopping transmission as we can see...

    Think he made some comment like that but again all this needs context which we aren’t getting Are patients unvaccinated ? - Sure I read recently that London has only 60% of population with any vaccination. God knows about booster ! What’s the turnaround time for patients - pretty sure I’ve...

    I agree. Current restrictions/measures are a minor inconvenience in the grand scheme of things and are no issue at all. Id also want everyone getting a booster or at least those over say 40 who’s vaccine immunity is waning. I do agree with Nick on one point. I think some of the language being...

    Thats a fair point. I was commenting purely on covid inpatients in England currently at around 6.5k and questioning whether/why hospitalisations should increase exponentially unless omicron swerves natural and vaccine immunity (something we still don’t know…if it does we really are in the shit)

    I know they won’t. Never going to happen. It’s not the release of virus that I’ve got an issue with, assuming it was accidental. It was the cover up and then the obstruction of the investigation since which may have hampered our global ability to stop/treat the disease.

    Their response since the outbreak indicates it was a lab leak (why delay, obstruct and minimise inspection ?!). They should be on the hook for world reparations !!! Disgraceful

    Yeah, I keep an eye on PHE Covid inpatients (England only). Currently 6.5k This will be the main figure to keep an eye out for. If (and it’s still an if) we follow SA trend, admissions are staying in for shorter periods due to milder illness which will hopefully help control the steepness of the...

    Decent testing numbers (1.3m) but doesn’t explain jump. No doubt numbers will be above 100k. Just need to hope it doesn’t transmit into severe illness/hospitalisations On a brighter note, assuming it’s less severe, a lot of the country will secure natural immunity Edit - 656k boosters yesterday !

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Really ?! It’s kind of what everyone’s been saying, it appears almost instinctive to lie, even when the evidence is stark. I’m honestly starting to worry about his mental state

    He’s a good data analyser but is missing the point. This should be about how many end up seriously ill/in hospital. It’s pretty much established that waning double jab will not stop you getting it but will still hopefully provide some decent protection from severe illness (booster even more so)...

    I agree with pretty much all your posts recently Duffer but I still think there’s too many unknowns to suggest that without restrictions/slowing the spread it will break the nhs. The forecasts at the moment aren’t really worth the paper their written on as we really don’t have much of a clue...

    I don’t think anyone’s keeping their fingers crossed for it Nick. This is a new shitstorm for everyone to varying degrees I do agree about the need for government and media to be transparent and factual though. Like when hospitalisations were mentioned yesterday’s between 18-85 years...

    Rightly there won’t be much sympathy for Johnson but at his age, nearly dying from Covid, two newborns and a never ending pandemic. Rather him than me !

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I think that’s a bit unfair Wingy. JCVI originally suggested 6 month gap so call up gradual. There are also constraints around vaccines administration; GPs have been clearing backlog of lockdown cases in recent months, volunteers may not have been available, 15 mins wait post Pfizer jabs (mean...

    They’re struggling to get lateral flow tests out to people due to the high demand....guessing it’s all the anti vax ravers (BSB ?!) stocking up
