I don't know where they were going but the Indian govt have requested that those AZ manufactured over there are not sent overseas I think.
Where AZ would have distributed the surplus of agreed production.elswhere.
Rogue sub-co tractor?

My lads primary school have just announced they won’t be opening due to lack of staff. 1 hour notice effectively. The government could have this wrapped up over a week ago.

My daughters school the same just waiting on my sons to do the same, I am glad I am off work sick. They knew this was coming and should have sorted it a while back

Scotland lockdown - no football ? It will be disappointing if England has to stop - the population need something to cling to

Just something like that where you rock up and get injected and go. 24 hours a day.

What if you go and have a reaction to the vaccine it is probably the waiting after and the admin will be shambolic

I wouldn't be surprised if despite ordering 100 million doses of the vaccine somebody forgot to order the syringes to deliver it

Right but in our case a break would benefit the injury problems.

Couple of weeks ago I'd have said no chance of football stopping. Still think its unlikely but with reports of PL players having rule breaking parties over Christmas and New Year they've made themselves a target to be made an example of.

We will see the players partying in Dubai by next week if they shut down. Stop all air travel and anyone caught trying to sneak off on private jets gets a spell in prison.

There was a detailed plan, think it was on the NHS site somewhere, for centres pretty much like that. Turn up, queue and get your jab. You had to book, seem to recall there was supposed to be a national booking system, and select a date within your priority group but that was pretty much the plan as far as I could tell.

It had timings down to the second to the point where it had those administering the vaccines working in teams of two so that no time was wasted between patients while PPE was changed. Literally medic A does the first person then when its the next persons turn medic B steps in while medic A changes their PPE for their next vaccination.

The timings were listed down to the second. Even detailed things like having a separate queue for those with issues that could cause a slow down, mobility issues for example.

Not sure about Cov but in Birmingham there was supposed to be mass vaccination centres at the NEC, airport, Edgbaston, Villa Park, Black Country Museum and Millennium Point but nothing has been said about those for weeks.

That was pretty much how it was for my dad. Appointments were every 4 mins and then they sat down and waited 15 mins to see if there was any reaction, if no, off you go. He said it was very efficient and also painless. Didn't even feel the needle go in.

this is the bit that’s grinding my gears. If it doesn’t replicate last spring Then it isn’t a lockdown. Stay at home unless you want to play golf or meet a friend in the park

I’ve become a statistic, been isolating because I’d been in contact with a plague carrier. Had myself a test yesterday 11.30am as I’d lost my sense of taste&smell.
The Covid Stasi have been bombarding me with texts & emails since lunchtime. Positive, another stint of isolation for me.

Absolutely, stop people coming in to the country. Police it properly and let's actually deal with it.

What's stopping people coming into the country going to do? The variant's already here.

Unless it's going to be a NZ-style total travel ban with mandatory, government-enforced quarantines for all exceptions (dream on) then it won't do much. That ship has long since sailed.

Will it not stop possible new variants coming in?

Yes it should be NZ style. Get some proper control.
