Vaccinate people going in and out of care homes then the people in care homes don’t need it.
Or is it a case of the vaccine means you won’t get ill but could still transmit it?
Vaccinate people going in and out of care homes then the people in care homes don’t need it.Indonesia are vaccinating "working adults" first before the elderly. Makes sense.

Doesn't this in part come down to companies having sufficient staffing levels rather than running everything on the minimum possible to save money? Obviously if half your workforce is off there's a problem but most businesses should be able to cope with a certain level of staff being off. What happens if you take two weeks holiday? Assume the company doesn't collapse!The thing is in small businesses, who does my work while I am off for 2 weeks? I can understand the position of small companies to be fair.
I felt a bit rough the other week, went and got a test on a Friday afternoon and was back in on the Monday morning once it was negative.
Have been saying this for ages, it's really not as simple as "stay at home" for everybody. The same for self employed people.
Yeah I read about that, I did think whether it would be best tp vaccinate those with the most lines of transmission first, ie school kids, students and working adults (who can't work from home).Indonesia are vaccinating "working adults" first before the elderly. Makes sense.
I’d clearly forgotten the sheer horror of home schooling

That’s very decent of you, thanks but we will cope, tbh it’s as much about me not having the patience, Mum copes much better so I tend to melt away whenever I can.Depending on your child’s age I am happy to share what I make. Same goes for any secondary parents here.

She’s 9 and a right ‘goody 2 shoes’ at school who always does well and gets glowing reports, but it’s obviously a different kettle of fish having to listen to us.
One thing about home schooling though, it should open a lot of people’s eyes to the very difficult job you guys do, hats off to you.
Heard someone on the radio the other day talking about how smallpox was irradiated. There was a number of reasons such as money being made available for vaccination programs, various improvements to the vaccine etc. but a key point was switching the vaccination priority from the most vulnerable to the most likely to spread it. So there is some merit to switching at some point to vaccinating the most vulnerable to vaccinating people most likely to spread it. However, I suspect now isn’t the time with the NHS expected to be overrun in the next three weeks. Vaccinating the most vulnerable at this moment in time is possibly the more sensible approach.Indonesia are vaccinating "working adults" first before the elderly. Makes sense.
That's my concern in a general sense - suddenly the oldies become the risk to the rest of the population!Or is it a case of the vaccine means you won’t get ill but could still transmit it?
We’ve just been told we are to work from home for all shifts now except for critical issues (hardware related) and if the kids are doing your head in at home.
On call so have to drive over if it's hardware?
Cunts panic buying again.
Yeah, noticed. Was at Costco in Derby this morning. Two trollies of toilet roll I kept seeing. They’re supposed to limit it, but people just individually buy it and meet up at the car.
I don't know what it is about bog roll that makes it such a prime candidate for panic buying.
There's just a lot of weirdos in this world unfortunately ! (Also I did see some psychology behind it, it’s a large item so gets cleared off shelves quicker leading to more panic....I’m still working through my 120 rolls from first lockdown so no panic here !)
Hehe yeah got that last night.
Once again Asda seems fine, is it just a certain type of supermarket that attracts these floofs?
It's part of your regular shop . I guess.Also, how come Tesco can deliver beers to me but the smaller pubs and shops who were doing it can't?

Is it about the journey involved as much as anything ,be that your own or a delivery?Right but there's little logic in a restaurant not being allowed to sell a bottle of beer while a shop can sell a 24 pack
