Just booked in for a test. Felt under the weather the last few days but no obvious COVID symptoms. Woke up this morning with a pretty bad cough and a tightness in my chest that i dont usually have. Hopefully all is good.

The missus’ grandad had his letter sent to the wrong address (not one he’s ever loved at either) in Scotland also. Still hasn’t had a letter yet, 75 yo

D’you know, I never knew of the link between Serco and the Tories until reading that and seeing the surname.

Rule of thumb, if a large contract was given out during the pandemic, the company involved has connection to the tories.

FTFY. This is literally their reason for existing, it didn’t start with the pandemic, they just couldn’t be arsed to hide it as much.

Go and have a look how much stock in private healthcare all those Tories with very strong opinions on how the NHS should be funded have.

Just to be clear, he’s under 65 and wasn’t asked to shield earlier?

You don’t need the letter, any of the things apply so over 65 is fine.

Didn’t notice you say Scotland though as Philsoraptor mentioned.

Is there a Scottish alternative?

Missed he was in Scotland, my bad. From what they were saying for both Eng and Scot on the radio earlier there should be a way to let them know if you think you’ve been missed. They were saying they can ask to be done at a GP as well but not sure if that’s just England.

He initially called when his wife (74) had received the letter and was told he had to wait for the letter. Then he rang up those higher up who admitted they had sent the letter to the wrong address, and to wait for one to be sent to the correct place. Don't know what the latest with him is but last we heard he still hadn't been able to make an appointment.

This seems to explain what we were discussing yesterday around perceived priority changes


1.7million more people will be told to shield in major change in England

The number of people told to shield in England will almost double thanks to a computer model - as the time period for shielding is extended by a month to March 31

TORY MPs have written to the PM demanding a swift end to lockdown. Here weird backbencher Denys Finch Hatton explains how we should be throwing caution to the wind.

Saw something that said they’d told local areas to exercise judgement and bring in people not included on the list that they thought were vulnerable, but nowhere did so this expansion was to rectify that a bit.

To answer my own Q about vaccine plans, just came across this. Frustrating that we can’t see supply rates but understand why.
