Scaremongering for a headline though.
It is pretty irresponsible of Sky to report the news that way, based on a family comment. The story infers that it's only part of the story.
In what way? The regions have autonomy so there are some that are doing anyone over 18 years and old and others doing anyone over 30.Is Italy not needlessly slowing itself down because of 1 in 100,000 blood clot bullshit?
Heathrow is in Hounslow, which is one of the hotspots for the Indian variant, so I think that’s where they’re sending the extra capacity.

It isn't, it's in Hillingdon albeit you travel to it via Hounslow on the tubeHeathrow is in Hounslow, which is one of the hotspots for the Indian variant, so I think that’s where they’re sending the extra capacity.
Cities are going to be facing more demand as they have a younger population. I'm not really sure how they've factored that into the way the vaccines are allocated to CCGs. I've a feeling they've just done it on this sort if basisThink capacity by airports has always been higher.
There are currently 0 appointments in Southampton or Portsmouth what's crazy.
Portsmouth the closest place with more than 1 appointment is Reading !
Great that the uptake is high. But think how many people wont be bothered to book as cant get one near home.
How is it 'a load of scare tactic shit'?
The only people getting worked up by the coverage of it are those who want to shout 'OMG THE MEDIA ARE SAYING WE'RE GOING TO BE LOCKED DOWN FOREVER!!!!!!' when literally no one is saying that.
As far as I know most of the vaccines ordered are Pfizer or Moderna.I mean are they making under x age take Pfizer
'Dr Helen Wall, senior responsible officer for the Covid vaccine programme in Bolton, tells BBC Radio 4's Today programme patients in hospital in the area are not as sick as previous patients with Covid-19 and "vaccines seem to be working".
She says there are "significant numbers of 30 and 40-year-olds" going into hospital in Bolton'...

No they’ve not.Its odd as they still only have vaccinated 18% with two doses - the UK is at 36% so they seem to have just given up vulnerable first approach

'Significant Numbers'
Really are bedwetting arent they
This is current vs scenarios for the road map. We appear to be tracking under the scenarios but we keep being told might have to move away from full reopening !
Think we can say the modellers have got this once again wrong
Not really. Just that people still don’t understand how to read models, i assume that’s from this paper: https://assets.publishing.service.g...7_Unlocking_roadmap_scenarios_for_England.pdf
It’s pretty clear that both the vaccine efficacy and take up are better than modelled.
I'd suggest they know a lot better than you what significant numbers means in relation to their capacity. If they've got from 0-2 admissions a day to 6+ that is a significant uplift.
But shows they are not following data as they are not reviewing it regular. Considering saga members have been calling for slowing down of lockdown yet we are ahead of there best case scenario is a joke

Its not though in the grand scheme of things is it? Shall we stay locked down until its 0?
End of the day, all results coming out of these extra hospital admissions and cases are that those jabbed twice are in the very very small minority, and even then they arent as ill as past waves leading to them not being in hospital as long
Similar for those jabbed once but of course, higher in the admissions and intervention needed.
The Jabs are working
Eh? It’s a paper released before we knew any of this stuff, it’s not a living document you update though they’ll probably have live models they use.
Sorry this is just more anti-intellectual expert bashing. You’re arguing the toss about a model that’s from what I can tell on that graph 95% accurate and was built on best guess data at the time *which you have to do*.
The point is that those jabbed twice are a minority in the general population (42% of adults) in Bolton's case. Therefore given Bolton has a population of 317k registered patients (probably higher actual population) then there are a significant number of at risk people still around.Its not though in the grand scheme of things is it?

A 300% increase during a pandemic where exponentials often apply is significant.
Depends how you want to spin it for headlines I guess.
Numbers and stats can be manipulated either way.
Did you even read his post? The chart comes from a model in a paper that used certain assumptions about efficacy and vaccine take up which are clearly laid out. We are way ahead of those assumptions so obviously its not applicable.The model for reopening was set out and we have to hit stages in it. That was set in the model and there has been nothing from HMG to show they are using live data. They set the models and that is it.
The models have been wrong from the start, Imperials Neil Ferguson has never predicted anything right.
Have a closer look at the data its not 95%. So hardly basing, But once again shows how wrong the models are.
