Re: Coronavirus
 
A thought on the deployment of the vaccine.

It appears to be that it's going to be deployed to the most vulnerable first, I wonder if it should be deployed on a geographic basis to those areas hit hardest first.

A high risk person in Cornwall or the Isle of Wight has a lower chance of catching the virus than most others in the U.K. yet they appear to be deemed to get the vaccine first before a medium risk person in say Bradford,Leeds, Hull etc.

This was the list they published in September and from what l hear that is the list they will use.

A journo asked pretty much the same thing. answer: it doesn't matter what tier you're in the vulnerable will receive the vaccine first.

Just been displayed briefly on Sky News

I wonder how this plays out for the travel industry? In a not to impossible scenario many airlines/holiday companies will want proof of vaccination as a condition of sale/carriage. If the mass population does not receive the vaccine until mid-late next year then it piles on the pressure for an industry already struggling

Yep, that's the one that was shown on sky. Well found

EDIT: Whilst the risk of mortality increases with age as stated it's now well known there's a multitude of factors including economic & race that leads to an increased risk of mortality. Using just age is wrong.

Looks like there's a good few million in the queue ahead of me and the OH. We should know by then if there are undetected side sffects or metabolic changes.

Her Majesty and Prince Philly should get it first and we can await results. Will it drive them bonkers? Will we notice ? ;)

We booked ours through the NHS Access App - will be getting it on the 10th December (I have to wait 7 days after my 2nd vaccine trial injection).

I really hope there's some kind of certification once vaccinated. You can be almost certain that this will be needed for travel and work in some places. I have to carry certification for Hepatitis vaccination status to visit some customers in the course of my work for example.

Can vegans talk it?


IIRC vaccines use chicken eggs to grow it.


Plus all those idiots who say it for a chip to track us, yet they walk around with a mobile phone in their pocket, and some say even if you turn it off it is still on in the background and that is they way "agencies" turn it back on.

Veganism is just a made up fad, they can eat the same stuff as normal people they just choose not to.
In regard to corona virus it's not bothered by your diet.
