I read this and was quite angry with the BBC, not for the first time, because the strap line is only tenuously correct, and even in the article it states the evidence is low. Fucking scaremongers.
I honestly can’t even be arsed clicking on the link.
Of course it didn’t originate in wuhan…and I assume thier compliant population who just witnessed it all, welded doors and all, probably buy that shit as well…for fucks sake, I’m not denying what they had a go at is about at theUN doesn’t need to be improved, but, yknow… that joint is a mess…fucking it up for everyone…
Its claimed it was around in Australia and Italy in autumn 2019, but without any credible evidence, they even have a public presentation of their success, complete with hazmat suits and beds - could look like a warm up for a really weird sex party.
Around in Australia…how ironic, they are being blamed for something that started in thier latest villainous enemies…
Whatever, joint would be better without saturated supply of your copious amounts of shit, environmental destroying products.
I mean, we are really embarrassing when it comes to our climate policy, but in reality, it’s just supply and demand. And your the ones demanding it.
Let’s start to transition to manufacturing quality products and renewable energies, irony would be in the Chinese government trying to strangle us economically that we transition to a better society…
Cheers Xi, thanks for the reminder we don’t need your crap roducts…
Ahem…
What a disgusting swine this Johnson is… scaremongering his own population without having a shred of scientific evidence… yuck… 
People really shouldn’t get into panic because of what this bastard says. He lies and makes things up for a living.
Yeah, hypothesis at best, but hard to blame the BBC when the government is running the same story.
That said, the UK Government jumped out early on the announcement that the B117 variant is more contagious, faced considerable skepticism, and that now seems to be a consensus view.
Well blame them both then 
There’s been quite a bit of jumping about and u-turns; on this current handbrake turn though, both knew before going public that the science was just not there and any statement as such would be premature. I really do think covid suits an agenda for distraction at the moment, from Brexit, austerity, climate. But it couldn’t top the US protests 
When I misspell covid spellcheck suggests Ovid 
This is also why there’s a problem with people disobeying rules. They simply don’t trust a single word he or his cohorts say. For the very same reason you can see decent people falling into the anti vaccination camp etc.
I think the last I heard (if i have it correct) was that we would have everyone with at least one shot of the vaccine by September - so if the the second shot is given within a following 12 week window, we should have all adults done by around December…?
This may change as more vaccines come onto the market. The UK is looking at introducing 24 hour vaccine services. If that goes ahead then it opens up the possibility (supply allowing) for a speedier vaccination programme.
Two days in a row now where we’ve given over 400k doses. That’s more like it. I wonder what the split is between Pfizer and AstraZeneca?
I think with the policy the UK government have taken, the rewards of the 12 week gap are almost as big as the dangers.
If the 12 week gap results in an immune escape mutation, this isn’t just fucking up things for the UK. The rest of the world is fucked as well. I won’t blame the UK government for being selfish because they are just reverting to type.
I think the likelihood of an immune escape mutation is low in a slowly mutating virus like SARS-CoV-2 (slow in comparison to seasonal flu for example) anyhow so fingers crossed this all works out and we can get to the point where we have fully protected the vulnerable.
Commence operation blame some teenagers for having a house party. Go! Go! Go!
3/4s of over 80s now been given first dose as well as 3/4s of those in care homes.
While I’m in no position to comment on the risks associated with this approach I can certainly understand the need for balance. The more people that get the first jab the better.
Where I cant comment is whether 12 weeks is actually an acceptable gap or otherwise.
really?
What a surprise.
