They have and it’s well underway. I know there were some supply setbacks as uk manufacturing sites were not ready.

They announced today they would start injecting the Astra Zeneca one on Monday. 5 wasted days. And the programme they have at the moment is, as others have pointed out, so slow that it’ll take the guts of a year to get anywhere.

I don't think that a slow start is necessarily a problem as long as they can scale up quickly. There will be teething problems and you will want to identify and correct those in a controlled way.

Yeah I ‘d love that as this program cannot be completed soon enough.

However, If i were a govt minister telling people to work on and turn up for vaccines on a bank holiday/double bank holiday and at weekends you’d be giving me short shrift no doubt and people wouldn’t turn up.

The major difference is that The AZ cold chain is much easier than is the Pfizer jab where the vials need to be stored at -80c. So normal fridges full of the az vaccine can go in he back to trucks and get out to care homes and gp surgeries etc in a way they couldn’t previously.

When Portsmouth was in zone 4 and Chichester zone 2, their residents could have travelled into Chichester via dozens of different roads. It's impossible to police that.

That should be policed at ALL times.

We have walls, we've just never shut the gates.

It'll take six months to vaccinate all of those if we hit 2m vaccinations a week

I am expecting to see the figures to jump next week. I think that the data will not be logged as effectively over Christmas and New Year, much like we see over the weekends.

I predict that’s your starter for 10 announcement. Expect further delays.

No way I’m sending my little one back next week, she can stay at home with us until both of our kids can go back to school

I think that will prove to be a correct prediction.

Pretty much all of Essex is in the exception area where primary schools are not opening (except for key worker and vulnerable children).

Boris just now : schools are safe. It's just the mixing of households that happens in schools that is the problem.

I laughed out loud when he said that. The whole press conference was a litany of gonad*s.

He's on a roll. His commons speech earlier will be used as a textbook example of gaslighting for future generations.
