My Dad was a parachute instructor during WWIIā¦he trained hundreds of cannon fodder for operation āMarket Gardenā
He never made a parachute jump himselfā¦it was an emergency.

Wow! Call me a wuss, but I donāt think I would want to be taught how to parachute by someone who had never done it themselves, emergency or not!

Even if schools are closed immediately and a harder lockdown is put in place, January is going to be an absolute shitshow for the NHS. I see absolutely no upside to delaying the inevitable.
Shut it all down. Accelerate the vaccine rollout.

Am 99% sure I heard a Govt advert on the radio this afternoon pushing for other immunizations - surely thatāll deflect resources from Covid immunizations?
My daughter is a Corporate Lawyer. She can work from home.
Her days are non stop conference & Zoom calls & wading through massive legal documents.
6 year old wont be back at school until who knows when. He needs help with the laptop let alone home schooling tasks, downloading work sheets etc.
She simply doesnāt have the time. She can do one or the other.
It is a huge problem for many more.
And she is lucky she can afford a laptop for him. Many canāt
Really not easy Shed deliver him to my ex in Salisbury she can cope being an ex teacher & he loves going plus they did all the Carer bubblecpaperwork.
But what will the new lockdown rules be? Will she be able to collect him?

Basically the twitter link had an underscore character in it (_) this is a āspecialā character to Discourse (the forum software) so had to be āescapedā (tell Discourse (the forum software) to treat it as a nomal character) by putting a backslash (\) in front of itā¦

The guidance referred to sounds to me as if it came about something like thisā¦
MPs
āAs the vaccines have only become available in the last couple of weeks, and there are possible transport issues stemming from new EU/UK border mechanisms and the fact that winter usually disrupts transport anyway, can you give us a cast iron 100% guarantee that every vaccination venue will have full stocks of the intended product at all times and under all circumstances?ā
Government
āNo, we canāt. Nobody could.ā
MPs
āSo, what is an affected station meant to do if, say, they had one vaccine available but not the original? Send people home without their second dose?ā
Government
āIt would be better to give them a dose of the available vaccine as they all work by prompting a similar response in the immune system. Technically itās not ideal, but that is our advice for the circumstances you outline should that situation arise.ā
MPs
āSo youāre telling us that you failed to get the drug companies to run compatibility tests between their products while developing them independently? And in the last few weeks you have also failed miserably to complete a comprehensive year-long trial of that yourselves, but youāre ordering all clinicians to give doses of different vaccines to people?ā
Government
āNo, weāre trying to give everyone two doses of the same drug, and weāve ordered enough surplus for that to be done.ā
MPs
āYou have blood on your hands.ā
