That would be about 250 jabs then

:wink:

Holy fuck - what is wrong with these people - wanting to wait for an ā€œEnglish vaccineā€! :man_facepalming:

Just ban them from having any vaccine available until everyone else has been vaccinated-

They’re almost as bad as Covid-deniers/ anti-vaxxers :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Edited- to change the word British to English. Apologies to the non-English citizens of Britain

But thinking about it and reading this, it’s not surprising there are people who think like that these days :roll_eyes:

All elective surgery halted at SGH.

You have to wonder

I will take pretty much anything except the Chinese and Russian ones

TBF the Russian one is the same as the AZ one on account of them nicking the data

This is the elephant in the room being conveniently ignored.

Delaying what may currently be non-emergency surgery is likely to make relatively treatable simple conditions into more serious conditions needing more care / cost further down the line.

Can’t be helped now I guess :man_shrugging:t3:

Blimey, I’m on a roll:

A couple of seconds thought make the vaccination of all food chain providers a no brainer…

This ought to help a lot

Cuts recovery time by a week - as well as cutting the death rate

Plus this is immediately available for use

Ah, saw that. So it’s about saving a few hundred quid on ICU costs…

(Only jesting)

One of them is to complement dexomethazone. Lucky trump isn’t still in charge or he’d have bought up the global supply for the yanks.

It is always someone else’s fault isn’t it?

Just in Question Time or all the time you see him talking in the media?

Damn, dont have either of those for my annoyingly increasing Arthritis attacks

My dad was taken back to SGH yesterday just shy of 3 weeks since his last trip. Is there someone I could talk to about a room with my parents name on as they seem to be there a lot recently? :grimacing:

He wasn’t there long as seemed ok (probably still had a mini stroke) and sent away again. Fingers crossed he doesn’t need more medical attention.

I am so worried about both my parents needing medical input now. I don’t think the follow up for my dad has been great but I do not blame the NHS for that.

That lies solely at the government’s door. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

I hope your Dad is fine and doesn’t need to go into T’General again for a while, but I know from how they treated my Dad last year, he’ll get the best of care.
