I can't see anything else. they surely don't have capacity to double up second dose and new first dose

Capacity is expanding all the time - new centres are opening and the existing ones are extending hours. I talked a bit earlier in this thread about volunteering for St John Ambulance - I've just got through the process and they've recruited and trained 30,000 volunteers who are becoming deployable around now - that's a mixture of vaccinators and stewards/patient care roles.

There will be a capacity issue at some point but I suspect the more likely things to slow down at this point are a) vaccine availability once we've used up our non-AZ/Oxford supplies and b) the sheer logistics of getting appointments booked etc.

blimey,  that was an early test last March, did you have to pay for it?

The Canary Islands were overrun by mid-March, and tests were widely available, cost around 60 euros, although I think you can get one for free if you get a referral from the centro de salud (doctors)

I assume news vaxs will drop off a cliff somewhat come March and April when all those who have had start having another.
I dont think it will with the release of further vaccines that will be available soon. ones that are easier to store and 1 dose. plus once the main tiers are vaccinated that will be the end of the high death rate until a possible autumn dose for variants

That's capacity to deliver, the supply side needs to be there as well, which is another positive aspect of the UK approach and the NHS.  Due to having such well designed test systems in place (I read that the NHS holds over 400k people on file to run clinical trials, which means they get the necessary number of volunteers quickly), several suppliers used the UK for trials.  That's also tied to the UK placing orders for 6 times the amount of vaccine needed and supporting those companies in setting up manufacture and distribution infrastructure ahead of time.

You have Novavax and Johnson & Johnson both going through the regulators now I think.  That will add considerable supply for 1st doses in March/April, meaning you can, in theory, keep the second doses going while not impacting the new vaccination numbers.

Mainly a cough, high temperature and an extraordinary need to sleep, a little bit like how you feel after reading one of JBZ’s posts.

Mega lolz.  I would be interested to hear how one might feel after giving a cursory glance to one of Bamboo's missives.

Ohh, so now you're using Lieutenant Slaw Tor as an avenue to continue to have a dig at me, ha! How queer of you to do so. Especially when my "missive" on this thread was regarding great empathy at hearing Bathford's unfortunate news. Many others had shown equal sorrow also.

I'm not sure what is most sad really...your continued lack of ability to show any empathy towards anyone or your obsession with me; so much so, you're trying to claim that I am the Sgt him/herself?! Paranoia setting in JBZ ey?! Losing control of the situation, because you have no idea? You are old enough to know better.

That's very poor form considering how much you are careful with your words and your links to the Suits? I forget though, I'm the one having the mental breakdown obviously Hmmm

Inability to apologize. Inability to show empathy. Noted.

You've incredibly poor judgement for a person who claims to be part of the law (or likes to appear so) though.

How wrong you are on your continued insistence. Quite bizarre, I've no idea why you chose the easy option?! It's made you look a little foolish "my friend"  Soapy Tit Wank

Apparently the UK is soon to receive it's order of the Moderna vaccines. More crepuscular moments appearing as we edge closer back to something that resembles a normal way of life.

Wow that's FHs favourite one liner usually! Cheesy Your writing style and replies have become incredibly unoriginal Mr. JBZzz...

A "lawyer" effectively lost for words  Eek

Anyway, this is the Coronavirus thread and most use this purely to talk about the "rona". Let's keep it on track ey Sgt? Wink
