Scary isn't it. Thankfully just got call from GP and I am being done tomorrow afternoon which is a relief, especially with the small one going back to school!

Van Tam doing daily briefing and saying that rates are still high and are rising again in some places, urges people not to take their foot off the brake and uses an analogy I think we can all relate to "It’s exactly like being up 3-0 in a game and thinking: ‘we can’t possibly lose this now’. But how many times have you seen the other side take it 4-3. Do not wreck this now, it is too early to relax."

been following the Swindon number. While we are 1/6 the incidence rate we were at, it's certainly not going down further.

I guess that's ok too an extent  IF the hospital admission rate continues to fall due to vaccinations

Do we know who JVT supports? It’s got to be Swindon hasn’t it? All his references relate to STFC.

We never did get that fourth at Vale Park.

Had my first volunteering shift today on the vaccination programme. Was surprisingly emotional to see all the people coming through.

Good news is that there are far more volunteers than there are available shifts, at least in London. Should be able to speed up the delivery if the vaccines are there.

Had my jab yesterday. It was a quick and simple process. Upper arm aches a bit, but other than that all good.

I like van tam. He always comes across well and I understand what he's saying. He also seems like the kind of bloke who would be good company over a pint or six.

Very impressed with the "lateral flow test by post" delivery. Only ordered yesterday afternoon. Arriving today.

As you may know, households with links to people in school/college education (incl parents/guardians ) can now take LF tests twice weekly for free. OK the accuracy isn't great, but every little helps

It made me quite emotional to see so many people volunteering when I went for my jab, even at our small health centre there was a cast of thousands!

Same here, arm pain was all I had after Saturday and its gone today. One thing was that I shattered afterwards and went to bed before 8 on Saturday night and slept for 10 hours but not sure whether that was two hard days on the bike or the vaccine!
