Cheers. If I go for AstraZeneca I can get it Saturday. Pfizer I’d have to wait til 4 June.

Think I’ll go Astra

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Emerging that most of those being hospitalised in Bolton are eligible to have been vaxxed, but haven't.

Without wanting to wish harm to people, one can't help but to raise a wry smile. Provided there's no legitimate reason for them not to have been jabbed yet, of course.

That's grim, but hopefully some good may come of it in terms of encouraging those still wavering to now get vaccinated.

A perfect storm of cultural issues. British Indians (the biggest diaspora in the country) have a well below average 56% vaccine uptake of those eligible apparently, according to the beeb.

I don’t think anyone should be surprised by your comment.

I don’t think you’re alone there. Someone in an authoritative healthcare position should be asking them why they have not been vaccinated.

Explain like I'm 5.

Sage are now predicting 1000 deaths a day if this Indian variant is as transmissable as they think.

But who would be dying? The vaccine has broken the chain between infection and death? Almost every single person at genuine risk of dying is vaccinated and the vaccine data proves its almost completely effective.

What am I not seeing?

Or they have been fiddling the figures in order to make it look better as they release restrictions - and with the inevitable rise due to restrictions releasing starts to show, they use the variant as a way of deflecting

And with this government's track record with the truth, is this not a reasonable view?

For arguments sake, let's say the PHE and 10s of independent research stats are accurate... Who's dying in this predicted 4th wave?

People who've turned down (or not taken up, if the nuance matters) the vaccine I guess? I've not really seen any published figures on the uptake rate amongst say 50+ folks, only really the percentage of the population - but if most of the growth there is amongst younger people then maybe there are still a decent sized rump of people vulnerable?

95% of over 50s vaccinated according to the beeb on April 22 and the ONS too if I'm interpreting right.
