With almost as year to make plans how has our government so massively ****** up the vaccine rollout?

    It's true though. Why would I excuse the failures of those who run our country by saying ah but someone else is just as bad?

    There is literally no justification for such a poor rollout and for having medical practitioners now scrambling around trying to gain approval to give vaccines. They've had almost a year to prepare.

    I know it may be only a small point and largely irrelevant but if they hadn't spent a week focusing on justifying cummings' behaviour it was a week they could have focused on this. They've wasted to much time

    Thing is though the rest of Europe seem to be miles behind us at the moment. If I lived in France for example I'd be using the UK as a favourable comparison

    It’s not like there giving away newspapers, like others have stated it needs handling with care, there’s logistics and storage to get right too. You just like to moan really a think ST.

    You seem to really enjoy calling me out for moaning. I know you really don't like me but is there any need for doing so rather than actually either engaging and putting forward your point of view or simply ignoring me?

    Yes, let's pile up the most vulnerable into a waiting room. Your cheese has slipped off your cracker.

    You might be a lovely bloke, dosent stop me thinking that your a moaning ******* at times.
    For what it’s worth I think to get to a point where we have been able to mass produce a vaccine to help the fight against C-19 and start vaccinating 200,000 people a day then it’s going in the right direction, I’ll reserve further judgement till the end of the month to see if they are carrying out the numbers they have promised as opposed to your method whereby you criticise before it’s had to change to really get rolled out en masse

    Matt Hancock stated this morning that he expects the average to be 200,000 per day till autumn. What else can we go on other than the current speed and the expectations of the health secretary?

    I predict that by about about 4 weeks after we’ve inoculated the first 13 million. We’ll be down to less than 50 deaths a day. So by around end of April.

    apart from the fact that they are using untested methods for doing so by spreading the 2nd dose beyond the point where the manufacturer judge to be safe. Given our Govts track record what could go wrong with that...

    A lot of essential services at hospitals do to be fair including some emergency care. Though the fault of that is firmly at the feet of the government underfunding

    My understanding is that it makes more sense to vaccinate more with one jab now, than it does to insist upon giving a second dose to those who have already had it.

    Neither you nor I know for sure which option is best.

    I believe volunteers are being sought to help the effort. Get yourself put forward and do something about it?
