totally.That's encouraging, innit? Suggests the 95%-effective number is holding up
we only came out of lockdown in June last year. And that was the severest of severe lockdowns. Its definitely not comparing like with like. And it was also pre-variant days.Dunno, but read that they're currently maxing out on their 20,000 per day now and will expand it to 30,000.
There's loads of people having to self-isolate. Hundreds of thousands apparently. That's having a huge effect on productivity generally. There was a thing on the radio where some IT firm was paying freelancers three times their normal rate just because they're so short staffed. The UK has done quite well so far, but I think this might mess them up. They may have to shake that magical money tree again.UK on just shy of 50k cases today - and that's probably a day or so before the euro final effect is due to kick in.

Personally I'm hoping it'll lead to a workers revolution of some sort. There's millions here that are making the same or less than they did 15 years ago.
I read 1.6 million being told to self isolate. Mad.
It's the telegraph but there are interesting accounts here.
Chaos of the pingdemic: bin collections halted, ferries cancelled and guests clean own hotel rooms
Manufacturing, hospitality, transport and healthcare thrown into chaos after huge numbers of staff sent into isolation by NHS Covid-19 appwww.telegraph.co.uk
If a single case at Heathrow has resulted in 120 other staff members needing to isolate you'd have to ask serious questions about the distancing procedures put in place by the management.
They seem to be in big trouble over there in terms of the case numbers.
not exactly helpful; the headline states the 5% of cases are 'fully vaccinated' but later in the article it states they're 'fully or partly vaccinated'.re the 5% of cases here being with vaccinated people - i assume they're counting people who have only received one shot of a two shot vaccine in the 'unvaccinated' camp?
cases seem to be roughly doubling there every two weeks, for the last couple of months:They seem to be in big trouble over there in terms of the case numbers.
This is obviously anecdotal, and exaggerated, but I was talking to a friend of mine over there last week, around 30 I'd say, who told me that "everyone" they know has it at the moment.cases seem to be roughly doubling there every two weeks, for the last couple of months:
jul 15th: 48.5k
jul 1st: 27.5k
jun 17th: 11k
jun 3rd: 5k
may 20th: 2.8k
It's because the messages for months now have been 'We're reopening slowly, outside is grand' which has led to thousands of mostly (but not solely) younger people breathing all over each other for hours in various parks and public spaces whilst drinking cans/pints.So, summer time, with a decent percentage of people vaccinated and we're hitting a 1000 a day?
This day last year we had 14 cases reported...
