Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

Sort of let the cat out the bag there haven’t you? Apparently you only joined in Jan this year but are aware of Ethan leaving the forum for a while and coming back:unsure:

I guess those who guessed you are an old poster back on a new name are correct.

Let’s hope the mods find out and your banned again or we find your previous username from you had your flounce.(y)

He may have been reading long before registering :(:(
 
Well..shock of the day.
The Boy ( 20 in a couple of weeks) had a voicemail from the GP today.
He's phoning them tomorrow about getting a jab....
We must be well ahead of the game around here..

I don't think it's all that bad, I suspect these figures are distorted by a few areas and their surge testing plus cases will increase as restrictions are relaxed. Hospitalisations is the one you want to watch.

I guess so. Just feels a bit like a kick in the teeth after all the good news lately and with us being so close to being 'released' completely
 
One of those 8 areas (Hounslow) starts only about 1 1/2 miles from here. Our school, while the catchment area technically is just a few hundred meters short of it, gets a lot of traffic from there. The local area FB group is irritated that the bus isn’t suspended.

Not sure if I can generate the energy to be irritated about it. Just don’t restrict us, 1st ‘holiday’ (long weekend away) in 18 months coming up.

Can you summarise/screenshot please it's behind a paywall.

Sorry, I could see it on a twiiter link. Fundamentally it is an article in the FT claiming that German scientists have found the cause of the blood clot issue in AZ vac and they also are saying that there is an easy minor tweak that can be done to stop it. Given that there are many many millions of arms worldwide that still need jabbing, if this could be done lives will be saved not only from the issue itself but also by minimising vaccine hesitancy.

Does it say if it can be applied retrospectively, or are all of us already done hostages to our fate?
 
Had my first jab on Monday afternoon. Struggling to lift my arm yesterday, but just a tad sore today so should be all good for the weekend.

A steady stream of people in the que but everything was running like a clockwork.

It would be interesting by this point to know of those being hospitalised for Covid, what is the ratio between jabbed vs non-jabbed (and who are eligible for it but just haven't taken it up).

I believe that in the areas seeing spikes the ratio of infected is 90% not jabbed, 10% jabbed. I don't think they have stated hospitalizations but I could be wrong. Ian important point though so it would be interesting to hear.

A good chunk of those infected in one town were certainly of an age where jabs were available to them but they chose not to have them. I can't remember the figures now so I won't mention the town.

Second vaccine done today - could feel rbe relief when it was done. I’m off to go and replace by MacBook now
