The success of failure of the vaccine effort has little to do with whether there is (or isn’t) complicity between Government, the media and some parts of the scientific community who rush out glitzy press releases ahead of peer review.

It’s good that data has become available to comfort the scientific communities of some other countries. And the vindication that elements of the UK media have been on their knees for over a period of weeks now.

Notably the recommendations for the Pfizer vaccine are unchanged and 12 weeks remains an “up to” figure. I’m sure they’ll be watching closely as the devolved nations have clearly diverged on their policies with England lagging behind on second doses at 13%, NI and Scotland at around 25% and Wales over 60% of those issued yesterday. All following the same science too.
