snippet .. Researchers at the University of Oxford have begun enrolling subjects in a phase 2/3 clinical trial of AstraZeneca-partnered COVID-19 vaccine AZD1222. The next stage of the program, which follows a 1,000-subject phase 1, is set to enroll 10,260 people in the U.K. to generate results to support the first shipments to customers in September.

I suspect the public, who are fickle, haven't noticed him so much (but he's not been a negative distraction) as they have some concerns over Boris right now.

It's behind the scenes partly because the largely Conservative press are focused elsewhere. Just because it's not on the front page of the Telegraph doesn't mean it's not taking place. Anyway, don't want to take this thread off track.

When will the results be available?
To assess whether the vaccine works to protect from COVID-19, the statisticians in our team will compare the number of infections in the control group with the number of infections in the vaccinated group. For this purpose, it is necessary for a small number of study participants to develop COVID-19. How quickly we reach the numbers required will depend on the levels of virus transmission in the community. If transmission remains high, we may get enough data in a couple of months to see if the vaccine works, but if transmission levels drop, this could take up to 6 months. Recruitment of those who have a higher chance of being exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus is being prioritised, such as frontline healthcare workers, frontline support staff and public-facing key workers, in an effort to capture the efficacy data as quickly as possible.

he's been smart, and knows when to keep his mouth shut and lay low.
When the crisis is over he will return to tell how he would have done it so much better.

I think his next steps depend very much on how the return to normality goes. If things go badly, then the country will naturally want an inquisition. If they go well then he will focus on other areas.

Good luck - I wanted to, but nearest are Sheffield and Hull, and you have to live within a certain distance of each (I don't... ).

Re: Coronavirus
Its pretty much normal for the popularity of whoever is in power to fall (and rise again) over their time in power.
Since the election is not until 2024, its really of little significance.

As it is I am within the postcode area. It doesn't mean I'll be picked, just that I've applied.
Due to the urgency I assume I'll get a phone call sometime this coming week.

Re: Coronavirus
Lockdown effects could be causing hayfever
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-new...kdown-22118071
Quote:
The lack of traffic in the UK due to lockdown may be good news for the environment - but it’s bad news for allergy sufferers, and an expert has explained why.
Hay fever sufferers noticing their allergies seem worse than usual this year are correct, the expert told ITV’s Good Morning Britain.
Dr Hilary Jones has explained a dry month and a lack of pollution from cars during the UK’s coronavirus lockdown has contributed to a particularly severe hay fever season, the Daily Express reports.
Itchy eyes and sneezing have become a fresh hazard for Brits out enjoying the sunshine while keeping a two-metre distance.

I can vouch for this, mine has been dreadful the last 2/3 weeks, often overpowering my tablets.

Re: Coronavirus
Schuessler Combination H keeps my Hayfever at bay. Has done for 30 years+. No idea whether they help keep CV away.
