Re: Coronavirus
Good News. The Oxford vaccine should be approved within days: https://www.itv.com/news/2021-12-27/...ross-the-globe
This is much easier to administer and is by the far the one we have the most orders for. It's predicted we'll dramatically escalate the number of vaccines as a result.
Bad News though is hospital admission are set to exceed the April peak: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...ak-first-wave/
What's also worrying about that is that last time the lockdown had been in place weeks whereas in different parts of the country it has not been that long if at all. January is going to be brutal.

Great news on the Oxford vaccine. Reading the article it suggests that it could be rolled out from 4th January if approved.

https://www.ons.gov.uk/file?uri=%2fp...020174305.xlsx (tabs 1g and 1h).
Possibly more areas going into Tier 4, infection and hospitalisation numbers rising, and stats show that year 7 to 11 pupils have the highest % of the population testing positive.

Michael Gove has said this morning that ministers are still discussing whether pupils in England should return to school next week.
Children sitting GCSEs and A-levels in the summer are due to go back on 4 January, as are primary school pupils, with others returning a week later.
School trade unions and some scientists are calling for a longer delay to reduce the spread of the new variant of coronavirus.
But Gove said the government was confident lessons could begin in the first week of January.
"We are talking to teachers and head teachers in order to make sure we can deliver effectively. But we all know that there are trade-offs.
"As a country we have decided - and I think this is the right thing to do - that we prioritise children returning to school."
Mr Gove also said he had not ruled out the whole of England being moved into the toughest tier four restrictions.

That seems counter-intuitive...

Re: Coronavirus
Gove has said elsewhere that some years at secondary might be online for the first week at least. Sage advising all schools to close for a month.
We know what happens when Government delay implementing Sage advice.

Your knowledge of epidemiology and virology appears to being hindered by the tin-foil cap you are wearing.

Rather surprisingly, those tin foil hats seem quite good at keeping the virus at bay

I feel sure they are tracking new strains and just waiting for the right political moment to release knowledge of them to cover up balls ups like putting London in the wrong tier and allowing the virus to run rampant.

Not to encourage tin foil hat wearing there’s also the fact Covid has been running rife in schools, which weren’t closed in fake lockdown.

When the kids go back next week and that turns out to be a colossal mistake, expect word of a new new strain running rampant through kids and not being the governments fault for sending them back to school

Quote from Politico: LONDON — U.K. government scientists have told Boris Johnson in direct terms that he has to keep secondary schools closed in January — and potentially order a stricter national lockdown than the one he implemented in November — to prevent coronavirus infections from spiraling out of control.
The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies, the body which advises ministers on the COVID pandemic, delivered the stark new advice at a meeting last week, an adviser familiar with their conclusions said.
Led by the government's Chief Scientific Adviser Patrick Vallance, SAGE agreed that, because of the prevalence of a new strain of the virus identified in the U.K. in the autumn, the reproduction rate — known as R — would surge further above 1 in January even if the prime minister implements another November-style national lockdown in the New Year.

Re: Coronavirus
So basically, they are all doom & gloom, as usual.
