Re: Coronavirus
Why is everyone blaming the cake, it was just an innocent cake, in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

Re: Coronavirus
The COVID booster will be offered to:
* Health and social care staff.
* Everyone aged 50 and over.
* Carers who are over the age of 16.
* People over five whose health puts them at greater risk, this includes pregnant women.
* People over five who share a house with somebody with a weakened immune system.
In addition, the flu vaccine in England will also be offered to all adults aged 50 and over, the usual high-risk groups and now to schoolchildren up to Year 9 in secondary school.

It was a very fruity cake though. Quite a little temptress of a cake, apparently. The cake was asking for it.

Seems sensible. But it must contain the capacity to deal with Omicron.

Government PPE contract disputes could cost taxpayer £2.7bn, say MPs
MPs on the Public Accounts Committee say there were "significant failings" by the Department of Health in the handling of contracts that "put a stain" on the UK's pandemic response.
Disputes between the government and suppliers of personal protective equipment during the pandemic that didn't make the grade could cost the taxpayer £2.7bn, MPs have said.
The Public Accounts Committee accused the Department of Health and Social Care of "significant failings" in its handling of the contracts during the COVID pandemic, leaving the government with four billion unused items - many of which will be burnt.
The report also said the department took little action against potentially fraudulent suppliers - believed to account for 5% of PPE spend - and that it did not carry out due diligence over some contracts, allowing firms providing substandard equipment to get away with it.

Re: Coronavirus
There were 60 new deaths within 28 days of a positive test for coronavirus reported on 15 July 2022, and 908 people in the last 7 days. This shows an increase of 120 compared to the previous 7 days.
Boris said today that we are beating covid.

Numbers vary, thats the nature of a virus. Same with colds/flu/measles etc.

Well i suppose that depends on what you mean by beating.
Compared to two years ago, we have beaten it, but we will never eliminate it completely, at least not with current medical technology.
