If your argument is that IT and greater surveillance is part of the future ... Well you are in good company.. That is inevitable. I do see personal ID cards with the citizen number, all vaccines, health status , maybe tax status,as being the future... And you know what ? I don't see that as a...

..and so would any rational person. Which is why some of us are extremely cautious about extending the second jab date beyond the manufacturers suggested deadline.

Less blantantly untrue as utterly unproven. It is a hope that less severe infections, will help reduce the pool of infection. There is now very strong evidence that any of the vaccines greatly reduces the burden on hospitals. Z might refect on the difference in probabilities those three...

The EU approved the Pfizer in December, It approved the AZ within a fortnight of getting the documentation and request from AZ in January. Both France and Germany were in an alliance with AZ at the same time as the UK, but the EU wanted solidarity in August. Alk this is on the web. The EU funded...

But France couldn't do that,or else the UKs rollout would have been halved , If France and Germany had done so, the UKs rollout would be 1/3 . If France ,Germany , Italy and Spain had dine so, the UK rollout would be 1/5 . That is the stark reality. It was not a question of money, It is...

The risk is small only because the behaviour has been modified, and curtailed. Of course I would like to do other things .. like ebike the 12Kms away , with my wife and have the prizewinning Fish and chips in the seaside restaurant while looking back at my village. Whereas at present ,I go...

You have misread .. Our all Ireland situation would have been immeasurably better had there been an All Ireland approach. Unfortunately the DUP with its slavish adherence to Westminster would not allow it. By June of last year, we were approaching NZ levels ...not there but close

As a feast of misinformation .. this takes some beating. Note it is only the UK ..and Perhaps Isreal, which gave immunity to producers. There are no guarantees in life .. except death. What there are are probabilities.

Which part of "Ireland ignored EMA" is true?. I have on multiple times described the process, and how seriously the EMA approched this . I even quoted chapter and verse, at each stage. AZ knows exactly who they are dealing with. They signed a contract with the EU to supply 27 countries at a...

Very useful graphics on that site.

Now France is reporting 20% confidence to take up the Oxford vaccine. What’s the point of supplying them?.. well since they only have a 10% chance of getting it, that is good news all around. Less disappointed people.

1. Since the UK never sent any AZ to the EU , stopping shipments would be very easy. Any AZ used in Europe was EU produced 2. There is an enthusiasm for the AZ and Pfizer here in Ireland. 3. The schedule for last week was for the medically vulnerable 16 + s to get the AZ , and that was halted...

Source of the 15M..unused doses . And Woosh of course you are correct, it includes Everything . Including any Pfizer and Moderna which is contracted to hold the second dose in storage until adminstered... BMJ 2021; 372 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.n730 (Published 16 March. Unused vaccines...

The hypocrisy is not in accepting a cooked meal, already prepared, . The hypocrisy is in snaffling all the beef patties in the supermarket for your restaurant , and then complaining that they are off the menu when you visit another restaurant. The problem with the vaccines is that there is a...

Math or Maths is not his bag... At least Z taught the stuff

Where is this figure of 15 M coming from?. The EU concluded a deal with AZ for 400M at a phased delivery over the 8 months until August 2021. Deliveries were expected commencing End of January ..and we know how that went. The cupboard was bare , So your source please.

Woosh a few corrections.. AZ promised and committed to 100% in the EU. ,with due dates etc last August. They then admitted in January that they could at best deliver 40% and with revised delivery dates, Then subsequently have failed to deliver and if they are hitting 30% of schedule its a good...

"The EU is in desperate need of our help at this time and the U.K. should do what it always does, put aside personal dislike and help those in need.. ". Since the UK has exported no vaccine, but instead has imported around half its current usage from the EU, that seems a strange statement...

Woosh, my understanding , which may be defective is that the PB or moderna process is much more complex and is more like building nano Lego . and that the AZ is more traditional ,.. more like brewing followed by filtration this means that the AZ process is more scalable , as well as producing...

yes, I had not factored in the infrastructure. In fairness it would not be much better here, although ICU availability has been under less pressure of late.
