phart Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Just now, bonzo said: Lockdown lite by the end of the week? I think that will depend on hospital cases. We have something like 96% prevalence on antibodies in the population due to vaccination and infection, if that translates to less severe outcomes we might be alright, all depends on what % of cases go to hospitlisation. Without vaccines or high infection prevalence it would be pretty scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folk who are ready to go home but social services are struggling to get care packages in place quickly enough. It's not a new problem, but getting worse because of the pandemic. Brexit is probably having an impact as well on the number of care workers that are available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanderark14 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Here we go again. I can't book my booster jab because I had the 1st vaccine in England and 2nd in Scotland.Ā My surgery entirely make an exception even though they are the only medical facility who have both records on file. My only choice is a walk in centre 2 hours away with a 6 hour queue. YaaaayĀ Well done boris you useless waste of space, get everyone booster jabbed without the actual facilities go do it.Ā Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 "3117 new cases today. 110 confirmed as Omicron.
