They're going to close nurseries again aren't they.... FFS.

All schools again, I'd assume.

WFH with child/children is the pits!!! My daughter's at home today and still won't sod off if I'm on Teams or the phone. I'd forgotten how annoying she can be

Back to dressing up in tweed, to go grouse shooting with your mates it is then!

A shiny penny that whatever he announces takes effect tomorrow.

Nurseries open!

Well, at least the journeys into work will be fun.

So Twatfink thinks that if everything goes well they'd have done 1 jab to everyone in the first 4 vaccination priority groups by mid-feb. I've counted and that's 11 million people. So as they've done about 1 million already that's 10 million in 6 weeks, or over 1.5 million a week.

So just another 30ish weeks to do the rest (assuming no supply chain issues)? That's about October time.

What about all those who refuse it because COVID is fake and the injection is just to put nanobots in your bloodstream for Government monitoring? That's gotta be about 30% of the population. Brings us back to June time.

So, straw poll, does Year R count as Early Years or not? It’s part of infant school (so, closed, right?), but it’s also part of EYFS (so, open, right?).

Reception is primary. We had a letter last night confirming it was early years therefore unaffected. A revision was issued today yo say it has been put into primary

Yeah it's not going to happen is it?

Let's not forget that's just 1 jab. At a max of 12weeks between jabs they'll need to start 2nd jabs on those first 4 groups within a couple of weeks of finishing the first jabs...

Hands up who thinks this is going to go to total ratshit?

I should have clarified earlier that I meant something major.

Basically back to full lockdown with *checks watch* four hours notice. Nice.

The law doesn't take effect till Wednesday. It can't. The parliamentary counsel have to write and publish it first.

[DeskJockey]

Just thinking about my hasty calculation, it felt off.

Population is 66.65 million, assume 11 million have been vaccinated by week 6. Assume that 20% (is that high?) of the remaining 55.65 million can't or won't be vaccinated, that's 44.52 million to vaccinate. At a rate of 1.3 million/week (based on 10 million done in six weeks), that's 34 weeks, taking us to week 40 - first week in October.

If the scheme accelerates to 1.5m/week that means early September instead.

So, I wasn't that far off, I suppose. Does the maths and assumptions stack up?

[Simon]

You're forgetting they're not doing the kids.

[mr_jon]

Aren't the two vaccine manufacturers saying 45 days for 2nd dose at the absolute outside?
