TalkSport just reported that a German hospital has had to dispose of tens of THOUSANDS of vaccines due to them not being kept at a low enough temperature ..

I was slighted when I mentioned my concerns weeks ago that I had doubts that the vaccines would all go smoothly - as mistakes happen ..

To be fair Zizu, I think people took issue with your suggestion that qualified nurses wouldn't be competent enough to administer the vaccines... adequate storage and transport is another issue - and has always been a concern.

Maybe I didn’t explain it well enough .. my point was always that people make mistakes... I did mention that they were understaffed / overworked ten years ago and things have gotten a lot worse over the last ten years

BREAKING: The Oxford vaccine has been approved for use here in the UK!!

https://bbc.in/37Y7o9m?fbclid=IwAR1G...i211Y9pagqqzWw

Easily stored, easily mass produced. This is extremely encouraging heading into 2021.

Great news

The UK has ordered 100 m enough to vaccinate 50m people and it is so much easier to role out as it xan be stored in a normal fridge

Denver 30-12-2020 06:15 AM

With both Vaccines almost the whole of the UK will be vaccinated last year

bots 30-12-2020 06:23 AM

there wont be uptake of the oxford vaccine until the higher immunity figure is confirmed. Someone saying it in the 90's doesn't make it so until the data has been reviewed

I actually think that people are so fed up they would take a placebo if it gave them vaccinated status. I think we should be using the Pfizer on the elderly and vulnerable and then the Oxford on the younger, less vulnerable age groups for now. Even at a lower efficacy it has to be a step in the right direction :shrug:

Things will be better by April. I'm sure if it
