Anyone who knows anything of the absolute ****ing shambles the seasonal flu vaccine rollout has been cannot possibly be optimistic about a fast widescale rollout of a Covid vaccine. The vulnerable elderly people who NORMALLY get a flu vaccine every year have been struggling to get one this year. The mass vaccination centres are a mess, the appointment system is a shambles, people have been getting their letters telling them the day/time they're booked for several days after they were supposed to have it...

And that's for a fraction of the number who will be getting the Covid vaccine.

I honestly think 6 months is the timeframe we're looking at to get over-60's and the vulnerable vaccinated. Getting everyone (who wants it) actually vaccinated is going to be a year or more, no matter what they say or what targets they set.
