I think all over 50s will be done by end of April. I doubt 7th April. Would be great though.
If only! They seem to be moving the goalposts now to getting things back to normal in May as the experts would rather go longer in this lockdown than risk the new variants causing trouble with the vaccine. They also want to be taking it extra slowly so there won’t need to be anymore lockdowns after this one."Britain could vaccinate its way out of lockdown by April 7th"
Is this supposed to be good news? That's another 2 months.
The R rate is already below 1 in lots of places, I thought the plan was to start coming out of lockdown once all the oldies had been vaccinated mid february. Or are they going to ramp up the fear again with the Mutant ninja South African strain and take us right back to the beginning once more.
Yeah totally agreeIf only! They seem to be moving the goalposts now to getting things back to normal in May as the experts would rather go longer in this lockdown than risk the new variants causing trouble with the vaccine.

So lets see what actually happens!
This lockdown is definitely getting stretched longer and longer every time there is an update.
It's going to be a bloody struggle, but I can honestly see the kids not going back until after Easter, and the shops not opening until May to make sure that we don't blow it by getting the balance of low community transmission/vaccines and opportunistic new variants wrong.If only!

I think they will now unless there are supply problems or we get snowed in.Coronavirus: Vaccine chief 'optimistic' about over-50s May target
It comes as the UK has given a first dose of a coronavirus vaccine to nearly 11.5 million people.www.bbc.co.uk
do we think they will hit this goal then?
they are saying that the UK factories are doing excellent yields now on the AZ jabs!I think they will now unless there are supply problems or we get snowed in.
I think they will, if only because the government has absolutely bugger-all to do with it and it's all down to people who actually Know How Logistics Work.Coronavirus: Vaccine chief 'optimistic' about over-50s May target

THE YIELDS ARE HIGH!!I think they will, if only because the government has absolutely bugger-all to do with it and it's all down to people who actually Know How Logistics Work.
Snow might slow us down a bit, but I reckon they'll only miss it by a week or so if that's the case.
I'm inclined to agree.I feel this is an example of careless talk costing lives at the moment
I don't dispute the result, I dispute its relevance, given the the original and b.1.1.7 variants are the ones in mass circulation and not SA. ONS estimate that 800,000 people have covid that are not the SA variant and currently, less than 200 of the SA one.
I don't think it was their intention to have this released at all. This is like the ineffective in over 65s drama all over again - some dumbass in government reads provisional data and leaps on it. Then the press leap on it as they've felt dirty for having to write such positive stories about the UK for a while.
