The Chief Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 3 minutes ago, Happier diner said: Meanwhile, rumour has it that we might move to level 2.501. This is of course subject to data not dates. Level 2.501 sees a significant change in that not only will family be able to visit as well as home owners but this level would see pet hamsters able to travel too. i'd heard it was Gerbil's only as Ashy doesn't like that smug look hamsters give him when they get their wheel spinning really fast. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Banker expects IOMG to do about that God only knows. The words " pissing in the wind" come to mind here... Edited June 11, 2021 by P.K.

Apple Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) I get the view that we have painted ourselves into a corner now, putting too much emphasis on the dates rather than data and I am not sure on what the Governments current strategy is now. Maybe next weeks Tynwald should throw some light on where we are and where we are now headed in the short term. People saying 'we don't know' is not an option any more.

Someone really needs to be asking why they closed and if that decision impacted on our supply. If we missed out on deliveries through closing then that is a disgrace. It is bad enough already that they closed down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they put the end of June back and use the lack of vaccinations as a reason, after 2 weeks of doing nothing while the rest of Britain have ramped things up, would we as a population not be right to be absolutely disgusted? Especially those in hospitality and tourism l? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Wright Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Just now, On the inside said: Meanwhile Gibraltar was fully vaccinated well over one month ago. Same supplier. The system is. 1. the UK don’t have everything they’ve ordered delivered and in warehouses. It comes through from the manufacturers weekly and in differing amounts. 2. There is then an allocation, pro rata, per head, to England and each of the devolved nations, and the Crown Dependencies and the Overseas Territories. 3. The health authorities in the various jurisdictions then decide what to draw down, when and arrange transport. 4. They can leave stock in store in UK if they don’t want it immediately or don’t have storage. It’s not lost, they can draw from the allocation later. 5. Gibraltar was a special case as 20,000 Spanish resident workers stream over the border to work, every day. They are everything from financial services, nurses, cleaners, etc. Spain was slow off the starting grid vaccination wise. Now, why we didn’t fill the last fortnight with brought forward second doses or first doses is a peculiarly Manx thing. The justifications don’t hold water. I suspect they’ve just held off drawing down to avoid accusations of huge stockpiles and a cockup. At least we start again on Monday and the rest of 18+ who want to register for vaccination are now being invited. One of the reasons first timers may not have been slotted in is because they’re mainly under 40 and going to get pfizer or moderna rather than Astra Zeneca. We aren’t told what the mix of stock held is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 GIB is over 100% vaccinated because they've been vacinating the Spanish who cross the border each day to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
