TerryFuchwit Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 1 hour ago, Roger Mexico said: They would have removed their own stuff, but delapidations would be complicated by dispute over what was due to their use and what was caused by problems with the building as a whole (and that would further be complicated by dispute between the DoI who own it and DBC who were then running it). That's speculation. I think the point here is some silly insinuation that the DOI are fitting it out for B and M. (Who no doubt will be fitting it out to their own corporate specification as most branded chain stores would) There is no evidence of that at all. And no one is privy to any settlement the landlord and former tenant may have came to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southernman Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Looks like they have moved on to the 75-80s with about 20% of over 80s still to go. Have 20% declined the vaccination or are they housebound and harder to reach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s to book in 75-80 but the wait may be 2 weeks or so, some have declined, some are Ramsey whiners not wanting to travel & some are booked in next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banker Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) Seems the evidence in now more in favour of longer time between doses, wonder if Ashie will change it here ? Think there was a few on here slagging UK off over this decision https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-uk-vindicated-over-brave-decision-to-delay-second-vaccine-dose-who-official-says-12211550 Edited February 7, 2021 by Banker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems there's some extra capacity floating around currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is IOM starting the next cohort from 75+, why not 70+ like UK? I posed the question earlier in the thread how does IOM DHSC know if they have received the correct allocation of vaccines. Is this a reason why we have the age differential, because haven't received own proper allocation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanShimmin Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) The UK are purely doing the single dose/delayed second dose because of the gravity of the situation they are in. We are in the position to follow the manufacturers guidance with second doses as prescribed. We've seen issues with the effectiveness of a single dose among the elderly. Let's allow the grown ups to do their job. Edited February 7, 2021 by AlanShimmin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Well , I’m turning it down so no jab for me. Many others I know are of the same view. Better to get Covid and get natural immunity than risk something little is know about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By open do you mean pubs with no alcohol? Nobody can tell what will happen in 8 days, never mind 8 weeks. Based on BoJos prior performances in this pandemic we're better to do things our own way.

They are simply several weeks ahead of us, so the UK has reached Groups we'll be doing around Easter. Also, according to the DHSC 'Dashboard', there are no more first doses planned to be administered until 15th February. Looks like its all been going so well, that Ashie has given everyone a week off! We must be the only place in the World to stall the vaccination programme, in this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/quayle-visits-airport-vaccination-hub/ HQ visiting the vaccination centre on Saturday. Didn't know they were doing it at weekends. Does anyone know how many they did? Seems to be lots of senior nursing staff around to show him the way. Overtime?
