asitis Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 The fact that the government have communication issues in respect of trust throughout the population, should come as no surprise to them. The last countless years have been bluster, obfuscation and aggression towards anyone who dare question or criticise the corridors of power. Ironic really, that at the point they do need to be open with the population to gain their compliance, they find themselves the subject of ridicule and question ! The Dr Glover issue is a case in point. Good lesson here Howie, you reap what you sow !! 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thats just me, you just want everything right now with no thinking. A couple maybe but we’ve already got 5 of 6 trays in reserve plus 1 more due this week, we don’t need that many in reserve. We are well behind everyone else in UK & CI and need to ramp up. Ashie can’t say we don’t need to do anything as we are in great position then lock us down at same time 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is quite possibly the most sensible and on-point thing I've seen from you in recent weeks.

TheTeapot Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Where has the 6 trays thing come from? It doesn't add up looking at the calendar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be in people arms Because it is a two dose vaccine with a designed time frame, and for the reasons given in my post. The UK messing about with the dosage schedule is not based on the evidence and a sign of desperation. We should not follow them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re giving the 2 doses in 21 days but still no need to keep 5 trays in reserve which will be 6 by the time we start next vaccinations. we should also start getting Oxford vaccine shortly as CI have received theirs, are we just going to build them up in reserve as well?

It is not supported by the data, because the trial didn't look for it. It is a gamble, a gamble they feel that they have to take. I hope it pays off, but it is straight up dodgy to conduct a mass trial (for that is what it is) on your population. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
