Sorry, I forgot to mention that since getting a 5G phone for Christmas, I have had regular consultation with the Lizards.
 
REF ABOVE: Breaking News: Dr Liam Fox (Conservative MP) has just asked this question of the PM in Questions reference dropping the bureaucracy!!!
Wont surprise you to learn then that amongst the modules I had to rattle through today...so that ultimately I can stick needles into adults was......Resuscitation in newborn babies less than 1 day old

Once you’re through it all let us know just how long it’s taken and how much they could honestly drop to speed things safely up?

Any training that isn’t focussed on delivering the vaccine during a time of national emergency is totally unnecessary., god knows who’s justifying it.

I had a chat with a St John’s medic/first aider who is going to be helping out and he didn’t mention any of this palaver, surprised they haven’t developed a Combi Pen type device, might cost a little bit morbut huge saving on time and staffing costs.

St John Ambulance volunteers & employees already do a lot of this stuff (e.g. resuscitation, safeguarding, data protection etc) as part of their routine training anyway so probably have pre-existing certification that is acceptable as an alternative to doing fresh training. My son & wife are both SJA volunteers -she is a youth leader whose first aid quals have lapsed this year, but he is emergency ambulance crew qualified and recently revalidated to be able to do Covid related shifts for the NHS.
 
Read a report on the BBC about a nurse in Wales who has contracted the virus after receiving the vaccination and is complaining about the vaccine being ineffective. Whilst it's sad that she has caught thevirus, let's put that case into perspective. One case where the jab doesn't appeared to have worked out of 1.5 million administered seems to me to be a pretty good return considering not every jab gives 100% immunity.

No doubt the BBC/Ch4/Sky will be trawling around the nation to try to find other cases so they can call the vaccination programme a failure.

The press are twats - it's their job to be.
Always were, always will be.
Pretty much anyone with sand in their toes here will tell you that.

The beeb did report, albeit rather soto voce, at lunchtime today that the UK has already vaccinated more people than the the rest of Europe (or EU?) put together. No doubt that won't stop them complaining that it's all going wrong and is too slow........
 

Well Betty Windsor and Phil the Greek have been jabbed up.
I don't think the powers that be or the royal family medics would have allowed that to happen and put the pair of them at even a minor risk if any of the tin foil brigade anti-vax stories were even remotely true.

But then how many of the other royals who aren’t at risk will have to wait in line? I’m firmly of the opinion they’ll all receive it...On the quiet before us erks...

Trying to keep them off being ticked off your spreadsheet.

The vaccine had never had the time to be effective did it?
 
The Vaccine doesn’t stop you getting it anyway, just stops you becoming very ill.

I see they have dropped the radicalisation training from the mandatory stuff, only 20 modules to get through now.

Currently still working my way through each and every vaccine administered in the uk. I would say I’ve done and assessed about 28 modules with a good 15 + to go...

They have no idea if it does or doesn't stop you being infectious yet. The body response to the vaccine would take time to build up the anti bodies and T cells that would react to the antibodies. It is not a couple of days, but a couple of weeks to do so. One would still be open to catching the virus and be sypmtomatic in that time.
 
I now have my #2 booked for the 17th Feb. For you injection wimps, I forgot to mention. It's an intra-muscular so you might need some paracetamol for day two and three. I didn't but I'm so old that I'm not sure what is new pain or new...

It’s going to take a good few months for any meaningful data to come out of this vaccine programme, a lower viral load does suggest less transmission and lesser impact, however, it doesn’t mean no transmission and no impact.

For me, as soon as this becomes no more dangerous than the flu we move to normality and live with it, that nice bloke from the gubbernment said all the vulnerable will be done by the middle of Feb so hopefully we should be able to relax a little by half term.

I've been practicing the 'relaxing' over the weekend:
