If you are counting first doses, NI are bottom, if you are counting vaccinated as being both doses then Wales are bottom.  It is only if you count both first and second dose figures that Scotland are bottom, which makes no sense at all.

 

You're wasting your time. He wants Scotland to fail at everything. It's a common trait amongst the unionist cretins.

Hey, WO. Just reaching out. The vast majority - possibly 99% - of your posts on this thread seem to be on the theme of criticising or mocking people with a different take on things from yourself. While understandable during uncertain times like these, it's possibly not the healthiest way to spend your precious waking hours. Hope everything's okay with you.

 

I treat about 6 or 7 posters' contributions on this thread with the contempt that they deserve. The fact that I had you on ignore from April to November or thereabouts should tell you that I'm not too fussed about you 'reaching out' again, thanks. 😊

There’s a wank in your username and you don’t have to look too hard

Around one in 80 people in private households in England had Covid in the week to 6 February, according to estimates from the Office for National Statistics out today.

That's a lower proportion than the week before - suggesting the levels of infection are going down.

In Wales, around one in 85 people are estimated to have had Covid in the same week, while the figure is one in 75 in Northern Ireland.

Meanwhile, the estimate for Scotland is one in 150 people - showing that Scotland's infection levels are lower than the rest of the UK.

 

The above report would suggest the Scotland should be first to ease lockdown restrictions. It seems that some posters expect further caution and to be led by the UK government.  However, with Scotland planning to restart pre-school/nurseries and open schools for P1-3 in 10 days time, I'd suggest that Scotland is leading the way.

As at 8:30am on Thursday 11 February:

  • 1,048,747 people have received the first dose of the Covid vaccination and 13,195 have received their second dose

Latest progress on first doses for the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) priority groups as at 8:30am on Thursday 11 February:

  • 29,978 care home residents (99.9% of residents in older adult care homes and 94% of residents in all care homes)
  • 40,712 care home staff (90% of staff in older adult care homes and 78% of staff in all care homes)
  • 242,518 people aged 80 or over living in the community (97%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately
  • 278,175 frontline health and social care workers exceeding the initial target of 230,000 staff provided by Health Boards.
  • 165,242 people aged 75-79 living in the community (87%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately
  • 152,352 people aged 70-74 living in the community (54%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately.  

75-79 now at 92% - 5% increase on yesterday

70-74 now at 64% - 10% increase on yesterday.

 

So still on track to get a v.high %age of first dose vaccinated in the key cohort groups with 4 days to go.

 

As at 8:30am on Friday 12 February:

  • 1,113,625 people have received the first dose of the Covid vaccination and 13,566 have received their second dose
  • 30,027 care home residents (exceeding the initial target for residents in older adult care homes and 94% of residents in all care homes)
  • 40,791 care home staff (91% of staff in older adult care homes and 78% of staff in all care homes)
  • 244,374 people aged 80 or over living in the community (98%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately
  • 279,718 frontline health and social care workers exceeding the initial target of 230,000 staff provided by Health Boards.
  • 175,425 people aged 75-79 living in the community (92%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately
  • 178,543 people aged 70-74 living in the community (64%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately.

All 4 nations are doing great in their own way.

 

Our take up levels of getting first doses into arms when you get to the key cohort target date (and a few days beyond) has been exceptional.

There is no road map for Scotland as she will wait for the UK one on the 22nd then will critique it, criticise it and find a way to adapt something similar but tweaked to inject more caution.  So predictable.

 

Next she will want to say she wants furlough extended knowing it won’t be, why? Simply to create yet another division and grievance with the UK government.  She knows the social and economic damage that’s being done but the opportunity to stoke grievance is just to great.  
 

Another example, she talked about elimination and a zero Covid policy yet this is not being pursued seriously but any other major European counties and she knows with the interconnected nature of the Uk and Europe it is not a realistic approach . Even the WHO don’t advocate that approach for Europe.  So of course it’s the one she advocates as again it creates a division with the UK.  
 

It’s as tiresome as it is predictable and watch the next few weeks.  That will be her playbook.  Even Wales are talking about opening up not our Nicola . 

 

I sussed her game out ages ago.

 

She's a very devious, manipulative politician.

Do they have a workplace issue - factory or somesuch - that might have triggered the spike? That's awfy high. Same in Clackmannanshire. Care homes? 

The spike is in the neighbourhood of "Kilmarnock South Central and Caprington" with 50 cases over the last 7 days, leading to a 7day/100k rate of 2,855.

 

The Clackmannanshire figures show Alloa South and East with the highest incidence.  18 cases in the last 7 days and a 7day/100k rate of 405.

Correction:

 

Further to the case count in Kilmarnock, the number of cases over the most recent 7 day period was 80, and not 50 as I had typed incorrectly. It has increased rapidly over the last week, and may have further to go.

7 days ending:

5 Feb - 10

6 Feb - 11

7 Feb - 16

8 Feb - 38

9 Feb - 80

75-79 now at 92% - 5% increase on yesterday

70-74 now at 64% - 10% increase on yesterday.

 

So still on track to get a v.high %age of first dose vaccinated in the key cohort groups with 4 days to go.

 

As at 8:30am on Friday 12 February:

  • 1,113,625 people have received the first dose of the Covid vaccination and 13,566 have received their second dose
  • 30,027 care home residents (exceeding the initial target for residents in older adult care homes and 94% of residents in all care homes)
  • 40,791 care home staff (91% of staff in older adult care homes and 78% of staff in all care homes)
  • 244,374 people aged 80 or over living in the community (98%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately
  • 279,718 frontline health and social care workers exceeding the initial target of 230,000 staff provided by Health Boards.
  • 175,425 people aged 75-79 living in the community (92%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately
  • 178,543 people aged 70-74 living in the community (64%) – this excludes care home residents who are reported separately.  

A third of 70-74 to do with 4 days to go including a weekend seems challenging. Begs the question on where the daily  60,000 plus Vaccinations went given virtually all the older groups already done.  Hope I am missing something

Of today's numbers:

 

Care homes - 59

Care home staff - 79

Over 80s - 1,856

Frontline health and care - 1,543

75-79 - 10,183

70-74 - 24,191

Others - 24,980

 

The others will include some in the 65-69 bracket as well as a proportion of the 110,000 in the clinically vulnerable group who are also due to be done by 15 February. No separate numbers have been published for those groups to date.

Increase over last 4 days has been 8%,8%, 9%, 10%.

 

If this continues we will get v. close when figures announced Tuesday morning.

 

If I've got my calculations correct 247k 1st doses since Monday and split

8k - 80s+

4k - Health and social care workers

47k - 75-79

98k - 70-74

 

So 90k into other folks arms that will be made up primarily of the next cohort of 64-69 year olds, although I do know a couple of 'shielders' under that age having been done too.

Wales the first UK nation to hit first dose offer target for top 4 cohorts by 15 Feb.

 

87k folk still to be vaccinated.  Did 31k yesterday.

 

I think slightly different colour for over 80s and care homes is due to the aspirational target date to have these done was 05 Feb.

 

Scotland is at 98% and 99.8% in comparison.

 

92 & 64 for the other two.

The 80s+ for Scotland is wrong.*

 

As at 07 Feb (close) we had done 236,763 (95%)

 

Yesterday 244,374, 98%.

 

*TTs calculation at 91% would be wrong anyway based on a target of 250k for 80s+.

I just don't think that kind of stuff is a good fit for you pal, that's all. You've got the 'barmy libertarian' thing almost perfected now, leave this type of non-humour to the creepy wee Star Wars hard nut. 😊

Thanks for the advice pal, but I can do the comedy routine in tandem with the free thinking libertarian act. Out totalitarian leaders need to be careful though, even the East Germans eventually turned against the Stasi. I'll bet you've got a Tartan Trabant parked on the drive😎

Got my vaccination appointment message, I'm down for Pitlochry on Sunday . As long as I can dig my car out the drive should be fine!

 

I'm 64 but might be in the vulnerable group having had a heart op a few years back (I get the flu jab already). Met a few others in the village also going to Pitlochry on Sunday so might be an element of scaling up Sunday which previously has been a much lower day

All 4 nations are doing great in their own way.

 

Our take up levels of getting first doses into arms when you get to the key cohort target date (and a few days beyond) has been exceptional.


A lot of appointments up here are being cancelled by people as they can’t get out to attend.

mmm - not sure that's the recommended approach, though it sounds good.....

 

I'm just glad the games today rather than tomorrow as I'd have to try and get a lift on Sunday otherwise (the alternative of not drinking while watching the game not being  viable)

Good news Scott. The programme has now picked up pace and they're getting good numbers vaccinated.

people talking of confirmation bias and then exhibit that very thing (not you brew - that I’ve noticed anyway)

 

 

 

im going to try to not do that - just put forward an alternative view

 

the likes of (my hero) heneghan wanted the government to consider opinions and proposed solutions from a broader range of scientists - that in theory sounds like a good thing to me

 

if mr heneghan has got this one sadly wrong no-one should be surprised or shocked - with issues of such complexity it is understood that no individual or single group (see point above) will have all the right answers all the time - that’s largely why consultation and peer review exists - so interpretation of supposed mistakes as defining moments can betray a lack of understanding of the processes involved

 

he appears to have been able to ‘sell’ his wrong idea better than the others could ‘sell’ their right idea so complicit in the eff-up are boris and his experts plus the real experts who as part of “the science” couldn’t ‘sell’ the right answer

 

mr heneghan and his fellow experts appear to be more concerned with the picture including covid not just a picture of covid - that includes globally and a time horizon of greater than a few months - so judging them over a short-period of time on pretty much covid only while everyone’s free to do it again betrays a bit of lack understanding of their intentions (for good or bad)

 

he also proposed a lockdown at Christmas - my interpretation of his interview was that he feared punters will not follow restrictions for a long period of time and he predicted things would go seriously tits-up in jan so suggested limiting the time of lockdown but locking down hard at the point of most effect ie december

 

coming out of lockdown is a function of going into lockdown (unless we you stay locked down forever - who knows) - lives saved during lockdown and lives lost on the way out they all need counted

 

 

 

Sorry, I would have put a trigger warning on my post if I'd known Heneghan was your hero, but you insisted on keeping that a closely guarded secret.

Until now. 😉 

Anyway my main point was that he'd had access to the very top of government, and apparently influenced policy, so hardly sidelined. 

Another discussion about the second wave/seasonal resurgence isn't something I want to get into again.

no need to apologise the “hero” stuff was for your benefit mate - glad u enjoyed it :)

 

yes your main point was as you say, you made a couple of other points too to which I put forward an alternative view
