Couldn't believe my ears watching the ITV news Robert Peston apparently quoting Whitty who is still advising grandparents who have had both jabs NOT to hug their grand children..." still a risk"...I honestly just give up. 

To be fair to Whitty he was asked the question at the WM briefing. He didn't give a direct answer, he just said that people under 50 won't be vaccinated so could have a greater chance of transmitting the virus.

It's absolute nonsense,  James. Hopefully,  the majority will ignore him. Life without "risks" is not a life.

I know Enzo but I just really annoyed me , I was in a positive optimistic mood till i heard this nonsense.

I think when he means " grandparents" i would think he means people over 50 surely ? Unless its a scheme in Glasgow

I think he means the grandkids who the grandparents will be hugging and are likely to be under 50.

Now I'm getting confused

So remember everyone (easy mistake to make), you can only meet outside with ONE other household.

 

 

[kila]

Unless you’re playing in a four ball with members who live within 5 miles of the club, then it can be four households

 

Not sure why there is a loop hole like that but if Swinney had just carried a set of golf clubs…

I think it's similar to opening the windows, the additional air disruption of swinging a golf club helps blow Covid away...🤨

 

The idea that Covid can just be blown away has me thinking of investing in one of these for when I get to the pub:

Something been puzzling me slightly the last few days. There have been numerous outbreaks in schools in West Lothian and some having to be closed. 
 

Why do other LA’s not seem to be having the same issue with schools?

 

My kids go to probably one of the largest schools in the city, which has nursery, junior and senior pupils all on the same campus. I’m struggling to think of even a couple of issues that impacted a tiny minority. 
 

Is it something to do with the increased community testing in West Lothian compared to Edinburgh? Is it just the school outbreaks have passed me by elsewhere. Just been lucky🤷🏻‍♂️

At the risk of sounding like Mr Trump the more testing the more you wull

find surely ?

Well that briefing was very underwhelming . Covid bingo words , top one mentioned again “ cautious “ nice to see she acknowledged that 99% of all deaths are in the over 50s and those with underlying health conditions .  Dearie me some arsehole “ journalist “ asking about the risks to “ young people “ with opening up !!

aye but she keeps battin on about not opening quicker as we can't risk the virus heading into a third wave like europe, there is no travel outside of the UK at the moment or at least minimal and she just confirmed that 99% of people in the priority groups account for all deaths from covid and the vast majority of those groups have now been vaccinated. i just think that some folk will get pissed off watching other parts of the UK opening quicker and guess what if there are spikes in positive cases down south she will use that to knock us back what's the betting

Your so right shot herself in the foot with the 99% stat which surely would argue why would younger people take the vaccine . The most at risk have as least had their first jab . Unfortunately you are right . She will wait and see what happens down south and she will basically be able to do Anyhing once her party gets back into power in May . 

[Jambof3tornado]

The travel restriction is pish. Look at hospital admissions now not cases. The vaccine is having an effect in reducing serious cases in those most vulnerable. Let us go see bloody family members in other areas ffs.

We’re not opening up until the over 50”s are jabbed up. So that why it’s the end of April. 
 

I don’t know because I haven’t compared but I doubt we will be all that much behind the rest of U.K. in terms of planned opening up, We’re following the same advice and whilst SG will be more ‘cautious’. It will be roughly the same time not least for reasons you highlight. 
 

I genuinely believe we are in the home straight here. Once the over 50’s jabbed the damage that can be done is much less and we will be rattling through at the same time. Despite talks of a needing a reverse gear I don’t imagine will be needed. 
 

Whilst the SG will be more cautious it’s really not in their interests to be too far behind in opening up for so many reasons.

 

We are and we're in front.  But some people are determined that we lowp off the track into the in-field and get a javelin straight through the back of the head.

I would have thought all over 50's with underlying health conditions would have been done by now. I know guys in there 40's who got it ages ago due to underlying health conditions.

Something seriously not right there. I know a few in low 50’s with no health issues who have been done or have an appointment to get it. Appalling considering of no shows and surplus end of day vaccines they have.

That's what I can't understand from our snp haters on here. They keep saying she is fronting the conferences to help her election prospects but also say she is pissing off voters by being too cautious. They will never ever accept that she is only doing what she and her advisors think is right for the country

I think I have talked about on this thread. He got invited to RHS the first day it opened for his jab. They could not administer it as he uses a epi pen. He was told he would be done in the hospital setting within next 7 days. 
 

Still waiting and contacted all and sundry to try and get resolved but no closer to be fixed. He’s just fallen between the cracks and that’s not the focus of the roll out scheme right now. He will get picked up at some point I guess. 
 

My old boy still works and has stupid contact with people. So it is a little bit concerning but if anyone was going to ktfo out of COVID he would.  He has taken the risk of COVID pretty seriously and has lost a massive amount of weight and exercises, eats well etc. So he has done everything in his power but he’s desperate for the jab and his frustrations are evident. 
 

 

They didn’t vaccinated him cause he uses an epi pen ? I don’t understand that ? Many diabetics or those with Arthritis use them and they are viewed as priority groups

The briefing was a bit surreal and Almost black mirror territory when Ms Sturgeon dropped Lennie Henry’s name !! 😂 on a serious note it was about him and others in the BAME community urging them to come forward to get the vaccine as apparently some / many don’t trust non BAME with any messages about the vaccine ? Interesting ? Made me actually think I have never seen a BAME person up on the podium at and briefings and I’ve watched a few

Scottish numbers: 30 March 2021

Summary

• 411 new cases of COVID-19 reported [+59; down from 495 a week ago]
• 17,468 new tests for COVID-19 that reported results – 2.8% of these were positive [+5,012; -0.4%]
• 12 new reported death(s) of people who have tested positive [+12]
• 23 people were in intensive care yesterday with recently confirmed COVID-19 [+1]
• 250 people were in hospital yesterday with recently confirmed COVID-19 [-9]
• 2,436,398 people have received the first dose of the Covid vaccination and 338,443 have received their second dose [+26,572; +12,180]

Over the Easter weekend (2-5 April), daily updates will be published to provide headline statistics on new cases, test positivity rate, deaths and vaccinations. There will be no updates to the remaining statistics. These will be updated on Tuesday 6 April – we will provide the latest detailed daily data for that day and the previous 4 days.

 

Redjambo note: The above indicates that we are going to experience another hole in the local authority cases 7-day figures as we did over the festive and New Year's periods. Just when we've got the Lothians figures back too. Life as a data monkey is never easy. Ook.

There are also some notes about today's case numbers by Health Board.

 

Today's Lothian figure is inflated by 31 historical cases from 29 January to 22 Marchy.  Greater Glasgow and Lanarkshire have also swapped a couple of cases. Western Isles hasn't submitted figures for a couple of days.
