Having it in place across the board would, as sadj says have placed a huge financial burden on lots of places. How they get to the numbers is another matter. Of course, mate. I’ve tried to keep it in the context of football as that is why the thread was started. The hospitality situation moves into even more bonkers territory ! You could leave a heaving pub with 300 in it with no checks and have to provide a passport to go into a nightclub with the same number. Cuckoo !

Jambof3tornado Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I assume this wont force players to get vaccinated as they are at a place of work.

Alternatively you're wrong and it's moved that dial and is no longer 1 in 3. Is the vaccine meant to reduce the number of symptoms or the severity of the symptoms? I would say it's the latter so doesn't reduce the number with symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that'll be why they're struggling with defining a nightclub. On the football front I was meaning making it across the board would make it impossible for the diddy teams to operate.

I would say it's the latter so doesn't reduce the number with symptoms. 'How efficacious is the vaccine? The Pfizer BioNTech vaccine against COVID-19 has an efficacy of 95% against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection.' https://www.who.int/news-room/feature-stories/detail/who-can-take-the-pfizer-biontech-covid-19--vaccine My understanding is you catch and spread a virus and develop a disease. So I read the link above as the vaccine is 95% effective at preventing an infection with Sars-Cov 2 becoming symptomatic. Edit: the alternative of course is that it prevents you catching it rather than you catching it asymptomatically but I'm sure there would be a lot less cases if it was 95% effective at prevent you catching it and thus spreading it in the first place. The usage of Covid to mean the virus and/or the disease has confused me no amount since the start of this so happy (delighted in fact) if someone can clear the above up for me. I'd just find it utterly staggering if the existing vaccines hadn't increased the ratio of those catching the virus being asymptomatic. I'm staggered a lot though, so may very well be wrong.

You can moan and complain all ya want it really doesn't have to be difficult. the small number of people who havent access/cant use tech you need to devote a small amount of time too the rest can be done with scans either joined to your ticket or ST or with a separate scan before entering the area of the Turnstiles. Its such a simplistic thing to implement. For those who want to try and argue about Ticketmaster - I have never used them - we use Skiddle.

I havent said people will need to arrive earlier a lot of footie fans already have the attitude i can turn up at 2.55 and be in and seated for 3. Then blame the club that they aren’t. Out of 20000 how many will be non vaxxed in total and not in an exempt group. Wouldn’t imagine too many tbh. Implementing the passports alongside your ticket is the easiest way. Game 1 might be a pain in the arse if they dont pre-empt things by allowing you to link your ST but there is no excuse and no reason it should negatively impact times for getting into stadiums unless looking for a reason to object to this. Its in now its up to clubs and SPFL to ensure its implemented easily. 3weeks is a lot of time in the working world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
