Required vaccination rate... love it. It’s like going in to bat 2nd at the cricket 😂

I was being lazy and just looked myself... NI was about 12.5k in yesterday's stat so on the basis they've managed to upscale a bit let's hope they've hit 15k doses administered yesterday. Think we'll be very close to the 325k mark!

What were the NI numbers for yesterday?

Bit giddy in here this afternoon isn't it? Has anyone else imagined the joyous scenes at the efests meet at THIS year's festival or is it just me?

Are we expecting a slight lull over the weekend or will we continue this growth? 500k by the end of next week?!

Boom!

But he added: It begins... 😀

Blooming scientists causing unnecessary panic...

Yep. What numbers do people think in terms of vaccinations today? 350k?

@Ozanne where's your handy little graph where we can see the ramping up? 😉

On the offices front what needs to be considered is there are staff within every company who cannot work from home for a variety of reasons ranging from space available, privacy (depending on work type) and mental health. I'm not making an excuse for those companies who are forcing staff to come in however I know of many companies who have asked staff to work from home but with the safety net of the office is available if for any reason the member of staff feels they are unable to.

Perhaps i'm in the minority here then 😂

I don't know of anyone who gets petrol just because they like the feel of the pump in their hands...

Are we honestly begrudging people getting a pastie or a cake now? In regards to getting petrol this is a bit of a mute point because if you need petrol you need it, whether you get it on your way to work or collecting something from a click and collect you're still visiting the petrol station?

You might even completely dodge infection like my Wife did. We were a bit careful in terms of me sleeping in the spare bedroom but apart from that nothing really changed yet she somehow (unless of course asymptomatic) avoided catching it!
