I think it's fine to be sceptical about the safety of these vaccines considering how quickly they've been produced.

Of course it is when it's based on facts (or even lack of facts) - but it's a problem is that too often bullshit and scare stories get mixed in.

I remember that a few days after the first trial of the Oxford vaccine started, some arsewpe on Twitter or wherever started falsely claiming that the first recipient had died and it got a repeated loads before a correction was put out. There's probably people out there that still believe it happened and will base their decisions on that.

LETS GO DOWN TO THE FOOTIE

 

 

 

I assume any of these events either outdoors or indoors still needs people to be seated?

Surely we aren't going head first in to music gigs with pits and so on...

The South East, which is where I live currently have the highest rates in England at 631.7 cases per 100k.

Bugger. Really? 

I live just down the road from you - Rustington, work in Arundel and used to work/live in Worthing.

Yeah, public need reassuring somehow....although I'm sure most will take it in the end.

I bet most of the anti-vaxxers will end up secretly taking it even, when they remember that people have died from it or put on ventilators.

For all their mouthyness, in my experience these sorts of people are cowards at heart and certainly don't have a problem with hypocrisy.

Yeah that’s from The Guardian.

Small world hey. I think Worthing itself has low numbers but in general it’s not good to hear we are the highest!

They're going to have to rename that surely!

Just Googled it to stick the date in my diary and they appear to be sticking with 2020! It's prob cos they still want to market it as the 60th anniversary (it's why they are hosting it all over Europe this time - they really timed that well!).

I've heard it's also that all the branding has been sorted (all the memorabilia/tat as well no doubt) so don't want to sort all of that again.

Primavera Sound announced their 20th anniversary for this year with the strapline "2020 Vision".

Turns out they didn't have any!

50% capacity indoors prior to a vaccine is mental surely?

Though admittedly I can't think of anything it applies to other than Basketball (Hockey decided to skip the season) so it'll be fairly tiny numbers overall.

Darts? That’s coming up next month.

I got free tickets to Ally Pally a few years ago so went along to see what all the hype is about. Slowly dawned on me that it really is just a load of people sitting around watching two men playing darts.

    • as if by magic... (but don't tell anyone that it isn't that easy to just cut welfare and that maybe taxes will have to go up)
    • Lost my love of football years ago so I pay very little attention to it these days but I'm really enjoying Max Rushden's video diaries of his flat share with Barry Glenddening. I think Barry might kill him before the end of the tournament
