France and Germany want our vaccines to sit in their fridges... maybe they should use their own stock first?

The cases appear to be stabilising in Manchester. It looks like the case "rises" may well have been down to the increased testing as much as anything else.

The weekly figures look a bit worrying, but the daily numbers are starting to look encouraging. More boroughs showing (admittedly modest) daily drops now. R appears to be just underneath 1.

It'll still be good to get a few more people jabbed before doing anything like opening the pubs. We're getting there 🙂

Stable rates 2 weeks after schools opening are great tbh.

It’s a fair assumption a big chunk of those cases are from other NHS workers.

Is it?

Israel flying. Really does show why there’s so much needle between nations around the vaccines! (pardon the pun!)

I wonder how long the anti Vaxers continue talking about the poison vaccine with numbers like this ? Will they all just end up taking it quietly and continuing the stance 😀

I'm sure there will be something about the data from Israel being fake or something. They will have something up their sleeve!

They already seem to be a bit quieter on the social media front. Every covid news article used to have about 50 anti vax comments a minute, seems to be slowing.

Very big numbers on that anti lockdown March yesterday but it did seem to be a mix of causes ,  but I guess that will ease off too from after next weekend when people can meet friends again outside

I still think they'll go for vaccine OR negative test plus quarantine. Wonder what the policy will be with regards to kids

Perhaps they’ll keep the doors shut entirely for holidaying outside the UK?

That tweet is deliberately misleading. It misses out part of the quote which I’ve taken from the guardian live feed just now:

‘It is highly unlikely we’ll be able to go on foreign holiday this side of May. We can’t be deaf and blind to what’s going on outside the United Kingdom.’

Gonna try to keep us muzzled for a while longer.

It does feel like the zero covid nutters are trying their best to keep us locked up and with muzzles for as long as possible 'just in case'.

If they attempt to keep these ridiculous restrictions in place with a vaccinated population then I would imagine this will become highly political and we know from Brexit that the people will kick back when tested.

Yeah. weve vaccinated 50% of the population FFS. We should be talking about how t reduce restrictions, nt how long we can keep them going 'just in case'

Considering we didn't have to wear masks until the summer and this thing spread like crazy anyway it amazes me we are still expected to go along with the concept they make any difference.
