Fizzling out way too quickly. Must be quite a lot of 18-30s not coming forward so far?

some hesitancy for sure. But tbh, i think the current vaccination process is getting towards the end

I think one of the problems is that it's mostly the 18 - 30s catching covid now which then means they can't be vaccinated for a month (I think it's a month). My daughter and her boyfriend both caught it a few weeks ago and they were due to be vaccinated the following day 😭

Sage says next peak in deaths almost certain to be 'considerably smaller' than in January

And here is a chart from another document just released from Sage. The document summarises the results of the three modelling exercises conducted for Sage (by Warwick University, Imperial College London and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) looking at what might happen to case numbers, hospitalisations and deaths after 19 July.

The report says “the next peak in deaths will almost certainly be considerably smaller than that of January 2021”.

In January deaths peaked at 1,359, by date of death.

SAGE also recommends cracking on with July 19th

They'll still be positively contributing to our case numbers over that month - you'd imagine they won't be reinfected that quick  - the only thing it affects is vaccine numbers which are only part of the picture

The question just now was key, 'What do you expect people to do from next week?'

Johnson hasn't really got a clue, he's proper muddled things now.

We need to go slow and steady apparently

We should wear face masks in crowded setting but they don't want to put the measures in place that will mean more will do that. Cracking job Johnson.

I don't understand what that allegedly equates to in real life. Are any restrictions remaining?

That was what the reporter was getting at, sadly Johnson couldn't clear anything up.

I wonder what places like the Odeon etc do off the back of this?

Do they just leave up to the responsibility of Joe public ? Ask for certification or cram everyone in with masks ?

That pretty much says implement it willingly or we'll make it mandatory

    • sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.
    • Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.
    • I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…
    • Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
