Matt Hancock was just rambling awkwardly at the end of that answer. He can be humorous at times.

Yeah, he quite often looks like he's trying not to laugh, like that time he looked like he was doing an impression of someone crying having read how to in his instruction manual

At the end he gave off his best evil smile impression going.

Covid linked to risk of mental illness and brain disorder, study suggests

They're now saying the quarantine won't be introduced for 3 weeks.  In the past that's been government speak for 5 weeks.

Maybe in hindsight, they could have started 'looking at' this measure at some point within the last 9 months?

EU propaganda due to being peed off at their treatment by AZ perhaps?

Irresponsible in the extreme for the journalists to report that and not quote any form of study, just 'government sources'.

You do realise that's just a German newspaper and a very serious one at that?

They're not 'the EU'.

I think this goes to show the importance of following the rules still even after the 1st dose of a vaccine:

They are trying to protect the maximum hours an employer can force an employee to work.

https://www.gov.uk/maximum-weekly-working-hours

You can’t work more than 48 hours a week on average - normally averaged over 17 weeks. This law is sometimes called the ‘working time directive’ or ‘working time regulations’

I guess there's one place where extensive trials are being carried out on the efficacy for the over 65s for the AZ vaccine - the UK.

Remember, zero of the AZ participants were hospitalised after a single dose.

Wish I'd not seen this... was hoping the Handelsblatt might be the germans version of the Daily Mail but sadly not. Do we know what proportion of UK vaccines administered so far have been the AZ vaccine?

Any idea how many they'd expect it to be if they were unvaccinated? Sounds great though!!
