I guess it's fair to assume PS and all comparable bands in size have also been rescheduled. What about the big ones? Who are we losing this time? I feel like strokes the national and massive attack will try to avkid skipping the chance to play ps as much as possible. If they don't play this kind of festival, then where are they going to play (coachella doesn't book strokes anymore)? The same could be true for tame impala. No idea about tyler. Ps looks like having developed a good relationship with him or his team over the years. And he doesn't seem to be playing very huge festivals such as coachella so it could be also in his interest to do ps... Anyway if tyler drops out they just need to fix any problem they have with bbk and give us kendrick 🤤 I'd be very sceptical of the Australia-based Tame Impala making it and frankly of any non-European acts. Would seem more sensible to focus on those with less complicated/expensive touring needs. Especially as the trend now seems to be towards ever more restricted border controls. Interesting on Bicep. They've added an extra date too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The festival isn't 'tomorrow' but likely to be in 7.5 months. And there are vaccines and testing methods available that weren't available last year. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virus won't disappear. When enough people are vaccinated governments just gradually will stop counting new infections. Well, actually they won't stop, but you will find than numbers only in special annual medical reports, just like other viral infections, and not on front pages of the newspapers.

burnleynotbarcelona Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 As you say, not set in stone.... Madrid suspends vaccinations for two weeks due to supply shortage Madrid health authorities have suspended vaccination against Covid-19 this week and next as they are running out of doses, Madrid’s deputy regional president Ignacio Aguado said on Wednesday. Reuters reports: The region has halted the vaccination of new people, keeping the few doses it still has to give second jab to patients, Aguado said. The Madrid region has already vaccinated 180,000 people since the campaign started, he said. “Unfortunately, as we suspected the pace of deliveries was interrupted,” he said. Spain has administered just over 1.3 million doses to a priority group of care-home residents and front-line medics, some 10% of whom have already received a second jab. During this first phase, the government plans to inoculate around 2.5 million people by the end of February. Spain reported 591 deaths on Tuesday, the highest daily fatality figure of the third wave, El pais reports, amid a plateuing rise in new infections. Tuesday’s number of new cases was 36,435, the same level seen a week ago and far from the 44,357 reported on Thursday, 21 January. The country’s official death toll now stands at 56,799, but excess death figures suggest the real number may be closer to 80,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if the reports about AstraZeneca being highly ineffective (only 8 % efficacy for people aged over 65) turns out to be true, the UK will have to vaccinate all elders, who already got the AstraZeneca jab, again.

Yesm, it does include that. And that Astrazeneca report looks like baloney (plus most people have got the Pfizer jab so far). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, my grandparents' (83 and 85 yo) dates for vaccination have been cancelled today (scheduled for March btw). I'm sorry for being pessimistic but I really don't know how we can reach herd immunity by October when this is happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puckno Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 A very interesting week ahead: we will know if EU will approve the Astra Zeneca and what they think about it, and the data from the Johnson & Johnson vaccine study will be published - a possible game changer.

There won't be really a huge difference between countries in EU because the vaccines are delivered to EU as a whole and they distribute them by population. It basically means no country can get ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckno Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) In large, yes, however both Germany, France and Denmark buy extra doses, or as they say: "purchasing extra doses from EU countries that didn't order their full allocation of the expensive jab".

Which really doesn't matter right now when nether Pfizer nor AstraZeneca have those extra doses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckno Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 I think the latest on the Pfizer vaccines is they are back to normal speed next week already. Some countries do only buy a modest amount of their eligible doses of the mRNA vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer, to be picked up by others. It amounts to more than 10 million vaccines to other countries.

JedTheHumanoid Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Madcool are teasing some announcement on 31/1. Assuming they are not teasing cancelation or postponement (their PR is crap, but not that much), do they really believe July can happen? Or just playing business as usual until the last day. Nice to see some activity anywhere though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puckno Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Yes, so it goes like this: - promoters unable to get a grip on the reality push for the government to tell them criteria for how to reopen, including all their fantasies on testing etc - government not willing to break the news to these bewildered souls, instead offering governmental guarantees on monetary compensation (35M eur) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
