Brumstopdogs Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Not UK related but still worth reading: https://www.npr.org/2021/07/16/1017002907/u-s-covid-deaths-are-rising-again-experts-call-it-a-pandemic-of-the-unvaccinated?t=1626528461371 Quote "There is a clear message that is coming through: This is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated," Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the CDC's director, said at a Friday briefing of the White House COVID-19 Response Team. "Our biggest concern is we are going to continue to see preventable cases, hospitalizations and sadly deaths among the unvaccinated." Quote "Unvaccinated Americans account for virtually all recent COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths," said Jeff Zients, the White House COVID-19 response coordinator. "Each COVID-19 death is tragic, and those happening now are even more tragic because they are preventable." More than 99% of recent deaths were among the unvaccinated, infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci said earlier this month on NBC's Meet the Press, while Walensky noted on Friday that unvaccinated people accounted for over 97% of hospitalizations. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 'd like to know the numbers that have been double vaccinated yet are still getting and spreading the virus. My feeling is its not offering much protection from contacting the virus but its doing a great job of stopping you getting severe symptoms. Its very high risk this allowing the virus to spread amongst us and relying on the vaccines to protect us and try and build up this herd immunity. My brother double jabbed (AZ) and never got it when wife (1 jab) and son had it. My daughters friend has passed it on to sister and mum (double jabbed, mild symptoms) but her dad (double jabbed AZ) has not got it yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted July 17, 2021 Moderator Share Posted July 17, 2021 On a lighter note. Javid was with Johnson when he felt ill on Friday night. Also rumours circulating that a good number of other miniters will have to self isolate for ten days and that could spread self-isolation through a good number of government departments too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 The cost of building materials have rocketed, so although wales want the wall built, it will be the English footing the bill per usual . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
