I don't know whether they have had one jab or two. Hopeful? I spoke to the Director of Public Health for a major Metropolitan Borough a few weeks ago, he told me that they had vaccinated around 160,000 people so far on an 80/20 AZ/Pfizer split, and that not one of the group had been hospitalised with either Covid or side effects.

Guest makapaka Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Maybe all these mutations will ultimately lead to it becoming less dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't actually. It's just all these 10 of thousands of people who have died from a new virus over the past year and a bit. You might have read about it. Or not....

Baron99 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) Given that increased numbers are being allowed at the Crucible for the snooker; supporters are being allowed in their thousands back at football & there will be 4,000 allowed at the Brit Awards, isn't it time to allow a few more mourners, above the current 30 people limit, (especially those family members who are missing out), at funerals? The review of the numbers at funerals isn't due to take place until June. Edited April 23, 2021 by Baron99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The review of the numbers at funerals isn't due to take place until June. For the same reason, isn't it time that pubs were allowed people indoors, before even more of them go to the wall? The hospitality sector has long been calling for this. At present, the date given for this being reviewed is mid-May (and some are suggesting that this is subject to Covid testing and/or passports, despite opposition).

Sort of get your point but for balance all those events are pilot events to see how it can be done. it’s not like you can just go to hillsborough or bramall lane to watch the football when you like but can’t go to a funeral.
