A 108-year-old lady in Milan was vaccinated yesterday - she's already had Covid and recovered! She's probably the oldest person in the world to date to be vaccinated.
You'll probably find this useful. Running total of how many people have been vaccinated in Italy and how many of different vaccines have been delivered.A 108-year-old lady in Milan was vaccinated yesterday - she's already had Covid and recovered!

Thanks! It's filtered down to our little village, as I mentioned the other day - all the care home staff and residents have been vaccinated. I was very pleased to see that the vaccine was getting to every small community.You'll probably find this useful.

6k so far have had both doses. New administrations will be slowed a little so nobody misses the second dose.
I’m sorry you feel that way.I see Patel has come out and said they should've closed the borders early last year. Not really unexpected coming from her but about the first time I've seen a cabinet minister admit a mistake.

Some think that they will outright use them to insert chips into people while the vast majority think that they have not been tested enough and that at least 10-20 years need to pass in order to be really sure.How come?
Interesting. I guess you always think of the US and the UK when it comes to misinformation but not really to much about European countries, especially Eastern Europe. I find it baffling that enough people think there will be a chip in it for the line to be skipped all the way to 30 year olds. Do they not realise they already literally carry a chip with them everywhere they go? Let alone the hundreds of other reasons why that is nonsense.Some think that they will outright use them to insert chips into people while the vast majority think that they have not been tested enough and that at least 10-20 years need to pass in order to be really sure.
This has been discussed in this thread, @Sarni said that the situation in Poland is similar. Generally, there is a lot of vaccine resistance in the Eastern countries.
I am originally from Moldova and have several relatives and old friends on facebook. The amount of misinformation and fake news that is passed as 100% truth is mind boggling.Interesting.

The US and UK are actually less vaccine sceptical than nearly every European nation.Interesting.

What happened in the Autumn?It's nightmarish in Portugal. Terrible negligence of the government in relation to Christmas and New Year.. We're close to topping the charts in deaths per million. Or actually top according to some sources.
Its pretty insane the amount of wasted vaccine. 1 vial of the Pfizer BNT162b2 RNA has 0.45 mL in it, we dilute it with 1.8 mL NaCl which is 2.25 mL together and 0.3 mL is given so if drawn up carefully thats theoretically 7.5 doses. After careful practice I've easily been getting 7 doses.Not great news coming out of Israel about delaying second dose of Pfizer vaccine.
Yeah imagine that in The NetherlandsCurfew in The Netherlands from 8:30pm - 4:30am.
The conspiracy nuts are saying we are back in 1940 and we will be forced to all wear the same clothes and wear gps bracelets soon.
Fecking snowflakes.
The cnut with the 88 shirt isnt fooling anyone, fecking nazi.Yeah imagine that in The Netherlands
Must be a bad year to win the Euros. All merch wastefull.The cnut with the 88 shirt isnt fooling anyone, fecking nazi.
You had GPS bracelets in the 1940s?!?Curfew in The Netherlands from 8:30pm - 4:30am.

Autumn was expected I guess, reopening of schools, people slowly returning to half-normalcy as usual. It's the last two weeks increase that has been absolutely insane. People became overconfident in Christmas, government fed it too, by imposing restrictions in November precisely with the goal of not needing them so tight in Christmas, kind of like a "reward"What happened in the Autumn?
Of course we did, we're like a cheap, ill-mannered Wakanda.You had GPS bracelets in the 1940s?!?
Precisely what happened in Ireland. With the UK variant super-charging our cluster-feck. From a handful of cases to 70% dominant in about three weeks. Are you screening for the variant? Might be a factor too?Autumn was expected I guess, reopening of schools, people slowly returning to half-normalcy as usual. It's tge last two weeks increase that has been absolutely insane.

Absolutely insane decision, even if most people did nothing particularly unusual, the concentration of festivities in a week was bound to lead to disaster.
Only a matter of time before we hit 100,000 death. Atrocious handling by the Government.UK with another new record day:
38,905 new cases
1820 deaths
Really quite hard to overstate how badly the virus has been handled at this point.
I can't believe there's been barely any calls for them to go. I just can't believe it, they're beyond a joke.Only a matter of time before we hit 100,000 death. Atrocious handling by the Government.
It doesn't help when they have essentially been operating against zero opposition the last few years.I can't believe there's been barely any calls for them to go. I just can't believe it, they're beyond a joke.
Thanks for sharing, feels good reading something positive for a change.Just got back from taking the old lady next door for her vaccine. What an emotional experience.
We went to the Derby Velodrome and there were hundreds of elderly people, some, like my neighbour were in wheelchairs, some with frames, and others just standing and queueing patiently.
The army of volunteers, helpers and NHS workers were so brilliant and i found the whole massive operation so humbling that I was feeling genuinely emotional. It was the most people I’ve been around for nearly a year and I couldn’t help but feel that all of their lives were facing similar challenges as the lady next door.
Whatever shambles our government has been and however many idiots there are out there, I couldn’t help but marvel at the size of this operation and feel like I was amongst the good people, the patient and the helpful. Really got to me and a lady pushing another wheelchair next to me was trying to talk to me and could see my lip wobbling.
It all restored my faith a little.
Virus gonna virus.
Agree, it’s an absolute joke, makes me so angry.I can't believe there's been barely any calls for them to go. I just can't believe it, they're beyond a joke.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...Covid-8-9-England-coronavirus-antibodies.htmlIs there an estimate for how many people in the UK have had Covid? Not the official case number as mass testing started half way through.
Yes, estimated 30 thousand cases of it, becoming dominant fast.Precisely what happened in Ireland. With the UK variant super-charging our cluster-feck. From a handful of cases to 70% dominant in about three weeks. Are you screening for the variant? Might be a factor too?
Fecking thing is a nightmare. Full lockdown here for three weeks now and the initial decline is flattening out with a caseload that is still way too high. Where do we go from here?!Yes, estimated 30 thousand cases of it, becoming dominant fast.
