You still have to leave it 8 weeks between don’t you?

How would you go about proving you'd had two doses if you'd accidentally put the card they give you in the wash (twice)?

As others have said there is an NHS app which has the record on it but I think there can be a couple of weeks delay between having your second dose and it showing on the app.

Its clearly a vaccine passport app that we're now not going to use. Its holds you vaccine status and you can create a QR code to be scanned to allow entry to places. Wonder how much money we wasted on that having decided we needed a different system to everyone else and developing it before announcing we aren't going to use it.

42309 infections
49 deaths

wonder if any rethink will happen before 19th

still small numbers of deaths haven’t got hospitalisation figures

Number of hospitalisations has doubled in less than two weeks, if that keeps happening there is definitely trouble ahead.

Yeah, it is worrying and I really am hoping that rate of increase starts to slow soon. I think we’ve discussed before No 6 on the spreadsheet (Covid Inpatients) is a good indicator as this will hopefully show how close we are to NHS coming under increasing sustained pressure. Currently 3k. Over past 5 days it’s increasing by around an average of 150 per day, 5 days prior around 120, before that around 60 per day. This is suggesting there’s still a reasonably quick turnaround for most patients which maybe provides a small glimmer of hope…if I put my glass half full hat on !

There’s good and bad news on vaccines. The good news is 66%+ adults double jabbed and 87%+ adults single jabbed.

Bad news is I’m not sure that single jabbed number is going to get up much higher as first dose numbers have really tailed off now. Kind of expected as we know the younger you are, the less risk you will be from covid so many won’t see the benefit of taking the vaccine. Then throw in the anti-vaxers ! If we get 87-90% adults double jabbed I’d imagine that will be a fair bit higher than expected and probably higher than most other countries who have higher vaccine reticence

When you compare it to our flu vaccine rates, which are already one of the best, it’s an astounding achievement.

www.gov.uk

Flu vaccine uptake among over 65s highest on record

Over 80% of those aged 65 and over in England have received the flu vaccine so far this year – the highest uptake ever achieved.

87%-90% would be excellent really.

I think other countries have seen a 5 percentage point drop off first to second dose, and reticence was about 5% so 90% is a bit of a ceiling really.

Mrs. Wisdom's work had already decided the public areas would stick with masks, distancing, and appointments. Because of high transmission rates, they're also keeping those who haven't been called in at home for the foreseeable.

Her work are reasonably well-informed wrt evidence and data compared to most, and can make a decision more off the back of that than many about about what to do, if constrained by financial pressures at certain times of the year...

I'm hearing of so many people getting it now. I think the Euros was a big driver of the number of cases.
Really concerned about where this is going.

I said something similar the other day and was called a conspiracy theorist.

I've gone from knowing almost hardly anyone that has it, to several now. They have been jabbed too.

What age group is being most effected at the moment.

Is it the younger ?
Or mixed
Click to expand...

Can’t really tell from PHE website. Data not up to date and also they lump 18-54 year olds into one group ! Handy !

what’s interesting though, before the roll out that grouping had around the same daily hospitalisations as the 85+ group. The latest data (late June) shows 18-54s now have around 1.5 x hospitalisations of all the older age groups put together. Shows how much protection double jabs give. The additional positive being most in that younger age grouping should battle it off and make it out of hospital !

Think there is better/more detailed data released every Thursday/Friday

Been invited for my second tomorrow but it’s just 6 weeks after the first. Not complaining but surprised

I've had a couple of spells like this during the course of this pandemic, but I thought the vacinne roll out might have 5ook the edge of it this time.
Fingers crossed it doesn't translate in to serious cases and deaths though I'm nor hopeful .

I had my second jab a couple of weeks back, they did a first come first served clinic and fortunately I'm a minute away from the vax centre. That was a 5 week gap.

I thought they were stopping people until an 8 week gap minimum?

(Well, obviously not(!) but you know what I mean!)
